The Maturity Of the Apple.

Some OF our horticulturists are max.
ing n difference between tho mature
apple and the ripe apple, though the
general public recognizes no such de-
stlnction. We will let our hortcul.
tural friends have their way. however.
The apple Is mature when IL has az.
tanned It's full growth. II Is not ripe
till II has become mellow with the
operations OF sunlight, heat and time,
The mature apple is In the best shape
for picking. II II be left on the tree
till II is fully ripe II will be a short
keeper while II It is picked at tho
time OF maturity Il will keep for a long
time even under usual farm conditions.
AS different varieties or apples mature
AZ different times It will easily be seen
that the mixed orchard is a hard one
10 keep track or The old way OF
harvesting was 10 begin 10 pick tho
apples on certain date and then take
all as they came. the long keepers and
the short keepers, the mature apples
and the immature apples.
The mature apple is thing we have
TO get acquainted with II we nre TO
know when II is mature. II II is a
Ben Davis. II is mature very late. SO
late indeed that in the vicinity OF
Wisconsin II generally has TO be pick
cd before Il is mature. This Is tho
reason the Ben Davis has lost its
reputation with many people. Having
been picked before II was mature Il
could not follow ont the usual process
SEES OF ripening. and was always a hard
poor favored apple. In regions where
il has had time 10 mature before be.
ing picked II develops into a fruit OF
good flavor and texture. rlpening nat
urally.
II takes n study OF fruits 10 know
when each one natures. and this Ia a
subject that has up TO the present time
received little attention. Men have
grown apples OF certain varieties for a
long time aud have never given the
question any consideration. The ma.
turity OF the apple Is at last coming
i'm for It's share OF discussion, and tho
light Is beginning to shine in a dark
place

Covering strawberry Beds.


Material should be laid aside for the
covering Of the strawberry bed. which
work should be accomplished as soon
as the ground is frozen hard enough 10
hold wagon. Caution should be used
against covering too early. Some seem
To have the impression that straw
berries are covered 20 protect them
from the cold. This Is not the case;
for II must be patent 10 every one that
six Inches OF straw or cornstalks will
not keep out very much cold. II a
thermometer were placed above the
straw and below II on a winter day the
two would be found 10 register about
or exactly the same. The covering
Is put on TO keep out the heat In late
fall and winter when the plants are
not covered with snow. The freezing
and thawlng OF the ground Is the
thing TO be guarded against.
IL the covering Is put on too early
the plants may be smothered and
killed. for growth is stlll going on and
evaporation is taking place from the
leaves. While this is the case, COW
ering would Kill the leaves in some
cases and In others would encourage
the growing on them OF mildewa.
When the leaves arc frozen later on Is
the time TO cover. Then all growth
Is arrested and the covering cannot
smother them. For the same reason
the straw must be removed quite early
in the spring before growth has set in.
II is not desirable 10 use for cover
It's any kind os material that packs
very closely. The keeping out OF the
air Is not desirable. but the protection
OF the ground from the direct rays OF
the sun. Coarse straw held down by
boards is good, and corn stalks are
also used. Sometimes II may be found
advisable TO use a little straw be.
low and cornstalks above, the latter
holding the straw from blowing.
AS TO the adylsabillty OF covering
there is a dispute. but II is doubtless
true that the man that covers his
strawberries is sure OF crop Of Der.
ries the coming year; while the man
that does not cover Is not sure OF one.
We know OF people in the latitude OF
| Northern Illinois who never cover
their vines at all and usually get fair
crops, but we also know that on oc-
casional years their beds In the spring
are very sickly looking and the re-
sultant crop is small
Further north in the latitude OF Wis
consin, there can be no question OF the
adyisability Of covering II crop Is 10
be expected every year. The Oldest
growers there declare that they would
not try 10 grow strawberries without
covering. I'm fact a good many people
In past years gave up strawberry
growing there because they SO fire.
/ quently lost their beds in winter. But
since covering has become general
the result has been far otherwise
AS we 90 south the need for Gov
ering decreases but the practice in
each locality viii have TO depend on
experience. The locality that has for
a long time grown Strawberries with
out winter protection will continue q
grow them that way. But there arc
always localities whore the vines are
not covered but should be. II is som,
work 10 do the covering and for this
reason the growers are likely 20 take
the risk OF not covering II that risl
Is not too great. Where protection
is needed II pays to cover.
