Size Of an Orchard.
CThe American Cultivator.)

(The American Cultivator.)
1t is almost as difficult and expen-
slve to care for five acres of orchard
trees as 1t is for ten, and it is mis-
placed energy to attempt to plant
orchards too small to occupy ones
full time. AS q good deal of modern
orcharding expense consists in the
labor of spraying and fighting insects
1t will pay better to have an orchard
large enough to warrant one In pur-
chasing the necessary apparatus to
spray properly. A large orchard al
so tends to protect itself against the
winds, and in winter and summer
there may be considerable saving
from this. The trees on the outside
nearly always produce less than
those inside.
If one is going to have an apple or
other fruit orchard it is just as well
to have a fine one as an ordinary
kind. The latter will not cost much
more In the end, and it will prove
profitable, while the former will not.
Plant trees of well-known marketa-
BILE varieties and get good specimens
from reliable dealers. Spray them
every season and protect them from
pests of all kinds. Do not let them
injure themselves by bearing heavi.
ly the first few years. Pluck off the
blossoms or fruit, so that no limb or
branch will be strained. Over-pro-
duction at an early age is deadly to
good tree. Each year set out new
trees IN the place of any that may
be injured or killed. Do not have a
ragged orchard, but try to make
every tree come up to the standard.
This can be easily done if one has
ordinary intelligence and will give
the time to the work. Use only
hOed crops at first in the apple or
chard. Wheat, oats and timothy
are bad for the trees. They take too
much from the soil, but hoed crops,
seeding the land to clover or cow
peas every few years will produce
excellent results.

The Culture Of strawberries.

For the culture of strawberries,
put the ground in the best condition
with pillow and harrow, and procure
your plants for planting when the
stem shows the future bloom. Any
ordinary good soil will grow straw
berries. The plants should be plac-
ed in water with sufficient water to
cover the roots. A good plan is to
make the rows by a line, as the
straIghter you make them the easier
you will find the work of cultivatlng
the strawberries. Pick off all buds
or blossoms, spread the roots out,
water, and make the soil firm
around the plants. The crown of the
plant should be very little below the
surface when planted. Two crops
are all that are profitable to grow
from one planting. Cover the plants
in the fall with straw or leaves, to
prevent the thawing and freezing of
the fruit buds. When all danger
from frost Is over, rake the covering
from the plants and leave it between
the rows. There is no work con-
nected with strawberry culture after

Fowls are omnivorous eaters; that
is, they will eat nearly anything,
and it has been demonstrated that
food eaten by laying hens imparts
it's flavor to the eggs. A gentleman
noticed his hens eating freely of
onion tops that had been thrown
into the poultry yard. For several
days the eggs of those hens had
such a strong onion flavor as to be
unfit for use. Such food has been
found to impart its flavor in the
flesh also. 1t is important, there
fore, that fowls have access to none
but clean, good food. Filthy slops
should be kept out of their reach, as
should all decaying and unwhole-
some substances. Carcasses of dead
ANIMALS should never be permitted
to lie around where the fowls can
get to them. The flesh of fowls that
eat such stuff is not fit for food,
neither are the eggs laid by them.
