Trees in Poor Soil.

Among the numerous varieties Of
trees now in cultivation, there are
some that do better on poor soils than
on rich soils. On rich soils these
trees grow so rapidly and form so
much wood that it does not harden be-
fore winter comes. This is the case
with the European larch. This tree is
one of the most famous trees in Eu-
rope for the production of building
material. Larch wood is found in Er,-
ropean structures that are many cen
turtles old. The trees from which
those timbers were produced grew or
the tops of mountains in poor soil. 1t
was believed that the larch could be
made valuable tree for our western
prairies. Many thousands of trees
were planted in all sections of the
prairie states. The rich soil of the
prairies caused rapid growth, and
the wood produced lacked entirely the
quality of the European larch. The
tops of these trees frequently froze off
In winter, and the wood when used for
building material or for fence posts
quickly decayed. Our tree growers
have long since concluded that if the
larch is to be grown at all, it must be
grown on poor soils and under hard
conditions. What is true of the larch
is true of many other trees.-Milton
knight, Cherry Co., Neb., in Farmers
Review.
