WELL-FED TREES.
They Come Into Bearing Later, But
Last Longer Than Those Underfed.

II is a matter OF common observa-
ton that fruit trees on thin soils come
into bearing early. exhibit a strong
tendency toward fruitfulness, for a
comparatively short time, and die. and
that trees on good, strong land come
Into bearing as a rule somewhat later,
grow TO much greater size. and live
for very much greater number of
years. says II. ]. Waters. director of
the Wisconsin experiment station It
is safe to say that well fed trees may
have more than double the number OF
productive years than those which are
underfed usually have.
The fact Is strikingly shown by the
results OF an experiment conducted by
the New Jersey experiment station
with peaches. In which IL was OBJ
served that on the unmanured land
the crops secured at the end OF eight
years were so small as 70 very mate
rally reduce the average for the
whole productive period. while in the
case OF the manured land the average
for the entire period was not only not
reduced. but very materially increased.
Thus. the crops secured from the ma
nured trees. after those receiving no
manure had practically ceased to bear,
were greater proportionately than
those secured previous To that time.
Thss is TO say. that the properly fed
trees were at their very height OF pro-
ductiveuess at the time when the un-
MANFRED trees had practically ceased
to bear.
