Root-Pruned Pecan Trees.
Florida A0ricUIfurjsf

EditOr Florida AgricuHmist
AS the people of Florida, like those
of Texas. are taking great interest in
pecan culture | send you a photograph
of two pecan trees shown by me at
the recent nut convention in Dallas,
Texas. They were also planted by
me on the 2nd of last April, side by
side. and grown to show that the
orthodox method of setting pecan trees
with 30 inches or more of tap root in
holes. 30 inches square is an absurd
waste of labor and money. The long
rooted tree i'm the illustration was set
with about 80 inches of tap-root i'm a
hole that deep. The other had the
tap-rOOt cut back to inches and
was planted about 10 inches deep in
a hole made with stick. Notice how
it promptly went to work to re-es-
tablish itself on new tap roots, the
strongest of which was unfortunately
broken in digging. And see how plain
y the other tells the orthodox planter
that it has no use for secondhand tap
roots, discarding it entirely and emit
ting only surface laterals from about
6 inches under the ground. Trees
like the latter will become permanent
ly dwarfed while the former will make
just as vigorous growth as if it had
never been moved. OF course 1 do
not expect the orthodox horticultural
to believe this or even make the eX-
pertinent on single tree. The books
all tell him that long roots are absO-
luteIy essential to all trees when reset,
and he never questions the wisdom
of our ancestors but sticks to their
good old ways HI. NJ. StringfellOw.

Parcels Post.

The editor of the Rural New Yorker
says, i'm the last number of that paper,
that he has heard from number of
faint-hearted people, since the Post
master General falls down on parcels
post, that they expect that he will
quit talking about it. He replies that
he will talk all the harder. He closes
as follows: Quit? When Congress
gives us Il parcels post-nOt before"
We feel much the same way, it is
discouraging, of course, but IA good
general does not stop fighting because
things look unfavorable. He simply
gathers up his forces and lays his
plans for a new campaign. 1t is evil
dent that nothing will win but a
thorough education of the voters up 10
a realization of what a good parcels
post system would mean for them.

We devote a large space this week
to giving both sides of the question.
Two writer's take grounds against Mr..
Stringfellow's method, but on the
other hand we give some very favor
able reports. We are finally con-
WINGED that in many cases and on some
soils the new horticulture is an i'm
prOvement ON the old. Whether it
will suit you better than the old can
only be told by experiment. We ad-
wise all who are planting trees of any
kind to give this method a fair trial.
This week we print an article, sent
to us by Mr.. StringfeilOw, on planting
pecan trees. He speaks of photo

have room for few sentences only,
which. however. are sufficient to indi
cate the tenor of the whole article.
They read
Fumigation for nursery stock is now
little better than a farce. Practically
every large nursery has the facilities
for fumigatiOn, but most buyers pre-
fer not to have it done. We have
bought trees which We're so weakened
by fumigation that they were winter
killed. or dawdled on for several years
before recovering. In the orchard this
method has not given results which
commend it to practical men. A few
fruit growers may practice it still. but
10 one advocates it as il method ad-
apted to general use.
These are certainly very strong
views" especially when one stops to
think that there is no foundation for
them to rest upon. These editors are
two of Il kind. but not good to draw
to. That we may help them out of
darkness into light we recommend to
their careful perIISal an article in this
issue entitled california the Worlds
Garden
We call your attention to the article
of which he speaks, California the
Worlds Garden 1t will be found else
where this week.
The editor has no patience with
those who differ from him. Yet we
must still hold that the facts are not
proven to be as he claims. Certainly
a great many people are not yet con-
WINGED. even among the readers of
the Rural Californian. This is shown
by the advertisements.
Dealers do not advertise an article
that is not wanted. In the same paper
in which he printed the quotation
given above, there are two advertise
ments of spraying material, two of
cyanide of potassium for fumigatiOn
and two that offer both spraying ma
terial and cyanide. There are two
offers of tents for the fumigatiOn of
trees and one firm that offers to do
either spraying or fumigating. We
will rest our case on the evidence in
his own paper.

WEDNESDAY, JAN. 10, 1906.
Shall We Fumigate?

Elsewhere will be found this week,
an article about fumigatiOn. The
weight of evidence seems to be on the
side of fumigatiOn. Still we do not
expect that every one will see it in
the same light. But we advise all our
readers, who have to fight scale, white
fly, etc, to study up on the subject.
AS we said, i'm the article in the
paper of November %, the editor of
the Rural Californian is very strongly
i'm favor of fumigatiOn. SO much so
that he cannot speak patiently or pO-
litely of any one who does not agree
with him. He has read what we
said about spraying and fumigation
in the November paper, and takes off
his gloves and pinches into us as fol
lows:
The editor of the Florida Agri-
culturist says there is no doubt that
fumigatiOn has become very popular
in California within the past few
years, but whether it is the best way
of Subduing the insect enemies of cit
rus trees lis not fully decided by the
cultivatOrs of citrus fruits NOtwith-
standing the severe shock to our men
tai equilibrium this editor has given
for such denseness is truly uncommon
we have no feeling but that of SYM
pathy for him. He should, however,
be compelled to realize that he is far
behind the times. One important truth
he seems to have forgotten: that it
is equally as necessary for the teacher
to study as it is for his pupils. How
can he be Of value to the constituency
he is supposed to represent unless he
is informed upon questions affecting
the interests of hOrticulturists?
This Florida editor, having appar-
emily found a spirit cOngenial with his
own, further says: 1.-The editor of
the Rural New Yorker holds very
strong views on the subject of fumi-

date these very strong views" We

Fumigation VS.. Spraying.

In the Agriculturist of November %
we published an article from the Rural
New Yorker in which the editor took
strong grounds against fumigatiOn,
either of orchards or nursery stock.
Since then there have been several
items i'm the Rural New Yorker about
the spraying question. The writer's
do not agree with the editor, but gener-
ally favor fumigation. The first is by
Prof. Phillips, of Virginia.:
FUMIGATION OF NURSERY
STOCK.
My attention has just been called to
Il short article on page S12 in regard
to fumigatiOn of nursery stock. 1t is
true that fumigation of orchard trees
in the East has not given results that
would recommend it to the use of
practical men. The cost of tents. their
liability to being burned by the acid
used in fumigation, the difficulty of
gauging amounts correctly, the time
required to do the work, all operate
