FEEDING ORANGE TREES.
Growers Able by Proper Diet to Make
 Fruit Improve on Nature.

From the New York Sun.
 The biggest and best oranges are not grown on good soil. Fruit growers are finding out that they can improve on na. ture when 1t comes to feeding up a tree
 If they want to get the finest fruit they no longer pick out the rich, alluvial soils. Very fertile land produces citrus trees of rank growth which often bear enormous crops: but the finest and highest priced fruit grows on nearly sterile soil.
 This strange state of affairs is thus ex- plained: In fertile soils plant food is sell dom properly balanced. Neither is 1t present in just the right condition for producing the best fruit.
 For some reason. too. 1t isn't possible to influence fruit through the medium of a rich, fertile soil. It doesn't seem to be a good medium for chemical fertilizers, whereas a soil which is almost sterile makes the right base upon which to build up ideal conditions. Trees may be started in 1t and then fed with just such chemi- cal fertilizers. The old method produced coarse. thick skined oranges and often caused disease in the trees The Depart ment of Agriculture, in strongly advising the use of chemicals. gives the following definite rules:
 To obtain fruit with thin rind. use nitrogen from inorganic sources in mod crate quantities. with considerable pot ash and lime To sweeten. the fruit. use sGlphate of ammonia in considerable abundance, decreasing the amount of potash. To render the fruit more acid, increase the amount of potash and use nitrogen from organic sources.
 > If il Is desired to increase the size of the fruit apply comparatively heavy dres- sing of nitrogen in some organic form and slightly decrease the other clements.
 Die back, a serious malady. Is in all probability the result of overfeeding with
