of sub-tropical appearance. While
they develop most rapidly upon rich
loan soil, such as is commonly known
as black walnut land, they thrive un-
der almost any condition, provided
there is a fair amount of plant food
and moisture in the soil.
The trees come into bearing when
planted three or four years. and from
that time bear continuously, If given
good care. The nuts are produced in
large panicled clusters and somewhat
resemble the common butternut, OF
white walnut, except that they are
slightly smaller and more nearly
ovate in form. They crack very read
lily and the kernels are easily removed
from the shells. They lack the strong
favor of the butternut, and on thi:
account would be preferred by mos

subsolIina in Orchards.

The advice is given to subsoil or
chards before the trees are set This
may sometimes pay, but generally it
will not. The theories in favor of 1t
are not carried out by actual expert
ence. Whether or not subsoiling viii
pay is a matter that will depend on
the character of the soil. If the soil
is very compact below the line touch
ed by ordinary plowing, subsoiling
should be very beneficial. 1t is impos-
sibIe to establish q rule that can be
applied to all soils, and most orchard
soils do not seem to return a profit
on the labor of subsoiling. The roots
of the trees have great penetrating
power and will dip deep in ordinary
soils IL they find plant food by sc
doing.
