which you measure is in the center of
the circle and there will be six tri-
angles with all their sides just % feet
long. One advantage besides the one
in setting the trees is that the ground
is more evenly occupied than where
the trees are in rows crossing each
other at right angles.
One of the questions that will need
to be answered is whether to plant
trees in the fall or spring. In very cold
climates where the ground freezes as
deep as the roots of the newly set
In most sections on the Pacific Coast
the ground does not freeze to any great
depth. Here 1 would just as soon set
trees in the fall as in the spring. In
these sections trees can be set any
time in the winter when the ground is
in good condition. In spring setting I
much prefer early setting. If a tree
is well established in it's new home
when the growing season comes on it
will start to growing sooner and make
a better growth that year than where
it is set late. Such a tree is apt to
make but little growth that year and
in some cases practically none at all.
The next year it may start early and
make a good growth, but it will in real
ity be IA year behind as the result of
late setting. Trees should never be
set when the ground is wet and mucky
Set only when the soil will pulverize
well. Tramp the loose earth we'll about
the roots, but do not tramp the last
earth put round the tree. That loose,
fine dirt will act as a mulch around
the tree.
Where irrigation is practiced. would
not irrigate the ground till after the
trees are set and would not be in too
much of a hurry about this first irri-
cation. The tree being firmly set in
the soil will not suffer for some time.
When warm weather comes on I would
run a furrow some two or three feet
from the row of trees and let the water
run slowly along in that for three or
four days till the ground is thoroughly
after the water is turned off I would
cultivate the ground so as to pulverize
the surface. In fact it is better to
cultivate the ground with some kind
of harrow so as to pulverize the sur
face after each irrigation. If this is
done the moisture will be conserved
and not nearly so much irrigation will
be needed. Where irrigation can not
is very important. Only in this way
can sufficient moisture be secured dur
ing dry spells that are likely to occur
in any country.
I would in all cases cut back tree
of whatever kind where I would have
the tree to head. I much prefer the
goblet shaped tree to the pyramidal
form. The reasons need not be given
here. During the first summer a good
deal can be done towards shaping the
young tree by rubbing off the young
shoots where a limb is not desired. The
first two or three years after tree is
set in the orchard is the time to give
it it's shape.
The readers of The Ranch know that

that feature of the Porter Bill now

where they will have wet feet"
The distance to plant trees apart in
the orchard is often the subject of in
quiry on the part of those who contem-
plate going into fruit raising. A COM
plete discussion of this matter can not
perience would lead me to recommend
not less than % feet apart in the rows
and not more than 80 feet apart. Some
of our best informed horticulturists
would recommend trees to be set from
80 to 40 feet apart in the rows. Others
again would plant their standard trees
from 40 to SO feet apart in the rows
and then plant filters. I would in no
case recommend the planting of filters.
Of course it is supposed that the grower
time, but there's the rub-he will not
do it, 1t takes lots of nerve to cut out
a tree that is yielding a profitable crop.
He will reason in this way: "The tree
bore me a good crop the past year and
seems to do no harm. I'll try it one
year longer" He is apt to keep up
that kind of reasoning till very seri-
Gus damage is done. Notwithstanding
all that has been said against the use
of filters, new beginners are very much
inclined to try the experiment. Ex-
perienced growers rarely recommend
the use of filters.
The distance apart to plant peach
pear, plum and cherry trees will not
vary much. From Is to 20 feet apart
in the rows may be given as about the
right distance for these fruits.
Another question of considerable i'm
portance is whether to have the rows
cross each other at right angles, or to
use what is known as the triangle
system" I prefer the latter. All my
trees are set on this triangle system
One thing decidedly in favor of this
the trees and keep the rows straight
Let me illustrate this: Suppose we
want to set an orchard rs feet apart on
this system. First get some thin boards
or bats half inch thick and three or
four inches wide. None will be found
25 feet long, but nail two of them
together so that their combined length
will be just % feet. Have two such
measuring boards. Set the first row on
the piece of ground to be planted in
a straight line, using one of these
boards to measure the distance be-
tween the trees. Be sure to sight along
this row and see that each tree is ex-
actly in line. This is all the sight
ing you need to do in setting the whole
piece of ground. Take this first row
as your base line and in setting the
second row place the end of one Of the
measuring boards against the first tree
and the end of the other board against
the second tree and then bring the two
ends together. They cannot meet, but
in one place. Set your tree where
these two ends meet Just repeat this
operation across the field and you will
see that your second row is just as
straight as the first row. Then use your
second row for a base line, and keep
that up till your whole piece of ground
is planted. You will find your rows
all straight and equally distant from
each other. You can go out into your
orchard and pick any tree and you can
measure to six trees just 25 feet from
this one in the center. 1t is a we'll
known proposition in geometry that a
circle has in it six equilateral and

DELEGATION GETS PROTEST.
Fl. 6erthoId Indians Fear They Won't
Get Justice in Opening.

Washington.-The North Dakota
congressional delegation is in receipt
Of protests against the proposed open
ing of the Fort Berthold Indian reser-
walton. 1t seems that the Indians
themselves are against the opening;
first, because they have got the i'm
preston that they are not to be con-
suited about the opening, and second
ly. because the 160-acre homestead al
lowed each Indian by the Hanna bill
will not be sufficient to meet the re-
quirements Of the red Inhabitants of
the reservation. "We need more land
in order to pasture our stock" say
the Indians, and it would seem that
the interior department concurs in
that opinion.
Representative Hanna, when in
formed Of the protests received from
North Dakota, said that it is not his
intention to deprive the inhabitants
of their land and that their interests
will be safeguarded in every way.
