KEELING IN TREES.
Method cf Caring for Nursery Stock
Until Planted In Spring.

A word about heeling In trees at
this time will doubtless be Of benefit
to some of our readers. Where fall
delivery of nursery stock is received,
1t is probably best to heel the trees
In rather than to set them out in their
permanent location. The setting en-
usually be more satisfactorily done in
the spring. John B. Katzner. sue
cessful fruit grower OF Minnesota, Of
fers the following advice on the sub
ject:
consider IL very important that
you buy and order all fruit trees to be
delivered in the fall. There Is more
time all around for the nurseryman
Of the year, and you can take care Of
the stock just as well, If not better,
than the nurseryman can by heeling
In your stock over winter. For this
work select place where the water
does not accumulate. When you get
notice that the stock has been shipped,
dig hole the length of the trees, a
few inches deep, for the tops of the
trees. slanting down to the north to
about two feet for the roots, and wide
enough so that all the trees can be
placed In the trench without crowding
them too much. For hundred trees
q hole six feet wide is about right.
When the trees arrive. unpack at
once, prune the roots slanting-so that
the tree will stand on the cut part of
the root when planted, to insure a
downward growth of the new roots.
Cut off all broken parts of the roots.
Now place the trees in the hole
which ought to be a little deeper Just
where the roots come so that they will
not be injured. When you have put
in about five or six trees, throw
little dirt on between the roots. Above
the first tier of trees you can place
one or two more. When all the trees
are In the hole. shovel some more
earth on the roots till all are we'll
covered. Now place a board on the
ground over the roots and similar
boards across the stems and branches,
so that the trees are entirely covered.
A few short stakes under the boards
will keep too great pressure off from
the trees. Fill up the hole with dirt,
make mound little higher than the
surface to let the water flow of and
then put on mulch about foot
deep when the ground freezes up. The
trees are covered with boards so that
they shall not be injured by the SHOW
el when they are taken out in the
spring.
The stock Is now we'll heeled in and
will come out OF its winter quarters
full Of sap and vigor, ready to start
into active growth at once. 1t Is my
experience, running back over the last
Is years. that trees so handled will
not fail to make a growth Of from six
inches to three feet the first season.
II you compare the growth Of these
trees with spring delivered trees, II
you think Of the consequent success In
the one case and the frequent failure
Of the other, the great advantage of
fall delivery stock will be evident to
you. Another advantage of fall de.
livery which We must not lose
sight of 10 that we have our trees on
hand in spring to plant whenever we
are ready.

To Get Rid Of Maple Worms.

County Superintendent Of Schools
A. L. Ives was inter viewed by q
TIMES reporter the first Of the week,
relative to the possibility Of q prac.
teal manner Of discriminating the
little green worms which haveior the
pastiew years infested tine maple trees
Of this city. These worms are Matched
early In the spring from eggs Of a
white moth, and Immediately attack
the soft maple trees, completely de-
vsstating them q leaves In q lew
weeks.
Prof. Ives says that these worms
may be starved to death by keeping
them away from these maple leaves,
which seem to constitute the main
article Of food, which may be done
BY wrapping roll Of rev wool or
cotton about four inches In diameter
about the body Of the tree. The con-
struction Of the legs Of the worm
makes II almost impossible for them
