THE FRUIT CROP.
Some Ideas Worth Putting Into Prac-

Some Ideas Worth Putting Into Prac-
tice Next Season.
1t is a mistake to suppose that fruit
bearing plants will do their best II
they receive attention only now and
then. Irregular care will not amount to
much. Moreover, the cultivator should,
as soon as the bearing season Is over,
begin to consider what may be done
to induce a better crop next year.
Many old plantations of raspberries
and blackberries that are filed with
dead canes and weeds can be so re-
newed and renovated that they will
bear an abundance of fine fruit. To
keep berry patch in the highest state
of productiveness the old canes should
be removed after fruiting and the
young growth of small canes properly
pruned out and thinned in the row. J
this is neglected next year you will
have small crop of inferior berries,
good neither to eat nor to sell.
Blackberries and the red or sucker
varieties of raspberries require similar
culture. In May begin to cultivate and
to thin plants in the row Blackber-
ries should be thinned so the plants
will stand at an average distance of
