FRUIT TREE
PLANTING POINTS
Should b Placed In Ground While
Dormant In Well Drained Soil
With Hole Large Enough
to Spread Roots.

(By PROF JOHN w. LLOYD. Illinois

l. When to plant fruit trees: While
they are dormant; while the ground is
in a workable condition; late In the
fall after growth has stopped, or
early in the spring before it has be-
gun.
2. Where? In well-drained soil.
8. How? Dig an ample hole; spread
the roots out in their natural position
and pack fine earth around them 1t is
handy to separate the clods from the
fine soil in digging.
There is always a balance between
the roots and branches of a tree, so II

a thick layer of straw or manure
around the tree
There are four essential points il

4. Protection from enemies.
Tillage is just as necessary in ire
raising as in corn raising, and for tn
same reasons: To avoid the compel

Intelligent pruning is also very nee
essary to raising fruit. Each bud o
tree is capable of giving rise to
