Restriction on Cherry Culture.

Cherries are expensive to gather
and are not adapted to a distant mar
ket. that is a market that is several
days away. Perhaps this is the reason
why they are not raised more ex-
.,tensively on the Pacific coast, where
they grow in certain limited areas
with most gratifying success. Cherries
do o thrive well beyond a certain
limit of latitude, either north or south.
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Nebraska and
Kansas are notably well located in
this respect.

Crown Calls.

The only practical remedy for crown
gals is the knife. A shoemaker's
knife is the best, as it gives a clean
rocking cut. Follow the tunnels until
you find the grubs and destroy them,
then remove the dead and sulky bark,
leaving a clean-cu2, live bark surface.
Rub a little moist dirt over the wound
to prevent the bark from drying too
rapidly. 1t Is a good thing to disinfect
the knife by dipping 1t into weak car.

spreading crown gals by the knife
