The methods employed for this pur

into corrals by means of regularly or

The attempt to destroy rabbfts by
spreading contagious disease among
them has thus far not proven very
successful. The use of pois0ns. such
as strychnine. and phosphorus. has GER
tain disadvantages. on account of the
fact that the jack-rabbits do not bur

must be scattered on the surface of

to other animals.

sELEcT Hes FOR PLANNING
Nurseryman Not Always TO Blame for
inferior Stock That Buyer re-
ceIves---Easy to Tell Age.

Although nearly every person VINO
buys fruit trees is particular as to
the character of the tree which NE
buys. nevertheless. thousands OF trees
are planted every year which are not
suitable for orchard purposes, That
this condition should exist may b.
due to the combination of a number
of causes. There are three, however
which win account for the planting o.
the greater portion of inferior trees.
Very frequently the buyer has no
well-defined idea as to what the tree
should be. A second cause is that h.
does not state exactly in his order
just what kind sof trees he wants
Even II he fulfills the first two re
quirements. he often fails to refuse
stock which has been sent to him
which does not come up to the specifi-
cations in h@ order. Even though he
knows that they are practically worth
less he plants such trees simply be
cause he does not care to take th4
furnish him good goods or because CT
the delay that viii be entailed.
The nurseryman is not always TO
blame because a buyer gets inferior
trees. There are many things which
makes the flling or nursery orders
difficult. but probably the chief re0so l
why SO many poor trees are sert @ :
from the nursery is because t'e
avcra-e buyer is dissatisfied unless he
gets a large tree with a heavy ier
In his attempt to satisfy the demaHA
for large trees, the nurseryman very
frequently is Obliged to sacrifice the
very things which would make 'ae
tree most valuable.
Unfortunately. nursery trees ere
commonly sold by size rather than
age. Size is not necessarily a criterion
of the worth of tree In fact, IL is
worthless factor in Judging unless
considered in connection with age.

old. but 1t would be much poorer

great many trees are being carried in
the nursery until they are long past
the best age for planting, simply to
get them to large size. This is par
ticularly true of slow-growing varie-
lies.
The tree standard then, for buying
trees, is the age. In this. of course
size should be considered to the extent
that the trees should be of good size
for the variety at that age.
II is very easy to determine the age
of a nursery tree. The age is counted
from the budding or grating. The
end of each years growth is marked
by row of rings or scars around the
trunk and branches. To tell tho age
of tree. begin at the tip OF a branch
and follow back to the base OF the
tree counting the scale rings. The
tree win be one year older than the
number of rings. 1t is best to use the
branches at the top. In trees on
which the tips of the branches have
been injured or removed, during the
summer. some difficulty may be ex
perienced in determining defiaI.ely,
but this method will serve in most
cases without difficulty.
The best age at which to plant trees
is much-mooted question The pres
ent tendency is to plant trees which
are too old. The upper limit OF age
for an apple tree is three years Two
year-pld trees will be found better
than older ones in most cases.
Another factor which tends to give
inferior trees where they remain long
In the nursery is the fact that rhey
are grown very close together, and
this forces the branches to grow more
