was presented and the judge gave the
charge TO the jury. The jury after be-
ing out only about three minutes re-
turned to the court room and rendered
a verdict Of guilty.
The judge then sentenced the defend

The judge explained this to mean char
acter in chains, and imposed on him
scme OnOrCus duties in connection with

One Of the instructions of the Judge
was that the defendant bury the T.

years OF the plants growth. AS we'll
expect a child to do a mans work as
a two or three year old tree to pro-
duce what a five or six year old tree
should.
The first two or three years should
be devoted to the building up Of the
work adapted to produce the maximum
quantity and quality for a great many
years. If production is allowed
while young. it will be at the ex-
pense Of the trees vigOr when it
should be in its prime. This tendency
toward production is easily cor
rected by pruning. which subject was
taken up quite fully in a previous
paper.
CuItivntinE.
Nothing will pay so well as thorough
cultivation, and this should commence
before the tree or vine is planted, by
deep blowing. and pulverizing the top
five or six inches thoroughly; there
should be no clOds, in this top five CT
six inches. larger than would pass
half inch sieve This condition should
be maintained at all times
This dust mulch, as it is called by
some, helps to conserve the moisture,
gives admittance to the proper amount
of air. and also breaks up the IN
tensity OF the suns rays which tends
to dry the ground and also burn the
plant. This thorough cultivation al
lows OF no weed growth whatever.
Several Crops at Once.
In districts where irrigation water

Cultivation

" RUIT growing, to be successful,
calls for the best energies of brain
and Drawn, and will bring forth
results in proportion to these two es-
sentials. Intelligent and intensive care
is needed to pay dividends upon the
investment Of time, capital, and labor.
If you desire to be a factor among
the commercial growers, do not plant
too many varieties. Better have the
reputation of producing one variety Of
fruit unexceHed than Of being fair in
a great many.
Plant Few Varieties.
All fruit sections of the world have
made their regulations on one variety
Of fruit. Andrew Carnegie says he
reversed the old adage which said not
to place all the eggs in one basket.
His motto was: Put all your eggs
in one basket and then watch the
basket
In the Hood river district in oregon
% percent of the fruit trees are apples
Some southern California districts can
beat this by nearly percent on par
ucular varieties. These cases are the
strongest argument the advocates Of
diversified crops have TO combat.
1t has been proved by all these
one variety districts that 1000 acres
of a variety will succeed better per
acre in the markets than viii 100 acres.
These growers in districts that have
become famous know why IL pays to
have a one crop specially. Their
profits are sUrer, their common good
better conserved. and their marketing
economies better looked after than
would be possible with diversified or
mixed crops. The reputation of a fruit
district is the market guarantee. and
its fruit Will sell better without
sight than equally meritoriOus but IN
known fruit on inspection.
Marketing Made Easy.
Growers need not be concerned
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1913-04-05

about an outlet for their fruit. If they
have quality in large quantities OF one
variety, as there are always vast
amounts of capital eager to enter a
new field and exploit is as soon as the
production is large enough to justify
the building of packing houses for the
handling Of any particular product
Practical Advice.
Some may think that the above is
feature outside the heading Of this
article. Possibly it is. But I believe
1t is so important that I have already
made reference to it several times.
What 1 want to impress upon the
readers Of these articles is this: First
find out what fruit. il any, you can
produce in your district year after
year without failures, or the minimum
amount Of failures, a fruit that viii
compare fayOrably with, or be su-
perior to. similar varieties Of the same
fruit produced in some other district
or state or country; then produce 1t
in such quantity and perfection rs
to attract attention.
/ believe this can and will be
done here believe We can produce
some fruit which win be the equal,
If not the superior, of any like Va
riety anywhere. Our marketing facil-
tiles are at least as good as the dis
tricts now producing these fruits in
large quantities The cost of labor
is as cheap here as in any other dis
trict IN this country, or cheaper; ana
II am correct in my deductions,
there is no doubt that this section
Will again become famous for the eX-
cellence of certain of its fruits If

mistake often made. This is at the ex-
pense of the vitality of the plant, and

As to the best method Of blowing,

The important point is to do il thor

considering them of minor Importance
during the developing stages Of the
plant However, there is no necessity
for allowing the space not needed for
their development to go unused during
this time, when a crop like alfalfa
would be a benefit to the land and
perhaps be less work to produce than
TO keep the space free from weeds and
