THE PEAR AND HOW TO
GROW IT.
By C. B. BRACKETT. Pomolosisi.

States Department Of Agriculture.

~EAR trees are more difficult to
maintain In q healthy, produc-
tive condition than apple trees
and cannot be grown with the
same degree OF success over so wide
an area OF country.
Trees propagated by budding the
pear upon ounce stock are known as
dwarfs. The Anglers variety of ounce
IN principally used ,for this purpose
Such trees develop Hbrous root sys-
tenn, are dwarfed in habit and gener-
ally productive and come into bearing
early. Some varieties succeed better
on ounce stock than on pear stock.
The dwarf type OF tree may be ad-
vantageousiy used on small city lots.
but in some OF the eastern states there
are many large and profitable com
mercial pear orchards of small size.
Trees produced by grating or bud
ding improved varieties on Seeding
pear stock are known as standards.
They are comparatively longer lived
than dwarfs and In time become lar
ger trees, capable OF yielding heavier
crops OF fruit, but they usually come
into bearing more tardily.
The clipping Proesss.'
A method Of converting dwarf trees
into half standards, often practiced
with good results. IL known as the
slipping process" II consists In max
ing slit with sharp knife through
the bark and slightly into the sapwood
of the tree in an upward direction just
above the union with the ounce root
on which II has been worked. Al
these lips callus forms from which
roots grow, and these In time become
strong enough to sustain the tree after

the ounce roots become inactive. The
treatment must be given at the time
Of setting the trees. and they must be
planted deeper than usual. so that the
point of union will be several inches
underground.
Pears do not certainly reproduce
themselves well or true to variety
when grown from seed; hence the ne
cessity for budding or grating In or

if seedlings are desired good pear seeds
terminate readily when saved from

The seeds should be stratihed-i. e.,
mixed In alternate layers OF moist sand
In a box-covered securely to guard
against rats and mice. and the box
should be placed on the north side OF

TO freezing and thawing throughout
the winter until the time for planting

Other crops. such as potatoes, cab
bages, peas. beans. melons. ETC.. may
be grown to advantage. Small grain
or grasses which do not require cult

Cover crops, by conserving moisture
and adding elements OF fertility to the
