FER.TILIz'ING
THE ORCHARD RI
Leaves and Wood Use More
Plant Food Than Does Pro-
duction of Fruit
NITRATE FERTILIZER NEEDED
Four Important Factors Govern the
Success or Failure Of An
Orchard.

Since orchard trees require several
years TO develop before they reach
maturity and even then do not bear
heavy crops every year. thus allowing
years in which they may recuperate
after heavy crop. We are apt TO jump
to the conclusion that orchard lands
require less fertilizer than other fields
which are used for the production OF
grain and general farm crops. We
should not forget, however. that even
though the tree is not bearing fruit
every year, 1t is each year producing
a large crop OF leaves, the major por.
ton OF which are blown away from
the orchard by the wind. Few
people realize that more plant
food is used in growing leaves and
wood than In producing fruit. but such
Is the case. AS matter OF fact. in
peach orchards more plant food enters
into the leaves of the tree during its
life time than into all the fruit which
Scomessfrom the tree, consequently the
drain on the land from an orchard Is
greater than ordinarily supposed. 8,
The orchard planted, on deep. rich,
lloamy soil will doubtless find all. the
plant food it can utilize already pres.
ent in the soil. Orchards grown, on
thin, shay or sandy soil will not pro.
duce either maximum yield or a max.
imum growth unless they are artlti.
cially fed. 1t Is difficult to know Just
when an orchard needs more food than
the land supplies, but as u general
proposition, soil that will produce a
good crop of corn without fertilizer is
rich enough to produce apples and
peaches without the addition OF any
fertilizer or manure. Soils that need
fertilizer for corn should be fortified
when planted in orchard. The only
sure way to determine the fertilizer
requirements OF an orchard. is TO con.
duct small fertilizer test in one cor.
ner Of the orchard.
