precaution against crown gall or root
knot; emerse the roots (after all ready
to plant), in one pound blue stone to
ten gallons of water, being careful
not to bruise the roots thereafter.
Set the tree in ground with bud side
to the northeast, which is protection
from the sun. All trees should have
a covering loosely about the trunks to
protect them from the sun.
All orchards should be thoroughly
irrigated during the winter, slow irri-
cation to get the water deep in the
soil, and not so much irrigation dur

Waite Advises
What to Plant

This being the time to plant decid-
uous trees | wish to call the atten-
tion to the tree planters to a few facts
that may be of benefit.
Many trees were planted in the val
ley last season as we'll as other sea-
sons, and the losses were great on
account of lack of experience, condi-
tions being vastly different here and
many things to be considered.
In deciding to plant out different
kinds of fruit trees, either for home
uses or on commercial bases, it is
advised to thoroughly investigate as
to the varieties best adapted to our
climatic and soil conditions, realizing
that there is even a vast difference
in soils in the valley which will need
to be handled, and trees planted best
adapted to that particular kind of
soil.
Apricots do we'll; among the best
varieties for this valley are the New
castle, Royal and Blemheim, on peach
root, a peach root resists alkali best.
Among the peach varieties several
are reported to do well, but have not
all been tried out as to commercial
planting. They are Waldo, "Stump of
the World" Bidwell, Improved Yel-
low st. John, Alexander, Imperial,
Palace, Belle of Georgia.
Most all varieties of grapes do well,
the Persian 21, Malaga and Thomp
son seedless being the best for COM
mercial planting. More slip skinned
(Eastern) should be planted, as it will
be found that there are some of them
that will be very profitable to grow.
Prepare the ground by deep plow
ing, and if hard layers are at all
present, dynamite is very beneficial, to
allow the moisture to go deep. The
roots of trees will follow the moist
ure. All trees and plants should be
planted the same position as they
were grown in the nursery, and close
enough to the water line that they
will receive plenty of moisture. After
thoroughly settled, dirt should sur
round the trees so that they do not
get water around the trunks, the plant
taking up moisture at ends of hair
roots and not around the trunk, and
as the tree grows irrigation can be
given farther away as the roots pen
citrate the soil much farther out than
the limbs extend.
AS to preparing the trees for
planting the root system should be

that they were artists no one will
