FALL PLANTING OF ORCHARDS
Experience Shows Many Advantages
and Practice Is Becoming General
Roots Heal Quickly.

There are many good reasons for
the fall planting OF orchards.
Those who wish to have an orchard
or to enlarge the one they already
have should get busy.
An orchard pays FIVE times as much
as grain per acre and fall planting is
becoming more popular each season
as experience shows its advantages
and tho practice is becoming general.
As soon as a tree or shrub becomes
dormant II can be moved from ono
place to another and the change OF
location will affect Il but little.
When set out In the fall the bruised
roots begin Immediately TO heal and
callus is formed, the trees recover
quickly from the moving, soon become
firmly established and with the first
touch OF spring are ready to 20 into
business for themselves in vigorous
way.
Again, the ground is generally in
better condition for planting in the
fall than in the spring for much spring
planting Is done when the ground Is
too wet for results.

DEVICE GRADES FRUIT
Number Of Machines Are Now on

To Command Good Prices Apples Must
Be Packed Neatly In Attractive
Packages-Llttle Extra Tlme
and Skill Is Required.
(By W. G. BRIERLY.)

More. careful grading and packing
Of apples demands that only apples of
one size be put in package. Some
packers become 80 expert that they
can grade an apple with their eye, but
q lot of growers used apple grading
machines this year to size the fruit.
A number Of machines are now on
the market. They have been devel.
oped by practical men, 30 that 1t Is
reasonable to suppose that some Of
them will in every way be satisfac-
tory.
The requirements are first that the
fruit be graded without any bruising,
second that the apples be graded &C.
curately and third that the speed be
great enough to permit a large guam.
tity of fruit to be handled in a limited
time.
One OF the simplest machines for
grading and sorting fruit is made in
the shape OF a hopper with chute
running from 1t. The chute gradually
increases in size, SO that the fruit, as
1t rolls down drops into the secondary
chute. Another satisfactory machine
is run by treadle. The fruit Is
