All perfectly hardy trees should be
transplanted in the fall rather than
the following spring If we can rely
upon the results Of tests made at the
Missouri Agricultural Experiment
Station. Johnothan apple trees plant
ed in the fall made nearly twice as
good a growth as those planted the
next spring. Of cherry trees trans
planted in the fall of 1913 every one
lived while only a third of those
planted in the spring of 1914 sur
vived the dry summer of that year.
Those which did live made only a
quarter as good growth as those
planted the fall before. This com
parison is based mainly on the term
inal growth Or length added to the
branches which is a very important
means Of telling how an orchard is
thriving. Even peach trees and 9TH

do better when fall planted in the

In ordering fruit trees for fall
planting, insist that they be dug and
shipped just when the leaves begin to
fall and the remaining leaves al be
easily stripped from the nursery

tres hold their leaves from two weeks
to a month longer than those in the
orchard which have been bearing for
some time. During most seasons the
best time for transplanting is during
the first half Of November but plant
ing any time before the ground
freezes has been found to give better
results than spring planting.

Following the meeting Of the
