Set out Fruit Trees Now

Late fall or early winter is the best
time for setting in practically all sec
lions, of the south. OF course fruit
winter. but late November, December
or early January Is probably about
the best time for this work. In set
ting trees. be sure to put them in
straight rows. y man who can run a
off the rows straight enough for all
practical purposes.
Use a onc-horse plow with Il scooter
or shovel attached. as all that is need
ed is TO outline the row with a light
furrow.
In digging the hole for the tree. dig
it deep and wide enough for all the
roots OF the tree TO be spread out in
their natural position. BY digging a
small hole and wadding the roots in
a small space and setting out in this
shape. one is inviting failure. When
digging the hole, throw the top soil
In one pile and the raw or subsoil i'll
another. Then place the top soil in
letting the raw soil come on top.
Before setting the fruit trees. cut
on all broken or otherwise injured
roots, because if one sets fruit tree
with broken root. decay may set i'll
and cause trouble. Set from one and one
half TO three inches deeper than they
were in the nursery row. II the wealth
er is likely to be dry after setting. one
had better leave slight saucer
snarsd depression AROUND the tree so
should be filled with soil as soon as il
is evident that the trees have COM
mened to grow. Dry weather kills
and this can often be prevented by
spreading around the tree layer OF
straw or leaves. Such treatment serves
10 prevent evaporation of moisture.

Wednesdays sun there was something
of rush in all OF the retail sections
OF the city. Thursday was IL holiday,
but the shoppers resumed business Fri
day. and on the whole they made it
big week for the storekeepers.
There has come something OF hull
for the wholesalers in most lines. The
hurry orders from country merchants
for goods to fill in for their Christmas
trade have all been filled and with Il
majority Of the jobbers the season for

CARY STREET BUSINESS
Trade Very Fine-Markct Crowded

EEEs stu Scarce.

There was great trade on Cary and
Thirteenth Streets all of last week.
The commission merchants and produce
dealers received all kinds OF season
able goods from the rural regions and
from interior shipping points. and all
because it was Thanksgiving week.
Turkeys and other fowls poured in
from every quarter. More turkeys
were shipped to Richmond for the
Thanksgiving dinners than the demand
called for and as early as Wednesday
prices begun TO sag. Big stocks OF the
birds were left on hand and many a
coop found their way to the poultry
slaughter pens that the contents might
be killed and dressed for cold storage.
The receipts of hens and chickens and
rabbits. while large. very large, were
not in excess of the demand and prices
held up very we'll
The supply of all fruits OF the
season, especially Of apples was sufi-
cient for the demand and for the per-
feet goods there were no sagging of
prices. There were many slightly
damaged apples on the market and, OF
course, these went off in price.
There was no change in the egg
situation. Receipts OF eggs fresh from
the country continue below the dema nd
and prices, although already higher
than ever before known in Richm ond,
are still tending upward and may. the
