FERTILIZING TREES.

Most fruit and shade trees need
occasional applications of fertilizers.
a mature apple tree will use from
five to six pounds of a good fertilizer
mixture every few years. This fer
tilizer should be broadcast in cir
cular area extending outward from
below the outer tips of the branches.
instead of nearer the trunk. since the
feeding roots are located beyond the
surface normally shaded by the tree at
noon in Midsummer. In the case of
fruit trees, apply the mixture early
this Spring. about the time the buds
are beginning to swell. This food will
then benefit the crop of 1926. If the
application is delayed, the fertilizer
will he used in bud formation and
will benefit the crop of 1927.

cropping season by affording varieties
of the ealy. mdseason, and late
types. Further. by selecting varieties
within these seasonal divisions, 1t
would be possible to have small yields
of any given variety.
Several years ago. the garden editor
cleft grated a number of limbs on n
moderate-sized apple tree. At least so
per cent of the CRAFTS are now grow
ing and 1t is expected that most of
them will fruit this year. Each grated
limb will bear fruit of one of the 10
varieties used and the selection was
made SO that this one tree would bear
fruit from the earliest sort to the
Winter kinds. 1t is expected that there
will be a plate of each of these kinds
and the quantity will gradually grow
larger as the grated branches grow
older
Grating is a simple process, but It
must he done carefully in the Spring
just before growth starts. Both apples
and pears are the tree fruits which
can be so treated. The process is ex.

ROSES.

Every grower should know tho diff
ference between own-rooted and bud.
dod or grated roses. Ownrooted
roses arc those in which the cuttings
are rooted The advantage of own
rooted roses lies in the fact that II the
top is Winter killed. the new growth
from the root will bloom true to the
variety. The budded or grated rosc
is one which has been worked on a
stock which imparts a vigorous
growth, especially with such roses as
some Of the hybrid teas. which are
poor producers when on their own
roots. One has to watch for suckers
from the stock, for it will tend 10
crowd out the desirable top.
Own-rooted roses are usually rooted
and potted in the Summer or Fall.
They are carried over Winter in the
cool greenhouse or cold frame and
sold from small pots when toward Il
year old. They arc called 1-year old
own-rooted hybrid teas, hybrid per

FRUIT TREES.

In the average home grounds there is
room for but from one to three apple
trees. If these have been planted for
some time. they are probably giving
crops in excess of the immediate needs
of the family. Unless the apples are
good keepers, a quantity of the fruit
may spoil. To avoid having a surplus
of one variety of fruit. it is possible to

trees. introducing scions of desirable

BREAK in DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS EXPECTED

WASHINGTON, Nov. "a. -Four
notes published today by the State
without comment disclose
the United States and Mexico ap-
preaching a showdown on the issue
of American property rights and the
Mexican governments S policy of ma
tionalizing oil and mineral resources.
This phase of the troubled relations
between the two governments hinges
chiefly on the new Mexican land laws
requiring alien owners of such prop
erty to sign away their rights to dip
lomatic protection of their home gov
ernments for their holdings by Jan.
l, or forfeit them to the Mexican gov
eminent.
Not Expected to Accede
American oil and land owners are
not expected to accede to this de-
mand and, further, the state depart
ment has reasserted "the principle OF
international law that it is both the
right and duty of a government to
protect its citizens against any inva-
sion of their rights of person or prop
erty by a foreign government, and
that this right may not be contract
ed away by the individual"
The Gales government, meanwhile
has given no indication of receding
from its position that property rights
legally acquired prior to 1917 by
Americans and other foreigners must
adjust themselves to the new prin'
ciples of naturalization Gin general
