This is a good time to tanaphmfc
almost every kind of fruit trees in
our climate.- Get a plenty of them
groin the nuiserymen. It looks bad
to see a farm destitute of apple, pear
peach, quince and other fruit tree?!
In setting them onf, trim the mu
tilated roots; always shorten the bran
ches, and do not allow too many to
remain. Be careful to dig nnd loos
en the soil well in planting, avoid
planting too deep; spread out the loots
in their natural position; cover with
fine soil and press down well. These
rules apply to all kind of trees, and
if properly followed, tliev will thrive
and do well. We preler October and
November to transplant, tiees, to auy
other months. It is better to get
them put out by the 10th of Novem
