Mr. Van Deman says: orchard The true theory is to cultivate and an every year, manure well, be never plant or sow to any crop unless it clover or cow p -is.

These, how telligcnce ener, can be and fought with success, used, if in The who perseverance insects are destroy person allows to his apple crop is neglecting his business, Lack of Sufficient Nutrition: When the country was first settled the virgin soil was full of decayed vegetable mat ter, which stimulated tho growth of orchard trees of all kinds. The decrease of natural fertility of the soil has not boon met by sufficient artificial enriching it. Crop after crop has been taken, and rarely a return in the way of manure.
