PLANTING TREES.
Twenty Utile* to lie OlifterveU to tnimro
Niiitpm.
The following twenty rules are self-
evident to most tree planters, who, for
want of attention, break sonic of them,
and reminders are therefore often use
ful:
1. A valuable sort is wort li more than
merely a handsome tree.
2. Good, healthy, bracing roots are
of more importance, than a symmetrical
top.
3. The roots should he long and
strong enough, and the top made light
enough, to obviate any staking.
4. If the roots of a tree tire frozen,
and then thawed out of the ground or
hi contact w ith the ah\ the tree will
be killed.
f> If frozen roots are thawed in com
pactly-pressed mellow earth, the tree
may bo made to live,
d. Manure should never be placed in
contact with the roots when setting
out the tree, but. used for a mulch or
top-dress lag.
7. Trees should always be sot about
ns deep as they aloud in the nursery,
or two «>r three inches deeper, to allow
for the settling of tic earth.
M. Spread out t he roots nearly equally
on all sides, so as to brace the tree
well.
9. Avoid particularly any small cav
ity next to the roots, but Jill compactly
against them on nil sides with fine,
mellow earth.
10. A small, thrifty tree with copious
roots when wet out will be a good bear
ing tree sooner than a largo one with
mutilated root*.
11 Watering in dry weather crusts
tiie surface and does not reach me
root s
l!j. Young trees should not be sot in I
a grass lot or among any crops oJ i
sowed grain; but. the whole surface
kept clean and mellow,
1,*L Shriveled trees, before planting,
may be made plump by covering for !
several days, complicity, with moist, !
incllow cart h.
14. If newly set ones suffer from
drought mulch the ground about
them, and frequently sprinkle of
shower the stem* and branches.
If,. The roots extern! ns far from the
tree as its entire height; clean and
mellow cultivation should therefore
cover a circle twice as wide as ita
height.
1*1. As a general rule cultivation
should he continued for six, eight or
ten years from planting, after which
closely grazed or .lawn-mowed grass
may be permitted with frequent top-
dressing.
17. The amount of manuring or top-
dressing must vary with the vigor of
the tree; young trees should grow two
or three feet yearly, and bearing ones
one foot or more.
18. Keep an eye to the future shape
of the tree, and timely remove small,
needless, crossing or crooked limbs.
This will obviate heavy pruning in
after years.
19. Pruning when dormant tends to
impart vigor, hut if done when grow
ing or in leaf it checks growth, and
therefore feeble trees should never be
pruned after growth commences in the
spring. Hut healthy strong growers
may be lightly pruned at either sea
son.
20. Most of the “bad luck" with
young trees and orchards is the result
of neglecting the preceding rules.—*
