Fertilising rtll Orc'.iard.
Question- —I have a young peach
orchard under my care that needs ini
mediate attention—ferfi.izing, pruning
and eultivaf.ug. I turn, t under a crop
of green pea vines last summer; now
Will it need fertilizing with
manures this spring, or would you ad¬
vise to rely on tae pea vines alone?
Answei; —It is no easy matter to re¬
new the vigor of a young orchard that
has been neglected, aud tho trees con¬
sequently dwarfed aud stnuted. Es¬
pecially is this diffi 'u’.t where the soil is
naturally poor, or partially exhausted.
Turning under the pea vines was of
course beneficial, adding nitrogen and
hutnus to the soil, bat it would have
beeu better to have left the vines to die
on the lane before turning under, as
you would in that way have obtained
better resn'.t-, both iu the way of intro
gea and humus. - V -a - i iu it rely alone
upon the vi-’es plowed under last sum
*ner. but this s iring, and as ear -
pos.-,l'.e, you must apply at the rate of
400 pounds par acre, a ((utilizer com
posed of 800 pounds of acid phosphate,
800 pouuds of kaiuit, and 403 pounds of
cottonseed meal, applying it more liber
ally near and around the trees than else
where. Turn this fertilizer under, be
inR carefu: - i; doin s 3 '> not t( > iu iu r8 the
nwts of the ;ree». The latter part of
April, sow broadcast iu peas, allowing
none, however, to grow within 3 or 4
feet of the trunk of the trees. This
clear space about the trees must be kept
free from grass and weeds, and tho
ground kept mellow with the hoe,
through the growing season. Pick the
P eas as the v rl P ea - aud 111 th 3 early , fall, . ,,

plow under the dead vines, running
vour plow as deep as possible, always
being careful not to injure the roots of
tho trees. Repeat the process next
year, using the same fertilizer, and your
laud should then be iu fine condition,
and your trees restored to their lost
vigor. I have said nothing about the
“pruuiug,” “worming,” etc., which of
course you understand, or you would
not have charge of ti.e on bard.—State

lusecti Iu G a Tints,

spraying pays, and on larger areas, the
; man who does not sorry wiii be dis¬
tanced by his more progressive brother,
who has taken this precaution against
fungus diseases and insect pests. Xotr
; is the time to begin prep iratioas. Get
a sprayer suited to the area to be gone
over. For small vineyards, the kuap-
1 sack sprayer is best suited, while for
I larger areas, the cart or barrel sprayers
should be used. These last are moved
up and down the rows by either baud
or horse power, and do their work most
effectively. For a few vines in the yard
or garden, there are hand sprayers,
which answer every purpose. Bor¬
deaux mixture has been found most ef¬
fective for rot and downy mildew and
should be applied from the time the
buns begin to swell, and at intervals of
two or toreo weeks, until the fruit be¬
gins to color. Copper carbonate dis
solved in two quarts liquid ammonia of
23 per cent strength, ami diluted with
43 gallons of water, is considered the
best mixture for the last application,
because the deposit of copper sulphate
from the Bordeaux mixture might af¬
fect the ready sale of the fruit. If pre
ferreu, a simple solution of copper sui
Tula shou.d ; nay ^ be ) M8df applied °, rsp betore there ™ 7ius is -
any green foliage on the vines. Each
spraying must be carefully and tkor
oughly done, and repeated at shorter in
tervaD than above mentioned, if the
weather should continue damp and
warm. For the Bordeaux mixture the
following directions, which are plain,
being free from technical terms, have
been published. Dissolve 4 pounds of
bluestone in a wooden or earthen vessel,
using about 2 gallons hot water. In a
separate vessel slake 3 pounds of lime,
With enough water to render it thin
enough to strain through a coarss cloth.
The lime solution is strained to prevent
It from clogging the nozzle of the
sprayer. After the copper solution has
become cool, mix it with the strained
lime solution and dilute with 40 gallons
of water. It will then be ready for use.

The “Borer” In Peach Tree*.
Question. —I am engaged in peach
growing, and being a beginner, I would
like to know what insects are liable to
injure the trees or damage the fruit
prosnens, buds begin at tiiis scasou, just before the
to swell.
Answek. —The worst enemy to your
peach trees, at this season of the year,
is the “borer,” which is found iu all
sections of this country, and Canada.
It hatches from eggs laid during the
summer, on the bark of the tree near
tho ground. After hatching, the larvce
work their way into the sap-wood of
the tree, and also downwards, into the
iuner bark of the large roots. As they
grow they continue to foed upon the sap
wood of the tree, doing it great damage.
Their tunnels can always bo discovered.

premiums for whic i are offered by
both papers. Every subsciiber is
to guess at the missing
word in the following sentence;
“SUPPLY AND DEMAND ARE
AS INTIMATELY “...........”
AS CAUSE AND EFFECT.”
and the one who supp ies the correct
word will be entitled to 10 per cent
of the am'Hiut received from sub¬
scriptions not only from The Con
stilulion, but a 1 of the papers par¬
ticipating in this elubbi \'ith
The Constitution between now and
tbe 1st of March. The Constitution
guarantees that at least five hu l

ted, and probably dn- amount wdl
be between 81,000 and 82.000. If
inoie than one pe. son supp ies cor
rectly the missing word, the cash
amount will bedisti\buted among the
successful guessers.
A few months ago The Weekly
Consticutisn offered 81;000 in cash
to the subscriber gutsing the size
of the year's cotton crop as anouneed
by the New Orleans exchange. The
successful guesser was Mr. R. T.

carefully from the base of the tree, ex

with a sharp knife cut out the -borer,”
wherever an exudation of gum indicates
the presence of one. They can fre

ence is indicated. Borne growers da
stroy them by the application of scald¬
ing hot water, the earth of course being
first removed as above mentioned. To
prevent the moth front depositing her
eggs near the surface of the ground,
and consequently near the roots, many
gi-owers bank up the earth around the
base of the tree, to a height of 8 or 10
inches, doing this late in the spring and
removing when cool woather commen
ces. Some cover the bark at the base of
the "tree with paper or straw, which is
said to afford considerable protec

of tie world. This the Cocsdtution
does belter than any southern week¬
ly newspaper, and the fact that it
has now the largest circalatioa of
any weekly newspaper pub isbedon
the western hemisphere a:tests to
its popularly. It publishes 15(3,

more homes in the southern and
western states than any weekly
newspaper published in America.
