Trees of a very great size can be moved successfully if time and money are of no account, but it is an expensive process and should be attempted only where immediate effect is wanted or in the case of a rare variety that requires to be re moved and cannot be replaced. To prepare a large tree for re moval, says Horticulture, a deep trench should be dug around the tree from five to seven feet from the base of the tree and working under so as to cut off all the roots Eible without disturbing the The ends of the roots should all be cut smooth and the trench filled up with a good compost of peat, rotten sods and manure and left for a year, when a second trench can be opened at the outside of the first and the tree carefully under mined with a pick, so as to remove the soil with as little injury to the young fibers as possible, and the tree carefully drawn over so as to cut whatever taproot may have been left. If a supply of bass mats is at hand they can be carefully bound around the ball of earth, and if it is not too large it can be loaded on a drag and drawn to the place of planting, where the hole has been prmiared beforehand. If too large for a drag the ball of earth may be surrounded by boards or layers of hay and straw firmly bound with cords, a few boards passing underneath and the whole fastened to the stem, which should be well wrapped with hay or woolen material before any force for lift ing is applied. It can then be raised With the use of a derrick on to a truck and taken to the de sired place, lowered in the hole, the binding taken off, the roots care fully spread and the soil well work ed in among them and well firmed. Large trees can also be trans planted by digging around them in winter and allowing the earth around them to be frozen solid, having the ground prepared pre viously and covered with coarse ma terial to keep out the frost, and re moving them on a sled to their des tination.
