When planning the orchard, there is one thing that farmers should bear in mind. The orchard requires attention and must receive such, else all trees and vines put out will soon go like thousands of others have done in the State, and all the farmer gets for his labor and money put into th<B trees is a case of dis appointment. We urge you to give the trees a fair trial and see the re sults. The methods of caring for an orchard are indeed simple and inex pensive and any farmer in the State who is not thoroughly familiar with the methods, will get in touch with the county agent or drop him a card and asking for the information this will be gladly given. The prof its wiU greatly exceed the expense.

IK ZJ. 4 winter can be summed up briefly as follows: 1. Select the site for the orchard, which should be on an elevated sec ! tion, not a high hill, but simply, as the farmer would speak of it a little knoll. This gives good air drainage and also lessons the danger of frost. I 2. Prepare the soil thoroughly be fore setting the trees. Break deep, following with a cutaway in order to get the soil as fine as' possible. It is betteT to do this from two to four weeks before the trees are set out. 3. When setting the trees, if soil is not in a good state of fertility, it will be well to haul in a Mttle woods earth to place about the roots. If this cannot be secured, get a little barnyard manure and horoughly in-' corporate with the soil that is place around the roots. This will enable trees to grow faster the following i spring. 4. Be sure to dig the holes injjj which trees are placed deep enough jt to allow trees to be about two id inches deeper in the soil than they|[ were in the nursery row and wide;* enough to allow all roots to spread i? out full length. 5.

Also trim off all small branches and in case of peaches, cut them off from 15 to 18 inches above the ground, apples should be cut off about two feet above the ground. 6. Give the trees the proper dis tance. The following distances do well for the home orchard: Peaches 20 feet each way; apples 30 feet each way; pears same as apples; plums and cherries 20 feet each way; blackberries and dewberries make rows 5 feet wide and set three feet in drill; dewberries aTe often plantd 4x4 and grapes 8x8. 7. The following varieties are re commended for the home orchard. Apples: Kea june, noTse, may Harvest, Staymen, Winesap, Shock ley, Ben Davis and Mrs. Bryan. Pears: Keiffet, LeConbi, Bsyrtlette, and Seckel. Plums: Wild Goose, Climax and Abundance. Cherries: Early Richmond. Peach: Mayflower, Greensboro, Red Bird, Hiley Belle, Carmen, Elberta, Old Mixon, Free, Crowther's Late. Blackberries: Ear ly Harvest, Eldorado and Wilson. Dewberries: Lucretia. Grapes: Moore's Early, Luti, Lindley, Dela ware, Niagara, Concord, Brighton. The outline given above is all that is necessary to get the orchard started. Let's have an orchard on every farm, raise our fruit as well as other thing? to eat at home. Work on the old orchard should begin at once, and should consist of thorough and careful spraying, pruning, worming and cultivating. Why these operations? 1.
