C., TUESDAY, SEPT. 4. Peach Culture—Thinning. Editor of i'he Aiken Recorder: Thinning, as here used, means ta lcing off a porjjon of the fruit after it ,A‘" , • is set. Its objecta are, first, to produce larger and finer peaches; second, to prevent the limbs from splitting off by being*osrerloaded; third, by pre venting a heavy crop from affectit g the vitality of the tree. yhe great <»bject of the grower for market should be to produce each year an average crop of fine peaches. Thin ning, as well as pruning, manuring. Ac., is a very important factor in the attainment of this result. If from • the effects of cold there is a short croi of peaches one year, the trees wi!l make a heavy growth and set a large crop of fruit buds, conseq iently ti e i-ext year the trees will respond with a large crop of small peaches, and the market respond with a low prjee, causing the trees to do somewhat sim liar to the Northern apples by bearing every other year. I have seen orch ards which tiie proprietor f<aid w’erc killed by cold, when the effect wa:- cuused almost wholly by an ovet- crop the previous year. Again, orch ards under roy observation this year had paying croiw of fruit when pro. - erly pruned, thinned, Ac., and others that overcropped themselves and were not cared for, had no peaches. Peaches are inclined to overbear and make an extra exertion to perfect the crop it sets, even drawing on its own vitality to do this. I have seen trees utterly ruined by one extra heavy crop. Trees in good growth will set ten times the fruit they can properly mature. Consequently they will com mence throwing off fruit from the time it sets until they get grown having during this time ex|>ended vigor lu partially growing three- fourths of their crop, which they had to cast off, yet ripening two or three times the fruit they ought, and not having a respectable peach except on limbs thinly set. Trees tiiat have a heavy crop make very little growth and set very few fruit buds, and those few have so little vigor that the slightest cold kills them; or sometimes they fail to set peaehea, if there i«. no cold. A train loaded with animals ran off in. the orchard of a gentleman in one of the Northern States, and hundreds of an imals were killed. The proprietor took the carcasses and buried them under the trees. There being no fruit that year the trees made immense growth, bore so very heavily the next year that their vitality was impaired, and they broke up so badly that they were worthless ever after. If three- fourths of the crop had been thinned, that crop would have brought more money than it did and the trees would have been saved. ' It is seldom that the Chinese Cling and varieties ripening with and after it need thinning; but .it fs important in the precocious early kinds, as Beat rice, Amsdeu, Hales, Ac. The easiest way to thin is to take a pole and thrash right and left; but it would be a nice point to decide which would hurt the tree most, bruising with the pole or the excess of peqyhes. Neither should be thought of for a moment. They should be carefully picked oft’ by- hand, leaving only the most perfect specimens, and then only one speci men on a limb—unless the limb is very long, and then only two. Oh! some one will say, too much trouble; can’t do that. Very well, go ahead and raise peaches that will hardly pay freight. If properly thinned the trees will bear nearly as many bushels, and they will be so much larger that it certainly pays. They require to be handled at- some time, and it is cer tainly eksier, when they are small, to rapidly* pick them, oft" and drop them on the ground, than to pick off later and pack in boxes, when they will hardly pay axpenses. In view of the extensive orchards that are being set out, the time is uot fur distant when only flue peaches carefully handled will bring good prices. The matter of expense is an item. It certainly pays better to send one box of fine peaches and get 45 or $0, than to send five or six bushels of poor ones and get the same amount. The expense b.v ex press is too heavy* to handle poor fruit. T. S. Williams. Ridge, S. C M Aug. 2-», 1883. P. S.—In my last article it should have been, instead #f steady, “to in duce a stocky growth.*’ maining late bolls on the stalks for the reason that there is but very little ditlereuce in picking them out rather than plowing them under. The cost of picking the late crop is more, and the price obtained for the yellow cot ton is less, and when we consider the manurial value of this small late crop, there is but little economy in gather ing it. When we consider the advan tages of an early sown oat crop, there is no economy iu picking this la.e crop. • NEWS ITEMS. —The Democratic State Contention of Massachusetts will be held iu Sringfleld on September 20. —A brother of James Carey, Up Irish informer, has been attacked by Eenians.
