Description of an Economical Way of, Curing Green Fruit. } Bun-dried fruit has a flavor that can- ! not be approached by the evaporated, sulâ€" phur-bleached article. Besides, sun-dry- ing is the moat economical plan for our ‘ ing green fruit, where but small quantl. ties are prepared annually. Fruit exposed to the sun and air should, however, be protected from the flies. A convenient plan is shown in the cut. Two frames of inch-by-two~inch stuff, of equal size, are covered with wire mosquito netting. On the one the fruit is spread evenly and thinly while the other serves as a cover, the whole rest-ing on a saw -horse frame, or upon four stakes driven into the ground with cross-pieces nailed to the tops. The air thus circulates up through the fruit, while tiles and other insects have no chance to soil it. Two strips can be nailed across the bottom to support the weight upon it, if neededâ€"American Gardening. G rowth of Trees. i l In a recent bulletin of the Forestry Department of the United States, refer- once is made to the effect of light on the growth of various trees. It is well known, says l’rof. Fernow, that light is neces- sary for the development of chlorophyll, and, therefore, for the life of all green plants, and especially for that of trees. The heat alone which accompanies the light is not sufficient, although the in- fluence of the light and the heat on the growth is still an open question, as well as the relative requirements in light of different species of trees. In the case of forest trees. which in forestry serve as an indication of the amount of shade which the trees exert, and with that their capacity of impending evaporation, some require full sunlight for their development, others are averse to a high degree of light. To this must be due the change in the plants of a district when its for~ esta are removed. Then the amount of light or shade needed is modified by site. Where the sunlight is strong, in higher altitudes, drier climates, or where the growing season is longer, or. there are more sunny days, some species will en- dure more shade. The flora of high alti- tudes in general requires light. Trees nearly always develop best, in other words make most wood, in the full en- joyment of light, but their capacity of developing under shade varies greatly. The yew will thrive in the densest shade; while a few years’ overtopping kills the larch; the beech will grow with consid- erable energy under partial shade, where the oak would only just keep alive, and the birch would die. When planted in moist places all species are less sensitive to the withdrawal of light. In the open, maples, clms, sycamores,aud others grow well and make good shade trees, in a dense forest they thin out and have but scanty foliage. Conifers, such as spruces and firs. which preserve the foliage of several years, have perhaps the greatest capacity of growing under shade, and preserving their foliage in spite of the withdrawal of light. In America suffi- cient data to group the forest trees ac- cording to the amount of light required by them have not been collected. but rules based on experience havn long been formed in Germany, where the behavior of trees under different conditions of light has been carefully studied. It has been found. for instance, that on the same branch those leaves which are de- veloped under the full influence of sun. light are not only larger and often tougher in texture. and thicker, but that they have a larger number of stomata or breathing pores than those less exposed to light. The. whole subject is one of the utmost importance in forestry, and ob- servations and experiments are to be carried out in regard to it in the United States. Hort lculturai Notes. Bear in mind that white celery, while handsome enough, is not the best celery. The rod and pink colored are richer and sweeter and more tender. A German pharmacist states that for some years he has used, with excellent results, solid psi-affine for stopping ves- sels containing substances which change easily in the air. A vessel should be filled nearly to the brim, and melted pnrailinn being poured on will form an air-light seal on cooling. The parallin uzuv be uosd over and over again. Fruit growzng has In this country been tco gum-rally made a side issue by farmers, who haw given most of their time. thought and fertilizer to othercrops that have not half the possibilities that fruit growing has. Occasionally the con- (litiuns for largo. crops of fruit are all right and everybody has a large crop, usually making the crchurd pay for more than all the farm besides. It is at such tuner. as these that farmers see what fruit growing may be made to yield. What is nemiml for this result is that more farmers go into fruit growing as on exclusive business. or only combined with such other branches of farming as can be subordinated to it. When this is done and the orchard is managed after business methods it will he made to pr. and not before. It ought not to be thought any more risky to spend a bun- .dred or a thousand dollars to supply the orchzsrd with needed fertilizers than it is to use the same amount of money to buy feed for eon-s. horses and other; .ttosk. it is the habit of thinking that ‘ lb» or. naval [li’v‘x‘uit’ a wholly by the aid i of 3...!!‘3. !"..-:’.i funk-'3‘ farmers regard i l i ~ tr. .' ..’ .. intently from other c. ~;~~. j; 12;; :‘-:.;l‘xzers for grain and f 1.: m C m ;<‘ and find' that this ;~.,;.- 1.
