DAY ‘3 7 U. tf ETHE HAISINQ 53F NUTS Some Practical Observations as ' to Tree Punting. (Contributed by Ontario Do Agriculture. Toron The conservation and improvement of our native nut trees and the intro- duction of suitable varieties from for- eign lands have not occupied a promi- nent place in horticultural activities in North America until just recently. except in the Southern and Western United States, where a great deal of interest has been shown during the last twenty years in this place of hor- ticulture. In the northern and eastern States and in Canada there is a growing in- terest in this useful but much neglected branch or horticulture. An example or this commendable move- ment isseen in the organisation and activities of the Northern Nut Grow- ers Association. This organization was formed in 1909, and is composed of men and women from almost every station in life who are interested in the culture of nut trees and the ex- tension 01 the use at nuts as articles or human food. At the suggestion of members of this association, the State of Michigan has undertaken an extensive program of nut tree planting along the state highways, and in other northern states good work has been done to encourage peo- ple to plant more and better nut trees. I ln Ontario comparatively little has been tried to improve and plant our valuable nut trees, and unless some- thing is done to interest the public in this movement we shall lose a golden opportunity to save for our- selves and posterity the remant oi' the fine nut trees which formerly grew so abundantly in some parts of this Province. Why Nut Trees Should be Planted. Most people who are interested 1n the welfare of the country realize that trees generally should be plant- ed in much greater numbers, and some believe that it would be desir- able to plant trees that"serve a three- fold purpose of food, shelter and beauty. Nut trees yield a valuable food, provide shelter and beautify the landscape, and thus combine beauty with utility. Large quantities of nuts are imported every year from foreign countries, for Which a great deal of money has to be sent out of the country. It is believed that a portion of this demand for nuts could be met by growing a greater number of the best types of native and introduced species. Where Nut Trees Might be Used to Advantage. - (1) As Roadside and Street Trees: Where the soil and the site are suit- able, nut trees should form a part of the scheme of beautifying our high- ways and streets. (2) Trees for the Home Grounds: The grounds surrounding many of our homes, both rural and urban, would be more beautiful and produc- tive it planted with some of the best types of native and exotic nut trees. Inasmuch as nut growing is a com- paratively recent development, our Ontario nurserymen have not de- voted much attention to the propaga- tion of named varieties of nut trees. There is some interest being shown at present, however, and it is hoped that before long there will be a fair supply of the best varieties of native and foreign nut trees available. in the meantime those who desire to secure named varieties of nut trees will have to place their orders with nut nurserymen in the United States. Nut Trees May be Top-grafted. (3) Steep Hillsides or Other Places: Areas not easily or profitably cultivated could be very well devoted to nut trees provided the soil was suitable. Should the prospective nut cultur- ist not be able to obtain at a moder- ate figure budded or grafted stock of improved varieties of nuts then, of course, the only thing to do is to grow seedling trees. As previously stated, some of these may produce very good nuts. If superior trees are found in any lot grown from seed, or if an exceptional fine na- tive tree is known to exist, such trees are useful as a source of scions for improving trees that are not so de- sirable. It is a fact, though not gen- erally known, that nut trees may be top-grafted like fruit trees. This task is not as easy to accomplish as is the case in fruit trees, but if pro- per methods are followed, very good results may be obtained.â€"Jas. A. Neilson, dort. Exp. Station, Vineland SStation. (4) As Park Trees: City and rural parks should certainly have a collec- tion of native nut trees and some of the hardiest and best exotlc species. (5) As a Commercial Venture: In the warmest part of the Province of Ontario it might pay’ to establish, on a small scale, commercial plantations of the best varieties of black walnut, Japanese walnuts, hickories, blight- resistant chestnuts, and filberts. Kind of Nut Trees to Plant. Nut trees, like fruit trees, are dif- ficult to grow true to type from seed, and hence have to be propagated by budding or grafting. While it is quite true that one may get a very good tree by planting nuts from a desirable tree, it is also true that a considerable proportion of the trees so produced will not be any better or as good as their parent. Because of this uncertainty it is much better to plant budded or grafted trees of su- perior named varieties. beautiful home surroundings not only increase the value of a farm- property, but have a valuable influ- ence on the community in which the home is situated. by Nut Tree.“ “Are Desk-ebbâ€" Where They my Best be Grown- The Kind to Plumpâ€"The Trees Ma: be Top-grafted.

In the culture of roses, the quality of bloom depends not only upon good varieties and rich soil, but on a care.- ful system of pruning. One may chose between a cr0p of many small blooms er a smaller number of fine flowers. , Some varieties require harder pruning than others. but no rose bush should be allowed to pass the. spring without pruning. Bran- ches that have been damaged by the winter weather are no longer of use and should be removed. The small thin branches do not. produce bloom and they should also be taken out. If left on the bush they will take up the nourishment that should go to the stems producing roses. Besides removing the dead wood and the weak growths. 'the branches should; be shortened. It is a. very good rule,‘ with bushes that. are well establiâ€" shed to take off all wood that is smaller than a lead pencil. .In young bushes such hard pruning is not des- irable. When removing limbs they should be cut close. to the main stem that is without. leaving stumps. Strong growing Hybrid Perpetuals require less pruning than some of the other sorts, as if heavily pruned they tend: to a more vigorous growth of sappy wood. making an even larger bush than before. Moderate pruning is therefore better for roses of this class. [Tudor the head of pruning. Bulletâ€" in ;\'0. 17 of the Department, of Agric- ulturv at.

'- “Jamel Limited Since its creation in ' “90. the clock in the tower of the tow-i hall at Prague. has been the pride of the, :ity fathers. A legend, \‘omthed for as truth by many a Bohemian grayâ€" beard. is woven about thi: eloek. Upon completion 433 years :igcttm town elders feared that the wondrous clockmaker would place a duplicate of the work in some. rival city, The elders deliberated how theykould make sure _ that the elockmaker would not build a similiar clock for some other town. 'l‘hey decided to burn out the ehwkmaker‘s eyes. so that he. could never practice his handiC‘aft again. And so the clock- maker paid for his art with his sight. When the wounds had healed upon his scorched cycsockots the clack- maker sought out the most austere elder and said that. ho wished to repair a slight immrfoctinn in the clock. After he had burn led to the clock the clockmaker drew a heavy bar from lwnvath his cloak and swung it with full l'orrv at. the Cluck. The blow, reinforced by the clock- makor’s frenzied :iguny. tore away and batten-d part of tho sens‘tim mechanism. Craftsmvn won-o sumâ€" moned from far and wide. They tried in vain to repair the damage. For four hnn‘llrml years the clock did not bndgv.
