Pruning and spray- | for the cider pres: ing are the remedies, effective with the most patriarchal apple trees, as shown by the fruit harvested at the Marshall farm, and by their proper application apparently worthless trees may be converted into a valuable holding. that the New England_ farmer is just now learning how to farm. The e: hibition ot apples recalls that a youn: farmer in the southern part of the town has made a special study of fer- tilization, reaching every government publication on the subject and keeping himself abreast of the results of gov- ernment experimentation. He has in this way greatly increased the produc- tiveness of his farm. He also conducts | fed according to the wisdom of gov- | ernment experts. The result has been | a much greater supply of lacteal fluid than under the old, haphazard | methods. | When the value of the resulis of day of the abandoned New England farm will be at an end, for. as demonstrated at the Hale and Col man orchards there is hardly any kind of land that cannot be made to pay a handsome income if the problem of making it pay is approached from the right angle. People who have had suc- cess in following the advice of the scientists find it’ difficult, however, to convince the older type of the farmer of the advisability of new methods, and it is because of that the fguit from M Marshall's fifty-year-old apple trees is a novelty. is i Merriment a Cheap Medicine.
