sold none except to neighbors, of
which I kept no record. But we hare
had an abundance of very excellent
fruit ourselves. I should say that for
the past five years I have sold as much
as $10 per year.
We have had for six years all the
grapes we wanted to use, and for the
last four years I have sold an aver-
age of 1.000 poun’ds at two cents per
pound, which is $20 per year, above
family use.
The apples are Just now beginning
to do something good. I have been
getting a small quantity for the last
four years, but since they were seven
years old they have supplied the table,
plenty for winter, and an occasional
treat for the neighbors.
In the last three years I have sold
above what we used, an average of
one bushel to the tree, ar from 50
cents to one dollar per bushel or about
$25 per year, for the last three years.
From now on they will do much bet-
ter.
As to profits, the total orchard has
furnished plenty of fruit for our fami-
ly. and an average of $130 for the
last four years. Of course I laid out
the use of the land practically for the ,
first six or seven years, and was out
some little expense of handling, but I
think I received pay for all that from
keeping poultry on this land.

Experiments to Prove the Value of
Different Methods.
The following experiment in prun-
ing Kieffer pear trees was made last
season and will be repeated to deter-
mine the relative value of time when
to rune, writes an Indiana farmer in
Farmers' Review:
Experiment No. 1—One-half all new-
wood w-as cut back before any sign of
the bud expanding in the spring.
Experiment No. 2—Same was done
to other trees when buds were ready
to open.
Experiment No. 3—When in full
bloom and ready to drop the bloom
other trees were cut back one-half.
Nothing further was done, the trees
needing no pruning otherwise.
Now for results: they were just in j
the order as was the pruning. Those
trees pruned early gave the best fruit 1
this year and the wood growth was
good. Those pruned second did not do |
as well as the preceding, neither in
fruit nor wood. The third lot gave
poor fruit and but little wood growth.
This is only one trial. There may |
have been other causes for this re-
sult. but we expect to continue the
same process another season to de-
termine the matter more fully. We
will also try the same process on
other varieties than Kieffer.

as indicated by the dotted line, insert
the rod, tighten and adjust the attach-

valuable trees are worth this little at-
tention when it is needed.

Castor Beans.
Castor beans are remarkably strik-
ing plants for the annual garden. They
give a rugged tropical effect when
planted in clumps or with rank grow-
ing annuals and perennials, such as
cannas and elephants ear. They should
occupy the center or back of the bed
unless they are dwarf vafletiea. In a
single season they often grow more
than ten feet tail. For extra large
plants the seeds should be sown in
pots in a greenhouse, hotbed or win-
dow when tomato plants are started.
But large plants will grow from see^
sown in the open ground when the
weather has become settled. A dry-
situation in deep and rich soil is best.
Among the most striking varieties are
Ricinus Zanzibariensis and R. Borbon-
iensis. which reach a height of 12 to
15 feet, and R. Cambodgensis, which
grows only about six feet tall but has
beautiful, bronzy foliage.
