About Your Home
/ i
If you want gooc home
grown fruit you must care (or
plants that are to produce it
Many of us plant a couple of
apple trees, a {tape vine or
two and sit back and wait for
our hardest This is idle
dreaming
You must know what'
needs to be done to your
fruit trees and when to do it.
This is even more important
when growing fruit than with
vegetable farming. If you
make a mistake with vege
table*. you start all over the
next year anyway. Fruit trees
are bought and planted to
give pleasure year after year.
I nforjn yourself before
you plant your fruit trees.
The best source of informa
tion is your state agricultural
experiment station. Here you
can learn tbe varieties beat
adapted to your particular
locality, tbe spray schedule to
folio* and any other infor
mation you may need
Almost all fruits grow well
rim fertile loamy soil that is
well drained. They need
plenty of sunlight
Make sure you get vigo
rous healtby. planting stock
of desirable age to plant.
Never buy older stock. This
old stock, sometimes offered
to the public, does not pay.
tTnpack<plant shipments as
soon as they arrive froirt the
nursery If the plants are at
all dry. soak the roots in
water for a few hours before
planting.
