278 STATE POMOLOGICAL SOCIETY, 



GENERAL CONCLUSIONS. 



We cannot rucake rules for making, handling and using manure, for all tbe 

 soils, crops, markets, and especially labor, must be taken into account. The 

 plan that would be prohtable for one would not for another. There are a fevr 

 general principles that we can use, modifying them to suit our various circum- 

 stances. Keeping up and increasing the fertiHty of the soil is one of the most 

 important questions, financially, to the tiller of the soil. It is a matter we can 

 all study with profit.
