Fill in Under the Newly Planted Tree.—It is very important when you 
have your trees set that there be no loose or open spaces under the stem. 
When you have your tree partially set, the outer ends of the roots made firm, 
in very many cases directly under the center of the stem there is more or 
less open space for air, which should be thoroughly filled before filling the 
hole any more. There are two ways of doing this. If dry I prefer filling in 
around the tree on the outside the hole, till when it is stamped down it 
will be lower near the stem; then turn in water and fine earth and see that 
the water settles the fine earth or thin mud down and under the center of 
the stem. This properly done will firm the earth about and under the stem 
better than can be done with fingers.—Edson Gaylord.
