Nuts For Planting. — Gather the nuts ( walnuts, hickory nuts, 

 pits of peaches, etc.), place in a rough bag and bury in the garden 

 about a foot deep. By the time the frost is well out of the ground 

 in spring, the shells will have burst, and the nuts can be placed in a 

 bed specially prepared for them or put where the trees are to stand. 



Treatment of Frozen Fruit Trees.— The recent cold weather 

 killed some fruit trees completely and injured many others. Some 

 of the tender varieties were killed back to the main trunk, while with 

 varieties a little more hardy only the tips of the branches were de- 

 stroyed. In calling attention to this, the Ohio experiment station 

 states that the best thing that can be done is to remove all parts 

 that are seriously affected. It is well to wait until it is possible to 

 determine about how much injury has been done, as shown by the 

 discolored wood and shriveled bark; usually one warm spell is suf- 

 ficient. It is possible to defer the work too long, as the frozen wood 

 seems to have a deleterious effect upon the sound parts if not re- 

 moved before growth commences. During March and April the 

 pruning should be done.
