 down the soil. 



Plant from a pail containing soft mud. Set 

 the trees five feet apart each way. Make the 

 holes with a grub hoe. Dig deep enough to 

 allow the trees to stand a trifle lower than in 

 the transplant bed, and wide enough to allow 

 plenty of room for the roots. In setting the 

 plants, put the loose loam next to the roots. If 

 you have a sod, place it around the tree with the 

 grassy side down for a mulch. Now tramp the 

 soil thoroughly around the tree. For two or 

 three years replace dead trees with live ones 

 from the nursery.
