your fruit in clean, neat baskets. Serve your customers 

 honestly and promptly. Have your name plainly written 

 or i^rinted on your boxes of fruit ; and by following 

 these suggestions you will make fruit culture immensely 

 profitable. 



Plant trees (deciduous and evergreen) for ornament, and 

 plant them for the protection of your orchard trees, from 

 the sudden extreme changes of temperature and from the 

 great winds whilst covered with bloom in spring, and 

 fruit in summer and autumn. 



Farmers ! beautify your homes, grow plenty of fruit for 

 the family ; interest your children in fruit growing ; let 

 them have a share in the profits of fruit grown, and they 

 will stay at home, instead of going to a foreign cou!itry, 

 which they enrich with the fruits of their labor, without 

 amelioratinff their com ion.
