A WAGENEH (STANDARD) TREE. FIVE YEARS PLANTED 



If the subsoil is- of a somewhat loamy character, exploding 

 a half-stick of dynamite two feet under the soil, will open and 

 loosen it admirably. Another method, at less cost, is to plow 

 deep open furrows in line with the stakes, when with a little 

 shoveling out of the soil, the trees may be planted. 



The trees should be set three inches deeper than they stood 

 in the Nursery. Roots should be spread, and the earth pressed 

 very firmly over them. Every tree thus planted should grow.
