Gathering Pears.— One of the most important points in the management of Pears, is to gather them at the

Summer Pears should be gathered at least ten days before they are ripe, and Autumn Pears at least a fortnight. 

 Winter varieties, if they will hang so long, may be left until the leaves begin to fall. 



Thin the Fruit.— We cannot urge too strongly the following suggestion : When pear trees are heavily laden, 

 the fruit should be thinned when about one-third grown ; else the fruit will be poor and the trees injured,
