Transplanting Cedars; Trouble with Pears 
1. V ill you tell me how to set out 
young cedar trees? I have set out some, 
and they have died. T dug some up from 
the pasture to put in my yard. 1 just 
dug a hole aixl si t them in the ground as 
I took them up. Sonic one told me you 
must cut olV the roots and split the bot¬ 
tom of the tree and pack il with stable 
dressing. Is there any truth in that? 
What time of the year do you set them 
out? 2. I have two peat* trees. When 
the pears are half grown they get ail 
covered with brown spots on the outside 
and drop off the tree. Can you tell me 
what is the cause of that and what to do 
for it ? MBS. e. I.. F. 
Rehobotli. Mass. 
Young cedar trees may be most satis¬ 
factorily set out in the early Spring, 
before^ growth has started, but'after the 
frost is out of the ground. They may 
also be transplanted in August or Sep¬ 
tember after growth has ceased. In dig¬ 
ging them up from the pasture try to get 
as much root as possible, and above all. 
do not fail to get a large number of the 
little root, hairs. Long cumbersome roots, 
without root hairs, may very well be re¬ 
moved, hnt do not cur off any roots which 
have attached to them any large number 
of rootlets. Tlir tiny rootlets or root 
hairs are the feeders. I see no reason 
for splitting the bottom of the tree; in 
fact. I would advise against it. Such 
treatment would only weaken the tree, 
and give an opening for the spores of 
wood-destrnyiug fungi. While the little 
tree is being transported from the pas¬ 
ture to the place where yon expect it to 
grow, it is worth while to protect the 
roots against unnecessary drying. The 
rootlets of Coniferous trees are easily 
killed by drying and hy unnecessarily 
long exposure to the sunlight. A piece 
of wet burlap is very satisfactory with 
which to tightly wrap rhe roots while the 
tree is being carried nr while it is await¬ 
ing an opportunity to he set out. Before 
unwrapping the roots prepare a hole at 
least twice Hie circumference necessary 
easily to accommodate the roots. Well- 
rotted stable manure may be very ad¬ 
vantageously mixed with the soil which 
is to be packed around the tree. Plant 
the tree at approximately the same depth 
as that which it grew in the pasture. 
Every handful or shovelful of dirt which 
is replaced in the hole should be packed 
down firmly. Do not allow any air cham¬ 
bers to remain near the roots. Occa¬ 
sional dippersful of water poured into 
the hole will help. Pack the dirt hard 
with your feet if necessary. A tree should 
lie treated gently during the process of 
transportation, hut when one begins to 
firm the fresh earth around the roots. 
"hint ’em roitt/h This will insure con¬ 
tact with the soil beneath so that mois¬ 
ture may rise through their capillary at¬ 
traction, After the tree is in place and 
the dirt is tight around the roots, a light 
mulch of pulverized soil may very well he 
worked up around its base. Such a 
mulch will help prevent undue loss of 
soil moisture through evaporation. 
2. Probably the best way to take care 
of the pear trees which you describe will 
he to prune oil' all dead and diseased 
wood and follow with a lime-sulphur 
spray if the tree is still dormant. If the 
leaves have begun to appear, use Bor¬ 
deaux mixture, 0 . n. c.
