List of FRUIT TREES 
BRIEF HINTS ON PLANTING. —In planting Fruit Trees the ground should first be thoroughly trenched over and a good big 
hole dug for each tree, sufficiently large to admit of the roots being spread out flat at right angles to the stem, and about two feet deep. 
The hole should then be two-thirds filled with rich light loam, and on this the tree should be planted, having first cut away any broken 
or damaged portion of the root. Press the soil firmly amongst the roots, keeping the topmost ones to within a few inches of the surface, and 
when the hole is firm stake securely, taking care that the stake does not rub away the bark of the tree. A good top-dressing of farmyard 
manure will be beneficial, and if dry weather ensues copious watering should be given.
