GRAPE VINES 
Other crops may fail but you never lose all the Grapes—unless the boys get them. 
Grapes are a sure crop. Vines bear every year, need little attention except training, lots 
of sunshine, and plenty of plant food. In the home garden, use sheep manure or ‘bone 
meal; in the vineyard, use well-rotted manure.

Fertilizers For All Kinds of Plants 
As Experienced Fruit Growers We Suggest 
That you plan for a succession of fruit, increasing quantities where you expect to market 
or store. It is inadvisable to plant too many varieties in the average orchard. There is no 
reason why you cannot have fresh fruit from the time that cherries ripen in May until well 
into the winter. We will help you plan your list if you will ask us. 
That you cultivate your newly planted trees, for it is just as important to cultivate them 
as it is to cultivate a tomato or tobacco plant. Only after the tree has become well established 
should cultivation stop. Even then, your trees will respond to fertilization and cultivation. 
That you feed young trees to promote health and vigor. Nitrate of soda, sulphate of am- 
monia, bone meal, manures, or similar soil-builders applied in moderation often spell the 
difference between success and failure. Strong, vigorous trees can stand unfavorable weather 
conditions, frost, and even disease. Good soil means early maturity and heavy yields. 
That where space is scarce, you plant quick-maturing trees like Peach, Plum, and Cherry, 
in the center of the squares between late-maturing trees. The former should be taken out 
when the permanent trees begin to crowd. Don’t plant too closely. 
That you renew your plantings of Peach trees every four or five years to keep a continued 
crop coming on. 
HOW TO PRUNE. In pruning Apple, 
Plum, Cherry, and Pear trees, cut the side 
branches to 6- to 8-inch stubs and do 
not leave more than five to a tree. See 
that these are distributed around the 
trunk. The Peach tree requires a little 
more severe pruning. One-year trees are 
simply headed to whatever height they 

Heeling In Trees 
and Shrubs 
Heel in your trees as soon as 
received. Dig a trench deep 
enough and wide enough to take 
the root-system and then cover 
the roots, firming the soil so as 
to contact each root. If some 
of the trunk (or branches, in 
case of shrubs) is covered with 
soil, the protection is double. 
A little water applied to dry 
soil is helpful. Trees heeled in 
may be kept several weeks in 
perfect condition.
