the rows, or, if to be cultivated both ways, 5 
feet apart each way. The soil should be well 
cultivated. After planting, cut back the tops 
one-half of the previous year’s growth. For the 
first four or five years some of the wood made 
in the spring should be cut back in the fall, in 
order to make a more symmetrical plant and a 
greater number of fruit-buds. General Garden

plant will prove very beneficial.
