SALK. rF A MAN CAN’T EARN AT LEAST <£Boo I , YEAR ON A FRUIT FARM. THAT SAMI MAN WOULDN’T BE WORTH 80s A WEE! TO THE AVERAGE CITY EMPLOYER. On a fruit farm nature does tie bulk of the work. You’ve only to direct nature to your own requirements. When you’re asleep, or indoors because it’s too wet to be out and about, your trees and fruit are growing and maturing. Fruit farming can be said to be standardized, and there are a few sample rule* that a grower must observe to be a success. These rules are not bottled up in the brains of a few old growers. Even the newest beginner can learn very quickly as much as the expert knows. There is a most capable f—wernment Department to help you along. . The rules a would-be-successful grower must observe are; Ist.—He must have the right kind of soil in a suitable locality. 2nd. —He must select the right kind of trees to plant and must observe the ordinary rules of planting—easily ascertainable. 3rd.—Ho should keep the ground clean and the soil loqge. 4th.—He must look after his trees. ■ Prune them and keep them free from pests—not at all a very difficult matter. There is little more to be said except that a fruitgrower can make additionally good, money in keeping poultry, bees, and growing vegetables, etc. It costs him very little to live notwithstanding t healthy appetite that the out-of-door life develops. RUBY BAY IS WHERE YOU OUGHT TO OWN AN ORCHARD. That locality was chosen by the leading fruitgrowers for their own farins and needs little further recommendation.
