I FDR SALE. IF A MAN CAN’T EARN AT LEAST .£3OO A YEAR ON A FRUIT FARM. THAT SAME MAN WOULDN'T BE WORTH 80s A WEEK TO THE AVERAGE CITY EMPLOYER. On a fruit farm nature does the 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 aro growing and maturing. Fruit farming can be said to be standardized, a'nd there are a few simple rules that a grower must observe to bo a success. These rules are not bottled up in the brains of a few old growers. Even the newest beginner can learn very quickly ns much as the expert knows. There is a most capable Government 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. —He should keep the ground clean and the soil loose. 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 he 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 the healthy appetite that the out-of-door life develops. RUBY BAI Yr IS WHERE YOU OUGHT TO OWN AN ORCHARD,. That locality was chosen by the leading fruitgrowers for their own farms and needs little further recommendation. Their reasons in selecting Ruby Bay were mainly, suitability of soil, freedom from late frosts, absence of high winds, accessibility, and the natural charm and beauty of the place.
