pnn «alp IF A MAN CAN’T EARN AT LEAST £3OO A TEAR ON A FRUIT FARM. THAT SAME MAN WOULDN’T BE WORTH 30s A WEEK TO THE AVERAGE CITY EMPLOYER. On a fruit farm nature does llio 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 bo said to bo standardized, and tbore are a few simple rules tbat 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 Government Department to help you along. The rules a would-be-successful grower must observe are; Ist. —Ho 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 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 the healthy appetite that the out-of-door life develops. •RUBY.--B.AI Yf 18 WHERE YOU OUGHT TO OWN AN ORCHARD.
