A considerable portion bas already been planted, and, although occupying a very exposed p6sition,!the young trees are strong and vigorous, and in excellent condition for planting out. THE SOIL In that quarter of the nursery where fruit trees and other deciduous plants are mostly grown, is. a light sandy loam, and remarkable for causing the. young stock to make fibrous roots— one of the best guarantees for the success of a young tree when transplanted.
