D, SPERRY T o.th e Growers oí Fruit. E ditor H e ral d : In my second article I spoke of pruning apple trees, and as the time is at hand to do the work, 1 shall remind the small-fruit growers of taking up the necessary pruning of all small fruit, such as goose berries, raspberries and others of this kind, and also currants. Top all your berry plants heavy, and traiii pipes or Btems where you wish them to grow and tie them to stay; have ail last year’s growth removed and dead leaves and litter cleaned up from under your plants and refuse burned. Never allow such to lay around and produce fungus diseases or harbor insects. Currants and oth er berries over run by small green worms should be sprayed with white hellebore. Take otie large table B]>oonful of hellebore dissolved in two and one half gallous o f water; spray just before bloom ing and again after fruit has set. Straw berries should be worked and clean ed before grow ing begins in the spring of grass and week roots mat ted with the strawberry roots, should you neglect .to work them in time you will injure your plants to such an extent that your crop will be greatly reduced.
