lorticultura That no one. however great Ills genius or high bls position. Is all-im- portant to the world; its work will go on without him. Tit's truth may be painful to personal vanity, but It is comforting to every gen rous soul that cares more for others than for self. FLANT ORCHARDS IN AUTUMN That there Is not In human nature a more odious disposition than a prone- liess to contempt, which Is a mixture of pride and ill-nature. Nor is there any which more certainly denotes a had mimi, for in a good and benign temper there can be no room for this sensation. Fruit Grewing Should Be Looked Upon as Long-Time Business En terprise and Exacting. The unusually profitable returns that commercial growers realized from their orchards last year, coupled with the even greater returns that ap- poor to be certain this year, undoubt- edly will lead many to consider seri ously the advisability of setting an orchard. The writer of this article wishes neither to encourage nor dis courage such plantings. There is oc casion, however, for calling attention to several facts that have been estab lished by experience. The first of these is that fruit growing should be looked upon as a long-time business enterprise. Tn addition to the original investment at the time of starting the orchard there is a six to eight year period during which the grower not only has to wait for returns but when he must add constantly to his original investment through care devoted to his trees. The fruit grower Is fortu nate Indeed whose orchard at bearing age does not represent an outlay nt lenst twice as great as that represent ed by cost of land, nursery stock and planting right after it has been plant- ed. In the second place orcharding Is an exacting business. Not only year after year, but month after month, the trees need attention in the way of cul tivation, spraying, borer and rabbit protection, etc. This care must be given them continuously from the time of setting as long as the orchard lusts, if profitable returns are to be expect ed. Any prospective grower who is unwilling to provide this constant care Is to be advised to stay out of the orchard business, for otherwise he Is certain to have little but disappoint ment as a reward for his half-way ef forts. Ill-advised planting Is expen sive for the Individual and an injury to the Industry. Those who are to plant orchards would do weil to make all arrange ments to plant in the fall rather than in the spring. This means that the land should be thoroughly prepared and the nursery stock ordered so that planting can start In late October. Fall-set trees do much better under Missouri conditions than trees planted in the spring. There is a smaller amount of loss of trees and the growth of the first two seasons is larger and more vigorous. Furthermore It Is gen erally easier to obtain good grade nursery stock of the desired varieties than in the spring when supplies are more or less depleted. The University of Missouri College of Agriculture will be glad to make suggestions regarding varieties, the choice of soils and locations, and many other details connected with the business, whenever this Information is requested by the prospective grower.
