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.
