France started free delivery 70 years ago,
England 50 years ago. The same sys

to Mr. Shelley's whereabouts, lie and

It is estimated that an ordinary apple
cron removes from an acre of soil aliout
50 pounds of nitrogen, 40 pounds of
nhosnhoric acid and 72 pounds of
not-ish. When clover is crown in the
orchard the land is benefited by having
its proportion of nitrogen increased, but
it. will gain nothing in mineral matter.
The land devoted to apples should re
cieve fertilizer or manure every year,
and when there is a heavy crop of ap-
nles in siaht the fruit should he thinned
out in the early stages of growth.
