We so fully accord with the subjoined ‘Hints For TRANSPLANTING,’ by the Messrs.
Downing, that we copy them entire, and submit them to our readers without any remark
of our own, except to recommend that the tops of the trees should be shortened at the
time of planting.

HINTS FOR TRANSPLANTING.

I. Many persons plant 2 tree as they would a post’ Thenovice in planting must consider
that a tree is a living, nicely-organized production, as certainly affected by good treatment
as an animal. Many an orchard of trees, rudely thrust into the ground, struggles half a
dozen years against the adverse condition before it recovers.

II. In planting an orchard, let the ground be made mellow by repeated ploughing. For
a tree of moderate size the hole should be dug three feet in diameter, and twelve to twenty
inches deep. Turn over the soil several times, and, if not rich, mix thoroughly with it
some compost, or well-rotted manure. In every instance, the hole must be large enough to
admit all the roots easily, without bending. Shorten and pare smoothly with a knife, any
bruised or broken roots. Hold the tree upright, while another person, making the earth fine,

‘gradually distributes it among the roots. Shake the tree gently while this filling is going on.
The main secret lies in carefully filling-in the mould, so that every root and even the smail-
est fibre may meet the soil; and to secure this let the operator with his hand spread ont the

| small roots, and fill-in the earth, nicely, around every one. Nine tenths of the deaths by
transplanting arise from the hollows left among the roots of trees by a rapid and care-

less mode of shovelling the earth among the roots. 5

III. When the hole is two thirds filled, pour in a pail or two of water. This will settle
the soil and fill up any little vacuities that may remain. Wait until the water has sunk
away and then fill up the hole, pressing the earth moderately around the trees with the
foot The moist earth, being covered by the loose surface soil, will retain its humidity for |
along time. Indeed, we rarely find it necessary to water again after planting in this way,
and a little muck or litter placed around the tree, upon the newly-moved soil, will render |
it quite unnecessary. Frequent surface-watering is highly injurious, asit causes the top of |
the soil to bake so hard as to prevent the access of air and light, both of which, in a cer-
tain degree, are absolutely necessary.

IV. Avoid the prevalent error (so common and so fatal in this country) of planting your
trees too deep. They should not be planted more than an inch deeper than they stood |
before. If they are likely to be thrown out by the frost the first winter, heap a little mound
about the stem, to be removed again in the spring.

V. If your soil is positively bad, remove it from the holes, and substitute a cartload or
two of good garden-mould. Do not forget that plants must have Foop. Five times the
common growth raay be realized by preparing holes six feet in diameter and twice the
usual depth, enriching and improving the soil by the plentiful addition of good compost.
Young trees cannot be expected to thrive well in sod /and. When a young orchard must
be kept in grass, a circle should be kept.dug around each tree. But cultivation of the land
will cause the trees to advance more rapidly in five years than they will in ten, when it is
allowed to remain in grass

HARDY ROSES. 19

HARDY ROSES.

Tue Rose is held in such universal favor, and admiration, that it
is unnecessary to say any thing in its praise. It is such a favorite
that it has won for itself the distinguished title of “ FLoraL QuEEN.”
The great attention, which it has attracted both in Europe and this
Country, has increased and multiplied the list of its varieties to an
extent difficult to keep pace with. It adapts itself to the universal
conditions of man, in all parts of the world. We find it surrounding
the dwellings of the humble and the exalted; shedding its perfumes
alike on the inmates of the Hut and the Palace, unconscious of dis-
tinction. It will flourish in any soil, or location, and its culture is
simple and easy. An annual fa// pruning out of the old wood, and
shortening those branches which have grown too long, is all that is
necessary to ensure a good display of bloom, as a reward for this small
trouble. Many are well adapted for Runners, and make a beautiful
covering for Arbors, Porticos, Walls, etc.

The small collection here offered is deemed to be a good selection,
to which, however, large additions will be made this Fall by impor-
tation.
