In keeping with our fruit mania, ire
' thsll continue urging farmers In Ne-
- braska to plant fruit trees, and to give
til the evidence we can get hold of In
favorof this enterprise: An cli friend
and sehool-mate cf ours, Dr. 11. L.
,Uartesr ttlll residing in our native
town, Troy, Ohio, made a vi-ut the
past fall to Egypt Illinois, and writes
homo to the paper of his town, the
- IHama Union, from OJin, III., under
' date of December 21, 1SC3, a lengthy
and interesting letter in regard to the
country. The greater portion of his
letter is devoted to giving an account
of the . euccess and extent of fruit
growing. "We copy that portion of It
entire, hoping our readers will read it
with as much pleasure and encourage
ment J we did. The character of the
country he describes as producing such
mnrnlccnt results fa the same as that
along the llissouri river in our State
known as "Blalls." Trees planted
her in this town twelve years ago,
have given like returns. We have no
hesitancy in predicting that now un
cultivated, rough lands, as we term
them, along the river, will eventually
be the most valuable and productive,
becausa cf their adaptability to fruit
growing.
The following is an extract from Dr.
Harter's letter:
"About forty miles north of Cairo a
"chair, cf MIL" nearly sixteen miles
wide runs from the Ohio xiver on the
cast to tta Mississippi river on the
wust. i nssenms are covered on eith
er fide of the railroad with as thritfy
growing and aa fine a variety of fruit
trees ana grape vines as can be found
in the Unitea States. AH the lands,
hill and prairie, from Villa Itidge,
twelve miles north of Cairo, to Cea
tralia, one hundred and twelve miles
on the Illinois Central are more or less
planted in fruit trees and are produc
ing annually Immense crops of ap
ples, pears ,. peaches, grapes, raspber
ries, currants and strawberries.
The boil of the prairies is a rich black
loam. That of the hills is a rich clay
loam, resting on a drift deposit of light
friable clay, rich with all the mineral
constituent that support vegetable
life. Fruit trees ana vines grow and
mature with unparalleled rapidity,
and produce large crops of fruit when
young, ditltring in this reepect from
til other localities. The healthfulnees
cf the trees and-the perfection of the
wood growth is remarkable and ac
counts for their early bearing. For
early apples three varieties are culti
vated with great profit, izz The
Crrolina lied June, Bed Astrachan.
and Early Harvest. The apple and
pear orchards have been planted from
ten to -fourteen "years. The peach,
grape and strawberry from six to eight
years. Now mor than five hundred
acres sro planted in. strawberries
The greatest fruit region in Egypt Is
from Joncsboro to Carbondale. on the
Illinois CentraL a distance of snarly
tvt-aty miles. I will give you the
amount of fruit shiped from a f&w
stations In 1SGG, copied from the rail
road iicnta books. Cobden -peaches,
fix -hundred tons; strawberries, ae

Blackberries, two tons. To tell of one

At MakanJa .station, six tons of
peaches, four "hundred barrels of ap
ples, one hundred and fifty bu&hels of

thousand boxes of peaches, one thou

number of trees growing in the vicin

At Makanda station, one hundred and

grapes, the Concord, Norton's Virgin

ciue .to great perfection.
During the long, dry, warm season,

Cl.1 and Dunleith furnish a
ready market for ail kinds of fruit3.
Aa the fruits ripen here two weeks
earlier than other places, they are sure
of the highest prices for the first fruits
of the rear-on. The Illinois Central
rans an cxpre 3 "fruit train," with
ventihlile i can, daily, 'from Cairo to
Chicago. ' Daring the peach season a
fruit train is loaded daily with reaches
alone. I have given you the &ir side
of fruit pro wi n in Egyp t. I will gi ve
some of the difiicul ties and drawbacks.
There has been one total failure of
the peach and a partial one of the
pear on the hills, while there waa a
good crop on the prairies. Without
ViOrmigh earhf cultivation, and litaxy
mulching trilh strait, when the dry
season comes they do not expect large
crops. Sometimes late fpnng frosts
nip the strawberry in bloom and the
severe drought will injure the crop if
not properly cultivated and protected
with straw or saw dusL
Band that could have been pur
chased eight years since for$oto$10an
acre is new telling at from $100 to
per acre.
Aside from the information as to the
extent of fruit growing in the region
referred to, the above letter contains
some valuable points as to essential
requisites, viz : The character of the
soil, the manner of cultivating, and
the variety of fruits. It is true that
they now have market facilities that
we have not. They, however, planted
bf.fore they had market facilities, and
you, farmers of Nebraska, will have
abundant market facilities by the time
your trees and vines will be in full
bearing.
Crab Apples.
Fruit growers are just now paying
considerable attention to Crab Apples.
If we were asked to define a Crab Ap
ple we should he much puzzled, as tne
subject, both in pomolo$rieal books
and in nurseries, Is "rather mixed."
The term is applied to the wild state
of our cultivated apple fyrxs jiaivs).

pruni folia and P. baccata), end two
native f pedes of ar pre ( ewonarid
and P. anymtifolia.) More thaa this,

waxen looking fru-t from which tn

in GistinguLsaingauraa Ar t!?, 13
was the Small Siberian Crab (P. bac
cata.) Then came the Barge Siberian,
both red and yellow, which was like
the other in roost respects, except
tnattne fruit was larger ana the calyx
remained. This is the Siberian Plmn-
leaved Apple Tree (P. pruni folia.)
Of th sorts more lately introduced,
tne origin is uouotiui. leaving nom
ologist to settle knotty points, we may
say that those apples which have, so
to speak, Siberian blood in them are
hardy and productive, and though
the fruit Is not always of the first qual
ity it is generally good for cookinc.
and the trees by their hardiness are
especially suited to cold climates.
1-rom tne great beauty and rrofu-
sion of the fruit the Crabs are worthy
of cultivation as ornamental trees,
while at the same time, the apples
will be found excellent for preserves
and jellies. We enumerate the most
prominent varieties: Currant Crab.

showy both in fruit and flower. SmaU

are tne Kinas reierred to above as
dropping the calyx ; very showy in
fruit. Large Pea and Larae Yellow
Crab. These bear fruit about twice
the size of the foregoing, do not drop
the calyx, and the trees also have dif
ferently shaped leaves.
Transcendent Crab. Said to have
been discovered on Long Island. A
great bearer, with most beautiful fruit
and withstands the severest cold of
our northernmost localities. The fore
going are ripe in September and Octo
ber. We have now a winter crab,
which is said to keep until spring,
called the Marengo Winter Crab. This
is very strongly advocated by the pro
prietor, who brinjrs good testimony in
favor of its quality. We have not
seen tne mm.

variety, which has been supposed to
oe or xiussian origin, out nr. boulard,
in the Gardeners Monthly for Julv
last, gives its history; A thicket of
native crab Apple trees near St. Louis,
Mo., was cut down, and another croD
of trees afterwards snruntr un. in
which was found the variety now
known aa the Soulard. He supposes
it to be a hybrid between the Wild
Crab (Pjrus coronaria) and the culti
vated apple. Said to be very fine for
cooking and with care to keen for two
years.
Our Wild Crabs, so beautiful In
flower and foliage, bears a fruit of
marked fragrance, but of little value.
We learn that an improved seedling
of it has been exhibited in Canada,
but 110 particulars are given concern
ing Its qualities. Twricai Agricul
