As a result of our efiorts, numerous orchards, heretofore kept continuously in grass or grain, have received continuous, clean culture until. The last of August with marked bene'fit. Where suitable fertil izers were applied in conjunction with clean and continuous cul ture, the fruit has been most abundant and of superior quality. The benefits which have accrued and are certain to accrue from our teaching and investigations during this year, are soi great and far reaching that one hesitates to place a money value upon them.
