After a lapse of several years, section
of country has been blessed with an abun
dant crop of fruit of nearly all kinds, the'
rust year ; and I have endeavored by circa- '
tars addressed to the Chairman of each
, .
county and other memhers who are inter
ested m fruit growing, to' get information
and advice in regard to the different varie
ties of fruit to plant, their cultivation and
care, modes of planting, trimming and
pruning, preservation from disease, de
struction of injurious insects, Situation and
soil for orchards, the keeping and ripening
of fruits, dte, and have received a number
of answers, but they have not been So gen
erally responded to as 1 . , had' hoped from
which, and other information, I make the
following report:
No. 1. Armrs—Best 12 varieties, ripen
ing as follows: 3, Summer-3,Fa11-6, Win
ter—with description and outline drawings
of now sorts.
Sunnier—Red Astrachan Bough. Full
—Maiden Blush, Porter, ' White Debtor.
Winter—Fallawater, Smith's Cider, Bald
win, Smoke House, Ridge Pippin, Long
Island Russctt.
In addition to the above, I would present
to the notice of the Society, some varieties
which, having but a local reputation, and
not generally known, have not been re
commended SR much as those above named
and desire their trial : Conells, Taney,
Knoub's Easly,,Jelreries, Summer liagloo,
Summerßambo, Carver, MeLellan,Prinee
ly Irish Pippin and Jackson. Also, anew
largo early apple called the Starr, from
Woodbury, New Jersey, whichwas brought
to the notice of the Fruit Committee of the
Pennsylvania Horticultural Society and
reported favorably.
N 0.2. Onounnns.—liow prepared, plan
ted and cultivated, and best situation.
It is recommended to prepare the ground
with deep fallow in corn and potatoes, well
manurod the previous season; plow deep 1
and plant 30 feet apart, cultivate well with
potatoes or other low growing crops, to keep
the soil open and mellow; afterwards keep
in good condition by manuring frequently,
not allowing the ground to remain in grass
more than ono or two years at i% time; for
by lotting it remain in grass, the roots are
encouraged to come near the surface, and
then plowing deep and cutting them oft*,
the trees are much more injured than by
frequent shallow cultivation.
Best situation—A good loan soil well
drained, with protection from the cold
winds, by natural or artificial shelter. Some
recommend planting when the rains cause
frequent surlace deposits ; neither cultiva
tion nor manuring are needed under these
circumstances.
N 0.3. PEAR.S.—Best 12 varieties (Stand
ards)'ripening as follows: 3, Sommer-6,
Fall-3, Winter.
Sunietcr—Doyennedelto, Oshand's Sum
mer, Tyson.
Pall—Bartlett, Siekel, Bell Lucretia,
Howell, Urbanist, Sheldon.
IVinter—Lawrence is the only one gener
ally recommended, but some notice the
Vicar of Wakefield and Winter Netis.
To those desiring a larger collection I
would recommend the Juliana. Brandy
wine, Manningm Elizabeth, Boyer Bosmie
Bourrodaym, Bourre Bose, Bud Min, J. Rut
ter. _ .
No. 4. Pi:Luis—Best (3 varieties (Dwarfs.)
Mauning's Elizabeth, Bell Lucrative,
Buffalo, Duteliess (I'Angoulenie,
Vicar of Wakefield.
No. 5. STANDARD TREES.—II ,, w planted,
with the preparation of the soil and after
culture.
Santo as for other Orchards except closer
planted, 20 to 25 feet apart.
No. 6. DIVA.ItF TllittES.—.lltne planted tool
cultivated, and are they profitable for gen
eral culture.
Ground prepared by plowing and sub
soiling. The pear should be budded near
the root of the quince so that the point of
union can be covered with earth, without
planting very deep, thus preventing the
borer from entering the quince. IL cep the
soil well cultivated.
In cities and sheltered situations, with
good clean culture, they have sometimes
boon profitable, but have not generally
proved successful.
No. 7. PEACIIEN.—Bemt 10 varieties, with
the preparation of Fite soil, how planted and
pruned, and how to prevent the yellows
and curl of the loaf.
HAWS Early, Large Early York Susque
hanna, Smock Troh Early, Old Itilixen
Free, Stump the World, Crawford Early,
Ward's Late Free, Crawford Late.
Dry, warm soil and well cultivated,
seems essential to success in peach grow
ing. Plant from 15 to 20 feet apart, prune
with low heads; no prevention or cure for
the yellows, but to destroy all trees as soon
as they appear diseased, thus preventing it
from spreading to others, which it is
thought it does, by the polen of the blos
som and by contact with the roots. Curl of
the leaf is thought to be produced by cold,
early in the spring, and that shelter pre
vents it. It is also stated that the yellows
will nutaoon aired the trees on light, dry,
sandy soil in any climate whore the mer
cury does not MD below zero.
No. S. QUINCES.—Which are the best and
most profitable varieties, how cultivated
end how to prevent attacks of the borer.
Orange is recommended as the best ; the
Augurs is a later variety and the fruit keeps
better than the Orange,and sometimes suc
ceeds well.
Prevent the borers by wrapping tarred
felt, such as is used for roofs of buildings
round the tree 8 inches above the ground
and 2 beneath, in the spring, remove in the
fall to harden the wood.
No. 9. PLUMS, APRICOTS ANI, NECTAR
INES.—Which aro the best varieties, how
cultivated and how to prevent the black
knot and the attacks of the curculio.
/Yam—Yellow Gage, Jefferson and Rich
land.
Apricots—Moorpark, Breda and. Peach.
Nectarines—Not much cultivated on ac
count of the trees being generally destroyed
by the curculio.
The Yellow Gage in the list above is a
distinct fruit from the old variety of that
name; it is cultivated in Lancaster county,
and described as the earliest and most de
sirable of all their plums.
Black Knots—Begin in time and cult them
off and burn them, and they can be sub
dued. No known preventive from the Our-
Quito except jarring, shaking down on
sheets or cloths and destroying them and
being careful to prevent them from propa
gating from the fallen fruit which has been
stung.
No. M. CIIERMES.—WhieII are the best
varieties for table use and 3 for cooking,
and how to prevent the splitting of the bark
and black knots and the attacks of 'birds
and insects.
Best Six—Black Tartarian,. Gov. Wood,
Yellow Spanish, Purple (Ilium, Bleeding
Heart, May .Duke.
Three for ()Joking—Early Richmond,
English Morella, Late Kentish.
For cracking of the bark it is rocom
'mended, as a preventative, to slit it ill the
sixth month, but the killing of the bark on
the southwest side is generally \ caused by
the sun shining on the bark in Winter when
the tree is frozen and suddenly thawing it,
which can be prevented by heading low or
otherwise protecting it.
To prevent the attack of birds provide
plenty of fruit for the birds and you.qolves,
'and. it. is proposed to plant Mulberries of
early varieties of Mazzards for this purpose.
No. 11. ..N.yrtvE tin:kris...l.—Best varieties
for Gable use, best varieties for wine, with
description of new sorts, including the
wood, foliage and fruit.
Best Variety for Mble USG—Hartford
Prolific, Concord, Clinton, Martha.
For Wine—Clinton, Ives.
No description of newer varieties have
been received, but some of Rodgers' Seed
ling aro reported favorably of in some sec
tions, No. 5, 10, 82 and 42.
No. 12. Som.—How prepared, vines
planted and pruned, with after culture, best
form of trellis and host mode of keeping
grapes.
A good dry alluvial soil is considered
best. Clay soils do not do as well as those
of a looser nature prepared by plowing and
subsoiling. Give plenty of room on the
trellis, cut out the old and weak wood and
let the strong canes run and bear. A self
sustaining, self-bracing trellis is saidto an
swer a good purpose,: formed of chestnut
:poles 11 feet long, planted 8 feet apart, two
rows leaning towards each other and fitting
together at the top like rafters to a build
/-ing, and nailed to a strong board, the end
posts braced to the next one, then wires
stretched from end to end like the lath'on a
house. This trellis cannot fall down or blow
over, the vines run up its inclined sides and
fall over the other aide at the top which has
a tendency to check their growth.
No advice in regard to the keeping of
Grapes, except that they must be well
Frown before you undertake to pi them
by for keeping.
No. 14.
.IfonmoN GuArEs.—Best 6 varl-
oties, ripening, early, medium and late,
with the preparation of borders; pruning
and keeping the fruit..
Black Hamburg, Bowood Muscat and
Black Ilarbarose, aro recommended. Bor
ders completely undordrawn and com
posed of 1-3 Hand and 2-3 snrfaco soil and
sods. Cut out old stunted wood, and fruit
the strong canes.
No. 15. VINEIUES.-110W many are there
in your county, and how are they con
structed.
15 Vineries are reported from Chester
county, generally on the lean-to plan, 14 to
17 feet wide.

Pears require careful watching'; if in too
dry a place they wilt; if too damp they rot.
They may bo placed in a tight boa or chest

INQUIRY ABOUT TILE PIWIT CROP OP 1869.
The fruit crop of the past year was the
most abundant that we have had for a num
ber of years, though some varieties ofpear,
particularly the Bartlett did not bear as
well as it usually does, as it generally
bloomed profusely. It is a subjeCt of inquiry
whether under such circumstances the vi
tality of the tree is so-drawn upon and the
roots owing to the coldness of the ground
not properly performing their functions
that the blossoms do not set their fruit; the
same thing occurs frequently with the
Duchess d'Angoulemepear which blossoms
often profusely on the new wood, to remedy
which the blossom buds will have to be
taken oil, or the tree pruned, so as to lessen
the number of buds to expand.
The extreme beat of the latter part of the
summer caused the fruit to ripen up before
its proper season, consequently it did not
keep well.
As the value of a general report will de
pend very much on the materials from
which it is made, which aro the reports
front the various counties and from indi
viduals, while I cordially thank those mem
bers who have furnished. reportal doubt the
propriety of making up and recording lists
of fruits for cultivation, extending to ern
! brace the whole of this 'section of the State,
without more information on this subjec
than has been given.
And I would recommend to fruit grow
ers, to test new fruits as they are brought
to their notice, in order to get the best of the
different kinds; but not to recommend any
variety until they have given it a fair trial.
Respectfully submitted,
SAMUEL W. NOBLE.
Chairman of General Fruit Committee.
Jenkentown, 1 Mo., 18th, 1870.
After the transaction of Some business of
minor importance, an interesting discus
sion arose respecting the matter contained
in the above reportthe topics being taken
up and debated seriatim. In the course of
the debate the Primate, Townsend and
Early Harvest varieties of the Apple were
highly recommended by different members
Mr cultivation. Mr. C. Miller stated the
Early Harvest had not done well In Lan
caster county, that the None Such was a
better variety.. After much debate as to
the propriety of endorsing the suggestions
and conclusions embodied in the above
general report of the Committee, it was fi
lially adopted. With regard to Summer
Pears, the Ott variety was highlyspoken of,
and the Rutter was recommended as a Fall
variety.
On motion, in order to terminate a dis
cussion that else might prove interminable,
a Committee of Five were appointed by the
I 'hair to report business for the Meeting.—
Mr. A. Hoopes sugticsted that a committee
lie appointed to make a list of all the fruit on
exhibition, to be handed to the Secretary
for embodiment In the annual Report of
the Society. On motion a committee was
appointed consisting of live members—with
A. Hoopes (clutirnum). A. committee was,
also, appointed to examine all fruits sent
to the Association for a name; S. W. Noble
was appointed chairman of the committee.
The business session of the afternoon
meeting having been disposed of the sub
ject of dwarf pear trees was debated. Some
of the members thought that the cultivation
of dwarf pear trees, as dwarf trees, was a
failure --as in a short time they get large
roots and become standard pears. Mr.
Parry suggested that on account of the little
room they occupied it was very desirable to
have them in some localities. Mr. Sather
wait, of Delaware county, stated that on his
place trees planted for dwarfs soon became
as largo as those which were planted as
standards. Other members stated, on the
contrary, that by attention and proper
pruning the dwarf trees could be kept
dwarfed.
The report of the committee appointed to
prepare a programme of the topics to be
considered by the association, having been
presented to the President by its Chairman,
further general discussion was dispensed
with. Thu report, on motion, was accepted
and taken up item by item for discussion.
The first item was read by the President
--it was as follows:
" The cause of the failure of the Grape in
Eastern Pennsylvania?"
A long debate ensued, in which It was
conclusively shown that in some localities
in Eastern Pennsylvania the Grape did sue
coed; and was grown with profit, nut that
such localities were peculiarly situated, and
were generally located on the sides of the
eastern slopes of the Alleghenies in shelter
ed positions with a sandy or porous soil.
The following resolution, presented by Mr.
Mitchell, was finally adopted by a vote of
12 yeas to 8 nays, as expressive of the opin
ion of the association :
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this
meeting that the failure of this native grape
in Eastern Pennsylvania is due to atmos
pheric influences producing mildew and
other diseases.
On motion Mr. Wm. L. Peiper and Mr.
Allen Guthrie, both of Lancaster, were
elected members of the Association.
The second item for consideratten was :
Question—The best known mode of eradi
cating the cureulio
Dr. Suesserot suggested that the only
feasible method of destroying curculio was
to kill it before it emerged from the larva
state; J. Stauffer agreed with Dr. S. Mr.
Josiah I loupes stated that a very successful
way to destroy these troublesome insects
was to jar the trees; fruit growers in south
ern Illinois employed this ruethodcwith
success. Mr.Satherwait, of Delaware coun
ty, thought that jarring the trees would.
not prove an entire remedy. • Rethongkt
that by protecting
. andlnereashigthe num
ber of birds—they would destroy these in
sect pests. Mr: S. knew thatthoy (the cur
culio) were diminishing'in numbers in .his
section—probably they would have their
day and ultimately disappear. A member
stated that he had by jarring the fruit trees
and catching the insects • m sheets, been
successful, Inn measure, freeing trees
of them, and thereby growing fruit.
Pending the discussion—the meeting ad
journed until 7 o'clock, P. M.
Lrrah,g ,YeAsion.—Society met at 7 o'clock
P. M.
President Hoopes read his annual. address,
which was of an able, instructive and en
tertaining character, and treated of topics
of great interest, not only to fruit-growers,
but also to those not engaged irt. , thu.culti
vation of fruit.
At the conclusion of the address a spirit
ed discussion was had with reference to the
best methods of eradicating mildew (or
fungus) from fruit trees. The chairman,
Mr. Hoopes, said that mildew on the Bose
could be removed by applying manure
water and tobacco in a llqualstate. Several
of the members spoke highly ,of the effi
cacy of soft soap us a wash for removing
mildew ; the use of liquid manure and air
slackened lime was, also,
recommended—
the lime to be used when the dew is on the
loaves.
The item which is the best known mode
of preventing black knots on cherry and
plum trees t" was next debated.
Mr. Meehan recommended the persistent
cutting out of the black'knot on fruitlrees,
in its early stage, and, from experiments,
believed that it can be totally eradicated.—
Mr. Harrison regarded fungus' as an
indication but not as the cause of the
disease of black knot. A member suggested
that in some experiments made with weak
carbolic acid he had been successful in
removing the blast knot.
The 4th question—" The best method of
a ening winter fruit t" was next (llamas-,
H. M. Engle, of Marietta, stated that by
keeping apples in the coolest possible place
(without permitting them to freeze) t and,
haying them simply packed In barrels he
had succeeded iu keeping and ripening
fruit well. Mr. E. favored early picking.

truilaMti knowledge of centuries of obser
vation:and experience ; and when we con-
Sider the lengthened period during:which
pruning has been performed—the general
intelligence of the operators, and the count
less repetitions of similar processes ending
in similar results, it is reasonable to sup
pose that a sufficient number of facts have ,
been observed to establish a very perfect
science. •
I do not proposeentering into an extend
ed review of modes of pruning; neither
do I intend to discuss, what is of far more
importance, the principles that science has
established for our guidance in Performing
the operation, but will at once ,proceed to
state that. so far as the production of fruit
is concerned on trees that form fruit buds
on short spur branches, such as the apple,
pear, plumb and cherry, I am convinced
of the evil of shortening in, as it is techni
cally termed, the young growth or points
of shoots, at any season, either summer or
winter.
When we wish to form a thickly branch
ed, bushy plant, such as we desire in a.
hedge, the and 13...mm1i-shed by frequent
ly pruning or cutting back thegrowing
shoots as they project beyond the' ideal
limit, thus encouraging lateral twigs, or
aide branches, slender, but numerous, as
the object of a close hedge requires; but
when thedovelopment of umerous lengthy
shoots is the aim, as in willows ,for.haaket
making and similar manufacturing pur
poses, pruning is perfumed during winter
only, and. the' more decided or!Severe the
operation, the' stronger and better the re
sulting growths..
Similar treatment to the above, will pro
duce similar results when applied to fruit
trees.
I will take the pear as an example; and
certainly no variety of fruit tree has been
so tortured under the, sanction of both
science and ignorance this has been ;
when the tree is submitted to a regular
course of winter pruning, together with a
regular pinching of young growths during
summer, a thttket of slender growths is
produced, and, if it is followed up with
skillful persistence, may produce that great
desideratum—a beantiel pyramidal shaped
tree,
On the other hand; when summer prun
ing in its every shape is abjured, and
thorough or severe winter cutting the sys
tematic rule, a profusion of u pright growths,
of more or less luxuriance, aro yearly pro
duced, and yearly removed, just as prac
tised in the culture of willows, excepting
that the pear growths are useless, and the
willows are valuable.
All who aro familiar with pear culture
will recognize these widely different modes
of treatment, and the distinct forms so
produced ; also that they both agree in one
important particular, that is, they produce
-hilt very.little fruit.
Having 'practised both of these systems
to my entire satisfaction, it occurred to me
some twelve years ago, to let the trees
alone. I had pruned, pinched and disbud
ded, until my trees were acknowledged to
be as finely formed as any in the country,
and they certainly were as perfectly out
lined as the most beautiful Norway firs--
I felt the risk of abandoning an orthodox
custom, audof being classed among negli
gent cultivators, but my eyes were opened.
I saw that these orthodox managed trees
were naked of fruit, and resolved, that
however much it might shorten-in my
reputation, I would not for the future
shorten-in my fruit trees.
To illustrate more particularly the plan
now pursued, I may state that in the spring
of 18e3, I planted a collection of sixty va
rieties of pears. These were set in dupli
cate, one-half being on quince roots, the
other on pear stocks. These have received
the same general treatment throughout.—
When planted they were pruned down very
closely, many of them cut so as to resemble
a smooth walking cane, from two to three
feet in length. In the Fail of that year, they
were cut back, in order to establish a prop
or spread of branches, but with the excep
tion of taking a few eions from some of the
varieties, the branches have not been shor
tened since; some few tall branches lucre
been removed entirely where they have be
come crowded, and a young shout encour
aged at the point of cutting, which ensures
the healthy healing over of the cut, and is
essential in the mode of management, to
take the place of future removals.
During the se,end and third years growth
young shouts of these, your and rive feet in
length were nut uncommon, and it required
some firmness to repress the inclination to
prune, but the - non-priming resolution had
not been Lightly formed and was , not to be
lightly abandoned; and overt the lon g est of
these shoots became thickly studded with
fruiting spurs, and in due time furnished
with blossoms, and subsequently with
fruit.
To show the 'Society what I mean by a
thickly studded system of fruit buds, and
the rapidity with which they form when
allowed to grow as nature designs, I have
a tow branches of various ages, which I
submit for inspection.
After the essay was read an animated
discussion took place on the subject of
Pruning.
Mr. H. M. Engle, of Marietta, remarked
that it seems to be the opinion that dwarf
pears form roots and will soon grow into
standards. Mr. Mitchel agreed in this.
Mr. Harrison, of Philadelphia, said cour
age was wanted. Trees were often crowd
ed ; planted too thickly. The trees in such
cases must he thinned; the knife must be
used unsparingly. Most of pear trees were
planted too thickly—they should be planted
from 18 to 20 feet apart. Let I of the trees
be sacrificed in order that the others may
flourish. ,
Mr. Thus. Meehan said he agreed that
pear trees were generally planted too thick
ly together; but nevertheless they should
not be too widely planks]. The trees need
protection; it was well to plant trees of
smaller growth betw'ee'n them, Pruning
also invariably hurts a tree. The result will
be noticed in 20 or 22 years ; the tree is
weakened. The man who prunes closely
his tree on a street, for instance, will not
have so flourishing a tree as his neighbor
who lots nature have her sway. The ten
dency' of pruning is to weaken the vitality
of trees; it renders them liable to disease.
Many of the diseases pear trees now labor
under is caused by too much printing; we
should ,propagate_also from healthy trees.
Mr. Engle confirmed. Mr. Meehan's
theory that too niucli printing was not to bo
recommended.
Mr filler said that he pruned but little
but that he had dwarf pear trees 21 years
old that bear well. Mr. IL cultivated his
ground well.
Mr. Harrison, of Philadelphia, said that
in his experience the only blight : he had
among his trees was caused by- inning too
closely. A. groat deal of blightiettaused by
too much pruning.
Mr. Meehan said that weakened vitality
did not always cause disease—but by prop
agating from trees of weak vitality a bad
stock WaS obtained. Pruning the roots had
the same effect. Mr. M. thought that dwarf
trees 20 years old could be transplanted
without much danger.
Dc.Suesseroth offered the following res.
oldtidn relating the illegal , pruning:
Resolved, That we, the members of the
Penn'a Fruit Growers' Association, do
hereby agree:it° use our , best endeavors to
secure the passage of an net by our State
Legislature, now In session fin the better
protection of shrubbery, fruit and shade
trees; whereby the frequent acts of van
dalism perpetrated by the employees of
Telegraph Companies, ,and others, shall be
constituted a misdemeanor and provision
made for their merited punishment.
Dr. S. said [het in his section of the State
telegraph employees hada habit of hacking
and cutting trees along their line of wires.
Prof. Haigcs favored the passage of the
resolution—he noticed that in the Southern
part of his (York) county many trees were
killed in this way.
Mr., Reed, also, spoke iu favor of the
resolution; he noticed in some instances
whole sides of trees were cut off to allow
the passage of the wire. Mr. Bomberger,
Harrisburg, favored the resolution, and
ippendocl it by.substituting the) word ', So
ctety " for 4
On motion it wits resolved that the next
annual meeting of the Society be held at
Chtunbershurg.Franklin comity.
The Society then went into an election
for the enstung, year, which resulted asfol
lows :
President—Josiah Hoopes, West Ches
ter; Vice PreSidents—S. Noble, Jenkins
town, D. W. Gross, Harrisburg; Dr. Sues
serott, Chambersburg; Recording Secre
tary—Alexander Harris, Lancaster; Cor
responding Secretany-L-Thcimita :Meehan,
Germantown ; Treasurer—Robt. Otto, West
Chester.
The following item was next discussed :
" What varieties • of peaches are most
healthy, and have the most vigorous growth
and best. permanent Constitution?'
Mr. Hervey, , suggested -that those varie
ties
having the most deeply sedated leaves i
were the bp e t.'
Mr. Parry, of N. .7., said In his State the
Mountain Rose wits an, excellent variety;
that is iiiir*Veichlust Wining before the

Mr: Kerioot remarked that in Harrisburg
the Susquehanna variety did . excellently.

. ~, at are the influences of hiheiiiiaa
ticin on fruit?" ,
,_The ' debate of this Itern was Operaieby '
Mfr. Harvey, of Chester,oounty, he said
some say that' the seed bf strawberriea are
influenced by the pollen when Said straw
berries are planted aide by side,....BighaPs
when an orchard of early and latf ,a.P,Ples
are planted near, together the pollen of the
apple blossoms affect each other. Lam per
suaded that different varieties of potatoes
planted near together affect each other ; in
spite of what botanists say I know.tbis t9'
be the fact.
Mr. Purple, of Columbia, had noted . that
vines affected each other; the pollen of the
squash will affect the pumpkin ; the same'
is the case with the potato. , ~
Mr. Merceron had not noted this peculi
arity in potatoes.
Air. Harrison moved that "cross-impreg
nation" be substituted for the word ,• hy
bornization" in the item under discussion.
Concurred in.
Prof. Heiges thought that the abnormal'
excrescences found onyines and treesovere
often mistaken for theetfects of "cross by
bern ization."
Messrs. Harvey, Meehan, and other
members, expressed the belief that lUD real
" cross impreptation7 can take place.
Mx. Parry, of N. J., said that he knew
that vines, (such as the citron and melon).
would be affected by the pollen of each
other; he narrated an amusing incident
where the pollen had an influence upon the
pulp of the seed.
Prof. lielges, of York county, believed
h
that the pollen had an int:Worm, especially
in the Creveling Grape, which not having
much pollen of its own, required (earn's
tion from the pollen of other varieties..
Mr. Mitchel offered the following resolu
tion which, after some debate, was adopted:
Resolved, That we heartily approve of
the suggestion made by our President, in
his annual address, that the Legislature be
petitioned to make an appropriation to, and
aid in carrying out the object ottilis Soci
ety, which represents a very important in
terest, and one which well deserves the
fostering care of the State, and that a com
mittee be appointed to carry out the. object
of this resolution. _ .
Thursday Afternoon.—The Society, pur
suant to motion made at adjournment, met
RC 9 o'clock.
On motion a Committee, consisting of
Messrs. Noble, Merceron and Harvey, was
appointed to select and make up a box of
the rarer and newer verities of fruits; on
exhibition, to forward to Charles Downing,
of Newburg, N. Y. The President, Mr.
Hoopes, remarked that this was but due to
Mr. Downing in reward for the .eminent
services he had rendered fruit growers by
naming rare new fruits; besides Mr._
Downing had requested that all fruit grow
ers' societies should forward rare, new
fruits to him in order that he might exam
ine them and if necessary name them.
The President stated he had the pleasure
of introducing Mr. Thomas Meehan of
Germantown, the Secretary of the Society
to those present.
Mr. Meehan stated thathe had not pre
pared any written address, but would make
some extemporaneous remarks on " Fruit
Cultivation in general." The speaker re
marked that great improvement could bo
made in fruit cultivation. That the people
of Lancaster county, although well advanc
ed in fruit growing and distinguished for
the quantity and quality of fruit grown by
them, could still find much room for im
provement. Mr. Meehan spoke of the nature
eta fruit tree and the different functions of its
parts—its loaves and roots. With regard
to the roots of a tree they should be kept as
near the surface as possible without actually
being in the light—the leaves of a tree must
have light, but such was not the case with
the roots. Water is prejudicial to the roots
of a tree ; so also is a hot soil; for a hot soil
produces evaporation and deprives the
roots of the water essential to their growth
and life. Coolness and moisture is very
essential to grow fruit trees well; it is
therefore a question whether 'a system of
mulching is not better for fruit trees ; and
that it should be practiced instead of that
system of cultivation which leavesthe roots
of trees exposed to the ainfavorable influ
ence of heat, Re.
With regard to the influence of soil and
climate we find that in our woods that the
wild grape clambers over the trees and
bears luxuriantly. The vine also is, in the
woods, subjected to those conditions most
favorable to promote its growth, and in
Cultivating the grape we should study Na
ture and imitate her.
In answer to the query "what influence
the stock has on the graft?"
Mr. Meehan said It had no more influ
ence than the vitality of the stock might
have—but the stock made no difference in
the quality of the fruit of the graft. Mr.
Meehan was satisfied that the stock could
not change tho character of the fruit on the
graft. Mr. Meehan remarked that the fibres
of trees die annually and that a fibre that
lives over a year becomes a root.
Mr. Purple, of Columbia, believed that
Mr. Meehan was correct in his theory; but
that he (Mr. P.) thought the fibres of ever
green trees often lived over a year, and did
not die until 3 or 4 years elapsed.
Mr. Meehan remarked that although the
bulb of a plant be planted in soil that
freezes soon after the root was planted,
nevertheless the root would thaw the ad-
jacent soil and grow—the roots would thaw
their way through the frozen earth. How
ever cold it may be, the trunk and branches
of a tree are not frozen, the Internal heat of
the tree prevents that; if the cells contain
ing the sap of a tree were to freeze, the tree
would burst and death must ensue.
Mr. Satterthwait, of Montgomery county,
remarked that surely the small twigs or
branches of a tree freeze. Many plants
such as the cabbage may be frozen, but
they will afterwards thaw out and live.
Mr. Meehan said that in all large trees
often a large portion of them were dead,
but the dead portion being filled with
moisture, it freezes and bursts the tree—
that is the dead portion of the tree. A cab
bage is weakened by freezing; its vitality
is permanently affected.
Mr. Purple maintained that winter wheat
freezes but afterwards grows. A cherry
tree, which has a tight bark, freezes and
bursts the bark, and then grows more rap-
: -
idly. Mr. I'. thought that frostwas essen
tial to the growth of trees.
Mr. Satterthwait insisted that the freezing
and thawing of some plant-s, and of the
branches and twigs of trees would not kill
them.
Mr. J. Stauffer of this city instanced
a plant that possessed latent heat; he
thought that the freezing of trees did not
necessarily kill them.
Mr. Wm. Saunders, of Washington, D.
C., said he was of the opinion that wood did
contain latent heat, else why did It make
heat when burned?
Mr. J. Stauffer explained the chemical
process by which the action of fire pro
duced heat.
Mr. Saunders remarked that recent in
vestigations show that if animals (cold
blooded ones) are frozen solid they will die
—the old theory that such animals could be
frozen and.live having been exploded.
A member remarked that trees in his
opinion if frozen solid must die—else why
do the tops of trees die in hard winters. It
depends very much on the vitality of the
tree or plant whether it dies or not. Prof.
Heiges, of York county, remarked that ico
will impart heat to a l.w " artificial" tem
perature of 219 degrees below zero; and
will raise it at leAst 180 degrees. Heat is
radiated from the roots of trees as is shown
by the microscope; and icicles attached to
the limbs of trees, even when the atmos
phere is below the freezing point, become
melted and fall off indicating that there is
heat at the surface of the bark of the limb.
On motion a vote of thanks was extended
by the Society to Mr. lierstine, of Phila
delphia, for his efforts in cultivating and
originating the new varieties of raspberries
which he had on exhibition. The raspber
ries in question were highly spoken of
by several of the fruit growers present as
uniting the splendid qualities of the Allen
raspberry with the hardier qualities of tho
Philadelphia raspberry.
The item "Growing Native Fruits under
glass" was next taken up. Mr. Saunders,
of Washington, D. C., said he had met with
great success in growing grapes under
glass ; the glass protecting the vines from
mildew. The sides of the shed being open
ed—the roof being of glass. It is a green
house without sides: Mr. fault er , of
Lancaster, thought it must prove an ex
cellent method of growing grapes, Mr.
Saunders said he lad great success in
growing grapes under glass, and had prac
ticed growing them in this way with the
best results.
Mr. Harrison. of Germantown, thought
that grapes grown in this way had an in
ferior flavor.
Mr. Saunders asserted that, if properly
ventilated and cultivated, g, rapes, nectarines
and peaches, grown under glass, 'would
have a fine flavor—muche depended on the
management.
