A field which has been in alfalfa for a number of years if properly worked up pro- vides an excellent place in which to plant trees. Lastly, he would empha- size the need of interplanting varieties for pollination purposes and to equalize the labor at harvest time. Plant the trees far enough apart to insure full de- velopment. See that soil and air drain- age is ample, and where rainfall is in- suflicient that irrigation can be had.
