Suggestions. Much of the nitrogen may be furnished byraising leguminous crops between the rows of trees andturning under for green-manure. It is claimed that largeapplications of potash enable the trees more readily towithstand the disease known as *Peach Yellows/* PEARS. Fertilizer for Pears, same as for Apples. PEAS.
