Uncle Dave is 8i years old, aud OM been g rowing apples successfully for 35 years. At the age of 84 he set out a ~orth­ ern Spy orchard, and expects to ex hibit the fruit when he has reached lIe is H type of the ('"elHu r), mark. the hardy ).Iichigan pionC'cr, lind came to Jackson county in IS3 __ I> but hI,! still possesses the rugged health and the boy ish c>::uberallcc of &l years :lgo. ~o morc sensible, yet humorous, talk was ever delivered before the H ort. Club by a morc remarkable mall. Uncle Dan' says that it is good pOlicy to renew the old trees by budding or grafting, as it lakes 100 long for the Dew ones to g row, the dead-wood is cut back to the g reen and the height reduced, :liS it is not profitable to go beyond 20 feet for apples with the present price of la bor. Apples should be thinncd, the same as peaches, shorlly aher the Ju ne dropping, and the fancy fruit should be graded honcstJy and packed in boxes.
