SALT FOR PLUMB TREEs.-Mr Benja-
min Jncobs of Dorchester, had a small
plumb tree which never bore more than
half dozen plumbs that came to maturity;
seeing salt recommended as a remedy, he
applied two quarts, the first of March, In a
space about two feet wide around the tree.
commencing about SIX inches from the tree
1t was dug into the ground a little. The
consequence has been a fine lot OF fruit We
saw this tree a short time SINCE and 1t was
as full as it could hold. 1t was evident that
salt made the great contrast between this and
previous years as to the production of fruit
