Dwarf Apple Trees Propel Small Lot Fruit Gardens
A 100 strong display of Astrakhan dwarf apples by George T. Powell of Columbia county explores Paradise and Doucin stocks. Dwarf trees stay eight to ten feet, plant ten feet apart, bearing two bushes per barrel with high fruit density. Experts flag Paradise as limited commercially, while Doucin offers larger trees up to twenty feet, set fifteen to twenty feet apart and easier to manage. Government horticulturists note dwarf fruit trees suit small lots and offer early bearing in enclosed spaces, with single trees capable of producing up to 150 apple varieties. Planting under the trees with strawberries and berries maximizes space, while grafting can expand fruit diversity.

Utilizing a Broken Hoe advises taking a broken handle hoe to a blacksmith to straighten and sharpen it, then reuse around the garden and chicken house.
Tops of Fenceposts Cut Slanting for Draining Crabs
The tops of fenceposts should be cut slanting, preferably with an ax, to prevent crabwater from remaining. When cut with a saw, the pitch must be greater, especially for posts with a marked hardness difference between spring wood and summer wood.
