B and C spread the roots into a natural position, then fill in the soil, using the good soil first — small spadefuls deliberately thrown over the roots in all directions — while A, by a slight shaking and pumping up and down of the stem, aids the earth in settling around the rootlets....

If the root-system is developed sideways but not centrally, as is often the case, a hill is raised in the hole to fill out the hollow space in the root-system, and the earth of the hill is patted down with the spade. When the hole is in proper order, A holds the tree perpendicularly in the middle of the hole, with the side bearing the fullest branches toward...
Página 25 - ONE'S training for the work of life is begun in the home and fostered in the school. This training is the result of a direct and conscious effort on the part of the parent and teacher, combined with the indirect result of the surroundings in which the child is placed. The surroundings are more potent than we think, and they are usually neglected. It is probable that the antipathy to farm life is often formed before the child is able to reason on the subject.

A, who manipulates the tree, is the planter, and responsible for the results; B and C do the spading under his direction. A places the tree in the hole to ascertain whether this is of proper size; a board or stick laid across the hole aids in judging the depth.
