We hear it often remarked that the fruit trees of this State are remarkable for tendencies to an over-abundant crop, and that it holds good in every description of fruit We know this to be so, not only in one season, or in one locality, but in all California and Oregon there is a universal disposition in fruit trees to overbear, and unless care is taken by growers to relieve the tree of a part of the fruit, the tree will be seriously injured.

By a little observation any one can see, as the fruit is maturing, a portion of it will grow more rapidly and of fairer form, leaving others of an inferior size and form. Remove all the latter from the tree at once, and thus increase still larger the best fruit. This rule should apply to all fruits; to grapes, more particularly of the finest varieties; not only remove inferior bunches from the vines, but small berries from the bunch.

In speaking of the prolific nature of fruit trees in California, in our examination of the fruit gardens in various sections this year, we have seen as follows, and very recently: Bartlett pears nearly ripe, and the trees blossoming again - not one, two, or three trees only, but nearly all in the orchard; this at Briggs' orchard on the Yuba, near Marysville. In the vineyards of Gov. Boggs, in Napa Valley, clusters of grapes nearly ripe and the vines in full blossom again; this on nearly every vine. At the large peach orchard of Messrs. Thompson, Suscul Valley, the trees loaded with luscious ripe fruit, and a second crop of fruit coming on; and this, too, on numerous trees. Pear trees also, at Ranch, have a second crop.

Those who feel any interest in these remarkable instances of the wonderful fecundity of fruit trees and the desire to investigate the causes will do well to examine all these places. They can all be seen and the proprietors will be pleased to show them.

We can cite innumerale instances of peach trees where every peach on the tree was double and several cases where the peaches were triplets. Apples and pears are found double, and melons in handsomely formed pairs, twin grown. We know, however, that these facts are becoming so common, among those who are observant, that they are of every day occurrence, but the great mass of the people should know the abundance that is soon to be poured out upon us.

The Strawberry has already proved a perpetual fruit. The Fig gives us two crops and ere long will yield three; and we hesitate not to say that by and by, at every State Fair, there will be exhibited many kinds of fruit of a second crop, and several also of perpetual species, never before known of that habit. We shall also have on exhibition the second crops of our cereal grains, for however much we now have to boast of in this land of plenty, "the half has not been told." - California Farmer.
