Ils mangent les pommes, ils détruisent les insectes, et ils nettoient la terre et mettre le sol en jachère sous complètement. Je pourrais appeler votre attention aux vergers de deux ou trois acres en mesure, là où deux ou trois centaines de poules ont été conservés pour une période d'années, où il n'y a rien de se développer sur cette terre mais les pommiers, et ces arbres sont croître- ment qu'ils ne grandissent pas u
