We copy part of an article from the Gardeners
Chronicle, as quoted in the December number Of
Hovey's Magazine Of Horticulture under the head
of"Summer Pruning of Apple Trees" The wr
ter had reference to the small dwarf trees in gar
dens, but his direction will apply equally well to
the big trees Of the orchard All that is necessary
SAYS the writer TO insure abundant fruit, is to prac-
lice diligently the August stopping. This consists
in breaking cutting off at that season from three
to four inches Of every summer shoot, and then in
mid-wintor, cutting back two thirds OF one half
more OF such shoots so as to reduce them 10 the
length Of four to six inches.
The effect Of this system is TO prevent the sap Of
the trees from expanding tselfn the over-engthen-
ing Of branches. The end of the summer shoots
being broken off, the sap is arrested IN ITS onward
course, and forced into lateral channels. Those
lateral channels are buds in the axis OF the lower
leaves. There il collects, is occupied in the or
ranization Of short lateral branches, which finally
become short fruit-bearng spurs, In this way we
have seen dwarf trees covered with bearing wood
down to the very graft.
If observed from the beginning, this practice
renders a dwarf tree most prolific object. il
neglected at first, it may at any time afterwards be
put into force with this difference in the result,
that il takes as much longer time to bring into
bearing tree rendered barren by long msman-
agement, than to secure abundance from tree well
healed from its earliest youth.
The reason why August is chosen for the opera
ton, is this If the summer shoots are shortened
earlier, the inside buds will all break from the eI-
cessve influx of sap; if performed later there will
not be a sufficient propulsion of sap into them to
effect the desired object 1t will frequently happen
that with the hest management, some of the side
buds will break but they will be the end Of
the branches, and will be removed with the winter
pruning.
We have said that in winter pruning, the shoots
are to be cut back to the extent of half or two
thirds of their length. |, is hardly necessary to
explain thai it is only the weaker shoots that require
to be shortened by wo-thrds aud that the strongest
are to be left with half their lcngth.-Amriedn

strongly of camphor, which is obtained from the
