Low Branching orchard Trees.

A. R. Strothers, in the Ohio Cultiva-

Trees branching low are not to be left
entirely to themselves; the orchardist
must exercise proper judgment in trim

hot sun, protecting the bark from sun
stroke and scald-sap; they accelerate the
flow of the sap. They resist the better
in the winter; they are good substitute
for mulch, keeping weeds and grass from
growing. keeping the ground loose and
moist; they cause the tree to grow thick
er at the base, and prevent trees from
getting top-heavy and from blowing over
Trees bear fruit earlier, and the fruit is
much easier gathered, trees easier prun.
