injured during the growing season, frequent
" becomes a fruit branch either during the
same or the following season and this, espe-
ciaIly if situated in the interior Of the tree or
on the older and lower parts of the branches.
The check given to the extension OF the
shoot concentrates the sap in the parts re.
naming and, unless the check has been CIV
en- very early in the season, or the growth
very vigorous in the tree, so that the buds will
break aad form shoots, they are certain to
prepare for the production Of fruit 1t is on
this.principle Of checking the growth and con-
centrating the sap in the pinched shoots, that
pinching to promote fruitfulness is performed;
andits efficiency may be estimated from the
fact that the trees onwhich it has been prac.

perhaps seven years sooner than they would
have done without it.-Barrv's Fruit Gar
