son. when the new canes got two feet high
loose no time in nipping of the end to make
them branch. just as soon as the berries are
all picked, cut out the old canes and all the
weakest new canes, leaving but four or five in
a hill, and cut back the side branches Of these
canes to within fifteen inches of the main
stalk. The next spring trim again severely, il
large, perfect fruit is wanted. Thus you have
the third year, and every year after, three trim

The effect OF this system Of pruning the
