Girdling to Induce Bearing.
Western Wis., Farmer.

Western (Wls.) Farmer.
Much has been said of late about
this old practice, which, if judiciously
performed, will promote bearing the
"of year." as well AZ throw young and
barren trees into fruiting, and we clip
from an exchange the following:
On June 20, 1874 or 1876, l gi1dled
three Northern Spy trees with a view
to bringing them into bearing, as they
were large enough to bear three or four
barrels each. The experiment was a
success, tho trees bearing as large a
crop as | could wish, and that too on
the "of'' year, and they have done so
ever since.
"Three years later, (which Of course
was on the "odd'' year, | girdled three
more fruitless trees. These came into
bearing on the even year. Up to this
time my object had been fruit, without
regard to time. 1t now occurred to me
that as the trees came into bearing the
next year after girding, the bearing
might be controlled. Again in 1880 l
girdled about 100 young trees just old
enough to bear. With but few excep-
tons these gave good crop in 1881,
and some of them needed propping,
and from others part of the crop was
taken early to prevent the limbs from
breaking
"About one-half of these trees are
Northern Spy, and appear all right
now. but as the other half are Baldwin
and Greening, and bore partial crop
the same year they were girdled, they
appear now little pinohed and dam
aged by the treatment. | think they
will recover in year or two. | would
not let tree bear the same year it is
girdled, and would only take off an
inch or less of bark and that too very
carefully.--James BlLndy.
In addition to the caution concern
ing over fruiting, as given above, we
name another serious drawback to this
ringing practice, that is the tendency to
| fire blight, which is so common in our
rich soils of the west. In June, 1880,
we girdled one of q row of thrifty ST.
| berians, which were showing a little
| fruit. Moist, hot weather followed and
in ten days the whole top of the girdled
tree was bhghted, while none of the
twenty uugirdled trees in the same row
were affected. Had the girdling been
| followed with dry spell the tree might
have retained health, and the develop
ment of fruit been secured.
Evidently there must needs be q
check on luxuriant growth by root
pruning or greasing the tree-if in rich
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1882-03-23

land-and then girdling may be sue
cess. Our plan of ringing is as follows:
Take two shoe-knife blades, old ones
will do, set them in one handle,
side by side, one fourth of an inch
apart, and couple the ether ends in
a similar manner, so as to have a stout
handle at each end of this double
bladed tool. You can quickly run this
around any limb of three inches or less
in diameter, cutting well through the
bark, you can then remove the ring
made by these two parallel cuts with
your pocket knife and the work is done.
This with all disbarking should be done
a month after the first flow of sap in
the spring. 1t may be June LIST or July
LIST, according to local circumstances.
DIsBARKING.
The old custom of removing the
bark from the trunk of the tree entire
ly is thought by many to renew the
vigor of an old tree; which we have
never admitted. 1t is akin to ringing,
causing partial stoppage of the return
flow of sap for time and so forcing a
greater growth of the top, larger fruit,
and more fruit buds for the next year.
1t should be done only when the new
sap wood is partially formed, usually
late in June or early in July on old or
chard trees. The year following this
or ringing the trees should have good
culture.

What a Boy Will Do.

An exchange says a boy will tramp
247 miles in one day on a rabbit hunt
and be timber in the evening; when,
if you ask him to go across the street
and borrow Jones two-inch auger, he
will be as stiff as meat block. OF
course he will And he will go swim
ming al day and stay iii the water
three hours at time, and splash and
dive and paddle and puff, and next
morning he will feel that an unmeas-
ured insult has been offered him when
he is told by his mother to wash his
face carefully 80 as not to leave the
scores of the ebb and flow 90 plain to be
seen under his gills, And he'll wander
around dry creek-bed all the afternooa
piling up a pebble fort, and nearly die
off when his big sister wants him to
please pick up a basket of chips for the
parlor stove. And he'll spend the big
gest part of the day trying to corner a
stray mule or bald-backed horse for a
ride, and feel that all life's charms have
fled when it comes time to drive the
cows home. And he'll turn a ten-acre
lot upside down for ten inches ofangle,
worms, and wish for the voiceless tomb
when the garden demands his attention
But all the same when you want friend
who will stand by you and sympathize
with you and be true to you in al
kinds of weather, enlist one of those
same boys. 1850 Haipkeys.
