Root Pruning of Fruit Trees.

An English promologist gives bis
ideas as follows on the subject of root
pruning: The operation should be per-
formed as soon after the crops have been
gathered as possible. Open trench
about eighteen inches vide at from two
to three feet FROM the stem Of the tree,
giving more or less distance according
to the age and size. and about the same
d4p;b, working the soil ont pretty well
from underneath the roots. with view
Of severing any top or perpendicular
ones that may be there, aad cutting all
those in the prescribed space clean away
in the operation. II the trees are 'ig-
orous and the natural soil in which they
are growing is good, it may be returned
to fill up the trenches without additions
Of any kind being made. But, on the
other hand, should both trees and soil
show sign, of debility. the trenches
should be filled in with good, fertile
loan, and the improvement in the crops
in succeeding years will well pay for The
trouble and labor. Really fruitful trees
are often benefited as much by not prun-
ing as by the pruning Of the shoots =
The slight check in growth leads to the
production of short ointed limbs and the
formation of strong, healthy fruit buds.
