The Pathological Association

At the meeting Of the American Pathological
Association in Washington yesterday D. W.
Adams, of Florida, read paper on Pruning
DIR. Adams referred to pruning as sort Of hered.
;.ary error. Our present system of pruning proves
that believe in tho total deprayity OF all fruit
ard that the only way il can be saved is by means
OF wholesale bntchery. Tho first and direct 70
suls Of cutting any tree, no said was to do it q
permanent and irrepsrable injury. Pruning for
q growth is myth, and those who do 1t are fol
lowing the ancient idea that all tho nourishment
of tree comes through root, ignoring the fact
that most of the trees nutrition comes from tho
leaves To remove q branch ia to do the tree
moro hahn than to cut eff root Pruning Causes
tree to bear simply because it imports tho vi
tality of the treo itself. Pruning lays tree open
to all sorts of diseases and is defiance TO sll the
laws of nature. The troubles that trees suffer
from insects and disease are more than all else
increased by the pruning knife above and the
powsharo below.
At the conclusion of his paper Mr.. Adams WAS
called upon to answer number Of Quos, ions that
were aroused by his attack upon the system Of
pruning. He was ssked if he had barren or
chard that he knew would BIZ improved By prun-

said he would il he was sure that pruning would
cause fuitfulness, but he would want very good
proof of this before he woul1 cut. he did not
wish to be understood saying that there might
not DO advantages resulting from pruning that
would oyerbslance the disadvantages and whom
such was tho case he would recommend pruning,
but he simply wished TO lay down the general
statement that cutting tree hurts it. He had
never seen pruning knife that would make as
neat cut as nature does, nor cut that heals as
