into the bark in longitudinal lines. and in
this way form the cracks which ultimately
result in what is known as rough bark.
AS il is thus the design of nature to get
rid Of the outer bark, IL is good practice TO

farming even lime wash has been found
beneficial In some OF the interior counties

soon think of never cleaning his horses as
letting his orchard trees go without coat
ing OF lime wash once year. The practical
results of this treatment speak for them
selves. No healthier trees or more success
full fruit crops can be had than result from
this practice.
