On Pruning.


 amount almost to non pruning after the second year in the orchard. The following well-known fruit men pre- scribe other practices:
 ]. II. Flickinger of San Jose says: "l commence pruning immediately after gathering my last fruit-that is the Salway peaches, which is about the 20th of October. prune my apricot trees first. then the prunes, and follow with the peaches. My gang of pruners generally finish their work by March l. and the pruning. together with my winter irrigation and thorough culti- yation up to June have so far insured me crop each year l have no expe- rience in pruning apricots immediate ly after the fruit is harvested, but some of my neighborS who have claim it is beneficial to do So in order to be certain of a crop for the ensuing year.
 T find that the average fruit-grow- CT wants to produce all the fruit pos sible on his trees regardless of the preservation of the trees and of future crops. To illustrate: 1 bought of one grower one hundred tons of peach es for canning, to measure two and a half inches in diameter. During the season I advised him to go over the trees once and thin out the fruit, talk ing off at least one-half of it. The re- ply was that the trees were all right and were thinned out sufficiently. Now how many tons of peaches doyou think he delivered at my factory Only eight tons out of the one hundred tons con tracted for"
 "Prune trees in the Santa Clara val ley will soon be in a bad condition if not more carefully trimmed. In my travels I find many of them that have been overloaded and whose branches were very unbalanced until some of them lie flat on the ground. and many are badly broken. If persisted in, liiiN tbtiSt VIII Ntl tdiiit Adhhdzt IT not ruin, the trees for future crops, while exhausting the fertility of the soil in the production of crops of small and unstable fruit. l contend that all fruit trees must be pruned each year to keep the trees in proper con- ditiOn to bear good. fruit.
 John Rock of Niles, an extensive or chardist and nurseryman gives his methods as follows: We never prune until the leaves are nearly off. As long as the leaves arc on the tree the sap is still active. Removing large limbs may be done during the summer as soon as the fruit is gathered. but the shortening in is better done during the winter when trees are dormant. Large limbs removed in spring when the tree is full of sap will show decay quicker on cuts than if this work be done during summer. We never pinch back unless there is danger of too rapid growth so the wind will blow limbs of. Apricots are more subject to it in the second or third year after planting. Newly-set grafts on old trees make so strong a growth that they break down from this overweight. These should be topped as soon as they attain few feet of growth; the cutting back will make them branch out and balance themselves.
 Opinions differ about early and late pruning. Any time from December to March will not affect trees much either way Many growers in Alame- da county prune their apricots and cherries during summer and think this treatment will keep such trees from gummlng during the following vplr
