The Pruning of Apprc-Trees

To the Editor Of the Dispatch
Tho advice given in the Weekly Dis
patch. I desire for another reason than
that given by Mr.. Kinzer. My own expe-
rience is that pruning wounds will heal
much quicker when the knife or saw Is
used after the leaf starts.
Undoubtedly there are times-and just
when the worst time is I am not posi-
tiye-when pruning causes the start Of
sprouts innumerable. / am quite sure,
however, II is some time in winter or
early spring.
The cutting Of large limbs in the win
ter is ruinous TO trees, for the reasons
given by Mr.. Kinzer.
In the year just passed I had more
trimming done than ever before all Of
II after leaves wore out, and continued
till in full leaf, and never had so few
sprouts.
THE WEIGHT OF APPLES.
