low-Headed Apple Trees.

Prof. Arthur r. Erwin: One i'm
portant lesson gained from the past
is that, at least for the northwest, low.
headed trees are very much better
than the old-time "skyscrapers."
In prairie region like Iowa, pro.
lection from the wind is important.
This refers not only to the matter of
wind falls, but also to the protection
OF the plant from the drying influ
ences of winds in winter. A low head
ed tree offers less leverage, hence less
wind fall; and the head being closer
to the ground receives proportionally
more protection from desiccation.
A serious loss to young trees is by
sunscald. This usually occurs on
bright, warm spells in early spring,
and the injury is generally on the
south or west side of the trunk. Heat
stimulates activity. During the win
ter season the protoplasm is in dor
mant state, and while in this condi-
tion Is uninjured by cold. On bright,
warm day, on account of the rise in
temperature, the protoplasm becomes
active. At night the temperature sud.
denly falls, catching the protoplasm
in This active condition and it is de-
stroyed. The live bark dies and par
TALLY peels away in patches. A low
head has less trunk exposure, hence
less opportunity for such injury. The
top also shades the stem better, and
hence affords protection not re-
ceived with high headed trees.
No fruit grower who is in the busi-
ness for the money can afford to omit
spraying as one Of his orchard opera
tions. Low headed trees can be
sprayed much more effectively and
also cheaper than high ones. At gath.
advantage. One man on the ground
can do the work of two on ladders.
Orchard cultivation is an essential
to good fruit growing, and a high
headed tree is very much more con-
venient in this respect 1t is likely
in this one fact that we find the prac.
tice of high heading so prevalent in
older sections. With the old-time i'm.
plements and harness it meant slow
work and lots of lifting, to work
around low headed trees. The fellow
who has had cuch an experience is
p very strongly tempted to lop off few
of the lower branches the first oppor.
tunity.
Better types of orchard harness and
implements have remedied this to a
large degree, and there is no longer
ground for complaint from this source.
The traceless harness does away with
single trees, which skin the bark and
are very useful in the orchard.
