SUMMER PRUNING.
~seasonabIe Suggestions For Use OF
Knife on Weak and Declining Plants.

S~easonsble Suggestions For Use OF
Knife on Weak Declining Plants.
Summer pruning is the best for
shade trees. Use the pruning knife
freely on the tops of weak aud decll1
ing plants il order to give them a new
start.
Don't prune after the blooming peri
cd. Nearly all towering shrubs bloom
on the wood of the previous years
growth.
BY cutting back the heads of young
plants. a thicker and broader growth
is encouraged. Never u downward
on a limb; a ragged wound is usually
the result of so doing.
When planting shrubs cut back the
branches one half, to balance the root
system. To produce a low headed
fruit tree. trim of all the branches
and cut back the top to eighteen or
twenty inches at planting time.
To avoid crotches in mature trees,
remove all limbs In ~two-year-old trees
hat form crotches with their neigh
bors. Don't forget to cover the wound
made by pruning with tar or commot'
paint. preferably drab.
Do not depend on winter pruning 10
keep normal shrubs in shape, says SUI
burban Life. They will never look
well. Prune two or three times during
the summer.
kemember that summer pruning III
duces fruit bearing, while winter prun
ing encourages a heavy growth OF
wood. Summer pruning should be
light. however. and pruning in winter
is often necessary in any case.
1t is much better to u away a LITTLE
wood each year than a large amount
occasionally. Begin when the tree 1:
young. and you can shape il any wa!
that you desire. Remember that a low
headed tree Is easier TO spray and easl
er to pick the fruit from than ont
whose branches are high 10 the air.

Sewer System Needed

The past winter, while unpre-
cedented in the amount of moisture
that fell, emphasizes the need OF
a more extensive sewer sytem.
Plans for the extension of the
present sytem should be abandon
ed. 1t is totally inadequate for
present needs and practically use
less. What is needed is general
plan for sewerage system that will
cover the entire city. that can be
built in sections as required and
that will anticipate the future
growth of the town. 1t should be
deep enought in the ground to
drain Easements of business houses
and cellars of residences. The
business district is 10 sore need of
such sewer at the present tine.
Conditions in the alleys aud along
Main street are menace to health
and there should be no delay pre-
pairing plans for modern sewerage
system and building the section
in the business district at once.
