Pruning Fruit Trees


The time for pruning all fruit trees
time when most wood growth takes
place, and then is the only time to
train the, trees to the desired form.
The most severe pruning OF a fruit
tree should be when it is set in the
permanent orchard. At re-setting,
many of the feeding roots will be de-
stroyed, hence pruning and severely
cutting back the top are necessary so
that the young tree will live while
new roots are forming and becoming
established in the new soil home The
top of the young tree set out in spring
should be cut back to about two feet
of the ground, with some root pruning
at the same time. The following
spring cut out all but five or six main
branches, and begin to shape the head
according to your ideals for heading
The following spring cut back these
main branches somewhat, and cut out
all surplus and interfering small
branches. Continue pruning every
subsequent spring for removal OF sur
plus and interfering branches SO that
it will never become necessary to cut
out large branches.
Although pruning may be done at
any time when the tree Is dormant
in late fall, winter or spring-yet the
best time is in the spring just before
new growth begins. Then the wounds
begin to heal Immediately and are
least exposed for decay.
Use a sharp instrument to make a
enoofh clean cuf Ont close On that
long stubs will not result. Avoid as
much as possible the cutting of large
branches Prune some every year.

New Material.

A new material that is being used
for suits and gowns and even for
handsome coats is of cotton texture,
but has such a beautiful chamois in
ish that it places the fabric among
those Of more aristocratic fiber. The
cloth comes in blue, lavender, tan,
brown and biscuit color, and because
il will wash instead OF requiring a
dry cleaner is most practical as well
as slightly.
