.PRUME TREES IN SUMMER
Farmers Trim In Foliage Season In
Order to Check Wood
Growth.

Summer pruning, as contrasted with
the regular practice. is the pruning of
trees while in foliage. It's influence
upon the tree in many respects is oppo-
site to winter pruning. The latter
stimulates wood growth, while the for
mer tends to lessen wood growth.
AS a rule, any practice that checks
wood growth tends to induce fruitful
ness. Growers have taken advantage
Of this fact for many years. In Eng
land the result is attained by root
pruning. The method consists in dig
ging trench around the tree at some
considerable distance and severing
some of the roots. This interferes
with the food supply and necessarily
reduces growth.
In the famous Ozark apple region
OF Missouri and Arkansas the same
result is attained by ringing or Cir
ding the trunk or main branches of
the tree, thus checking the downward
flow Of sap. The roots in this way are
partially starved and are, therefore, un-
able to induce strong wood growth
the following season. The work is
done during the growing season and,
as result, the wound soon heals over.
A complete or partial defoliation by
insects, disease, or spraying injury dur
ing the early summer seems to have
the same effect.-Farm and Home.
