Obviously the pruning which a tree
receives during the first two or three
years after it is planted has much to
do with its future. Mistakes In form
ing the head or the results Of neglect
during the early years In the life of
q tree are practically irreparable. On
the other hand, IL the tree is wen
formed and properly pruned during
its first years, the foundation for a
good tree is estabqished; subsequent
errors in pruning. If they occur, may
admit OF correction without perman-
ent harm to the tree.
The new bulletin explains why in
certain regions where warm periods
Of considerable length occur during
the winter. it is well to prolong the
growth of trees until late every sea-
son. The rest period during which
trees generally remain dormant is one
which is fairly decided by nature.
Until that period is past, when once
the trees have become dormant they
do not respond readily to tempera-
lures which later would cause them
to resume a more or less active con-
dition. IF the growth OF the tree is
continued actively until the near APP
proach of cold weather each season
by means of late tilIage, heterogeneous
fertilizers, or in other ways, the per-
iod Of rest for the tree will not be
| completed until a later time In the

weather occurs in January, for in

The Russian forces are strongly
fortified on the heights east of the

assault on these positions will present

The German forces further north,
which crossed the Russian border are

river.
Expect Conflict in North.
The Russian line in the Grodek re.

son OF the character of the country
that it is believed here successful
frontal attack would be impossible.

Russians Make Stand.
The Russian forces driven from one
position after another by the Austro-
German advance across the province,
have made a stand on the heights west
of Lemberg. along an eighteen-m mile
line Should Lemberg be retaken AUS
tria would have reclaimed virtually the
entire province of Galicia. almost an
of which was in Russian hands curing
the earlier stages of the war.
The opinion is expressed in Petrosrao
that the Russian positions west OF
on account of the character of the
country, can be defended successfully
against frontal attack. and that,
the efforts OF the AUS
trians and Germans will be concen-
trated on their advance further nortn.

Further Galician Advances.
The official announcement from Ber-
lin Yesterday reported further ao-
yances at several points on the Call
clan front, but said little of the fight
ing in the vicinity of Lemberg, which
apparently Is less intense for the time
being.
The arrival of the assembled Aus
trian German armies before the Grodek
positions, to the west of Lemberg and
along the River Tanew, which runs
easterly across the eastern part OF the
province of Lublin. brought the Galician
campaign to a definite crisis, according
