PRUNIN9 THE APPLE TREE

The months OF February and
March are the best months for heavy
pruning. and the following suggestion
may be helpful:
In removing large branches. make
a smooth cut close to the stem OF
branch from which it is removed
Stumps left invite fungi and decay.
In reducing the height of the tree,
or de-horning the tree. never leave
naked stumps. but cut to a leader.
This means that the side branch still
would take the place Of the center
leader removed. and the tree would
not look as II It had been de-horned- ;
II systematic pruning is done. from
year to year. there should be little
occasion for the removal of large
branches. as they would then have
been removed when small
Heavy winter pruning generally en-

OF suckers. and unless these are re-
moved as soon as they appear. the
amount Of pruning to be done the
following year will be greatly increas-
ed.
A good fruit grower viii prune at
all seasons OF the year. for every time
he waIks thru this orchard and sees q
branch or . shoot out Of place. he
removes IT. BY such practice. winter
pruning is largely dispensed with
The necessity for heavy winter prun-
ing arises from the fact that the trees
were not properly shaped and prun-
ed. before they reached the bearing
age. and II the pruning and shaping
has been carefully attended to up to

the time the trees have reached the
sixth year, the subsequent pruning
would be very little. 1t is the neglect
of the young growing trees that
makes the winter pruning so heavy
