TREE HABITS VARY GREATLY
Winter PRUNING Tends to Make WOOD
Growth-Surner Work May Tend
to Produce Fruit Buds.

In many cases extreme top pruning
has tendency to produce heavy wood
growth to rejuvenate the trees. Heavy
pruning may develop strong growth Of
water sprouts, which indicates a lack
of equilibrium or balance between the
roots and the top and often causes one
part to live at the expense Of another.
The habits Of trees vary greatly; not
only in manner Of growth from youth
to old age, but there are many varia-
tions in shoot growths. Some have a
tendency to produce strong terminal
growth and when headed in form lat
erals.
Summer pruning, if done at the
proper time and moderately, may tend
to produce fruit buds, while winter
pruning tends to make wood growth.
The relation of leaf and fruit buds
shows considerable differentiation and
every grower might pay more atten-
ton to the bearing buds Of his trees.
With apples and pears, for example,
some varieties will be annual bearers,
while others will bear only once every
two or three years. Some produce
fruit on the end of last years terminal
growth; others on aXillary buds on
last years growth; some produce from
one-year-old spurs, while others will
not produce until the spurs are several
years Of age.
On trees in foliage one will gener-
ally find the new wood bearing leaves
singIy while the old wood throws clus-
ters. The new growth generally
arises from terminal or strong lateral
buds. The terminals may produce
fruit, but this generally develops from
the latara1S

NO EVIDENCE
IN NMURDERCASE

At Wellington last Friday and Sat
urday the case against four young
men, charged with the murder OF an
Indian was heard before Justice OF the
Peace Pierce, and the case was dis
missed for lack Of evidence. No proof
was adduced by the district attorney
of Lyon county to connect the young
men with the murder. The names of
the men are Frank Anderson, Jacy
Clancy, Harry Cline and Earl Parr.
The Indian that was murdered,
formerly lived in the vicinity of Wood
fords and was known as a medicine
man. His death was probably brought
about by mis- failure to heal some sick
member of the Piute tribe. and thus
Travelled the same journey as have
many Indian doctors before him.
