There is probably no other operation
In the production Of fruit concerning
which there are such vile differences
Of opinion and practice as prevail with
regard to the pruning Of trees. The
fact that trees often produce abun-
dantly and regularly under practically
all systems Of pruning or with no prun-
ing whatever forces the conclusion
that dogmatic statements and rule-of-
thumb directions are unsafe and un-
wise.
The notion has been long prevalent
that cherry trees should not be pruned,
that the wounds made in cutting OF
limbs do not heal readily, and that
the operation Is detrimental to the sue
cess Of the trees. A good many grow
ers have developed their orchards In
accordance with this conception. These
theories. however. do not appear to be
well founded.
While cherry trees may require less
pruning than some other fruits, the
III effects Of allowing the tops to be-
come very dense and bushy hnve be-
come apparent In numerous cases
The most obvious effects Of ncglecting
pruning have been the diminishing size
Of the fruit as the trees have grown
older and Its unevenness In rlpsning.
A number Of cherry growers who have
had this experience have thinned the
tops Of their trees, opening them well
to the sunshine and air.
The pruning which a tree receives
when planted and during the FIRST two
or three years thereafter has much to
do with Its future. Mistakes In FORM
