Butchering Not Necessary In the
Proper Pruning Of Shade Trees

each other than does the smaller leaf
tree. Rarely is 1t necessary for the
primer to cut back the center leader
of any shade tree. and too often does
this occur to the serious detriment and
permanent deformity of the tree. II Is
best to remove with a pair Of strong
primers or saw only those limbs which
are dead or broken and those which in
terfcre with other branches.
For the safety and convenience OF
ones self and his neighbors and FOR
further enhancing the beauty of our
home and public streets. every owner.
agent. tenant or occupant of any prop
erty should prune all trees in front OF
property owned or occupied by him,
and which overhang the sidewalks or
streets, so that the branches will not
interfere with pedestrians or public
travel.
NOW THE TIME TO PRUNE.
To do this the branches should be
cut to such height that they are at
least eight feet above the sidewalk and
parking and 10 feet above the street.
This, however, does not apply to young
trees where the height and spread Of
branches do not interfere with the
travel of persons on the sidewalk, or
vehicles on the street.
The mild weather which we are now
enjoying affords an ideal time for the
pruning Of the trees and 1t is much bet
ter for the trees than to wait until later
when the trees sap begins to move.
