PROTECTING Tree Wounds.

No covering of q tree wound Will IN
anywise hasten the healing process
or help form callus. Its sole office
is one of protection from decay, IN
sects, etc., while the stub is gradually
being covered by new growth. Dress
ings should be reapplied whenever the
wood becomes exposed to keep out in
fection until entirely calloused over,
for if decay or other germs, or in
sects once get lodgment, even if the
wound entirely heals over, the infec-
ton may work until the tree dies or
becomes hollow. The callus is formed
by the cambium tissue or inner bark
that lies between bark and wood. The
old wood itself takes no part in the
healing process, but on the contrary
dies and is therefore menace to the
life of the tree. So cut branches as to
leave no stub and then use white lead,
red lead, oil, grating wax, creosote,
tar, asphalt or any material which
completely covers and excludes air and
water.
