Although In at least two states

Cherries are sensitive to a poorly

Most sweet varieties begin to bear

years old. Up to this time they should

be kept sufficiently open to admit light

IN the past, two-year -old trees have

growers. but there Is evidently a grow
ing preference for trees that have
made only one seasons growth in the

trees usually give satisfaction. They

Where the winters arc severe and

ed a high percentage Of failure Il

pains should be taken to hold the trees
In a perfectly dormant condition until
they are set out. very early planting

Handling Trees when Received.
The trees should be unpacked i'm
mediately after delivery and every
possible precaution taken to prevent
the roots from becoming dry. This
rule should always be observed when
planting trees. Unless the number or
trees is so limited that immediate
planting Is possible and the time for
doing It 10 at hand. they should be
heeled In. For this purpose a thor
oughly well drained place where the
soil Is mellow and deep Is required. A
trench sufficiently wide and deep to
receive the roots Is made. and the
trees are placed in It in the manner
shown In figure 3. In covering, the
soil should DO worked among the roots
sufficiently to fill all the spaces be-

Of clay. The puddle should be OF such
consistency that a thin layer OF mud
will adhere to the roots when dipped
into It. This will AFFORD considerable
protection. though even with this
treatment the exposure of the roots
to sun and wind should be reduced
to a minimum. II only a few trees are
to be planted It will be more con-
venient to protect them by keeping
the roots covered with wet gunny-
sacks OF some other coarse fabric.
In hllng the hole after a tree
has been put into position and
properly aligned only finely pulverized
soil should be used. In this part OF
the operation much care should be
taken to work the soil in closely about
the roots This may be done to some
extent with the fingers. Moving the
tree up and down slightly as the hole
Is being filed will help to settle the
soil among the roots. AS the filing
progresses the soil should be firmly
tamped about the roots and when COM
pleted the hole should be filled even
with the surface.
Pruning at the Time OF Planting.
Wide differences exist in the man.
ner OF pruning and forming the tops
Of the trees at planting time, though
they may be grouped into two general
methods; ~ Forming the tSn with
run e to NV or six main ffshiework
branches OF equal Importance and (2)
forming the top with a central leader
and with several secondary branchss
which radiate from II.
The method most widely used Is
where the top is formed OF several
! main frame or scaffold branches. This
method properly followed produces a
tree with an "open centre" The man
ner OF shaping trees when they are
planted in accordance with these two
methods or ideals Is shown In figure 8
The open centre method OF shaping
a tree at the time II is planted Is
further illustrated in figure 6, which

sary to leave trees heeled in over win
tor they should be placed in a nearly
horizontal position, so that the entire
trunk below the branches can be COW
ss~d with soil for protection.
Planting the Trees.
Cherry trees are planted at various
distances apart, depending upon the
soil. the varietal characteristics Of the
trees and the preferences and concep-
tons Of the individual grower. For
most sour varieties 20 by 20 feet Is
generally accepted as satisfactory.
Occasionally a grower is found who is
convinced that 20 or even 25 feet apart
each way gives none too much space
for the strong growing varieties like
the Montmorency. Some of the smaller
growing sorts, such as the English
Morel.o,> are sometimes planted 16 or
is feet apart each way with good
success.
Probably 25 feet each way n the
minimum distance advisable for sweet
cherries, while not a few growers pre-
fer from 2s to 80 feet each way in the
conviction that in the end the greater
amount OF space IL more satisfactory.
In preparing a tree for planting all
mutilated or injured portions Of the
roots should be trimmed of and long,
slender roots, II they occur. cut Off to
correspond with the length Of the main
roots.
Undue exposure Of the roots during
the period that eiapses between the
trimming and the planting Of the
trees will injure them. This danger
can be eliminated largely by pudding

consists in dipping them in a puddle

season after planting two or three Sec

PruninE.
While cherry trees may require less
pruning than some other fruits. the i'll
effects Of allowing the tops to become
very dense and bushy have become
apparent in numerous cases, The
most obvious effects OF neglecting
pruning have been the diminishing
size of the fruit as the trees have
grown older and it's unevenness in
ripening. y number of cherry grow
ers who have had this experience
have thinned the tops OF their trees,

developed to a good size and the crop
has ripened uniformly, SO that all Of
1t could be harvested at a single pick

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
