Good Care Of Trees
Will Offset Losses
In Fruit.

In spite % the fact that freezing
has ruined the posShilities for a
heavy fruit crop in many Kentucky
orchards farmers can partially offset
the losse. which may be sustained b.
giving their trees special care and
attention during the coming summer.
thereby encouraging heavy pro
duction next year, according TO spec
iah.ts from the horticultural depart
ment % the College of Agriculture.
Pruning Is one of the surest means
of increasing crop production In many
Kentucky orchards. the specialists
state. and In order 10 help farmers
in this work a special circular. No.
%, has been published and Is being
issued by the college. The publica-
tion Is complete guide on pruning
old trees and care of young ones and
in addition 10 number of general
principles contains all suggestions
necessary in training and pruning
apple. peach. plum, pear and sour
cherry trees. Il Is also wcll-illustrat-
ed and contains a number ~ pictures
showing where and hoN to make the
pruning cuts and points to be guard
"a against in removing branches and
fruit spurs.

practice results In an undersiEcd tree

apple trees. Suggestions are also
given about care of such trees when
they are taken from the nursery and
the attention which should be given
them when they are one and two
years old.
The pruning - old apple trees
should largely consist q correcting
the crowded conditions % the lower
part Of the tree by the removal Of
old branches especially those which
contain old worn-out fruit spurs
Pear trees should be pruncd prae
