day were spent in the work. One has
to start in the winter in order to get
through before the sap commences to
rise in the spring.
For the small orchard, however, the
average farm orchard Of an acre or
less in size, the pruning should not be
done until from the middle of March
to the middle Of April, just before the
sap commences to rise. If special rea-
sons interfere as to why the work can
not be done at this time, then the old
adage Of "when your knife is sharp
and you are so inclined"
Wounds made in the spring, how
ever, just before the sap commences
to rise begin healing at once, while
wounds made earlier in the season,
as in December and January start
healing several weeks later because
the cold drying winds have killed the
exposed layers Of cells in the grow
ing tissues. Many authorities agree
that the time of pruning is not so i'm
portant as the manner in which it is
done. The cuts should be made with
sharp knife or saw and close to the
remaining branch. Such cuts heal
promptly and thoroughly, while Jagged
cuts having stub often will not heal
at all, no matter at what season of
the year they are made.
