on Monday forenoon. An enthusiastic
company of farmers and fruit grow
ers were there and received much
practical information.
Mr.. Kuehner gave the pruning tools
to the men and put them to work in
the trees, explaining what TO do and
how to do, thus giving the real ex-
perience.
The demonstration brought out the
necessity of pruning the trees, opening
their tops so the light and sunshine
can get into the tree. He also stated
that in the cutting off of limb one
should cut from the under side so the
bark does not split. Cherry trees re-
quire more sunlight into them than
do apple trees and should be so prun-
ed to admit the light.
He further stated that clover was
an excellent crop for the orchard and
could be cut down and left on the
ground as mulch to retain the mois-
ture. The only ANIMALS in orchard
should be chickens and boys and girls.
Do not use your orchards for a pas
ture for the calves and pigs. Another
good point brought out was the pur-
chasing of apple trees and all fruis
trees from the nursery stock of home
dealers.
Mr.. Swartz, of the Swartz Nursery
of Somers, told of his experience with
trees that blossom too heavily. He
said he picked out about half of the
blossom as it was about to set and
from such trees had a much better
yield and better quality, while those
trees from which he did not pick the
blossoms the fruit was not saleable.
Some of the farmers told of the
trouble in selling their apples as the
merchants in the city would not buy
from the local dealers.
In the discussion following the trim
ming of the trees was brought out
that by pruning more regular crops
of greater and more uniform size of
fruit are grown.
The following formula for fertiliz-
ing was given: Nitrate of soda, to
10 pounds per tree as per growth. The
following spray material: Lime sui
pher, l gallon; arsenate of lead, l
pound to 40 gallons Of water.
