PRI MING PEACH TREES
INCREASES FRUIT SIZE,
AIDS FRUIT GROWTH
Continued from First Pege)

pruned To prevent development of
long main branches which are bar
rem Of fruitin2 wood This can
best he done by heading back with
fairly large cuts one to one and
.one-half inches in diameter -rath-
er than more numerous smaller
cuts. Heading hack the main and
secondary branches will tend to
keep the bearing wood closer to
the ground so that spraying and
picking may be done more easily.
Each cut should be made at
point where another smaller
branch begins. and no stubs
should be left As with apples. the
painting of large cuts is of little
or no benefit
On old trees il is sometimes nee
eSSary to make rather large cuts
to bring the fruiting wood nearer
the ground. This may be done by
cutting. the main or secondary
branches below this point should
be left on the tree. Stubs Is to
- inches are usually left. and the
branches arising from these stubs
may he trained as a new tree.
Both sour cherry and plum trees
should be pruned by the same prin-
cipleS as peach trees. but their
pruning should be very light-only
about half to Onc-third as severe
as for peaches.
