Show Ouorloacieci Trees. 5S-. P. Barry says, "A tree overloaded Wt with fruit can neither perfect the Hr fruit, nor ripen its wood properly." The grape is very sensitive in this respect, and both trees and vines J&; J should be properly trimmed be- ff V tween now and spring, that the Mtf I roots may not be over-taxed to yield Hp' what little fruit they may chance to H bear. Large fruit is always pref- H' erable to that which is small and Hr poor, but unless the pruning is H properly attended to, you are like- H ly to lose thereby. |
