Wills rnfnranrm in nrnninp dplavina i ,. I (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture. Toruntu.) In conjunction with our recommen- dations on pruning given below we wish also to make certain recom- iiiendatioiis as to distances of plunt- I ling to those growers who C(JIilC`lI`r plate setting out new orchards. In peaches, for example, we are of the opinion that, taking one variety with another, eighteen feet apart eacn way, or the equivalent should be the absolute minimum distance. Twenty feet would be a better distance. Cor.- siderably fewer trees to the acre can be set, but it is probable, though not proven, that just as much fruit to the acre will be harvested as if the I I !0l`ChE1I`(I were more closely planted. `Then, too, fewer trees means less capital outlay for nursery stock, less lpruning, greater ease in orchard operations such as pruning, spray- ing, cultivation. harvesting, etc., less susceptibility to disease, and there- fore longer life for the trees. Inter- crops also can be grown for 21 greater length 01' tithe and with less injury to the orclmrtl ti`:-:9-:4 u.u,:,mu u; Luuc unu nu Jess u1_1u1'y: to tile (:.I`cl1:11\l Lnses.

This 1 storing up of surplus food naturally takes place first in the unprunedii tree with its greater leaf surface and . the unpruned tree is therefore the first to come into bearing. ` Pruning Recon:memlwtions. u.-ma Ixnnlr f`\n rnnnn tr-an nf night- \.aAA.uA\.\4u I That the Chief or one 01` his mon meet mail train when possiblo. 1 4.
