Weaver says that pruning in January and February s'imii la es new' growth and increases vigor. Wounds caused bv the C"f heal more quieklv, and this holes keep the plant free from disea-e. The floriculturist says that the nrincipal objec ion' to winter pruning is that wood is cut out that would flower in a few weeks This is not so serious, he said. If caie is taken. Only the old and leiSB vigorous twigs and branches should be cut out. “Every gardener should un derstand the reasons for prun- iing,” Weaver said. ‘"fhe first reason is to renew the wood. Al' dead wood should be removed Also, it is a.good practice to re move the older branches every year or two, fiO the young vigor ous shoots will have more room for development. “The second reason Is to in crease the profusion of bloom By correc' pruning you get more twigs and as a result,, a corre sponding increase in flowers. “Third, to keep ornamental twig:! attractive.

ANSWER: Seedling trees are delicate and require good atten- (ion, eays R. W. Graeber. exten-; sion forester of State College. Seedlings arrive from the nur sery packed in wet moss. The ' roots must be kept mois' at all times. It is best to plant the trees as soon as they are reciev- ed. However, it it is necessary o keep them for a few days. | they should he heeled-ln in' light, | well drained soil. To do this, dig' a trench, break bundles, spread trees 'in the trench, and cover the roo's and part of the sterne and pack firmly. Keep the soil moist until time to plant the trees.
