PRUNE TREES LIGHTLY
FOR BEST PEACHES
Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 19. —Peaches
from trees lightly pruned have sold
for 25 to 50 cents more per bushel
than from trees heavily pruned.
While the increases in yield per tree
are not so heavy, light pruning does
give better color, more uniform
fruit, higher marketability and a
reduced pruning cost.
"Due to the dense foliage caused
by heavy pruning, the color of the
peaches is poor and insect and dis
ease injury is usually greater," says
M. E. Gardner of the department of
horticulture at State College. "The
bearing area is also restricted. Light
pruning together with careful thin
ning always pays best."
But, states Mr. Gardner, the
grower must remember that there
are three stages in pruning a peach
tree. These are, the formative period
when the tree is so pruned as to
get its scaffold branches, the transi
tion period when the tree is chang
ing from heavy wood growth to
fruit production and the fruiting
period when light pruning will pay
best. Mr. Gardner states that after
the formative period, the modern
tendency has been toward lighter
pruning. This has resulted in de
creased pruning costs, larger yields,
better color and more first grade
fruit per tree.
Light pruning, explains Mr. Gard
ner, consists of thinning the tree
enough to admit sunlight and a free
circulation of air with a minimum of
heading back. Trees that have been
lightly pruned for a period of years
have a spreading habit and the limbs
bear down under the weight of the
fruit. This not only opens up the
tree to admit sunlight but also puts
most of the peaches within reach of
ground pickers. It also gives a
better distribution of fruit through
out the tree and seems to establish
a better balance between root sys
tem and top.

'MUMS FEED HEAVY:
MUST BE DIVIDED
/- j
Raleigh, Nov. 19.—Chrysanthe
mums are hardy, are beautiful
around the home in late fall and
when established will live for many
years.
"Yet they will not thrive indefi
nitely without transplanting," says
Glenn O. Randall, floriculturist at
the North Carolina State College.
"When a planting of chrysanthe
mums is once made and becomes es
tablished it will live for a number
of years but a close observer will
note that after a year or so, the
blossoms will not be so large and the
stems will become shorter. This is
because the flower is a very heavy
feeder and soon exhauses the plant
food in most soil types. Then too
the plants become so massed togeth
er that there is not enough room for
the roots to feed."
For this reason, the best practice
is to propagate new plants from the
original stock each year. This may
be done easily, says Mr. Randall,
by taking soft-wood cuttings from
the old plants in early spring when
the new growth has become three or
four inches long. Remove these new
shoots from the parent plants by cut-
I ting straight across the stem. Re-
I move at least two thirds of the leaf
| area and place the cuttings in a sand
j box immediately. In a few days,
rootlets will appear. When these
roots are about one-half inch in
length, the young plants are ready
for setting.
In rooting the new cuttings it is
important to have the sand moist but
not wet. After the new cuttings have
set in the bed, cultivate them care
fully and add plant food gradually.
By following this method, Mr. Ran
dall finds the home gardener will
have excellent, long-stemmed and
well-flowered plants that are a de
light about the home each fall.
