CARE OF TREES AFTER WINTER
(Exaerimental Farms Note.)
Last Winter Will long be areraeraber-

hardest on fruit trees of any that has
been experienced.
While peacb trees were allied back

the colder dietricts where the greatest
lessee occurred.
The forms the 'winter Injury took
were root killing, splitting of the bark
at the base of the tree, sometimes
known as "caper rot," bark splitting
, on the trunk .tank killing, crotch in-
jury and killing back of the top. The
fruit and leaf allele on tae trees were
often killed also. While a large nut-
tier of trees clied during 1918, there
were rarely more which went into this
winter In a very weakened condition
and may yet die. 13y the time Druu-
Mg is begun it should be poesible to

Mit of plantiug a young tree half way
between, without too- much shading
from the older trees, it would be well
to plan to do this next spring. Good
amps may be obtained from these In-

the meantime ,the young trees will be
coming into beaeing. Where laid ie
available, however, the s_etting of an

trees may be planted successfully
ware trees were killed last winter,
although it has been safd that young
trees will not do well where an older
tree htte been. Sometimes they do
not, but it is usually due to the fact
that the- older trees that were left
overshadowed them. Where they
have sufficient light they should sue-.
