FRUilf^iPWERS PRUNING NEWLY SET TREES. Different !Metlio !«* Adopted For Pencil and Standard Pear and Apple Trees.

XEWLT PET THEEB. more usual way is to whip prune the tree. Tho aim of all is the same—namely, to produce a good, stiff foundation on which to build up tho branches at proper height. Fig. 1 of tho accompanying illustration, from a bulletin of tho Cornell university station, shows a well grown, strong peach tree, and Fig. 2 tho same tree properly pruned. This stylo of handling poach trees usually gives escellt tit results. Professor Bailey thinks it better to leave spurs with at least one bud than to trim to a mere whip. Tin ro should also bo a numbe>r of strong, bright buds left upon the top, for these aro tho points where early growth begins, ho says. For standard pear and apple trees of fair size American Gardening adopts a different stylo of pruning. In Fig. 8 we sco a strong, well grown and well branched pear tree. The same tree, properly trimmed for planting, is shown in Fig. 4. A small number (from three to five) of tho beet branches aro left and these headed back to within a few buds each. The branches left on, of course, must be carefully selected, so that the stubs start from the body at the proper height to form a good top. Usually wo cut tho trees back in the manner here suggested before planting. Professor Bailey suggests leaving the tops on until after tho trees aro set, since one can then better estimate tho proper height of starting tho top, tho operation is easier done, and there is no further danger of breaking off tho limbs by the handling of the trees. Budding and Grafting. The apple is propagated by budding upon the seedling apple root, and also by grafting on the same root. In budding it is necessary to use good, strong, thrifty stocks. In grafting also good stocks should be employed, and enough of the root should be used so that the graft may unite and start well and grow vigorously. There is some confusion about grafting which should not exist. Grafting on pieces of root is correct, providing the pieces aro large enough. Our practice is to use the root of one seedling for a graft. Some make more grafts from the single root, but this is a mistake, we think. Tho pear is propagated by buddiug and grafting, but at the present time almost exclusively by budding r.t tho north. In the south some varieties, like Keiffer and Lo Conte, may bo grown from cuttings, but even there it is only in a few localities that these varieties can bo successfully grown in that way. The best method of propagating the plum is by budding upon tho plnm, writes a noted horticulturist to Rural New Yorker.

A I>«‘»irahle Shrub. Tecoma stans is a very decorative lawn plant, stately in appearance and with vivid green foliage and golden yellow, trumpet shaped blossoms. It blooms continuously and profusely, and its branches are often weighted down with its wealth of (lowers. Tho assuranoo is given in Gardening that if cut down by frost it soon grows up again. Its blossoms aro followed by peculiarly shaped fruit, o-ich < f which contains a hard shelled seed which, when pl anted, germinal s very roauiiy. The plant is also increased by root division and from cuttings. 'Vhon in the prime of its beauty—tk .t Is, when e,.vnrnd with 1 blossoms and fruit—it calls forth exclamations of praiso from all who behold it.

Who Own. a Line Tree? A case has been tried in Philadelphia as to th - ownership of n tree on too line between two properties. It is a maple true, two-toil Ja of the trunk being "H one side and ono-third on the property of the one threatening to cut tho tree away. This is presumptive proof that the tree started on tlio property of iho one objecting to the tree’s destruction. As tho one desiring to cnt.it away permitted its growth to extend within his line he can probably have no say in the tree’s destruction. The court favored this view. An injunction was granted restraining the cutting away of the tree. Oi :y a joint agreement can cut tho tree away, says Median's Monthly.
