PRUNING
A FEW REMINDERS. Where tree pruning has been delayed through inclement weather, make a point of getting the peaches, plums and cherries finished first. Sap flow will soon be accelerated, and these kinds of fruits are prone to excessive bleeding and gumming if newly cut when growth begins. Sometimes gardeners have been compelled to complete pruning apples, pears, gooseberries and currants after the buds have broken into growth. On these kinds. of trees the late pruning has been done with no apparent detriment.
