PLANTING FRUIT TREES.
By J. G. Moore, Wisconsin Experiment
Station
Several Planting Plans Followed.
There are numerous systems of planting
orchards. Those commonly 'used may
be classed as rectangular or alternate.
The rectangular system is most used.
The trees are set at the corners of a
rectangular area, most often a square.
Not infrequently, however, the sides arc
unequal. This often is the simplest
system to lay out. Its chief disadvant
age is that it does not make economi
cal use of the lands, there being an
area in the center of each rectangular
little used by the trees.
The alternate system. In the alter
nate system the ttees, of the even rows
are placed midway between the trees
of the odd rows. There are three slight
ly different alternate plans commonly
used; quincunx, alternate and hexagon
al.
The quincunx plan overcomes the uu-
lar system. It is based upon the square,
a fifth tree being set in the center of
the square. This reduces the distance
between the rows one-half and prac
tical! v doubles the number of- trees.
Unless the original^rows are more than
30 feet apart, the distance between the
rows is so reduced that orchard opera
tions are difficult. The system is most
often employed when fillers are used.
The true alternate plan is designed
to correct the difficulties arising in
the quincunx. It differs from it
essentially in widening the distance
between the rows and is, there
fore, better adapted to planting under
40 feet. The rows-are placed far
enough apart so that the diagonal dis
tance between trees of adjoining rows
is greater than the distance between
trees in the row and the perpendicular
distance between rows less than in the
distance between trees in the row.
The hexagonal plan distributes the
area equally and economically among
the trees without reducing the distance
between them. In this system the dis
tance between rows is such that the
diagonal distance between trees of ad
joining rows is equal to the distance
between trees in the row. It is some
what more difficult to lay out than the
other systems and not so well adapted
to the use of fillers.
Locating the Trees.
There are many methods of determin
ing where the trees are to be set. The
following will usually be found satisfac
tory when trees are to be set in squares.
Lay out base lines along one end and
one side at the desired distance from
the fence, usually not less than 20 feet,
and at right angles to each other. Set
stakes along these lines at intervals
equal to the distance between trees.
Fasten two wires equal in length to the
distance between trees to a piece of
iron in the form of a right triangle.
The triangle and free ends of the wire
should be fitted with rings for conven
ience in handling.
To locate the remaining trees, hold
the free ends of the wire at one side

stake, making the location for the next
tree, in the comer of the triangle. Us
ing the newly set stake and one previ-
ou ly set, other tree- may be properly
located. It requires three men to oper
ate this device. On sloping areas, the
wires should be kept horizontal and th
place for setting the stake located by
means of a plumbbob suspended from
the triangle.
For locating trees in the hexagonal
system, the method is the same as for
square, except that it is only necessary
to set stakes along one end or side and
that three wires of equal length are
.fastened together to form a triangle
with sides of equal length.
Setting the Tree.
In setting the tree, there are several
details which need careful attention.
One of the first is getting the tree in
the proper position. As it is necessary
in digging the hole to remove the stake
marking the location of the tree, diffi
culty arises in placing the tree in the
proper place.
To- avoid this trouble the planting
board is employed. One in common use
is made from a piece of board four to
Six feet long and six inches wide.
Notches are cut in one side, at the cen
ter, and in either end. The side notcu
is placed over the stake locating the
tree and pins stuck in the ground
through the notches in the ends. The
board and stake may then be removed,
and the hole dug. Replacing the board
over the pins shows the exact location
of the tree.
Top Pruning the Newly Set Trees.
Probably more trees die the first
season after planting from lack: of
proper top-pruning than from any other
one cause. Scarcely, if ever, does the
grower prune his trees too severely at
setting; in almost all cases not enough
is removed. \
Top-pruning should be done just as
soon after planting as possible, as every
day it is neglected lessons the chances
for the tree to withstand the adverse
conditions. When a tree is dug, not
only is the root system multilated, but
by far the greater portion is removed.
Often four-fifths of the root is left in
the nursery. It is evident that if the
top of the tree is not reduced, this
multilated anu greatly lessened root
area will be called upon to supply as
much top with moisture and food ma
terials as the entire root system did
previously. Since the roots cannot do
this the fruit trees should be heavily
top-pruned immediately after planting.
Pruning immediately after planting
is also important in the formation of
the head of the tree and in branched
trees in the selection of the founda
tion branches. No absolute rules can
be given for pruning for this purpose,
because the practice is somewhat dif
ferent for different kinds of fruits and
each tree o.f the same kind offers a dif
ferent set of conditions. A few gen
eral suggestions will help determine the
extent of cutting back.
In pruning one-year-old whips all that
is necessary i s to cut off the tops'’suffi
ciently high to bring the head at the
proper height after allowing from 12 t„
18 inches for distribution of the branch
es. In older stock it is not always pos
sible to get the head at the right height.
Sometimes it is necessary, in order to
secure the desired head, to remove bet
ter branches than some which are to be

left, but if those left are average then
the lower heading is to be preferred.
If the tree is branched, the number of
branches to be. left and their position
depends on the character of the top
desiied. There are two forms of tops
used. The dose centered and the open
centered. Of the latter there are two
types, the vase form and the modified
leader. - The open centered form is
most desirable in sections with short
growing season. This means that m
pruning, the central leader or the
branch making the upright growth from
the center should be cut out if the vase
form is desired, or headed in if the
modified leader method is used.
Too many main branches are usually
left. For the apple, four are sufficient
and frequently three on strong grow
ing trees will be enough to give a good
top. In pruning the cherry and plum,
some growers prefer one or more foun
dation branches which are cut back
more severely than when a lesser num
ber is left. If too many branches are
left at the start, the top becomes too
thick, necessitating the removal of one
or more branches later on. This ean
seldom be done after the second year’s
growth without injury to the form of
the tree.
The branches which are chosen should
be as equally distributed around the
tree as possible. If unevenly distri
buted and the space left wide, they
should be so pruned as to throw the
growth from the top bud of each of the
adj/siningl branches into thdl, vjacant
space. Avoid having the branches come
out from the trunk too close together.
They can extend along the trunk for
18 inches. Although they may appear
spaced too far at first, when the tree
has reached the bearing age, and the
branches have developed, they will b-
close enough together. Avoid as much
as possible V-shaped crotches. They
are weak and the branches are very
likely to split under high winds of
heavy loads of fruit. The modified
leader method is particularly well
adapted to increasing the distahee be
tween foundation branches and giving
strong crotches. Pruning one-year-old
whips the season following planting i3
identical with that for branched trees

PAINT THAT HOUSE!
CJ Of course you are going to paint that house. It needs it and you are not the man to let your
property suffer when a good coat of paint will prevent it.
If you do not care much for the property to be painted perhaps just any old paint is good
enough for it. But it is very doubtful whether it pays to buy cheap paint even then. If you
value the house you live in and would like for it to show up as well as any in the community
there is no way to accomplish it except by applying high-grade paint. First-class paint will
look better, last longer and really cost you less dollars than the off-grades.
AJ Then why should anybody seek and use a low-grade paint? We sell Pee-Gee Mastic
House Paint especially made for Southern homes, and there is no better. Then, besides it
will cost you no more than other paints. The price has been reduced.
