y^Now Ia The Time To Pr t Advises The State Fore: R\ The pruning of th* side limbs R] r of timber trees accomplishes sevI;. eral purposes, advises the State I) Forester. ^The -flrat reasnii fox pruning -ie dido limbs is to remove them when Ti tl.oy are small so that the remain g ing knots will be small and close jr- to the center of the tree. This L- means that after the tree has ^ tl grown larger the lumber cut from cj the tree will have small knots and f: C esc knots will be clustered in a jt Larrow area of the board. Then t,s tee, these small knots wilt not ba -y? decayed and they will bevsolidly ;s encased by sound wood. I ' "The second reason for pruning ^ -?is that if the irqe is to_be turpen j. tined at a lateT~TiRte "the 'race will be free of knots and it will g( bo easier to work it. The lack <5t ~;r t limbs close to the ground also fap cilitales other woods operations p K such as thinnings, improvement ,.( n cuttings, logging and fire oontrol activities. . T "The third main reason for pruning is to provide Ibrush for filling in or covering nearby gul- c: liec. washes or bald places where r< erofeion is?actively taking?place, -g Generally, where trees are wide b spaced and therefore, limby, ero- ci ? sion is active. Hence, pruning of S( - these old-field tre*?3-?nd placing j, F tlie material on the eroding lands [T accomplishes two things at the t] L , same time. ti "The pruned branches often sup j, e ply kindling . or fuel but if not ,T UBed they should not be left in =^=-?ontaot Jvith -living trees on ac p ?,?rrnnt. of the increased fire haz | ""ard. Pruning should be done dui A ins the * winter months when the ^ trees are (JdWraTSt~Wd th5 dangOT ~ . - of insect attack is low. . "When pruning either forest 1 . trees or -shade trees the limb q chould?be severed -clostrrto?the- ? tr^nk so that no stub projects, j . Projecting stubs are fertile places ^ L- for the^ entrance of insects and c diseases but they heal over quick- ' ly. and cleanly if they are cut close to the trunk. Pines evnde n pnnt o f gum which protects the 11 wounds. Hardwoods do not ex- ? u^c this gum but if the limbs are cut when they are small the dang-. c c of infection is low. However, -large wounds on hardwood shade * trees should be coated with painty . of n tree dressing preparation. "Hastily pruned shade trees in '! If.ct summer's hurricane area ^ should be gone over this winter in ^ o'der that they may be placed in . the best condition to recover from ^ therr'^voilmls": "Atten liurr--?m4? a small outlay of time or funds will save large outlays at later dates. S "Naturally, the forest trees to be pruned should he carefully se- ^ >ected so that this work is done i only on trees which will grow in- F to saw logs, veneer logs, poles, a piling, crossties or " turpentine 1 trees. Pruning is time consum- o ing and time should not be ex pended on trees which will pro ^ duce only low grade products i such as fuel or pulpwood used for j making brown paper. The num R ber of trees selected for pruning M.l.nll.. Jll ? u?.uau^ w hi iiui exceea auu per j acre in a fully stocked stand. "Another important thing: to re c member is that only small planted or forest trees not more than onefourth of the live limbs should be removed during any one year as needles and leaves are vital for the growth of a tree and the re- t moval of any of them retards the / frrowth. If a fourth of the live ( ??*?then- two years ohould elapse he?^ fore additional limbs are remor c ed."
