 of supplementing standard trees than in superseding 

 them, but it is still worth consideration. So that, 

 after all, when we say that dwarf fruit trees are not

 not take the place of standard trees. The large market 

 orchards must always continue to be made up of stan- 

 dard trees ; but in their own way the dwarf trees will 

 find a limited place even in commercial operations, 

 and this use of them seems destined to be more general 

 in the future than it has been in the past.
