Prune Cluster After First Thinning 



This is the same cluster of prunes shown in the pre- 

 ceding picture, after the cluster has been partially thinned by 

 tapping with the rubber hose. The second, or hand thinning, will 

 take place in a week or so, at which time one-third to one- 

 half of the prunes here shown will be removed.
