PROTECTING YOUNG TREES 
The trunks of young trees should be protected to prevent 
sunburn—and invasion by borers which often follows such 
injury. Tree protectors are the best for this purpose, as they 
also help to prevent mechanical injury. If tree protectors are 
not used, whitewashing the trunks will do much in prevent¬ 
ing sunburn. A good whitewash formula is: 
5 pounds lime (unslaked) 
Va pound table salt 
1/4 pound sulphur 
Mix the dry ingredients, and pour slowly into a pail of 
water, stirring constantly. The whitewash is applied with a 
brush and should be the consistency of thick paint.
