Planting and Pruning —Planting may be done from December to March. Always dig large holes for the roots and add 
some old welhrotted manure. After the tree is set in the hole, work the soil in around the roots and firm with the foot as the 
hole is filled, leaving the last spadeful or two untrodden. Do not plant when the ground is too wet. Deciduous fruit trees 
should be pruned back severely at the time of planting, usually 2/i or 3 feet from the ground, leaving a few side branches 
where necessary, which are cut back to a few inches from the main stem. When the trees have been planted one year, cut 
back half the preceding summer’s growth. Frequent cultivating is necessary.
