SPRING -Tl
QPARY
AT ANNUAL JOB OF
v Portland Is . Disfigured With
Shade Trees That Have Been
Butchered in Pruning.
By C. J. Krabct
(C J. Krtcbel. formt xnilnr. Men en
trritMr th fnrwt wrricr, wu entM-d f"r serenU
ymn tn tiad-tm work for the irk department
e Buffalo, N. T., for which h took special
trttnfnc at tit Vniranttr of Mirhlon.
Tree pruning;, to begin with.
sheuld not be confined to spring. In
fact, spring la a bad time to do
heavy pruning, because the plant
hu in It the stored food which It re
quires to begin its growth tn the
spring before the leaves come out.
This food Is Just behind the buds.
By removing the tops of a tree this
stored food is taken away and the
tree is starved. Late summer and
winter are the best times lor trim
ming, because In the latter csuse the
plant has time to adjust - itself for
the coming season, and In late
summer the foliage is -stilt on the
trees and one can determine - the
shape as well as detect decayed
spots.
Among the signs of spring in Port
land Is the appearance of the perennial
shade tree butcher. In many of Port
land's. best 'streets he la now. at work, at
his favorite spring sport of beheading
the trees in the parkways. Before him
stand waiting; avenues of graceful trees,
their branches thrust skyward In all
their natural, beauty behind him he
leaves a trail of gaunt and ugly skele
tons, enly the trunks "of the trees left
standinr with clusters of claw-like stubs
In place of the graceful crowns.
Testerday morning- I walked, on my
way to work, beneath a row of shapely
elm trees ; in the evening I was startled
to see only the ugly stumps of the same
trees left by the "topiary" artists who
had "trimmed" them by cutting off their
entire crowns. There was no excuse for
such mutilation in this case, for their
were no wires to be cleared and the
ttees were not overshadlng any houses.
X'lFFZREXT REASONS GITE7
Asked why this sort of trimming was
done, different people had different rea
sons. One wanted to make a tall slender
tree "spread out" at a lower level: an
other said the trees rrew too fast, a
third wanted less shade. Not one had
any Idea of improving the tree In health
or appearance. These were all good In
tentions but they did not help the trees.
The tendency of all trees is to grow in
a certain definite shape which Is char
acteristic for. each species of tree. After
a few years these "topped" trees, trying
desperately to regain their normal shape,
will have, sent out from the sa wed-off
stubs long Blender sprouts, many of
which droop under their own weight and
make ragged untidy trees. The other
vprouts, being too rapidly grown, are
very weak and are easily broken by
- wind and "silver thaws." The end of it
all is that the owner has all his work
to do over againonly more of It
The whole trouble with this kind of
trimming is that it is so often applied
to the wrong kind of tree. With bass
wood and sycamore, particularly the
European forms, the topping or "head-
lng-m" process can be used with good
(feet, because of the manner In which
tuoee trees sprout. But trees like Amer
ican and English elms and sliver maple
should never be so treated, for they will
always develop tangled and ugly tops.
The streets of Portland are everywhere
disfigured With Just such trees.
HOW to rapsE
The proper system is to let the trees
grow naturally. trim out all dead
branches and the lower living branches
to ret them clear of traffic, head back
the far-spreading top by nipping off the
- nds of the smaller branches with pole
pruners so as to shape the tree to the
desired size "from the outside. In re
moving branches over two inches In
diameter they should always be cut off
in two operations. First saw a small
Ohder-cut about a foot out from the base
of the branch to be removed. Then saw
ctf the branch at a point about an Inch
beyond the undercut That will leave a
short stub which should be sawed off
as close to the trunk as the saw can be
put, so that the healing bark can .crow
completely over the wound. Lastly, paint
the wounded surface with cine paint or
; tar.
It Is most .Important to saw doss to
the trunk or large limb from which a
branch is removed. Leaving stubs six or
12 Inches long Is a sure way to lead
' decay Into the heart of a tree through
the decay of the stub, because the bark
can never grow over such stubs. Even
tually, In place of the stub, there is left
a hole leading to the hollow center of
the tree whose substance has been eaten
. out by decay.
