and thus the cavity at thc top on one side not being filled up with new wood becomes a receptacle or moisture and is very apt to decay the other method and the best is to let the stock remain until large enough to be grafted in tbe boughs namely until the trained boughs be itbout an inch in diamcler by taking a view of thc natural enemies of fruit trees we shall be better able to judge of the art requisite to their preservation the enemies of fruit trees are a redundancy ,!»' wood ;
