Shade trees are often too largo, and It Is desired merely to hold thorn for shnde purposes, with out letting them grow larger. When this Is to be done, It Is bettor to pruno them when In leaf, or In mid summer. "However, when ono prunes as lato as October, it really does not mako much difference In regard to tho effect on the tree benuse the leaves have already performed their func tions for the year, merely waiting the time when they will drop away, as they are no longer needed.
