In field culture, plant in rows from five to seven feet apart (according to the strength of the variety), and three feet dis- tant in rows; in garden culture, plant in rows five feet apart, and plant three feet distant in rows. The pruning should be governed by the growth of the cane, and severe. The canes should be headed back in summer when three feet high, by pinching off the tops, thus causing them to throw out side branches; but when this has been neglected cut back in winter or early spring, the bearing canes one-third or more, according to the growth the plants have made, and cut back the side branches twelve or ^ Boot Cutting Plant. fifteen inches.
