Another serious mistake on the part of many growers, is to endeavor to harvest enormous crops when their trees are only two or three years old. The result of this unwise policy is in many cases to sacrifice the tree to such an extent that just when it should be bringing profitable returns, it was burdened too heavily when young, and in consequence either dies when it should be in its prime, or it takes years of extraordinary care to restore it to its proper vigor. It is just as much a mistake to expect too much from a young tree, as it is to require a child to do a man's work. The care bestowed for the first two or three years in culti- vating, pruning and irrigating, where the rainfall is insufficient to carry the trees through the long dry summer months, is the foundation tfor the upbuilding of a plant, which will redound to the credit of the owner and give him ample returns for his intelligent care and years of hard but soul-inspiring work. The tendency toward overproduction in young trees is easily eliminated by pruning. Next to thorough cultivation there is noth- ing which is more vital to the life of a tree than this one thing. It is difficult to lay down specific rules on this point, but there are basic ones which can generally be o
