'head” and “clover leaf" (a recent development) have served to increase the impression that the operation is formidable. But few pruning specialists will agree that any one form is essential to successful culture.
The method called ‘‘modified leader” consists of allowing the topmost branch (the leadqr) to achieve a growth superior to the other man branches that spring directly from the trunk and are known as “primary scaffolds.” The theory behind this practice is that brandies of Varying size will produce a tree less likely to incur breakage than trees in which the .branches are more or less equal in iwe\ght and size. The “leader” should be “modified” by sufficient pruning to prevent it from becoming too disproportionate—a result which is all too frequently observed.
