To Propagate Gooseberries.
Gooseberries are propagated to some
extent by cutting, but generally by
layers. The earth is heaped in a mound
around the bushes and the young
sprouts will strike roots. They should
be planted In rows 4 by 4 on a rich
heivy soil, well cultivated and heavily
pruned. The fruit grows on the buds
formed on a 2-ywir-oId wood, and on
spurs and buds of older growth. Prun
ing should be directed to cutting Iwek
the new growth and occasionally cut
ting out exlra shoots. Some cultivate
in low tree form, but the shrub form is
the more natural way of growing.
