Cram said. "A good clean summerfallow prepared a year in advance of planting, is the best insurance for obtaining maximum tree survival," he said. FRONTIERS OF SCIENCE Between day and night, and country and country, man is used to variations of temperature up to ioo degrees. Dr. Cram said that equally important is the post-planting care given to young trees.

When trees are small, tooth or shovel cultivators may be adjusted to the row spacing and operated to cover two or more rows at a time, he said. "Weeds should be eradicated when they are small, requiring several passes each year during the early stages of tree growth. When trees are planted four to six feet apart further intertillage will likely be required after three to five years, as the shade created by the trees will usually prevent further development of damaging amounts of weeds and grass," he said.
