Protect Trees From Rabbits

Protect Trees From Rabbits.

Protect your trees from rabbits. Don't delay this. First remove all borers by digging the dirt from the collar of the tree, scraping it to be sure that no larvae remain. Take a newspaper at least 16 inches long and wide enough to surround the tree. Tie with common wrapping twine at the top to hold in place. No rabbit will ever touch a tree thus treated. Yon need not remove it. Simply cut the string. The paper is most cases will adhere to the tree and serve the purpose of a protector for three years. I have Kieffer pears that have been thus wrapped for three years. It is the cheapest and best wrap ever invented. Any old paper will answer. Try it. You will never buy another veneer or other wrap. It costs nothing, is quickly done and answers every purpose.--Western Fruit Grower
