TREE BELIEF
IF A TREE DOES NOT BEAR FRUIT, FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE:
GO OUT IN YOUR GARDEN ONE NIGHT, PREFERABLY IN A FULL MOON
AND CARRY A SHARP KNIFE WITH YOU. TAKE THE KNIFE
AND STRIKE THE
TREE THREE TIMES. AFTER EACH CHOP, REPEAT THE WORDS, TREE
BEAR FRUIT, WITH A STERN VOICE. THE NEXT YEAR ON THAT SAME DAY,
THE TREE WILL BEGIN TO BEAR FRUIT.
