good things, and I’m sure if we, every

be less confusion in the world. We
will be glad for him to come again.

The ingredients from which the
celebrated medicine Tanlac is made,
come from remote sections of the
earth, and are transported thousands
of miles over land and sea to the
great Tanlac Laboratories at Dayton,
Ohio, and Walkerville. Canada.
The Alps, Appeniqes, Pyrenees, Rus-
sian-Asia, Brazil, West Indies, Rocky
Mountains; Asia Minor, Persia, India,
Mexico, Columbia and Peru are among
the far away points from which the
principal properties of this remarkable
preparation are obtained.
What is said to be the largest phar
maceutical laboratory in the United
States has been completed at Dayton,
Ohio, for the manufacture of Tanlac
which, according to recent reports, is
now having the largest sale of any
medicine of its kind in the world;
over 20,000,000 bottles having been
sold in six years.
The new plant occupies 60.000 square
feet of floor space and has a daily
capacity of 50,000 bottles. Uniform
quality is guaranteed by a series of
careful inspections by expert chemists
from the time the roots, herbs, bark
and flowers are received in their
rough state from all parts of the globe
until their medicinal properties have
been extracted by the most approved
processes. The finished medicine is
then boitled, labeled and shipped out
to tens of thousands of druggists
throughout the United States and
Canada to supply a demand never be
fore equalled by this, or any other
medicine.

the injury being more severe in sou
thern part of state. I doubt if the
state as a whole will produce more
than a quarter of the crop produced
in 1920. Prof. V. R. Gardner.
North Carolina.
Raleigh.—While most varieties of
apples have had large percentage of
fruit buds killed, but there are still
enough left to produce a good crop.
It requires only about 15 per cent
to 20 per cent of normal bloom of an
apple to produce a full crop.
N. C. Dept, of Agr.
New York.
Rochester.—Though we have had
several late frosts our fruit planta
tions, both large and small, seem to
promise fairly good crops. Small
fruits do not seem to be injured at
all. Cherries injured most, and a-
pricots next. Apples, pears and
plums not injured. Reports on
grapes vary. It is a surprise to
everybody to see the peach blos
soms coming through in good con
dition after severe freezing and
snow r storms. Chas. A. Green.
Ohio.
Surveys made by the Ohio Experi
ment Station regarding the recent
frost inury to fruit shows that a fair
crop of apples may be harvested in
northern Ohio.
In southern Ohio many of the
commercial varities have suffered
heavy loss.
Specialists report that apples this
year produced a ten-fold crop of
blossoms, and were able to with
stand freezing without complete loss.
The prevalence of late-blooming
varieties of apples in northern Ohio
will help the .chances for a crop of
apples as is also the case with late-
blooming cherries.
Only along the Lake shore, how
ever, will a peach crop be harvested.
Plums in general were completely
destroyed by frosts.
An unusual occurrence of winter
injury in young apple orchards in
northeastern Ohio is reported de
spite the mild winter temperature.
Generally, only after a severe winter
is freezing injury to the trunks of
trees noticed.
At this season of the year when
the days are f becoming hot, lice and
mites multiply very rapidly, and if
they are not, checked, will soon be
come so numerous that young chicks
as well as the grown chickens can
not live among them.
By examining the roost poles and
nests carefully each week, one may
easily learn yvhether mites are pres
ent- Their ’habits are very much
like those of the common bed bug.
They suck the blood at night from
the chicks and hide during the day
in cracks and crevices. Their com
mon hiding place is on the under
side of the roost poles, or in cracks
on the roost poles, or where the
roost poles rest on some of the tim
ber. If mites are discovered get
busy at once with a 5 per cent solu
tion of kreso dip No. 1. This can be
bought from almost any drug store
in quart, half gallon, and gallpn
cans; and one quart of kreso dip
will make twenty quarts of the solu
tion when mixed with nineteen
quarts of water. This is a 5 per
cent solution. With a strong spray
pump, spray the inside of the houses
and coops with this solution until
every particle of timber is wet with
it and aU cracks are filled with it.
All nests should be cleaned out and
contents burned. Repeat this treat
ment once a week about three or
four times, and then whitewash the
houses thoroughly, filling all cracks
and crevices with a good thick
whitewash. After this watch every
month during the hot summer days
for the reappearance of the mite, as
there might be a few left from the
treatment.
Lice have quite different habits
from the mites. Lice live on the
bodies of the chickens and it is nec
essary to examine little chicks and
grown chickens to discover their
presence. If found on the bodies
of grown chickens, they should be
furnished a good strong dust with
plenty of ashes and pulverized moth
balls. If it is not convenient to
get the pulverized moth balls, use
powdered tobacco stains or snuff.
Sulphur also is good to mix in the
dust bath. If hens are furnished
this kind of dust bath they usually
will keep their bodies clean of lice.
Lice cannot stand a dust. It is well
also, when lice are found on the
eggs, to pick each hen up separately
and give her a strong dusting with
some chick disinfectant or lice kill
er. A very good one is Pyrethrum
Powders.

THE OUTLOOK FOR FRUIT FOR
THE YEAR 1921.
According to reports received
from reliable horticulturists through
out the country, the outlook for
fruit this season is very spotted. In
some sections apples and peaches
have suffered badly. But certain
favored sections will have their
usual amount of fruit. The reports
are as follows:
Alabama.
Auburn: North Alabama—Apples;
bloom light, set very poor, crop 10
per cent. Peaches.—Bloom heavy;
fruit damage very severe; crop very
light. Pear.-r-Bloom good; set good;
crop light, account of cold.
Central Alabama. — Apple—Bloom
light; set fair; no damage; 25 per
cent. Pear.—Bloom good; crop only
fair. Peach.—Bloom heavy; set
good; crop 50 per cent to 75 per
cent.
South Alabama.—Peach crop poor,
not over 30 per cent crop. Citrus
crop promises well.
Prof. G. C. Starcher.
Boaz.—Apple crop short on ac
count of heavy crop last year. I
will have possibly 600 bushels of
apples. No peaches.
Chas. W. Ewing.
Arkansas. i
Decatur.—Peaches all killed, and
apples believed to have met same
fate. Pears and plums killed.
Strawberries, blackberries and
raspberries, 50 per cent.
E. N. Plank.
Fayetteville.—No apples, peaches,
plums or cherries in Northwest Ark
ansas. Good prospects for full crop
of peaches in Howard county, where
the 3500-acrp Bert Johnson orchard
is located. About 15 to 20 per cent
Grobecker’s Swiss Yodlers will give a full concert and a prelude at the
coming five-day Redpath Chautauqua.

ments of the Swiss mountaineers.
