PAGE SIX THE DALTON CITIZEN, THURSDAY, JUNE 23, 1921. TOP WORKING SEEDLING PE- l CANS. The middle of june is the time to begin preliminary work in the work ing seedling pecans,” says A. C. Dibble, assistant Extension horti culturist. The actual budding should not be done, however, until late July and August. Successful top working of pecans depend on preparatory treatment previous to the budding season. The time for this preparatory treatment to begin is in the dormant season, preferably February. If this work was properly done all limbs were cut back to stubs 8 to 12 inches long. Limbs ever 3 inches in diameter should have been cut back at a place where the diameter was not over S inches. In cutting back limbs 4 inches and above in diameter some of the smaller branches and several larger ones should be left to furnish leaf surface until shoots come out. Topping should be done at a place where several branches are well placed to form a good head. The top should be removed with a slop* ing cut just above one of the stubs, this promotes healing. A coat of white lead and linseed oil to all cut surfaces will help to prevent rotting. About the middle of June thin out some of the numerous shoots, leav ing 2 or 3 well placed vigorous shoots to each stub. This will de velop to sufficient size for budding by late July and August. Ring budding is the’most success ful method of budding. A knife constructed especially for the pur pose must be obtained, and waxed cloth prepared. Budding knives may be made at home, or obtained from nursery companies. For bud ding cloth tear ordinary bleaching into 12-inch strips. Tie to prevent unrolling, and submerge in hot graft ing wax for a half hour. Budwood should be selected from good shoots of the present season’s growth from trees of known variety, or it may be bought from nursery men. It can be kept a week or ten days when necessary by wrapping in moist burlap and keeping in a cool SIR FREDERICK SYKES Magic!

Stuart, Schley, Money maker, and Curtis are the varieties suggested. The actual operation of budding is simple but requires carefulness and practice. The buds are usually set 6 to 12 inches from the base of the limb, and on top of it in a smooth round place. Ring the limb with the knife so as to make the cuts coincide when they meet. Se lect a good bud from the stick and ring it likewise. Remove the bark from the limb by slitting it dowr the back and prizing it up with the point of the knife. Then remove the bud likewise and insert it into cut made on the limb. Wrap this firmly with waxed cloth torn in strips half inch wide, leaving only the tip of the bud out. If the bud ring will not meet around the limb it is all right to leave a small open place between the edges of the bud- ring. In fact some budders prefer this, but it is essential that the cuts of the bud ring come in close contact with the bark of the tree. After 21 days the wraps are re moved and it can be seen whether the bud has set or not.—Clemson College News Notes. Smoke Stachelberg’s WHITE SEAL 10c. Maj. Gen.

As soon as the young plants come up the first application is made- During fair weather two applica tions per week are adequate, but during rainy seasons dusting after each rain is necessary. Usually ten to twelve applications per season are required. The dust adheres best, however, when the plants are wet with dew or rain. SHE MAY GO TO LONDON FIND GOOD REMEDY FOR CU CUMBER BEETLE. Through tests for the control of the stripped cucumber beetle, made by the department of entomology, Ohio Experiment Station, in its field laboratory at Marietta, a material that acts as a poison, repellent and fertilizer has been developed. This mixture is composed of one part of calcium arsenate and twenty parts of land plaster. This was found to be superior to twenty-five different materials and compounds tested for controlling the striped cu cumber beetle. The dust may be applied with a simple shaker, made by punching a score of holes with an eight-penny nail into the bottbm of a half-gallon tin can. Miss Dorothy Thompson, grand- daughter of Col.
