Peach Spraying Time Here
To Control Orchard Pests
Atlanta, Ga., March (Special).—Georgia’s annual average yield of 5,000
carloads of peaches is in splendid demand at good prices the country over,
because Georgia grows a perfect fruit. Georgia's peaches are perfect because
the fruit is properly cultivated and, more important still it Is properly and
systematically sprayed.
Where the fruit is not so sprayed, it is not perfect, It is less desirable and,
if marketable at all, it brings an inadequate and far from satisfactory price.
Whether you have one tree or a whole orchard, spraying is equally necessary,
If you would have perfect peaches. There is no other way.
The State Board of Entomology has just prepared a new bulletin on the sub
ject of peach pests and diseases, together with preventive remedies. This
bulletin which is the most exhaustive treatment of the subject the depart
ment has yet published, will b? mailed to anyone interested upon application,
The Most Common Pests.
Prevalence of peach pests and diseases varies in different sections of the
itate and, often, in different even though neighboring orchards. The most
common pests and diseases including San Jose scale. Plum Curcullo, brown
rot, scab, terrapin scale and peach leaf curl, are controlled by spraying;
’he peachtree borer, and other very common pests, the shot hole borer and
the nematode worm must be controlled by mechanical means.
I’he best control for San Jose Scale is spraying with the lime-sulphur solu-
Ti'CM. Where the trees are badly infested, there should be two sprayings,
one in the fall and the other known as the “winter or dormant" spraying
within the last three weeks before the bloom buds begin to open. In most
jections of the state these buds are already open, so that it is too late to
tpray for the scale at this time—the latter part of March.
The peachtree borer is the insect that bores Into the tree and lives on the
Bap wood and bark. His presence is indicated by the common gummy exuda-
Vons on the trees. Mounding and worming are the only effective methods
et’ dealing with him. The building of cone-shaped, compact dirt mounds
around the trees about the middle of August, prevents the larvae or young
worms from getting into the base of the tree. The latter part of October
finds most of the worms on the outside of the tree, above the mound, under
guai and other protection, where they are easily removed by scraping with
a aormiug hook.
Spraying Tree Now.
The important pests to which orchardmen should give attention right now
by spraying are plum curculio, brown rot and peach scab. The curcutio is
the well known insect which causes wormy peaches. Brown roL is
a fungus disease which attacks blossoms, twigs and fruit. The fruit finally
rots and falls to the ground. Peach scab is a common skin disease, par
ticularly of late maturing varieties, rendering the fruit unsightly and less
salable.
The spray for curculio should be applied just as the shucks are shedding.
Use 3-4 of a pound of powdered arsenate of lead (or 1 1-2 pounds lead paste)
and three pounds of lump lime, to 50 gallons of v ater. Uso a wide nozzle
throwing a fine mist; thoroughly cover but do not drench the trees.
For brown rot, curculio and scab, spray four weeks after the petals drop,
or about three weeks after the first spraying for curculio, with home-cooked
lime—sulphur solution and powdered arsenate of lead in the proportion 8
pounds lime, 8 pounds sulphur and 1-2 pound arsenate of lead to 50 gallons
of water. This same spray should be again applied, for same diseases, about
one month before the ripening period. The disc opening of the nozzle this
time should be slightly larger so as to give coarser spray and heavier coating
to the fruit.
The shot hole borer is an insect which bores into the tree very much as
If it had been struck by a bird shot. The only effective control is to cut oul
and bum infested limbs.
Peach Leaf Curl.
Peach leaf curl, a foliage disease, attacks the leaves, causing them to curl,
to become discolored and finally drop to the ground. It is controlled by the
lime-sulphur spray used for San Jose scale. If there is no scale, a weaker
solution of the same spray will suffice.
For peach crown gall, terrapin scale and nematode worm, which are less
common, see bulletin for directions.
For spraying for scale where lime-sulphur solution Is used, the lime-sulphur
concentrate has taken the place of the old-fashioned home-made lime-sulphur
solution. The concentrate is made by cooking 100 pounds sulphur and fifty
pounds of lime In 50 gallons of water, and this is then diluted to 350 or 400
gallons as needed. Kept air tight, the concentrate will last for a long time.
For spraying for scale where lime-sulphur solution is used, the lime-sulphur
Spraying time is here. If you have much of it to do send for the new
bulletin.

HOLOERS IF REVENUE
LIGENSESJN DECATUR
In this issue as is required by
law, the Sheriff is publishing a
list of the Liquor Dealers Licen
ses that are held in this county.
It will be also noticed that three
drug firms in the county have
these licenses.
In the literal construction of
the law as is generally believed
thi3 holding of the license carri
ed with it some question as to
whether a man is selling whiskey
or not. The Federal laws require
the druggist to have this license
or alcohol cannot be supplied the
people that have to have it. If
the druggist ‘fails to have this
license he is in violation of the
Federal law and it he does have
them some people are liable to
misconstrue it to mean that they
are engaged in an unlawful busi
ness.
The purpose of this article is
to let the people know that a
druggist is required by the
Federal Law to have these
licenses and it is in keeping with
this business to have them or
risk prosecution in the Federal
Courts. In the filling of pre
scriptions, in the work of sever
al important lines of trade
acohol has to be used ample pro
vision has been made by law to
take care and carry on such
trades and it does not not rest
on the druggist to make answer
to suspicion as it would if some
one engaged in some other line
of business should hold a license.
This is merely an explanation
)f the matter because of the fact
that this is the first time the
list has been published and some
people are very quick to mis
construe such matters. The
druggists in the countv holding
the license as required by the
Federal Law are the Ehrlich
Drug Co., of Bainbridge, and the
Palace Drug Co., of Donalson-
ville.
If any drug store is selling
alcohol, or any prescription con
taining alcohol, for even trade
purposes and do not hold a
Revenue license they are violat
ing the Federal laws and are
liable to prosecution. If any
other business holds a license
they rest under the suspicion of
being in an unlawful business
and the recent laws make the
holding of a license of this kind
by any other than a licensed
drug firm a prima facie evidence
chat they are tigering. This is
merely to inform the people
the real meaning of the publish
ing of the list of License Holders
of this county.
