It Always Helps
says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., fn
writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman's
tonic. She says further: “Before 1 began to use
Carduf, my back and head would hurt so bad, I
thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able
to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, I began to feel like anew woman. I soon
gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework,
as well as run a big water mill.
1 wish every suffering woman would give

a trial. I still use Cardui when I feel a little bad,
and it always does me good.”
Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness,
tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman
ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman’s
tonic. You cannot make a mistake in trying Cardui
for your trouble. It has been helping weak, ailing

Peach Spraying Time Here
To Control Orchard Pests
Atlanta, Ga., March —(Special).—Georgia’s annual average yield of 6,000
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 anew 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 be mailed to anyone Interested upon application.
The Moat Common Pests.
Prevalence of peach pests and diseases varies In different sections of the
state and, often, In different even though neighboring orchards. The most
common pests and diseases including San Jose scale, Plum Curculio, brown
rot, scab, terrapin scale and peach leaf curl, are controlled by spraying;
the peachtree borer, and other very common pests, the shot hole borer and
the nematode worm must be controlled by mechanical means.
The best control for San Jose Scale is spraying with the lime-sulphur solu
tion. 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
sections of the state these buds are already open, so that it is too late to
spray 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
sap wood and bark. His presence is indicated by the common gummy exuda
tions on the trees. Mounding and worming are the only effective methods
of 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
Pnds most of the worms on the outside of the tree, above the mound, under
gum and other protection, where they are easily removed by scraping with
a worming 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 curculio is
the well known insect which causes wormy peaches. Brown rot 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
Salable,
The spray for curculio shoujd 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 GO gallons of water. Use 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 hoine-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 GO gallons
of water. Thirf 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 out
and burn 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 GO 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 end for the new
bulletin.
