Children Cry FOR FLETCHER’S OA3TO R I A 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 CARDUI The Woman’s Tonic 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 women for more than fifty years. Get a Bottle Today! , M 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.
