Good Fruit
The summer spraying schedule for
orchards starts as soon as the trees
leave out, or bloom. An entirely
different set of sprays is used for
summer spraying. Trees in the sum
mer are tender and easily hurt with
sprays, and it is therefore important
to be sure of what you are doing
■when spraying this time of year.
Why Spray
Trees are sprayed in the summer
to protect the fruit. Protection is
needed against diseases and insects.
The insects are controlled by spray
ing with poison sprays. The diseases
are controlled with sprays which kill
germs of fungus growths. Usually
insects and diseases are controlled by
mixing the sprays for both together.
Peaches
Peaches should be sprayed with
one pound of arsenate of lead, three
pounds of lime mixed in 50 gallons
of water, just as soon as the petals,
of flower leaves shed. The petals
are the red of white blooms which
fail off on the ground soon after
blooming. This is the F'IRST SUM
MER SPRAY, and is for control of
the beetle which causes wormy
peaches. The next spray is of the
same material, and is made about
ten days after the first one, or when
the shuck begins to shed from the
young peach.
Information will be given from
time to time by letter to those who
ask their names to be placed on the
Special Orchard mailing list.
It takes from four to six spravs
for peaches to protect them all the
summer. Spray materials this year
are easier to make than usually.
Apple*
First summer spray is made when
leaf buds burst, but before the
blooms open. If blooms should open
before leaf buds burst, then delay
spraying those trees until alter p , als
fall.
This first spray is made with one
gallon of lime-sulphur solution mixed
with 40 gallons of water, and one
pound of arsenate of lead mixed in.
This spray is to control scab and the
wormy apply, at the same time.
The second spray for apples is
the same as above, and is made when
the petals, or blooms shed off on the
ground, and NOT LATER.
Special instructions will be sent out
to those who ask that their names
be placed on the orchard list. It
takes from four to seven sprays in
the summer to control apple diseases,
depending on how late the variety is.
Spray
If you have never sprayed your
.trees do so at once. Start now, so
you wont miss a single summer spray.

from Sun Readers ,
Hartwell, Ga., March 9, 1925. 1
Editors Hartwell Sun Some few ’
days ago we heard a director of the I
new Hartwell Railway Co. organiza
tion express himself as very appre- >
ciative of the splendid spirit of co- i
operation the people of Hartwell and
of the county were showing toward
the railroad, which, by the way, I
consider the most important factor
in the county along business lines.
Without the railroad, farm lands
and city property would not be near ’
the figure it now brings here; freight
would be Almost doubled perhaps, in
some instances on account of hauling
by truck from railroad points, there
by adding to the cost to the con
sumer here.
But getting back to the remark
of the director: He said the merchants
were, in most instances, having their
freight routed over the Hartwell Rail
way via the Southern Railway, and
other connecting lines, with which
the local company works, and that
W'hile the task of taking over a rail
road was one of more or less risk
and would take months to work out
as to details, the new officials were
made to feel that they were not alone
in the task.
And while we are on this line of
thought, we should feel, as citizens,
that while the railway problem has
been settled at least temporarily in
Hartwell, it is none the less our duty
to continue talking and boosting busi
ness for the road, and to not only
keep up the volume of business the
road has had, but to increase it if
possible, by having everything we
can shipped here as freight.
We notice occasionally trucks de
livering shipments from other towns
directly to our stores. While we
understand that this is not a custom
of the merchants and is perhaps a
small volume, we should discourage
this as much as possible. The saying
that "every little bit helps” is true,
and we should feel obligated to give
; it to our railroad.
The passenger trains in and out
i of Hartwell are being operated at a
, very heavy loss, which is common
■ knowledge amongst our people. If
I we are to continue having passenger
trains, it naturally follows that we
must have freight shipments suffi
i cient to pay the loss and to take care
of the operating expenses and repairs
I to engines, roadbed, etc.
We are told that under the new
• management, the railroad is trying
’ to make every purchase possible
within the limits of our county. They
need cross ties every day, this item
s1 alone running up to several hundred
, dollars each month, we are told. We
- hope Hart county people can furnish
the railroad the necessary ties, keep
ing this money at home.
In every other wav it is sa’4 th<-v
are buying what they can at home;
• 1 Hartwell and Hart county need the
i ! railroad and the several thousand
dollars it will spend here each month
I if it continues to operate. Let’s back
: our business enterprises that are al
ready in existence as well as trying
to •’■et new ones.
If we were to quit feeding one
baby and forget all about it just
because another one comes along
there’d be trouble in many homes.
‘ Let’s get back of the Hartwell Rail
; way Co., in their efforts to keep one
Valuable enterprise that we already
’ have. They will appreciate your help,
’ they need your help, and we need
’ to give it to them.
’ Please pardon this lengthy letter,
Mr. Editors, but we have been want
! ing to express our appreciation for
• some time to the citizens who “saved
the day,” so to speak, for Hartwell
■ and the county. i
Respectfully vours,
J. I. ALLMAN.

\
THE GENUINE SOUTH BEND OLIVER PLOWS are the best Chilled Plows made. They are simple and strong
in construction. For lightness of draft and ease of handling, they are unexcelled. They are made of the very best Plow
material. James Oliver, of .South Bend, Indiana, gave the world the first Chilled Turn Plow.
•
FOR FIFTY YEARS the South Bend Plows have been made and used. They are known the w-hole world over to
be the best plow made. The best evidence that the South Bend Oliver Plows are the best and most popular is the fact
that they are imitated more than any other plow.
YOU WILL FIND IMITATION OLIVER PLOWS and Repairs for sale in many places and some of them are poor
imitations. Genuine Oliver Plows and Repairs are made of the very best material and will stand rough use. Bogus
Oliver Plows and’Parts are made just to sell. The best thing that bogus dealers can say for their goods is “they will fit
Oliver Plows.” Beware of imitations. They cost you a little less but they will be worthless to you.
MAKERS OF BOGUS PLOW POINTS are interested in but one thing, and that is price. Their responsibility ends
when the point is sold to the customer. They have no interest in the good running or lasting of your plow or point. To
make a better price than Oliver, requires cheapening the article.
BUY THE GENUINE OLIVER PLOWS AND REPAIRS. BECAUSE THEY ARE THE BEST AND CHEAPEST IN
IN THE LONG RUN. THEY ARE SOLD LN HARTWELL BY A. N. ALFORD & COMPANY.
