Orchardists Urged
To Fight Curculio
ATHENS, Ga—Picking up fallen
peaches at least once a week during
April and May and destroying them
will aid in controlling the curculio,
one of the most harmful insect pests
attacking peaches, George H. Fircr,
horticulturist of the Georgia Agri
cultural Extension Service, declared
today.
“Picking up and destroying the
fallen peaches will not take the
place of a spray program, but will
help to control the curculio and as
sure better quality peaches,” Firor
said.

Examine your town with a critical eye. How do you

What do they see? Are they greeted by junk heaps,
dilapidated barns, tumbled down shacks ? Do they see
untidy, littered squares ? dirty, fly-specked store win

KANSAS WOMEN
Following the signing of the treaty
with the Delaware and Shawnee
Indians in 1854, settlers poured into
Kansas. Women and children ac
companied the men on steamboats,
on horseback, in prairie schooners
and wagons. They went to make it
a home territory and courageously
stayed to make permanent homes,
despite the bloody years of border
warfare over the slavery issue. They
were strong, purposeful women who
foresaw the opportunity for prosper
ity and good homes for future gen
erations. Kansas has a monument
to them on the capital grounds at
Topeka. Their grandsons battle for
an unspoiled future for all the Nation

GARDEN SUGGESTIONS
With most farm families garden
ing is a habit. It may be too much
of a habit with some who have got
ten into a “rut" and do not study
and plan, and keep abreast of new
er methods of producing the most
valuable crop on the farm be
home vegetable supply. Progressive
planning should reduce costs and in
crease quality and variety. It is not
always wise to discard old stand
ard varieties for the new or un
tried, but new ones appear from
time to time that are worthy of a
trial and some of these will soon
take the place of older varieties.
Many of these promising new
comers are listed in the All-Ameri
can Awards of the past few sea
sons.
