SPRAY ELBERTAS
NOW IS WARNING
Bulletin lust Issued Bv
Peach Insect Labor
atory
“Growers must spray Elbertas im
mediately to control new curculios
now emerging frmo the soil,” says
a bulletin from the U. S. peach in
sect laboratory at Fort Valley. The
bulletin follows:
“The new adult curculios have
been emerging from the soil for the
past several days, and all growers
are warned to spray Elbertas im
mediately with arsenate of lead and
self-boiled lime-sulphur to keep the
second brood of larvas of "worms”
from damagaing the crop. The ap
pearance of these new beetles was
expected, and there is no reason for
alarm on the part of the growers
if the arsenical is applied at once.
Georgia Belles need no further ar
senical spraying if they received one
during the week of May 30-June 4
as recommended, nor will Hileys if
they received it the week before
Georgia Belles.
“On account of the new beetle
now emerging growers are cautioned
to make the application to the El
bertas very thoroughly, making an
effort to cover each side of the fruit
with the spray. Use the self-boiled
lime-sulpur' (32-32-200) to the 4
pounds of arsenate of lead powder or
the 80-5-15 dust.
“As soon as possible after each va
riety is harvested pick up all fruit

‘1 wish Mr. Muskrat would shake himself and wipe his feet on t, re
door mat.”
Mrs. Muskrat went on a singing!
and a singing to her little baby musk
rat. She sang three verses about
Mr. Sprinkle-Blow, the Weatherman,
and how kind he was ’n’ everything.
How he locked up Jack Frost, and
Mr. Storm and Old Man Flood, and
Sizzly Dry Weather, and Thunder and
Lightning, and all the other Nuisance
Fairies, and did everything he could
to make it pleasant for everybody.
She didn’t sing about Nancy and
Nick because she didn’t know that
they had gone to help the Wea’ther
Fairy. But she was going to know
it soon.
Every verse she sang got a little
bit louder than the one before, be
cause of the nice comfortable house
that Mr. Muskrat had made for her
and the babies beside Ripple Creek,
there was! a roaring which almost
drowned the tones of her voice. It
sounded like Mr. Storm, somewhat,
but Mrs. Muskrat . knew that it
couldn’t be Mr. Storm when her hus
on the ground in the orchard and'
pull everything from the trees. De
stroy this fruit by burying with I
quicklime. Do not leave it lay out'
exposed. By picking all fruits from I
the trees soon after harvest all pos
sibility of brown rat cankers will be
eliminated. The gathering up of all
fallen fruit after harvest will elim
inate sources of brown rot infection
to the 1922 crop, and will also de
stroy many curculio larvae thereby
reducing the number of beetles to \
winter over.
“Growers are particularly warned]
about throwing culls out exposed.
Piles of exposed culls will soon make
great sources from which brown rot
is disseminated and where the dis
eases is carried over winter. Bury
deep with quicklime er thoroughly
burn all culls during the 1921 sea
son. Keep in mind that a pest free
crop is also desired in 1922.”
Shellm -i Will Have
Modern School Plant
SHELLMAN, June B.—The con
tract for the erection of the new
school building in Shellman has been
let to J. 0. Smith, of Buena Vista.
Mr. Smith states that work will be-
band had just been in and said the
sun was out bright and warm. She
went on singing, and this was the
last verse of her song:—
“Oh, hush, darlin’, bye, baby, dear,
We are happy and safe, never fear,
Spring is coming now’ soon,
By and by ’twill be June,
When the crickets and pollywogs sing
to the moon.
Jack Frost and his fairies who love
so to tease,
Have gone to the stars o’er the tops
of the trees,
Never a storm nor a flood nor a bit
of bad weather.
Can hurt us, so cozily huddled to
gether.”
Suddenly she held up one of her
feet. “Goodness gracious!” she ex
claimed in dismay. “I wish that Mr.
Muskrat would shake himself and
wipe his feet on the doormat before
he comes into the house. He’s got
this place dripping wet.”
The roaring outside grew louder.
' gin immediately, and he expeetes to
deliver the building ready for oc
i cupancy by September, in time for
I the opening of school.
An election was held last summer
aryl the bonds authbrized, but for
some reason they were not sold and
the building begun as early gis ex
pected.
The amount to be expended will
sbe $16,000. Portions of the pres
I ent building will be used with four
i rooms added. There will be no
change in the interior except the
stairway to the auditorium. Brick
veneering will be used on the outside
of the old building. A few of the
windows will be done away with in
order to come up to the lighting sys
tem prescribed for schools, all light
being let in from the back rooms.
The present heating system, large
stoves in the center of the rooms.
‘ will be discontinued and replaced
with steam radiators, sanitary drink-
I ing fountains will he installed. The
■ interior of the building will be well
painted. The scats will be thorough
ly overhauled. Large columns and
concrete steps will be placed on the
front of the building which will make
it very attractive.

SIOOO In Jewels
Stolen At Arabi
CORDELE, June B.—The home of
Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Royai, at Arabi,
was robbed several nights ago ami
diamonds and jewelry valued at
more than SI,OOO were stolen. One
night Mrs. Royal had occasion to
take out her jewelry from the place
where she usually kept it secreted.
When she and Mr. Royal went out
later to visit friends, she unthought
cdly left the case on a table in her
living room. Returning about bl
o’clock, she remembered leaving the
jewelry case out and made a search
for it. The case was gone, with one
diamond crescent, one pearl brooch,
harvest moon and leaf, one diamond
bracelet; wrist watch, two pendants,
a stick pin and a beauty pin. The
intrinsic value of the stolen proper
ty amounts to more than a thousand
dollars, but Mrs. Royal prizes the ar
ticles especially for the sentiment at
tached, they being gifts from her
husband and other relatives and
friends.
