SPRAY FRUIT NOW
FOR JOSE SCALE
Can Spray For Scale And Leaf Curl
At Same Time, Says Ento¬
mology Board
Atlanta, Ga., February.—(Special.)—
What Georgia peach growers want to
know for practical purposes Is how to
control and exterminate the San Jose
scale. The origin and history of the
scale matter little; whether it. came
from Japan or China, cuts no figure
now. The important fact is it is here;
the important problem, how to get rid
of it, or at least keep it down.
The San Jose scale is controlled by
spraying with a lime-sulphur solution,
amt spraying time is here. During the
next thiry days all peach and other
fruit trees upon which the scale has
made its appearance, even in most
limited extent, should be given their
spring spray treatment, says State
Entomologist E. Lee Worsham.
A brief description of the scale will
help in recognizing it. The scale it¬
self is tlie covering of a tiny insect.
Cold weather kills many of them, but
they have been found crawling as late
as November and December and as
early as March. The young insect
sticks its beak into bark of the
tree and covers itself with a scale
formed from waxy secretions which
spring from all parts of its body.
How the Scales Look
This scaly covering is at first al¬
most white or pale yellow, but the
color slowly changes. First the scale,
both male and female, becomes round
and jet black except for the central
nipple. These round black scales eas¬
ily distinguish the San Jose scale from
nearly all other scale insects. As the
scales mature they lose this character¬
istic black color and when full grown
are of an ashy gray color, with a pale
reddish or yellow nipple in the center.
This description appiies to the female
scale. The male scale differs from
the female by being oblong-oval in¬
stead of round and is nearly twice as
long aa it is wide. The males are
smaller and often darker in color, and
the nipple will be at the end instead
of the oenter as in the female.
Fruit growers or those who have
only a few trees from which they want
to get perfect fruit, should use the
lime-sulphur spray now at any time
before the buds open. Where there
was a winter spraying, it may only be
necessary to repeat on bad trees, but
if there was no winter spraying, every
tree should be gone over thoroughly.
There are tw 0 lime-sulphur washes
used effectively in Georgia, one con
taining salt and the other without it.
Experiments of the State Board of
Entomology show the wash without
the salt is just as effective, and the
use of salt causes spraying machin¬
ery and boilers to rust.
What To Spray With
In making the solution without salt,
mix 16 pounds of ground sulphur into
a paste and add about 15 gallons of
boiling Wa.er in kettle or boiling tank,
if steam is used. Add 20 pounds of
fresh unsiaked lime and stir occasion¬
ally while the lime is slaking. Boil
about 45 minutes or longer if neces¬
sary to secure the proper color. After
boiling sufficiently the solution, when
stirred, should be a dirty greenish-yel¬
low color. The bright yellow color of
the suphur should not be apparent.
If it is, the mixture needs more boil¬
ing. After the concentrated mixture
is sufficiently boiled, dilute with warm
water to a total of 50 gallons and use
while warm, spraying the trees thor¬
oughly with a spray pump.
Sometimes a still later spraying is
needed when the fruit is half-matured,
in order to keep it perfect. This
spraying should be made with an
emulsion made of one-half- pound
of hard soap dissolved in one
gallon of boiling water, to which
add two gallons of kerosene oil
and agitate the mixture violently
for 10 mhiutfs. Dilute with 7 gallons
of water to make a 20 per cent solu¬
tion for this spraying. This is a val¬
uable contact insecticide for destroy¬
ing plant lice, San Jose scale and
other scale insects.
Peach Leaf Curl
Peach trees should be treated for
peach leaf curl in the early spring at
the same time the spraying treatment
is given for San Jose scale. 1 his
spraying should be made about one
month before the buds open, and a
little later on, any unsprayed spots
should be touched up with the spray¬
ing mixture.
Peach leaf curl comes in the spring,
but there are no outward signs of it
until it is too late to be controlled
for that season. The affected leaves
take on an abnormal color, become
curled and much thickened and finally
drop. The disease is due to a micro¬
scopic fungus that lives and feeds
upon the juices within the leaves.
While experiments have shown that
the Bordeaux mixture (lime 6 pounds,
copper sulphate 3 pounds, water 50
gallons) is the most satisfactory spray
for peach leaf curl from an econom¬
ical standpoint, it Is also true that
the lime-sulphur wash is equally ef¬
fective, so that spraying for San Jose
scale and peach leaf curl may be made
at the same time. In other words, if
you are spraying for San Jose scale,
you will get the peach leaf curl at the
same time; but if you ar e spraying
only for peach leaf curl, the Bordeaux
mixture is cheaper. The late fall or
winter spraying controls the curl as
well as the spring treatment.

Entomology, State Capitol, Atlanta,
Ga., for any further information.

WW——1^______ ,
PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO
CHARTER OF EMORY
, COLLEGE.
STATE OF GEORGIA—
Newton County.
To the Superior Court of said County:
The petition of THE TRUSTEES
Ot EMORY COLLEGE, a corporation,
shows:
1st. That it was incorporated by
an Act nf the Legislature o»f Georgia,
approved December 19, 1836, and that
since that time various amendments
have been made to its charter by said
Legislature and by this court, ami that
under said charter and said amend¬
ments, a College known as Emory Col¬
lege is now being maintained and con¬
ducted atf Oxford, Newton County,
Georgia, under the control of the
Annual Conferences of the -Methodist
Episcopal Church. South, tor North
Georgia, South Georgia and Florida.
2nd. That the General Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, at a session held in Oklahoma
City in May, 1914, created an Educa¬
tional Commission of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, and author¬
ized it to establish and found an in¬
stitution of higher learning, of the
grade of an University, to be under the
perpetual ownership and control of
the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, and farther authorized said
Commission in tlie establishment of
said University, to take over any in¬
stitution of learning already estab¬
lished, provided the ownership and
control thereof was perpetually vented
in said Methodist Episcopal Church,
South.
3rd. That said Commission, acting
under the authority given it by said
General Conference has decided to es¬
tablish an University in or near the
City of Atlanta, Georgia, and has ap¬
plied for a charter to the Superior
Court of DeKalb County, under the
name and style of EMORY UNIVER¬
SITY. Said name for said University
was selected by said Commission after
confering with the Trustees of Emory
College, and under authority of a reso¬
lution passed by said Trustees, provid¬
ing that in the event the University
should beeonnf incori>orated as
EMORY UNIVERSITY, the Trustees
of Emory College would apply to this
court for such an amendment to its
charter as would enable it to enter
into a union with said University,
and thus become the college of said
University, under its own corporate
identity and name, but with the same
or related Boards of Control.
4th. Petitioner further shows that
such an arrangement would not change
tin* primary object and purpose of the
original founders and incorporators of
Emory College, which was to estab¬
lish and maintain a college in Georgia
fo r the benefit of. and supported and
controlled by. the Methodist Episco¬
pal Church, South, but will enlarge
and extend the field of usefulness of
said College, so as to include therein
the entire Methodist Episcopal church,
said college continuing to be located
in the State of Georgia, and to serve
the same objects and purposes in said
State and in the State of Florida that
it has always served, hut being able
to he of even greater service in said
States by reason of the additional re¬
sources, pretige and influence'growing
out of its collections with and its in¬
clusion in said University as a part
thereof.
5tli. Petitioner further shows tout
this petition for an amendment to its
charter has been duly authorized by
the Trustees of Emory College, in meet
ing duly assembled, and has also been
submitted to. and approved by, the An¬
nual Conferences of North Georgia.
South Georgia and Florida, respective¬
ly. of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, and its presentation to this
court authorized and directed, all as
court shown. "
here to the
6th. WHEREFORE, petitioner, in or¬
der to carry out the plan of affiliation
and union with said University hereto¬
fore agreed upon by petitioner, prays
that the charter of the Trustees of
Emory College be amended as follows:

.
said institution be changed to EMORY

Trustees of Emory College, approved
December 23, 1886; provided, however,
that no Alumni Trustee so elected
shall have a right to act as a Trustee
or have any part in the deliberations
of said Board, until he shall have first
l>e»*n confirmed by the General Confer¬
ence of the Methodist Episcopal Church
i South, or by some agency of said Gen¬
eral Conference, authorized by it to
confirm or reject such Trustees.
The other twelve members of said
Board of Trustees shall l>e elected by
the Trustees of Einorv University from

Half Your Living
Without Money Cost
A right or wrong start in 1915 will
make or break most farmers in the
Cotton States. We are all facing a
crisis on cotton. Cotton credit is up¬
set. The supply merchant cannot ad¬
vance supplies on 1915 cotton. You
must do your best to produce on your
own acres the food and grain supplies
that have made up most of your store
debt in the past.
A good piece of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay half your living. It will
save you more money than you made
on the best five acres of cotton you
ever grew! But It must be a real
garden, and not the mere one plant¬
ing patch In the spring and fan.
