CURRENT TOPICS ON AGRICULTURE
Edited by E. E. HALL, County Agt.
PRUNING AND SPRAYING
s This is the time of year that all
fruit trees should be pruned and
sprayed If this has not already been
attended to.
In pruning all cute larger than a
silver dollar should be painted with
raw linseed eil and white paint.
Smaller cuts need net Le painted.
Where blight is in the trees care
should be taken not te spread it du
ring pruning. One of the best ways
te avoid blight spreading is to prune
out all limbs and branches about six
inehea below the bMghted area, and
to wash these cuts with a solution oti
Corosive Sublimate 1 to 1000. Also
to wash pruning tools in this solution
before beginning on other trees.
Where trees have been blighted
and then pruned, it is advisable to
burn all of these blighted limbs.
When the pruning of the orchard is
complete the next needed thing in
most orchards is spraying for the
San Jose Scalej. There are several
;rprays that are used for this, but pos-
I sibly one of the best is Lime-Sulphur
Spray. IT the trees are badly in
fected with scale it will be secessary
to spray again in aboui: two or three
weeks with the same material. This
spray can be made or purchased from
most Drug stores or from the Agri
cultural College.
To make this spray take:
Sulphur, 8 lbs, Lime, fresh 4 lbs;
Water 5 gallons. Slhke the lime,
mix in the sulphur witn it, add water

Mr. Moser will spidk here under
the auspices of the Georgia Cotton
Growers’ Co-operative Association;
but he will discuss n >t so much co
operative marketing as the “Farm
Program for 1925,” recently adopted
at a notable session of farmers, mer
chants, bankers and educators at
Athins.
This program calls for diversifica
ti®n of crops to the extent of making
each farm seHJ-sustaining, for ade
quate: financing of the farmer at a
reasonable rate of interest and on
fair terms, and for co-operative mar
keting of products to give the farmer
a fair share of the consumer’s dollar.
Moser is secretary of the A
merican Cotton Grower's Exchange,
the parent body, of all the cotton co
operatives in the country. He was
reared on a farm in Texas, and serv
ed many years as County Agent.
In the work of organising aM states
co-operatives, he has become familiar
with farmers’ troubles and‘needs in
nil the Southern State and has seen
some of these troubles satisfactorily
worked out. What he has to say will'
be worth traveling mile3 t® hoar.

will evaporate, this should be replat
ed so as to the 5 gallons as at
the beginning.
This will make enegn spray for 20
five-year old peach trees, dormant
spray or about 40 gallons.

prepared in many casos.

ral College or from the County Agt.
