have been mistaken,
But no, there it was again! “I tell
you I am the best book to read,” said
a voice. Little Boy looked at the books
in the case that reached around the
gides of the room, Yes, it was the

“I have a much handsomer binding

: He had fallen in love with her in her

stronger and finer as time went on.
“Having lost her, she would become

grows old. And as time passed, in

“I have faects, real true things from
which people can gain knowledge when
they read. I am the most popular
book here, I am sure you will all
agree.”
“Goodness, hear it talk,” sald a shrill
voice and another book leaned out so
far it tumbled on the floor,
~ “Ha, ha,” laughed the other book,
%“you are where you belong, on the
floor. You are full of wise sayings,
but so old no one ever looks at them
these days. Ivery one knows them.”
Out from the case leaned a red book.
“You seem to forget that people wish
to be amused,” it said, “and when
they open my cover they begin to
laugh. lam full of funny saylngs and
jokes, so you all can stop your quar
reling, for I am the most popular book
here.”
Tittle Boy stood listening. He was
afraid the books would all tumble out,
they were so excited, when out from
a book jumped a little girl and, bow
ing to all the books, she sald, “I am
ashamed of you! The idea of quar
reling about which is the most pop
uiar!”
~ “Don’t you know that there are all
sorts of people in the werld and that
they all like different books? If they
didn’t, there would be only one book
and then where would you be, for you
must know that grown-ups and chil
dren all love to read about me.”
“It ig Alice,” said the clock In a
‘soft voice to Little Boy.
Little Boy had never had a play
| mate; he began to smile. “Alice,” he
sald, “do coms and play with me. Per
haps we can catch the butterfly.”
Alice turned around. *“Oh, I can't”
she replied. “Don’t you know who I
am? I have to be in the story or
there wouldn’t be any. lam ‘Alice In
Wonderland.’ Did you never hear the
story?”’
“No; tell it to me,” said Little Boy.
“1 will have to go back Into the
book,” suid Alice, “but if every one
will be quiet I will tell the story.”
And all the books in the big case,
knowing Alice told the truth, slid back
into their places. The clock ticked
very softly while she told Little Boy
her wonderful experiences.
And every night after that at the
magic hour Little Boy left his frame
on the wall to listen to the story of
“Alice in Wonderland,” for, just like
all folks, big or little, he is never tired
of hearing it. i

Peach Growers
Advised to Move
| Decayed Fruit
l After the picking crews go
through an orchard a number of
peaches are to be found under the
trees where they had fallen dur
ing haryest operations. In most
| cases the grower pays no atten
[tion to this fruit, and allows it
|to remain indefinately in the
lorchard where it decays and
imummifies. This decayed fruit
is unquestionably the cause of
much of the brown rot on the
fruit of succeeding peach crops,
and it is very possible that it is
also responsible for a quantity of
of the blcssom blight that causes
¢o many of the blooms to dry up
in the spring without setting
fruit.
It is indeed a dangerous and
unsanitary orchard practice to
allow peaches to decay and mum
mify in the orchards where they
have fallen during harvest. Sour
ces of brown rot infection are
theryby created for years to
come. Experiments have proyen
that brown rot mummies may be
aetive in giving off spores for
eight consecutive seasons. Peach
growers are urged to go through
the orchard after eyery few
pickings and to have all f{fallen
peaches picked up and destroyed
by burying with quicklime at
least two feet below the soil sur
face. After the harvest of each
variety is completed the {trees
should be carefully gone over,
and stripped of all fruits which
the pickers have missed, in order
to prevent the formation of
brown rot cankers on the twigs.
which will result when peaches
are allowed to rot on the trees.
The Uneeda is especially sus
ceptible to blossom blight, and
special care should be exercised
in Uneeda orchards and orchards
of other early varieties to rid
them of all fruits left on the
ground each day after the pick
ing has been finished. The
prompt and proper disposition of
refuse fruit from the peach or
chards in Georgia is a matter
of vital importance 1n safe guard
ing the industry’s future, and
peach growers should unite in
their efforts to enforce the pro
per orchard sanitation.
