WINTER KILLING OF
FRUIT AND NUT TREES.
I have had a number of letters re
cently from county agents, orchard
ists, and others, in which they told me
about many cases of very peculiar be
havior of fruit and nut trees, mostly
peaches and pecans. Trees seemingly
lr perfect health are slow in making
the usual spring and summer growths,
or trees which started to produce fol
iage with the season suddenly have
wilted and died. I have been to a num
ber of pecan and peach orchards in
Dawson, Tifton, Blackshear, Thomas
ville and Cairo, and have invtestigated"
this trouble, finding it to be winter
killing. It seems that the warm weath
er during December and January put
the trees in a partially growing condi
tion. Then the severe cold of Febru
ary killed the cells of the cambium
layer. The part of the tree most se-
verely damaged- is that from the sur
face of the soil upwards 8 or 10 inches
along the trunk. Very often on mak
ing an examination of a tree at this
time of the year, it will be noticed that
around the crown or lower part of the
trunk, the cells just beneath the bark
have not only been killed, but have
already become discolored, while far
ther up the tree, that is, on the twigs
and branches, the bark will still seem
to be in perfect health. This is a good
way to diagnose “winter kill.’’
My observations show that most of
the trees killed during the past year
are less .than five years old. In some
places the amount of damage has been
very large and severe. I found one or-
Qhard of one-year old peach trees, in
which about 90 per the trees
have been killed; a pecan orchard of
two and three year old trees in which
30 to 40 per cent of the trees have
been killed.
There is nothing that can be done
at the present time for the bringing
back to life the dead trees or to les
sen the effect of the injury. However,
it is a good plan to remove the dead
trees, as they may become affected
with insects and diseases, thereby act
ing as harboring places for these
pests.
. Owing to the unusual amount of
“winter kill” and the peculiar nature
of this trouble, I thought it a good
plan to write you so that you would b3
in a position to advise the growers as
t n the troubles they are probably hav
ing with the “winter kill.” Later on I
hope to get out a short article on this
subject, with recommendations for pre
venting future damage.

LET NOTHING SPOIL.
Keep perishables cool, clean, and
covered.
The moment meat, fish, milk, and
eggs are allowed to get warm they be
gin to spoil.
Bacteria and germs multiply rapidly
in slightly warm food, and quickly
make it dangerous or unfit to eat.
Keep perishable foods in cooiest,
cleanest-place you can provide, pre
ferably ig_a good refrigerator or ice
house, but, at any rate, in covered ves
sels suspended in the well, or in the
coolest, clean place in your home or
cellar.
Do not keep perishable foods in a
hot kitchen or pantry or in a sunny
place a moment longer than is neces
sary.
Dry cold is a better preservation
than damp cold.
Keep Food Covered and Clean,
The dust particles in the air carry
molds and germs.
Meat, fish, and milk are ideal breed
ing grounds for such germs. Keep your
food covered so that these bacteria and
germs will have as Mttle chance as pos
sible to get on your food.
House flies —better called “typhoid
flies” —are among the dirtiest things
that enter our homes. They fly from
sewers, privies, and manure heaps,
| carrying filth on their feet, which they
deposit on any food on which they,
alight. Frequently germs of typhoid
fever are carried by flies in the filth
on their bodies, and in their excre
ment (flyspecks).
Ordinary cleanliness demands (hat
flies be kept out of our homes and
away from our food.
Health protection makes it essen
tial to banish flies. Keep-all food cov
ered, or at least screened from these

: Destroy flies by every possible means.
Guard Food Against Vermin.
Rats and mice destroy- millions of

j erty every year in homes or farms,
| and in business establishments. Many

plague. Trap and kill them. Look upon
every mouse as an enemy to your
property.
Eradicate roaches and house ants.
Keep weevils out of cereals.
Keep your food where such pests
| can not reach It.
__ Keep household pets away from

Store Vegetables and Fruit Properly.
Don’t let fresh vegetables or fruit
w ilt or lose their flavor or begin to rot
because they are handled carelessly.
Keep perishable vegetables in cool,
dry, well-aired, and for most vegeta
bles, dark rather than light places.
Learn how to store potatoes, cab
bage, root crops, fruits, and other
foods so that they will keep properly
for later use.
Don’t think that any place in the
cellar or pantry is good enough to
store food.
Heat, dampness, poor ventilation,
bruising, or breaking will rapidly make
many vegetables rot, ferment, or spoil.
Warmth and light make vegetables
sprout and this lowers their quality.
Can or Preserve Surplus Vegetables
and Fruits.
When there is a surplus of fruits or
vegetables that will spoil if kept, cook
or stew them and keep them cold and
covered for use in a day or two.
Can or preserve all surplus food
from gardens for winter use. In a
morning’s work with ordinary home
utensils, you can put up many cans of
vegetables and fruit for winter use.
If you have no garden, watch the mar
kets. When any fruit or vegetable that
can be canned becomes plentiful and
cheap, buy a quantity and can it 'for
home use next winter.

SAVE YOUR BOTTLES.
Shortage of Cans and Jars Threaten
ed—-Preserve Jams, Jellies, and
Fruit Juices in Bottles.
The home canning specialists of the
United States Department of Agricul
ture urge every housekeeper to save
bottles —especially wide-necked ones—
for putting up fruits, preserves, jellies,
jams, and fruit juices. Saving of bot
tles is highly important, they say, as
there threatens to be a serious short
age of regular jars aud preserving
cans this season.
The fruit products named, If sealed
with corks and paraffin, can be kept
perfectly in these makeshift contain
ers. Jellies, jams, and preserves can
be kept even in ordinary drinking
glasses, by the use of paper and para
ffin. Fruit juices should be packed in
ordinary small necked bottles.
Vegetables, soups, and meats, on the
other hand, to keep must be sealed by
the usual fruit-jar or tin-can packing
methods. Reserve regular containers
for foods that can not be packed in
bottles.
A serious shortage of preserving jars
and cans is threatened.
Glass bottles—especially wide-necked
ones—are useful for putting up fruits,
jellies, and preserves.
Put up fruit juices in ordinary bot
tles.
Reserve regular preserving jars and
cans for canning vegetables, soups,
and meats.—United States Department
of Agriculture.
The specialists are also urging all
members of canning clubs and others
rot only to can products, but to dry
and evaporate all such products as ap
ples, pumpkin, and squash. They ad
vise strongly that if containers are
scarce locally, those in stock should
be used to preserve perishable pro
ducts which have the highest nutritive
value. Nothing should be packed in
jars or cans which can be conserved
effectively in other ways.
Candy containers or other glass jars
with screw tops or glass stoppers, and
ir: fact any receptacle of glass, crock
ery, or porcelain, can be sealed with
ork or paper and paraffin.
Large tin canisters or tin cans with
removable covers, provided the body
cf the container is air and water tight,
will be found- useful in canning cer
tain fruff"products. Such containers
can be sterilized and their covers
I hermetically sealed in place with
solder or wax.—Weekly News Letter.
