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.

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 THE BARTOW TRIBUNE-THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS, MAY 24, 1917 I carriers of deadly disease and filth. : Destroy flies by every possible means. Guard Food Against Vermin. Rats and mice destroy- millions of i dollars’ worth of food and other prop j erty every year in homes or farms, | and in business establishments.

Keep your food where such pests | can not reach It. __ Keep household pets away from jTood. 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. Bea Food Conservator.

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. i i|>| .. tvu sOusd F-xK'ff " i "S' E<M ML mmSm •' *• £ iSSSf- - : y j Men who cherish stead nerves and clear eyes f' W N®, drink j 7 •*/*/ ChsroCala W “In a. bottle—Through a straw DEFVSH'ng. ,/v % £*/ £AD A/T£# EFFECT.. n/ Health is more precious than all the gold of Croesus.
