UME, SALT AND SULPHUR.
for San Jos# Seal* Will Be Mad* ae
a Summer Treatment.
The need ol an effective remedy for
the San Jose scale for summer use :
has long been felt and although many
substances have been tided, nothing
has given anything like satisfaction.
Tot the pfcst two years I have been
experimenting with the lime, sulphur
and salt wash ae a winter treatment
tor scale and the results have been
Suite satisfactory ss set forth In bul¬
letins 4 and I of the Georgia State
Board of Entomology.
During the present season I am mak,
lag careful tests with this prepara¬
tion ss a summer treatment for scale
and so far the results have been very
encouraging. While the mature in*
Mots are not immediately killed by
applications of this wash the breed¬
ing is not only quickly checked, but
the young perish soon after they ls
au*. The presence of the wash pre¬
vents the young Insects from establish¬
ing themselves and they are either
killed by the caustic action of the
substance or perish from lack of food.
Just what takes place is not yet well
understood, but the fact remains that
•be young die and the parent Insects
soon follow their example, And that
la Just what Is desired. Instead of
Increasing at an incredible ratio, as
on untreated trees, the number r> f
scales dwindle In the presence of this
week until the trees become compara¬
tively clean.
It should not be understood, how¬
ever that this meats etad.cation, At
present K seems that no vvanb c;tn ot
so thoroughly applied as to cornple' ■ •
ly destroy this pest. The object it
control and not to eradicate.
Application of the Wash.
The principal difficulty in the ,
of applying summer washes .is
presence ot the foliage wh.ch Is j y
to be injured by preparations of suf¬
ficient strength to be effective againat
the Ban Jose scale. A thorough spray
in* of a tree I. therefore, not prac
tlcal and the application must be made
by hand., The trunk and larger limbs
can be thoroughly paSntod by means
of a brush or cloth mop and on young
trees, where the treatment Is most
needed, the application can be extended
to within a few Inc lie a of the Ups of
tfih# twigs. This may seem impracti¬
cal, but In the tests I found it not
difficult to quite thoroughly coat four
year old peach trees. In our commer.
dal peach orchards the trees are
headed low and the limbs are in easy
reach.
A spray pump can be used to apply
the wash to the trunk and the lower
portion of tihe limbs and In this man¬
ner a large orchard can be gone over.
However, the pump should he followed
by the brush in order to extend the
application higher up the limbs. Con¬
tact of the wash with the foliage
should be avoided, although the de¬
struction of some leaves will neces¬
sarily result.
The time to make the application Is
when living scales are found on the
trees. The San Jose scale will be
breeding quite rapidly during the
month of May, and an application dur.
lug this month would effectively check
Its progress. As a general statement,
I would say that the greatest benefit
from any one application might be
expected In August or soon after the
fruit crop is harvested. During the
fall months the accumulation of scale
U greatest, a* is also tho consequent
damage to the trees.
This treatment is especially reeom
mended for application to badly Infest
ed trees likely to die If left untreated
untitl winter washes can be applied,
and for family orchards.
Preparation of the Wash.
The same formula, but with greater
dilution, as used for winter work, is
been found satisfactory for summer
applications with the brush. This
formula may be stated as follows:
Lime (unslalred) ..... ......30 lbs.
Sulphur (ground) ... ......201bs.
Salt ................. ......15tb».
Water to make ...... .... 100 gals.
For winter work only 60 gallons of
water are used with this formula, but
In the summer tests It was found that
a much weaker solution gave satis¬
factory results.
Place eight or ten gallons of water
la an iron kettle over a fire and when
It reaches the boiling point add the
lime, which Immediately produce a
violent boiling. Stir in the sulphur
as rapidly as convenient and from time
to time add a small quantity of water
as needed to prevent boiling over or
burning. The sulphur gradually goes
Into solution aud the mixture, at first
thick and pasty, becomes thinner and
thinner, changing in color through
saver al shades of yellow. After at
least one hour’s constant boiling the
■alt should be added and the boiling
continued for another half -hour. Then
dilute with the required amount ol
water, preferably hot water. If a
suitable boiler is convenient the mix¬
ture may be more economically cooked
1 b barrels by the use of steam.
When used from buckets as a paint
It should be constantly stirred and
applied warm. For spraying, it should
fee strained through a flnq. wire net.
IMPORTANT STATEMENT!
Having purchased the entire business formerly owned by Mr, Hull Kerr
I take pleasure in extending to all my friends and the general public a most cordial
invitation to call at my store when in need of any sort of merchandise. [ shall not
only keep the stock up to its past high standard but intend to greatly increase it as
the trade justifies. My motto is “Quick Sales and Short Profits” and it is useless
to go elsewhere if good goods and low prices are what you are looking for.
Remember that I am going to close out my large line of Summer Dry Goods,
Shoes and Clothing at very close prices. Don’t forget the place.

Rescue Grass.
One of our friends has requested
that we republish an article that ap
2^5“ 1 w/ e S?e a Se« u ; e R «:
complying with this request.
Rescue Grass Is probably the finest
for winter grazing and the most pro
Hflc In southern latitudes. It re
quires a rich, loamy soil, and comes
up In September growing rapidly dur
ing even the coldest winter. It affords
a riel pasturage of the most succu
lent stems and leaves from Docernbet
1 to May 1, or it may be mowed for
hay two or three times during April
and May and then allowed to mature
a crop of seed, which In gathering
•>*»«• - '°‘" rr h
th, ground to resaed tfce land, < ao that
one sowing. If properly treated, will
suffice.
After mowing two or three times,
f rom bushels of seed may
b# ma(ie on m aore The seed may
be sown from June to February, but
to get the best results It should be
sown In June, when peas are gown tot
forage! -
There are some peculiarities about
tWa grass seed. It will not germinate
In summer. The colder the weathef
In wluter, the faster It grows, unless
the stems have commenced jointing,
when a freeze win M11 it down only
to come out again, however, greatly
i ncrelU5ed In thickness. When not
mowed, the grass grows slowly, but
w ben It ts mowed or grazed upon, the
growth is hastened. The plots upon
which the grass has been sown can
be broken up from June 1 to 15, fertll
and soWn In peas, or planted in
and fleW beans, By this meth
cd the grass will not only be im
proved, 'but splendid crops of peavine
hay, or of com and beans can be made.
The seed that are left on the ground
in May wilj Be dormant until the soo!
nights In September.
/The seed are quoted by seed men al
28 cents per pound, but about 109
pounds may be obtained from Dr. A.
M. Winn & Sou, of Lawre-aceville, Ga.,
at 16 cents per pound, or 12 cents a
pound. If as much as 10 pounds are
bought; also 160 pounus can be obtain¬
ed from Mr. J. T. Baxter, of Suwannee,
Ga., at the same price. The forego¬
ing information is furnished largely
by Mr. J. T. Baxter, who has success¬
