appears in our orchards in
spring, causing the young and tender
foliage to thicken, curl and finally
drop. Although it may occasionally
be seen on the twigs, its attacks are
confined principally to the leaves.
In the early part of the summer all
the affected leaves are shed and noth*
lng more is seen of the disease until
the following spring. When an or
chard is but slightly -affected, a new
crop of leaves is quickly produced and
the damage is slight; but when, as fre-
quently happens, the greater part of
the foliage is involved, the tree is Im
poverished, the present crop of fruit
destroyed, and future crops affected.
• Prevention by Spraying.
Few fungus diseases affecting cul
tivated plants have proven more eas
ily or surely prevented than the Leaf
Curl of the peach. It has been demon,
strated beyond question that even
the worst affected orchards may, by
proper spraying at the right season,
be practically freed of the pest, and
with a single application of the treat
ment. Numerous fungicides have
been used and recommended, but of
them all the safest and most effective
has proven to be the Bordeaux mix
ture. This should be applied in late
winter or early spuing. After Lhe buds
have become swollen the germs of the
fungus begin to penetrate the tissues
and the treatment is therefore less
effective, so that it is necessary to j
begin spraying in time to finish at
least two weeks before the trees are
likely to bloom. A little later when
the young leaves have begun to push
out and the evidences of the disease
become apparent, it is altogether too
late, and a spraying, so far as the
leaf curl is concerned, would be a
waste of labor and material.
It Is very Important in spraying for
this disease that every part of the
tree he reached by the Bordeaux or
othw mixture used, for if a limb or a
schools and also from many farmers
desiring a work on general agricul
ture in the south. Until recently we
have had nothing of that
kind prepared by any of
our own people, who are best ao-
quainted with the needs of the farm
ers of, Georgia and neighboring South
ern States. This department sug
gested to Professor J. B. Hunnicutt,
editor of The Southern Cultivator,
the preparation of a work of this bind,
and invited the co-operation of Profes^
sor G. R. Glenn at that time School
Commissioner of the State of Georgia.
Such a work by Professor Hunnicutt
has just been issued from the press
of the Foote & Davies Publishing Co.,
of Atlanta, and is, therefore, a genu
ine home production, well adapted to
the farmer boys and girls of the South.
Every farmer should take pride in
ils profession; for without such a
sentiment he cannot do his best work.
By pursuing proper methods he can
instill the same sentiment into his
children, so that they will find both
pleasure and profit In learning how
to make the soil grow good crops.
If farming is ever to reach the
place which it should occupy, it will
be where the children have been
taught its usefulness and beauty in
the school room.
The work of Professor Hunnicutt is
so simple that even a teacher, who is
entirely Ignorant of the theory and
practice of farming, can use it with
profit to his pupils and himself.
Many bdoks have been written on
agriculture, but they are all more or
less treatises on agricultural chemistry.
This work avoids this channel, but at
the same time adheres strictly to sci
entific truth, while expressing it in
plain language. ~
It teaches the history of agriculture,
treats of the composition and kinds of
soil, their preservation and Improve
ment; how plants grow, the proper
use of manures and fertilizers; the se

THE COMMONER,
(Mr. Bryan’s Paper.)
The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100,000 copies, a record
probably never equaled in the history of
American periodical literature. The
unparalleled growth of this paper de
monstrates that there is room in the
newspaper fields for a national paper de
voted to the discussion of political,
economic, and social problems. To the
columns of the Commoner Mr. Bryan
contributes his best efforts ;and his views
of political events as they arise from
time to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The Commoner’s regular Bubcription
price is $1.00 per year. We have arrang
ed with Mr. Bryan whereby we can fur
nish his paper and Home Journal to
gether for on& year for $1.90. The reg
ular subscription price of the two pa
pers when subcribed for separately is
$2.50.

Bordeaux is composed of k mix
ture,. of the diluted 1 solutions of lima
and bluestone and may be prepared
from the following formula:
5 pounds fresh, unslalied lime.
5 pounds bluestone (sulphate of cop-
per). J - .
50 gallons of water.
As much as six pounds of bluestone
and an equal quantity of lime may ba
employed with safety and perhaps
advantageously in some cases. How
ever, when it is desired to Use Bor
deaux for brown rot or other diseases
after the foliage is out, the quantity
of bluestone should be reduced to 3
pounds and that of lime increased to I A Chicago dispatch says that
nine pounds, because of the injurious Miss Martha Wilson, a rich, cul-
effect that strong Bordeaux, has upon tured and charming young woman

then a bucket of the other, or better he permitted her to have her way
still, pouring then in simultaneously.
After thoroughly stirring the mixture
and allowing it to stand for a few mo
ments it is ready to be strained into
the spray pump tank.
When thus prepared, Bordeaux is
at its best, consisting of a fine floe-
ulent, pale blue precipitate suspended
in the water. If either or both of the
Ingredients should be in concentrated
solution when the mixing is dene the
resulting Bordeaux in coarser grain
ed, settles much more quickly and is
less effective as a spray. Even the
best will begin to settle quickly on
standing, and it is essential -that the
spray pump be supplied with an agi-'
tator that will keep it stored in the
act of pumping.
The bluestone may be gotten* into
solution more quickly and readily by
suspending It in the corner"of a fer
tilizer sack ju*st below the surface of
the water, or by the use of a small
quantity of hot water.
When a considerable amount of
spraying is to be done, it will be
found convenient to prepare stock so-

Wakeful Children.
For a long time the two year
old child of Mr. P. L. McPbersen,
59 N. Tenth St., Harrisburg, Pa.,
would sleep but two or three hours
in the early part of the night,
which made it very hard for her
parents. Her mother concluded
that the child had stomach troub

Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver
Tablets, which quieted her stom
ach and she slept the whole, night.
Two bottles of these Tablets have
effected a permanent cure and she
is now well and strong. For sale
