To Prevent Worms
In Fruit-
-Spray
T. H. McHATTON, Prof. Of Hort.,
Qa. State College Of Agriculture
If one expects to raise apples that
have nr| worms In them, self-boiled
lime-sulphur and arsenate of lead must
be applied to the trees immediately
after the flowers fall away from the
plants and before the little apple has
turned down on its stalk.
Worms in peaches are controlled
by application of self-boiled lime-sul
phur and arsenate of lead to the trees
when the shucks are falling from the
little peaches. Both on apples and
peaches, this spray should be repeated
about three weeks after the first appli
cation.
To make-self-boiled lime-sulphur
take 8 pounds of .quick lime, put it in
the bottom of a barrel and start to
slacking with boiling water, then add
8 pounds of flowers of sulphur that
has previously ^een made Into a paste
with water and slacking lime. Add
enough hot water to ju&t cover the
lime and sulphur in the bottom of
the barrel. Cover the top of the bar
rel and allow it to cook with the heat
of the slacking lime for five minutes.
Then add enough water to make 50 gal
Ions. For apples, to each 50 gallons
of this material add 2 pounds arse
nate of lead paste’, or i pound arse
nate of lead powder. For peaches,
add to each 50 gallons of this material
1 Va pounds arsenate of lead paste,
or % pounds arsenate of lead powder
Thoroughly stir the mixture, and put
reports a splendid Sunday school throu f h a strainer into the spray bar-
* rel. Be sure to work all the uncooked
there.

sire to impress on those expect

will be necessary to sign an order
at once if they expect to get a

sulphur through the strainer. Remove
the lumps of lime and dirt that might
clog the pump.
Varieties Of Velvet Beans
JOHN R. FAIN, Prof. Of Agronomy,
Ga. State College Of Agriculture
The variety of velvet beans to plant
depends upon the length of the grow
ing season. It should utilize all of the
growing season to make the largest
yield; hence in southern Georgia It
Is better to have a late variety.
In more northern parts of Georgia,
however, beans with shorter growing
season, or shorter period between ger-
■Anatlon and maturity, should be se
lected.
There are three general groups of
velvet beans, the early, medium early
and late. The late and medium are
adapted to south Georgia, medium to
middle Georgia and early to north
Georgia.
The trade hears of Ninety Day and
One Hundred Day Velvet beans. As
a matter of fact, there are none such.
No velvet bean matures In ninety days
and we have discovered none that ma
tures In one hundred days. In fact,
it may be reckoned that early velvet
beans will not mature under 129 days
and the medium not under 160 days.
No one, therefore, should be misguided
by these misleading names In deter
mining when to plant to obtain ma-
_ turity before the growing season
| Closes.
