White, Weddington Prop erty 48-2 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. Hon. John T. Duncan attended the inauguration of President Wilson and will, before return ing, visit eastern markets in the interest of N.J B. & J. T. Duncan, We had expected to be able to be able to publish the jury list and calendar for the March term of Douglas Superior Court this week but so far neither is obtain able. Court will convene on the 19th. The City Council and Douglas- ville Board of Trade had com mittees before the County Board of Education Tuesday in the interest of the new school dis trict, The Board deferred action till March 20th. Duncan & Selman’s Ford busi ness is on a boon. They now .have signed orders for all the cars they will be able to deliver by the middle of May, aud de sire to impress on those expect ing to buy this summer that it will be necessary to sign an order at once if they expect to get a CV 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.
