Is This a Cure for Blight?

Rev. John T. Morrison, in the Hamp-
ton (Ga.) Guardian, says: "My LeConte
pear trees had commenced to blight. I
took one peck OF lime and six pounds of
sulphur, mixed them well and then added
water. After Stacking, l added barrel
OF water, and sprayed my trees, so that
the leaves and fruit were covered with
the lime and sulphur. Every time it
rained l could smell the sulphur; every
close, cloudy day I could perceive it.
Two applications in May, which con-
sumed half bushel of lime and twelve
pounds OF sulphur, stopped the ravages
on twenty trees, and to-day 1 am ship
ping fruit of the best quality. 1 never
saw trees do better, and though blight

grades go at rs cents to 1925.
We are constantly asked for our opin-
ion as to shipping all we can say in re-
ply is to point out the situation as it
really is, and give results of actual sales.

we believe it will bring satisfactory re-
suits

Se!f-Fertllizing Pears.

According to Prof. Waite of the A9ri-
cultural department. the varieties of
pears, which are self fertilizing are Doy-
enne, LeConte, Kieffer, Buffum, Flemish,
Beauty, Seckel and Tyson; the following
are not, and must be near some staminate
variety to be fruitful: BARTLETT, Anjou,
Clapp's Favorite. Clairgeau. Sheldon,
Mt. Vernon, Lawrence, Howell, Louise
Bonnie. Souvenir du Congress, Winter
NeIis, Bose, Easter and Superfne.
Not more than three rows of, say one
variety, should be planted together, and
they should be separated from the next
three rows of the same variety by atleast
one row ofanOther variety. Probably it
would be still better to plant two rows of
one kind and one row of another kind,
alternately.
In majority of cases it was found that
the fruit produced by self fertilization
was quite different from that produced
by Decentralization. Occasional epeci-
mems OF self fortified Bartletts were in
variably smoother and Simmer, the
cross fertilized ores rOugher and broader.
This difference was so constant as to be
striking.
A still greater difference was shown in
the seeds. Self fortified fruits had but
few seeds. and these seldom perfect.
The cross fertilized specimens showed the
regular number of perfect seeds. Buffum,
self fertilized, almost without exception
had imperfect seeds. The self fertilized
fruits are not the normal ones, and
would not pass as typical specimens.
Fruit growing in ordinary mixed Or
chards, under ordinary conditions, show
by their shape, ETC., that they are the re-
suit of cross fertilization. With apples
theresults wereIeSs decided. Pol en- taken
from other trees of the same variety usu-
ally acts in the same way as that taken
from the same tree. The fferent trees
all came from the same seed, and are
really one and the same so far as the
character OF flowers and pollen is con-
cerned.
Many plants procure f'rtiliz .tion by
the aid OF the wind. Not so the pear.
This depends altogether on insects tor
the transfer OF the pollen. A great many
varieties of insects visit apple and pear
blossoms-fies, beetles, bees, etc. The
honey bee is the most regular and per-
sis!ent visitor. and on account GIFTS great
activity, the most important. During
rains, strong winds, or in cold weather
these insects do notcome out, and flowers
may fail to get properly fortified.

looked as if it would destroy the fruit
and trees, held it in check. Less of the
mixture would do. The lime might be
left out and cheap -four substituted, for
l think the virtue of the remedy is in the

The Family Table in Florida.
From The IrrigrtOr:

From The Irrigrtor:
The suggestive article in the Oc-
tober number of THE IRRIGAToR
entitled, "Irrigation and the Fam
lily Table," is a vivid reminder
to many visitors and travellers in
this State of their own past eX-
periences. How we'll I remem-
Der the 'family table" at which
l sat daily for weeks in the
winter of 1883, and for several
winters thereafter. | hasten to
say it was a good table, too, for
the place and time, and | had no
complaint to make. But the chief
thing to be noted was the almost
total absence of local products Of
the soil. Everything except the
sweet potatoes came from the
North. A further exception came to-
ward spring in the shape of cab
bages, turnips, beets and white
potatoes, and sometimes onions.
These, to be sure, were very good
of their kind, but we were told they
would be in season for a short
time only, and as the heat of sum-
mer came on, and fresh vegetables
became even more desirable,
scarcely anything could be raised
or bought.
Perhaps there has been little
gain during the last ten years.
People who know how, who have
the right kind of land, and sufficient
industry and perseverance, can pro-
duce several kinds of vegetables
for the table, and in a succession
that gives something a good por-
ton of the year. Still, for the
most part, this success costs more
than it is worth, estimated COM
paratively by the value Of equal
products in the Northern markets.
And even this success, such as it
is, is obtained by very few. The
immense ma ority of people who
live in Florida, and who have suf-
fcient land for gardens, do not cul-
tivate them to anything the same
extent that people in similar con-
ditions do elsewhere. I think
there are good reasons why they
do not.
The writer of the article referred
to above mentions some of these
reasons. 1.-THE great need" he
says "is for water and plenty of -
Another need is a 'shelter afford
ing a half shade" from the scorch
ing heat of midsummer. A third
difficulty is the prevalence of "vora-
cious insect pests. " A fourth Difficult
tylies in the general poverty of the
soil and the absence of fertilizers.
