March Notes.

The Florida Agriculturist says: Exam
inc the trunks of the trees at and near
the surface of the ground, and with a
sharp knife cut out the borer, which re-
sembles the ordinary white grub only 1t
is smaller. If you scrape all the dirt
from the trunk of the tree it is quite
easy to trace the channel he has made
for himself by the dark color of the bark.
1t is easier to inject hot water with
syringe but not quite so sure, as there
may be several branches to the channel
and as many borers. We always take
pains to cut him out with a knife and
then cut the edges of the channel smooth
so as to make good heal Replace with
clean sand free from litter and bank it up
about eight inches. This keeps the larvae
well up on the trunk and he may not be
able to penetrate the heavy bark. 1t is
desirable that the bark be kept smooth so
no lodging place will be found by the fly.
If you are a horny handed son of toll you
can grasp your young trees in your hand
and give a good rub and twist and thus
secure smoothness. The larger ones need
to be scraped smooth.
Examine your trees also for signs of
any kind of scale and spray them with
the following solution:
Kerosene Emulsion-Dissolve one-half
pound whale oil soap in one-half gallon
of boiling water and add while hot one
gallon of kerosene churn well until it be-
comes like thick cream. Add twenty gall
Ions of water before using as a spray
If the tree is very badly off you had bet
ter dig il out and burn it.
If some of your trees that are one or
two years old look sick, examine some of
the smaller roots and if they have a
knotted appearance or rather have tuber-
Giles distributed along their length, dose
them with wood ashes-a peck to a tree
removing some of the surface soil In the
absence of wood ashes a one-half pound
of muriate of potash will answer. This
root knot may be largely avoided by gem
erous fertilizlng and clean culture.

both the negro and his wife, both Of whom
had been threatened by white men who
disliked the union.
A door of their abin was broken in and
both the negro and his wife were shot
down, but not before Chalmers had put up

There were evidences that Matthews

house to the place where 1t was
found. A gun lay beside the body,
evidently put there to give the i'm
preston that the dead man had murdered
the negro and his wife.
Deputy United States marshals are inves-
tigating the killing and 1t is believed that
the murderers will be brought to Justice.
