that are blighting from a small
insect that is under the leaves,
causing them to cup up like they
we're burned. l also have a
young peach tree that has fine
fruit, but before ripeniug the
fruit begins to rot and fall off.
Please give me a remedy in your
next issue for each of these
evils.

Doubtless the insect referred
to is the aphis or leaf louise.
Tobacco tea sprayed on the At.
fectcd parts should dcstroy the

Brown rot, | presume. is the
trouble with the peach. Posi-.
bly, the tree stands on very rich
soil where the wood growth is
over vigorous. Plenty OF sun
shine and 4 free circulation OF
ar throughout the entire head

the trouble. Open the be- -

much favorable comment on account of

that ample space had been provided for
even the unusual growth which the
business had been experiencing.

a fair idea of the wide popularity of
