ber in an address told of the success
he had met with in destroying the
scale and gave the formula Of the
lime, sulphur and salt mixture. This
formula was sulphur I lbs, lime 20
lbs, salt 20 lbs, for each fifty gallons
Of water. Mr.. Lindley came home,
purchased 80 II. p. boiler with which
to prepare the mixture and proceeded
to begin anew the fight on the scale.
He gave the trees a thorough spray
ing and was reioiced to find that he
had at last found remedy for the
scale as we'll as a preventive. He now
leaves out the salt entirely, and has
not been troubled with the scale since.
He saws that he will abandon the
preparation of the mixture IN future,
since he can purchase the soluble
lime and sulphur solution already
prepared and better prepared with
less expense to be Dissolved in proper"
ton Of one of the solution to 10 ga1-
Ions OF water. With the victory over
the scale in 1906 Mr.. Lindley took
courage, but was greatly troubled
over the other pests. continuing but
without much success his war upon
the curcuio. the worm and rot In
the fail Of 1905 While attending the
annual session OF the National Pro-
logical association he heard an address

This formula was: Blue stone, four
ounces: lime six pounds; arsenic or
lead two pounds. mixed with fifty gal
Ions Of water. For June peaches this
mixture is sprayed when the trees are
about shedding their blooms and re-
peated in ten days OF two weeks For
late peaches a third spraying IS given
later in the season. As to the cost,
Mr.. Lindley says that the expense tor
the mixture and labor for his orchard
which this year amounts to 1000
trees covering 200 acres, is two ana
one-half cent! Ter tree.
He has found that he has practical
immunity now from the scale and
from the other troubles. and is again
increasing the number Of trees. With
out the curcuiio he gets a big crop,
and without the worm or rot he gets
a perfect peach that will keep a week

freeze up in all the Southern country
which killed the orange groves in
Florida, made the foliage in the woods
all over North Carolina look like a
fire had swept through it and blasted
every peach bud and blossom in the
orchards of Southern Pines. This
years loss was complete. Good crops
were made in 1905 and 1906, and bar
ring the ever increasing trouble and
expense OF ineffective efforts at COM
plete protection from the curculio,
worm,. rot and fungus diseases, the
property became money maker for
the company, but in 1897 the first
San Jose scale ever discovered in North
Carolina appeared on the trees of the
J. Van Lindley Nursery Company,
greatly damaging the crops that year
BY 1898 the scale had increased until
it extended through the whole or
chard. The place was anathametlzed
by neighbors as pest spreading the
fatal scale throughout the land. Every
known eXpedient to stamp it out was
tried regardless of expense, the final
outcome being the digging up and
burning of 10000 trees. This greatly
discouraged the company, and MIR
Lindley paid every shareholder 100
cents on the dollar for his stock, and
with sole ownership he kept pegglng
away the name of the enterprise not
being changed He carefully nursed
the trees remaining and secured fair
ly good crops, though prevented from
clearing much money on account OF
the additional expense of having to
fight the scale in addition to the other
pests. Kerosene emulsion was now
used with some benefit. but it dam
aged the trees, was expensive and 1t
began to look like the peach business
was a failure as paying proposition,
even with such indomitable a spirit as
Mr.. Lindley. On account of the San
Jose Scale added to the other pests,
which increased with the industry in
Moore county, as we'll as in Georgia,
hundreds of thousands of trees were
destroyed and the industry abandoned
in despair In some sections of
Georgia the peach growing business
was entirely given up, the monetary
loss being in the millions and in these
sections peach growing has not yet
been renewed. In 1904, Mr.. Lindley
as is his custom each year, attended
the annual session of the American
Nurserymens Association. -,ich he
is a member and having been
twice honored with the presidency.
The session was held at Milwaukee,.

\ BAD Plan.

We notice from q numb Der OF our eX-
changes throughout the cotton belt
of the State that farmers are selling
their cotton for fall delivery. We be-
lieve this to be bad plan and IS
liable to bring about disSa tisfaction
and unnleasantness If it should adj
vance above the price agreed upon
the farmer would be the loser and
should it go down the buyer would
lose. and oS it looks to US a very
unsatisfactory way to do buSin eSS. Let
the farmer wait until he gets his cot
ton ready for the market and then
sell in such away as not to glut the
market and in this way prices VIII
keep up better.
