FUNGUS DISEASES or PEACH
Brown Rot Among Most Destructive
of Fungi on Trees-PreyaiIs
During Warm Weather.
CBy r, G. wEArHERsToNEo

(By r. G. WEATHERSTONE.l
Tie brown rot fungus is among the
V.Sst destructive of the fungi on the
peach. yielding place only at times to
leaf-curl. Unlike leaf-curl the brown
rot prevails during warm, showery
weather. and with such q weather
of the year. In April. If the mummy
peaches are permitted to remain on
the trees from the preceding year,
the fungus may affect the twigs
through the blossoms and thus cause
serious twig blight 1t is matter of
common remark that the branches
upon which rotted pe.ches are found
often perish FROM effect OF the rot
fungus. The survival OF the fungus in
these mummy fruits and the pro
duction of ascospores from them are
well proven. No one variety seems
more susceptible to rot than others.
although some sorss are more liable
to ripen during rainy weather and
then rot worse. The control of rot
demands: First, careful removal and
destruction of all mummy rotted
peaches in which the fungus survives;
second thorough spraying OF The
trees before poisoning az f.. leaf
curl: third, subsequent spray treat
ment with self-boiled Hmesulfur may
be profitable under certai1l conditions.
The leaf-curl fungus is at times one
of the serious pests of the peach
grower. However destructive leaf
curl does not occur every year The
curl fungus survives in the buds from
year to year. 1t is therefore present
each season, though possibly in vary
Ing amount Leaf-curl usually comes
when cool weather, with frequent
rains, prevails during March, April.

the Byron boys expressed their
pleasure by saying that they had
never had any better time than
they did here in Decatur at this
affair.

week from Chicago and will make

to get back to old Decatur, and
that she did not think that she

Nathaniel Rogan, a high school
graduate, was asked to give his
reason why we should study bot
any. He said: Now, you see,
suppose you are out in the woods
with some girls and you come to
flower, nobody knows the name
OF the flower; now here you come,
she says to you, Please, sir, can
you tell me what this is that l
have here in my hand?' You, of
course, having studied botany,
says to her, why, why, that's a
Johnny in the Pulpit and there
you are. That is why we should
study botany" Nate is quite a
philosopher. One day he was at
tempting to explain the difference
between centrifugal force" and
its antithesis. He said: CHOW,
you see, the sun has an orbit, and
the earth has an orbit, and the
thing that keeps the sun from
getting in the way of the earth
and the thing that keeps the earth
from getting in the way of the
sun is called centrifugal force. !"
Nate tackled DR.. Crockette, pas
tor of the Antioch Baptist church,
one day and insisted on taking up
the Doctors time in having him
explain to him number of diff
cult questions, chief among them
was why was it that they did not
play cards on Noah's Ark. Rev.
Crockette tried to explain to Nate
that they probably had no cards
in those days and that old Noah
was very religious old man, as
may be he wouldn't allow such
thing to occur. But Nate was
there with an answer quite differ
emit. One which has become the
password around every Decatur
freside. Why" he said, "they
did have cards then and they had
cards on that ark. But the reason
that they did not play is that
Noah was sitting on the deck. ;"
Nate objects very strenuously to
travelling on the water. When
asked to explain, he said, "When
the train wrecks dar you is, but
when the ship wrecks, whar is
your" 1t is said that Nate was
an awful smart boy when he was
child. They say that people
used to come for miles around to
see Nate and hear him talk. Why
he was crawling at two weeks old
and at six weeks he could run
hundred yards in something less

explain about gravity, the borreal
