Mr.. ]. H. Hale who grows fruit from
New England to Florida, sprays extensi-
vefy with Lime-Sulphur against the San
Jose and other scale insects and says
1t cleans up the trees. Not only is it
sure death to scales but is also a good
fungicide killing disease spores, MOSES,
ETC., and smoothing up the bark.
The demand for Sulphur has
grown SO rapidly and competition has
become so great as to drive some manu-
facturers to cheaper their product, while
Others produce richer article, feeling
that the highest quality is really the
cheapest. Those who buy the best
quality spray but once in season; those
who buy lower grades often have to spray
twice, but they choose the higher grade
the second time.
The Bowker Insecticide Co., whose
new plant at Baltimore is completed, is
one of the oldest manufacturers of
spraying materials and make the highest
grade Lime Sulphur. We advise every
one who grows fruit to write the Bowker
Insecticide Co., Equitable Bldg, Balti-
more, stating how many trees and what
kinds are to be sprayed and asking the
advice of the Company's experts, for
which no charge is made. They send
interesting literature free on request.

Death of Mrs. Seigler.

Mrs. Jane Seigler departed this
life Friday morning September 18th,
being at the time in her s5th year.
The interment took place Saturday
morning at the Seigler burial
ground. Rev. J. T. Littlejohn offia-
ted at the funeral.
Mrs. Seigler made her home with
her daughter, Mrs. Caddie Hughey,
where her every want was promptly
and affectionately ministered to. Be-
fore her late illness, Mrs.Seigler was
in an enfeebled condition because of
her advanced age but she received
the mostkindly attention from every
member of this Christian home. For
a number of years Mrs. Seigler has
not been actively identified with the
social and religious life of her
church and community, but before
the infrmities of age began to weigh
upon her she was one of
the leading forces in all that con-
tributed in any way to the welfare
of the community.
If we mistake not, she was a life
long member of Gilgal church. She
leaves two daughters, Mrs. John
Williamson and Mrs. Caddie Hugh
ey, and two sons, Messrs. D. j., and
]. o. Seigler.
