How To Make Homemade Lime.
Sulphur.

For equipment one should have a
large kettle holding sixty or seventy
gallons. This will allow a full barrel
of liquid boiled at time without dan.
ger of boiling over. Better yet
would be a boiler where live steam
could be produced and used for the
heating agency. In this case wooden
tanks or barrels could be used for boil.

as may also the tiny black eggs Of the
Green Aphls. Among diseases, the
peach leaf curl is held in check by a
winter application, while the first blow
against apple scab.is dealt at this time.
What To Spray With.
Several materials may be used for
dormant spraying TO accomplish differ
ent purposes. Oil sprays, such as
Scalicide, will be effective against
scale, Bordeaux Mixture Will control
leaf curl. but Iime-Sulphur solution
will do the work OF both. As 1t is
chea per, easier and more satisfactory
to apply and is usually considered
more effective, this last-named solu-
lion is now used almost to the eXclu-
sion OF all Others for winter treatment.
Either the concentrated commercial
solution or the homemade product
may be used with equal effect The
owner of a small orchard will probably

GOOD PROGRAMME
FOR CONVENTION
Everything in Readiness for
Sunday School C0nven-
ti0n in Huntsville

Montgomery March 11-(Special -
1t is announced at the headquarters of
| the Alabama Sunday School associa-
tion in Montgomery that the pro-
gramme for the approaching state
Sunday school convention at Hunts
vile, April 15 16, II, has been com
pleted and includes about 60 of the
strongest Sunday school workers, SUI
perintendents and pastors of Alabama
and other states.
Several new features of modern Sun
day school work never before dis
cussed al a state convention will be
on the programme this year. On ac-
count of the fact that this Is the
ldrest religious gathering of any sort
in Alabama, the railroads have grant
ed special reduced rate of about one
half the regular fare. For the con-
venience and pleasure of the delegates
travelling to this convention, the state
association has arranged for a special
train over the Louisville and Nashville
railroad to be known as the "Presi-
dents Special" leaving Mobile early
on the morning of Monday, April IA,
stopping in Montgomery for dinner
and for connection with other lines.
and arriving at Huntsville that even
ing. This train will be in charge of
r. o. Harris of Mobile. president of
the Alabama Sunday School associa-
ton, and r. l.. Howell. secretary of
the Mobile County association, and
will run through without change of
cars from Mobile to Huntsville. Stops
will be made at all important way sta
tions. Special trains are also being
talked of on other railroads.
The Mobile delegation are coming
to the state convention this year with
the determination of having the next
state convention in Mobile. 1t is ru-
mored, however, that Gadsden and one
or two other towns may make a pull
for it.
State Secretary Palmer reports that
that the work throughout the state in
general has made substantial prog
ress in the past few months and that
every county in Alabama except
Blount, Clay, Cullman, Marion, Pick
ems and st. Clair Is up TO the banner
standard. Clay, CuMman and Marion
counties lack only one or two district
conventions of reaching the standard,
and Blount. Pickens and st. Clair need
only statistical report from the Sun
day schools to bring them up. Inas-
much as they lack so little of being up
to the standard it is believed that be-
fore the state convention every coun-
ty in Alabama will be a banner
county.
