SELF-BOILED LIME SULPHUR
Expert of Alabama Experiment Sta
ton Gives Some Excellent Advice
on Spray Material.

Writing in regard to the use of
self-boiled lime-sulphur solution to
combat the San Jose scale, DR.. w. E..
Kinds of the Alabama experiment
station says:
I'VE cannot depend upon the heat
of the lime to produce combination
that will be effective as a winter
wash against San Jose scale. L
fear that the writer's recommending
this, confuse the preparation of self
boiled lime sulphur for summer use
for brown rot with the fire-boiled
wash for the scale. An ineffective
wash means waste of the materials,
labor and perhaps the ruin Of the or
chard also.
There is, of course, latitude for
some variation in the proportion of
lime and sulphur, ranging between
fifteen pounds and twenty pounds of
earth. Considering the danger of get
ting a poor grade of lime. and the
cheapness of that material, / believe
it advisable to use slightly more lime
than sulphur. / would advise eight
cen or twenty pounds of lime and fif-
teen pounds of sulphur to make fifty
gallons of wash 1t is necessary to
boil this for at least thirty minutes,
and better, for forty-five or more, to
get the most effective wash"

MONEY IN OUNCE GROWING
There Is Unlimited Demand for Them
and Fruit is Neglected More
Than Any Other.

Two acres OF ounces ought to make
more money for the farmer than 20
acres of apples, according to J. G.
Written, professor of horticulture in
the Ohio College of Agriculture, in a
lecture to the pomology class.
THE ounce is more neglected in
proportion to it's merits than any of
our orchard fruits" he said. Nobody
ever saw an overplus of ounces. There
is an unlimited demand for them. IF
the farmer has a place where they will
do well, the crop properly handled will
pay better than any of our orchard
fruits. The fruit is the flrmest We have
to ship, the most handsome and the
best keeper"
According to Professor Written,
quince-growing has never had boom.
This Is because the ounce grown I'M
der ordinary treatment, as most of our
apples and other fruits are grown, does
not have a good flavor and is poor in
quality. The trees must have individ-
ual care and expert treatment. 1t re-
quires the greatest skill to select the
right site for the orchard. If prop
erly handled, pruning, spraying and
picking are easier than in our other
orchards.
when cooked the ounce is the best
of our core or stone fruits. For pre-
serves, jellies and the like, the ounce
is the richest, most highly favored and
the most delicious fruit we have"
