1.-The Searchli8l1t
Solid Natural Gas as an Automobile
Fuel.

Gasoline may be given serious compeu-
ton as an automobile fuel by solicited
natural gas according to investigations
of Henry S. Blackmore. Mr.. B1ackmore
finds that liquifled natural gas Is q fluid
like gasoline. Eight or ten gallons Of IT
can be produced from 1000 feet Of gas.
The fluid natural gas has an advantage
over gasoline, in that It can be produced
at about cents a gallon. and, further.
because it leaves no carbon deposit to
clog the cylinders.
Still more advantageous, however,. is
natural gas further concentrated into
solid form. 1t Is cheaper than gasoline.
1t leaves no carbon residue. And cubic
foot Of the solid gas, Weighing about five
pounds, will carry an automobile from
twelve to fifteen times as far as q cubic
would represent q much easier problem
than the storage OF gasoline.
A cubic foot of the solid product COM
prises the condensation Of 2, 500 cubic fest
of natural gas. 1t has the appearance OF
/ crystallized parahin, softens to q putty
like consistency at 2l2 degrees. and be-
| gins to turn back to gas again at 312 de-
| grees. Both the solid and the liquid nat
| urai gas are perfectly safe to handle. It
! is possible that the automobilist OF to,
! morrow will fire with the solid gas and
| without laying several bricks Of this fuel
| in box next to his tool kit, thereby i'm
| surfing himself against present common
annoyancee Of getting halfway to some
where when the fuel gives out with no
| fresh supply in sight.

We are entitled to more than enough to
keep body and soul together; We are as
much entitled to the good things as the
wealthy people, because we are the ones
who have produced them. We will not
go to a church more than once. because
we think that Is taking charity. To go
only once is to receive from the churches
on the proportion which they owe to US
and which Is ours by right.
I'VE are going to get 1t. We want de-
cent pay. so that we can get clothes and
proper things to wear to keep US warm.
We want to live SO that We will not have

Value of the Annual Farm

meeting of the Georgia Horticultural
Society on January 1920 and the an.

All are to be held at the College of

Special railroad rates have been OBJ

phur to so gallons of water. Reduce
the strength to or gallons to the
so of water after the buds show pink.
The spores of the leaf curl fungus
live over the winter on the branches
and twigs of the peach tree and be-
come active during the two or three
weeks before the buds open. During
this time, by making the winter spray
ing with lime-sulphur solution (com-
mercial lime-sulphur gallons to so Of
water), the scale will be combatted
and the leaf curl prevented. This
spraying must be timed accurately
and made thoroughly to get the best
results. Misible oils will not take the
place of the lime-sulphur solution, al
though they will destroy the scale.
Bordeaux mixture used at the time
above mentioned is very effective
against the scab, but is not effective
against scale.
During the spring Of 1914 serious
damage was done to the blossoms and
young twigs of peach trees by the
brown rot fungus. This disease does
greatest injury to the fruit, but also
takes its toll from the health of twigs.
The infection takes place at bios
soming time and if the second spray
ing is delayed until the buds swell
lime-sulphur will kill the spores.

TIMELY SPRAYING OF
APPLES AND PEACHES
J. w. FIror, Georgia State Col. of Ayr.

Time and labor can be saved by so
timing the spraying of peaches and
apples as to control or destroy several
fungus trouble and an insect at one
operation. Nearly all orchards are in
tested with the San Jose scale. This
necessitates at least one spraying dur
ing the dormant season when the or
chard is slightly infested and two
sprayings when badly infested. Even
when no scale has been observed in
the orchard during the past season, it
Is advisable to make a spring spray
ing to prevent infestation. 1t will
serve also to clean up the trees and
prevent such injurious fungus trou-
bles as the curl Of the peach and scab
of the apple
The worst infection Of the apple
scab takes place during the week or
ten days previous to the opening of the
buds. A thorough spraying with lime
sulphur solution at that time is recon-
mended. The strength of the solution
depends upon the development of the
bud. Up to the first showing of pink
by the buds, use winter strength or S

the state is facing.
Make up your mind that you will
attend the ten days short course and
stay for the farmers conferences
With such information and inspira-
ton obtained at the beginning of the
year, as will be available at these
meetings, the work of the twelve
months will be more profitable and
pleasant. What better place can one
go in Georgia to get the desired in
formation for varying the farm pro-
