Peaches Fall Before Ripe

Will you please tell me the cause of peaches falling and rotting before they are ripe? l have tree with beautiful large Alberta peaches, but they rot and fall. Can you tell me what to do? The tree is about seven years old and has been damaged by the storms several times Would you advise cutting it down, or will it ever be of any use? Also wha. are those horrible looking thousand legs. and what causes them?
 The peaches have been stung by in- sects who burrow to the heart and lay their eggs there, or the tree has been blighted by the Sam Jose scale or othcs destroyer of the horticulturist's hopes. Fave it examined by gardener who knows his business and take his advice. The only remedy for the scale is, accord Ing to some authorities. to cut down and burn the tree, root. and branch. Tho thousand leg should be treated with a solution of Paris green, and soak the earth in his neighborhood with weak lime Water to keep eggs from matching.

 And
 They aren't big men, either.

 They are not tall.

 As l was about to say before l flew off at a tangent

 And
 Mir Edward Bellclair is the one who makes the flying leap and lands in the others hands.
 Now
 Is that plain enough?
 Personally
 It wouldn't spell single. blessed thing to me
 But
 Then
 I'm so stupid about seeing through things.
 And
 Besides
 It's awfuly hard to draw pen pictures of two people so much alike.
 Br. Ben Bellclair, wearing his plain cit izen's clothes, is very much like the av- craze man.
 When he was chatting with me in the Florence hotel the other day his natty, pepper and salt suit showed very de- cidedly that he patronizes a good tailor. And
 His well groomed hands, and well-shod feet showed also that things sartorial as well as physical development meant something to him.
 He began at the beginning and said:
 I'm foreigner. my people came from Budapest. but 1 was born in this country and received my early education In New York. As youpgster 1 used to do stunts that sort of made the other little fellows sit up and take notice, but some how I never thought of being a profess sional gymnast At school we were re- quired to do a certain amount of physical work, and let me say right here that I think every boy should be made to take course in physical training, not only from the standpoint of health, but also from the standpoint of protection A man who has a wel-developed arm doesn't
