BITTER ROT IN ORCHARDS
To Be Controlled. Muat Be Fought
With Bordeaux Mixture.

Bitter rot this year Is proving seri-
Gus in some orchards. 1t is the one
disease of apples which must be
fought hard from its first appearance
in the orchard If it is to be controlled
at all. Even IL there is only tree
or two showing the disease, steps
should be taken at once to spray and
to clean out the diseased fruit. 1t may
be worth while to strip the affected
tress entirely and take the fruit
to the evaporation rather than take
any chance on leaving a small infec1
ton to later become a rotten spot
and help to spread the trouble.
Bordeaux Mixture Spray.
The spray mixture used for bitter
rot is bordeaux mixture at strength
of 100000. It's application to the|
fruit and twigs and limbs of the trees
simply prevents the spread of thel
disease by preventing the growth oil
terminating spores.
Spraying will not pay where thel
bitter rot is not first removed FROM
the trees, and if there is so much rot
in the orchard that it cannot be re-
moved without taking all the fruit.
that portion of the orchard would
best be Stripped. Lee Hewett.

Agriculture, Fayetteville.

WHY NOT WINTER
OATS IN ARKANSAS
Fall Sown Oats Yield Better Than
Those Planted in SprIno-Sturdler
and Fit in Well With System Of Ro-
tation.

Why not fall oats1 Two crops Of
fall sown oats yield as much as three
crops of spring sown oats. Fall sown
oats will yield at least SO per cent
greater than spring sown oats. The

Rate Of Seeding.
