ORCHARD AND GARDEN
NOTES FOR AUGUST

PEACHES-The peach crop of
the state is going to market in
good condition and demanding
uniformly good prices. The crop
is somewhat larger than was first
estimated.
Remove rotting fruit and bro
ken branches from the orchard as
fast as the crop is moved.
Spray once this month with
self-boiled lime sulphur for peach
es ripening in September and
October.
Finish mounding trees f or bcr-
ers, the g reater per cent of the
moths come out and lay during
the months of August and Sep
TENDER.
APPLES-For late varieties
that are subject to bitter rot
spray twice in August with Bor-
deauX mixture and o nee for 9th
er varieties.
PECANS-For ease bearers
use one pound of arsenate of
lead (powder), one pound of
quick lime, to fifty gallons of
water. Put on last of August or
the first of September.
August is a good time to bud
pecans. The buds will not grow
until the following season but
they usually live better and come
out we'll in the spring. Cut off
suckers around base of trees.
Don't let weeds grow up in the
orchards. They harbor insects
and diseases.
When you have finished spray
ing clean and oil the pumps tho
roughly and put them away in
good condition.
Prepare for winter cover crops
in the orchards by gettin price
list of clovers, vetch, oats and
| rye. Have seed on hand by the
first of September.
Crops to be planted in August
for the fall and winter garden
beans, (bush), beets, cabbage, eel
cry (set out plants), collards,
corn, kale, kohl rabi, lettuce, po-
tatoes (early varieties, cobler,
bliss, etc. radish, rutabaga, tur-
Inips.
Corn may be planted in this
latitude for late roasting ears,
early maturing prolific varieties.
Cobler and bliss potatoes may be
Iplanted to the middle of August.
This list may be used to advan-
tage in replanting the gardens
that have been drowned out dur
ling the recent heavy rains.
The tomato crop in most places
has gone to the bad. The vines
that are dead from the wilt and
blight should be removed from
the garden and burned. The
fruits that are infected with
blossom end rot and rot from
worms should also be taken out
and destroyed.
Don't neglect the garden be-
cause the other crops are laid by.
The boil weevil is almost in sight.
A good garden the year round is
better than a AZ centimeter for
lighting the boil weevils with.
Remember the COW, the hen, the
garden are three prime money
makers. J. T. PITTMAN.

BUTTER RECORD
OFFICIAL TEST MADE BY STATE

PUTS SOUTH DA-
kOTA FIRST.

Belle Fourche, Dec. 20.-M. j.
Smiley, an old resident of this city.
has a COW that has given 47.77
pounds of butter in eve days. This
is the worlds record for all cows of
any age and breed.
The official test to determine the
actual amount of butter produced by
that COW in a given time was made
by Prof. Larson. of the State college
at Brookings.
The highest record for butter pro-
ducing qualities was held formerly
by a cow i'm the state of New York.
But Mr.. Smiley's cow beats this east
ern record by almost two pounds of
butter.
Such a record of a COW in the beef
section OF South Dakota is attracting
the attention of all dairy people to
this state and TO its wonderful posi-
bilities for developing the dairy in
dustry along similar lines.
/ Mr.. Smiley has received hundreds
of kilograms and letters since the Of
fetal test of his cows butter giving
qualities was made. asking for his
price. But he has set no price yet.
and very likely will not set any. as
he wants TO keep the cow.

WOMAN DIVORCED AND MAR
RIED THE SAME DAY.

Sioux Falls, Dec. 20.-The speed
lest divorce and marriage on record
in this county took place here yester-
day. Judge Jones yesterday after
noon granted a decree of divorce to
Edna May Mines Carmody from Alex
b. Carmody. As soon as the decree
was issued il was taken by the happy
divorce to the office of the clerk of
courts where she and j. Alphonso
Gagnon, of Estelline, this state, wait
ed for the clerk of the courts to re-
cord the decree. AS soon as this was
done Mr.. Gagnon and the plaintiff in
the divorce action, who had been
given the right to take back her
maiden name, under the name of
Edna May Mines were granted a mar
riage license. In the evening the
couple were united in marriage by
Judge A. +. Orr. of the municipal
court, and a wedding supper follow
ed, participated i'm by a number OF
intimate friends.
A peculiar situation in connection
with the affair is that when the di-
vorce case was being tried the plain
tiff swore that she was and had been
for more than a year past a resident
of Sioux Falls, and before the ink
was fairly dry on the divorce decree
when making the application for the
marriage license she swore that she
was a resident of Menominee. Mich.
