Melanose Controlled by Spray

Melanose in citrus groves may
be controlled in two ways. The
better is by pruning out the dead
wood which harborS the disease.
But in some cases pruning has
been delayed or could not be
done. In such cases, II. E. Stew
ems, plant pathologist to the Uni
versity of Florida Experiment
Station, recommends spraying.
The same sprayings given for
scab with bordeaux mixture or
ammoniacal solution of copper
carbonate will tend to control
melanose.
There is not much danger of
after the first of August
as a rule. Consequently spray
ing should be done in July. 1t is
not necessary to spray if the
dead wood has been pruned out or
if there is no dead wood in the
grove.

Banishing Disease

You don't have to be sick il
you don't want to-if you are
willing to take reasonable pre-,
cautions to avoid it.
It's a doctrine strange to many
and hard to be accepted, but it s
a fact that much of the prevalent
illness is avoidable, and the price
of immunity is intelligence re-
garding the causes of diseases
and putting this intelligence into
practical use.
Mothers are just now being ed
ucated away from the belief that
measles, whooping cough and
other childrens diseases are in
evitable. Our grandmotherS and
a good many OF their daughters
used to think the kids had to have
these things some time, that they
were as sure to come as taxes
and funeral, and they might as
well come now and be out of the
way, People sanitarily jntelli-
gent, know that such convictions
are really foolish, that these in
fantile troubles are not necessary
and that they should be warded
off and fought against.
The same thing is true of ty-
phoid fever, malaria and many
other diseases that come at any
period of life-they don't have to
be contracted and they may be
avoided at the cost of intelligent
living and watchfulness.
This idea suggests the reason
able conclusion that it is possible
that diseases may be eventually
from the community

Rust Mites Damaging Citrus

Reports from various parts OF
the state indicate that rust mites
arc attacking citrus fruits severe.
| ~. 1t is probable that they will
be found in practically every
grove They are so small that
the average grower who is not ac-
customed to their appearance will
have trouble in finding them. A
strong hand lens must be used in
most cases to distinguish them.
Rust mites damage citrus fruits
IN the following ways, according
to }. r. Watson, entomologist to
the University of Florida Expert
ment Station; They rust the fruit
and cause it to grade low. They
make the fruit smaller than it
would be normally and conse-
more fruits are required
for a box They cause the fruit
to mature late and delay coloring.
It is probable that they injure the
tree.
Mr.. Watson recommends lime
'ulfur for control, One part of
he commercial solution will be-
sound efficient.

the state or the country. 1t is nc
theory, for medicol science has
knowledge that certain diseases
existed in the past, which proba.
bly, have become extinct. This is
because the causes that brought
these diseases have vanished, the
germs that made them possible
have persisted from among man
kind. Following the same line of
thought it is imaginable that dis
eases now prevalent may be WHIP
ed out, especially as we have now
a definite knowledge of the causes
of such diseases and of how thew
may be prevented.
A physician of wide reputation
has predicted that in twenty
years typhoid fever will be rare
disease, because the means of con-
trolling it are known and by the
application of this knowledge it
has been practically banished
from the United States Army and
Navy.
A movement was begun a year
or more ago by the Southern
Medical Association to wipe out
malaria from the Southern States
and eventually from the entire
country, theoretically it is en-
tirely practicable and the only
and most difficult fea-
ture of the problem is to secure
the cooperation of the people
themselves, who are to be bene-
fitted by the results.
1t is practicable because it is
known that it is a parasitic dis
ease, and that the organisms are
carried from the person infected |

FARM AND GROVE IN FLORIDA
Agricultural News Service University of Florida
College of Agriculture

raing season that the Florida far
.mcr wants to raise cOwpeas. But
if they are sown during July they
will mature in the fall when there
is not so much danger of rain, be-
cause the rainy season will have
passed.
John NJ. Scott, animal indus
trialist to the University of Flori-
.da, recommends that cOwpeas be
planted in rows from twenty-four
to thirty inches apart. This will
require about half a bushel of
seed to the acre. One or two cul-
tivations should be given. A
mong the best varieties are brab-
ham and iron.
The peas will not only furnish
hay, but they will protect and en-
rich the land during summer.

Amt It Awful, Mabel?

People Of the United States,
your liberties are gone Satan has
possession Of the country, and the
sooner we get out and move to
Patagonia, the better.
just read this from the Fort
Lauderdale Sentinel of the 30th
ult:
We can see great conflict a.
mong the races of men, and feel
the ebbtide of dying nation with
resources gone; we gaze upon a
land devastated and people in
despair; we sorrow over desc
Grafton beyond repair. Greed has
despoiled us of the vital spark of
the Republic; languor takes the
place of energy and moral cow
ardice sweeps the land. Organ
lied evils stand a menace to the
equal rights of man; plant tools
make the laws under which we
live that greed may fatten upon
the profits of labor We will not
profit by the teachings of history.
We calmly permit a few to make
the laws, create our courts, and
use the government for mans OBJ
preston while they take from
toiling millions the right to enjoy
the luxuries produced by their la
Dor. By controlling the press,
they educate the people to believe
In false doctrines and worship
false gods. By creating dissen-
sion among the poor, they use one
against the other, while they in
smiling plenty enjoy in idleness
the luxuries of the world.

State Insurance

j AT the last session of the South
Carolina legislature, which was
held in January and February of
the present year, an act was pass
cd regulating the operations Of
the insurance companies doing
business in that state. The in
surance trust had become so in
tolerable in its exactions as to de
mand some relief for the people
of the state, and a law was pass
ed, the principle feature of which
was that the insurance companies
were prohibited from fixing rates
arbitrarily among themselves,
thereby cutting off all competi-
ton and maintaining rates at ex-
horbitant and unreasonable fig
ureS.
The insurance companies re-
scented this by Withdrawing from
the state, under the impression no
doubt that by producing an insur-
ance famine, they could force the
repeal of the law. But in this
they were woefully mistaken; for
instead of producing that effect,
it has only aroused the determi-
nation of the people of South
Carolina not to submit to the die
tation of the insurance trust, but
to take care of themselves. In
the event the trust should actual
Iy carry out its threat to with
draw from the state, special
session of the legislature will be
called to provide system of state
insurance, which there is no doubt
can be done much more !
'afely and at far less cost than by t
he old companies.
AS a result of this fight against
he exactions of the insurance t
rust, the people of South Caro- S
ina have at last gotten on the {
light track-that of state insur- {
in our view, must t
Ultimately be adopted by the peo-
'le Of all the states as a matter of '
1t was urged by '
3roward during his term of office, {
'ut our legislators, neither then
Tor since, have had the backbone
o act upon it. But it will come.

ing the blades off before the ear
is mature? 1t looks like trouble
for nothing, and it is.
Fodder pulling is one of the
heritages of mistaken age. A
long time ago some farmer poss-
essed with a misdirected thrift
sought to make a dual purpose
plant of his corn. The practice
was born then and it has been
continued. Even where feed is
short, fodder pulling is not advis-
able. 1t only contributes to a
further shortage little later. G.
l.. Harrington, boys club agent
for the University of Florida Ex-
tension Division, has compiled da-
ia on fodder pulling from all the
stations in states where it is prac-
ticed He finds that at least IS
per cent. by weight Of the grain
S lost. Some stations place the
oss as high as 25 per cent. If
he whole plant is considered this
oss runs much higher.
Even if the yield were not cut,
fodder pulling would be expen-

And even when the fodder is har-

Watch for Citrus Scab on Late
Bloom

Late bloom is apt to be attack,
ed by citrus scab during the rainy
season. Owing to unusual condi,
lions which obtained this year
there is a great deal of late, and
especially June bloom. July is
the critical period for this bloom,
and unless something is done to
check the scab the crop will be
reduced materially in some sec
tons.
II. E. Stevens, plant patholo-
gist to the University of Florida
Experiment Station, recommends
two thorough sprayings with a
3 3 80 bordeaux mixture to con-
troll the disease during this per-
iod. The first spraying should be
given the first of July and the
other about the middle. If scales
increase after the bordeaux is
used they may be controlled by
some of the contact insecticides.
Ammoniacal solution of copper
carbonate may be used if Dor
deaux is not available, but an adj
dltlonal spraying may be requir-
ed II the ammoniacal solution is
used.
The same spraying will also
help to control melanose in those
groves where pruning has not
been done.

Anophesis mosquito, which in at
lacking the patient draws the dis
ease laden blood and with this
load of poison infects the next in
dividual that it lights upon. 1t
lis known that this particular in
sect is active and dangerous only
in the late afternoon and at night.
1t is infected by the person suf-
fering from the disease and it in
turn infects the healthy person.
The cycle of the disease may be
broken by preventing the mosqui-
to from reaching either the well
or the sick individual.
The fable that malaria is an
air-bornc disease, especially and
necessarily an accompaniment of
new and andeveloped countries,
has been passed into the discard
and if the disease seems to -four
ish particularly in such surround
ings, it is because the mosquito
finds his best breeding places in
the damp soil and swamps. 1t is
absolutely essential that the hu.
man host, carrying malarial para,
sites in his blood, shall bring the
disease into any section, new OF
old, before it can appear OF
spread.
The summer season in Florida
is the time of widest prevalence
of the disease because the mos
quito is most active in warm
weather. Malaria is carried from
one summer to another, through
the time of inactivity of the mos,
quito, in the blood of the human
patient, and when the spring
brings the insect, it finds the host
ready to serve it with the para
site descended from last year s
1t is a part of the plan for the
extinction Of the disease that
those who have it shall rid them
selves of it by the simple remedies
and that gradually the disease
shall be lessened and eventually
reduced to its minimum.
One of the biggest obstacles to
he practical teachings of medi-
,al science today is the protest of
