The pruning tools should be kept

the splitting when the limb falls.

Summer vegetables should be cooked
on the same day they are gathered.
Second, look them over and wash

peeled, in cold water for some time
before using. Fourth, always let

and continue To boil until done.

THE HOME ORCHARD


As the winter advances toward
Spring, the farmer begins to won
der IL the fruit buds are still alive.
II is far more important that he
should begin TO consider whether or
not the trees are affected with San
Jose scale.
Damage caused by frost will prob
ably last only one season; failure TO
spray for scale may cause loss
that will last for several years and
in some and most cases kill the or
chard.
Now is the time to make the ar
rangements for the winter applica-
ton of lime sulfur for San Jose
scale. In a short time other work
will begin to press and the orchard
rs usual will be neglected.
The only practical method known
for the control Of San Jose scale is
10 spray the orchard with concen-.
trated lime sulfur or one Of the SOL
uble oils prepared for this purpose.
If the farmer is in doubt as to the
presence of San Jose scale in his
orchard he should take samples OF
twigs TO his County Agent or ask
County Agent to visit him or send
some twigs for the Extension d.
vision, Kentucky state University.
Lexington, Ky. If the scale is pres
ent. additional information will he
mailed TO the farmer Immediately.
This Department wants to help all
the farmers tho they have little or
chards. The farmer should also
keep in mind that the County Agent
is his nearest and best friend in all
his farm problems.
For a small orchard, barrel
sprayer will be big enough. In case
the orchard is large one, a power
outfit should be used in order to con-
serve valuable time. Berea College
has a power sprayer and would be
more than glad to demonstrate its
use anu value W tlt ldl Ih'iS ~ any
farmers meeting.
Commercial concentrated lime sui
fur is the best to use. II can be
bought from your local hardware
dealer or druggist.
The lime sulfur should be diluted
with water at the rate Of one gallon
of lime sulfur to about seven or
eight of water before applying it.
Remember that this mixture kills
only the scales il comes in contact
with. Spray thoroughly all parts of
the tree from all directions in order
10 he sure that every scale is COW
cred.

Don't forget to begin your pruning
now. Always prune before spray
ing. The time is near when fruit

ming as Governor, has held strictly
to the question of whether Governor
Manning deserves reelection. We
have charged no crimes TO Mr. Coop.
er, or to Mr. Blease. or to any other
candidate. We believe that other
mea than Governor Manning would
make good Governors, and at some
other time would support those men
as heartily as we now support our
present Governor. Our sole conten-
ton is that South Carolina cannot
and will not fail TO reward Manning
for the faithful discharge Of his du-
ties, and she will not set him up as
a failure by slapping him in the face
with defeat by making him the
first Governor in forty years to
fail for reelection. He has fought
lawlessness; he has fathered some
constructive legislation; he has placed
the Hospital for the Insane in prop
er condition to take care of the poor
folk there, who are not criminals
and should not be treated as such;
he spent several thousands of his
own money to accomplish this re-
form and then would not allow the
State to reimburse him; he has saw
ed the State many thousands of dol
lars in interest by borrowing money
at very low rate. These and
many other things cause US to favor
Manning. We do not favor him
because of the demerits of his op-
ponents, but upon his own record in
the office he seeks again.--Har'on
