RlY SPRAYING OF
The ORCHARD Is URGED
T. B. sYMoNs,
Maryland Agricultural College.


The man who wins in the orchard
business is the man who prepares
for the harvest in the early spring.
Trees should be pruned properly and
all dead wood and brush removed
from the orchard Both apple ard
peach orchards should be sprayed with
the concentrated lime sulphur at a
dilution Of one part Of the solution to
nine parts of water. Growers can buy
this material and make It themselves
using 100 pounds sulphur and SO
pounds stone lime, 55 gallons water
and boil for ore hour The home
made solution Il; ett-r Ne diluted at
the rate Of cne to seven or e..,;l parts
Of wa-e
Tta above treatment win control the
San Jose Scale, and aid in preventing
leaf curl, a disease cs7ze eially bad on
the Elberta variety OF aches. All
spraying apparatus should be gone
over and put in good shape for work.
It is expensive to stop work in the
field to fly up parts or mend hose, etc
Be sure that the spraying is done
thorough, that Is all parts Of the trees
should be hit especially the terminal
twigs for it is on the tender wood that
the scale settles. Trees can be
sprayed with this dormant solution
until the buds begin to swell.

EARLY HATcHED PULLETs MAKE
WINTER LAYERS.
Poultry Keepers Are Advised As To
Best Time And Methods Of
HstchinG.
ROY H. WAITE,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Gt.Einn


Station.
In order to ret a flock of pullets
that WI produce we'll in early fall and
winter the chicks must be hatched
early enough so that they will have
lime to mature. A partly matured
pullet cannot grow, keep warm, and
lay eggs in cold weather. The time
to get her matured is during the nat,
ural growing season when the wealth
er is most favorable
The period required for maturity
varies with different breeds and it also
varies with the way the chickens are
cared for and fed Two fiocks Of the
same breed. hatched at the same time,
may look very different when they are
few months old Some focks under
favorable conditions may even mature
twice as quickly as others poorly cared
for.
Five or six months Is USUALLY c1nsid-
cred about the proper time to allow
for maturing tic LegAorn varieties.
They can sometimes be grown in a
shorter period but it is not considered
good practice to force them too much.
The heavier breeds like the Ply
mouth Rocks, Wyandottes Rhode Is
land Reds, etc. require more time
Six or seven months should be allowed
for them and with some of the ex
tremely large breeds like the Light
Brahmas an even longer time is re
quired.
Hatch In April.
White Leghorns hatched during
April will usually commence laying
a few eggs about the first part Of Sep
tember and be laying in "full blast"
in October. April is an ideal month
in which to hatch this breed for the
weather is usually such as to give the
chicks a good start and they mature
in time to All in part of the gap be
tween the moulting and the starting OF
the old hens to lay. White Leghorns
hatched even as late as June some.
times begin laying about December
and June hatched Leghorns are usu
ally considered successful.
March is considered an ideal month
for Matching the large breeds but it is
often difficult, especially to those on
farms. to have things in shape for
such early Matching. In any event
chickens should be Matched as early
as possible.
Where one can make use of an incu
bator the problem is considerably
simplified. An incubator is broody

machine regulated, but it is often din

HOG and HOMINY
CAMPAIGN PLANNED
LIVE STOCK AND CROP EXHIBIT
WILL COME HERE IN CRU
SADIE AGAINST WEEVIL.

Plans are being perfected for a
"hog and hominy" campaign and
anti-boll weevil crusade, in which the
state college of agriculture, business
men and farmers are to cooperate.
The campaign will begin at the first
of the year and cover the entire
southern part of Georgia. Terrell
county will be one of the first visited.
The crusade will be conducted in
two ways. Four teams of speakers
are to cover the territory, addressing
farmers out in rural sections, at least
five to ten places in county. Pure
bred livestock and a farm crop eX-
hibit will be carried along with the
school to help demonstrate the teach
ings of the experts. Thus will the
horses, cattle, cows and grain be do
ing some of the teaching.
Banker From Boil Weevil Section.
The experts who are to address the
farmers ons growing cotton in spite
of the boil weevil are men who have
made a success in growing cotton in
the presence of the boil weevil. One
banker from boil weevil territory is
to speak especially to business men to
tell how changes in business methods
have been made in boil weevil terri
tory.
Cordial cooperation is being of
fered by various business interests
and educational institutions of the
state in this ''hog and hominy" cam
paign and boil weevil crusade. The
planning of the undertaking is now
under way, and it is stated that no
movement recently has been launch
ed more auspiciously than this cam
paign.

HAWAIIAN SINGERS
COMING TO DAWSON
The Twang of the Ukelele Will Soon
Be Heard by Local Music Lovers.
Musical Comedies, Too.

The country has of sudden gone
mad over Hawaiian music. The Ian
guorous twang of the ukelele is heard
in all the leading centers of music.
The outdoor parks and the verandas
of the big summer hotels eXuded the
"goola goola" during the summer
Just closed
Now the theatrical managers have
joined the worshippers at the throne
and the musical comedies coming out
of New York are redolent with the
seductive island music.
All of this is interesting in view
of the fact that Dawson is soon to
be favored with the appearance Of
the Waikiki Hawaiian Singers and
Players, who are coming on the lyce-
UNI course. Again the lyceum man
ayers have demonstrated that they
are not asleep at the switch, for this
time they lead their theatrical breth-
rem a full half season in providing
for the patrons of the lyceum the lat
est thing in popular music.
The company which is coming to
us is said to be an artistic combina-
ton, capable of giving entire ade-
quate rendition of the Hawaiian mu-
sic. They will probably attract a
capacity audience here, for our music
lovers are keen for the new thing,
and will be glad of the opportunity of
hearing the music which has set the
feet of a nation to keeping time.
