This entire country was shocked with
grief when the news reached here that
the corpse of Waddy G. Garret was on
it's way here from Iuka, Miss, where
he met his untimely death by being
drowned in the Tennessee river, August
16, 1916. He and some others were
fishing whenhis boat capsized and sank
about three hundred yards from the
bank. Being an excellent swimmer, he
reached within ten feet of the land
when he was attacked with the cramp.
His friends hurried to his rescue and,
it is said, caught his hat as he went
down.
There is much that could be said in
commentator of Waddy' 8 life but moth
ing can recall it. He was noted sing
er, expecting to go the following week
to conduct singing for protracted
meeting. For twenty years he was a
member of the Baptist church and his
friends speak of him as having been an
upright and cheerful christian. He was
38 years Of age. He is survived by his

EARLY 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 and
peach orchards should be SPRAYED with
the concentrated lime sulphur al
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, SIS gallons water
arid boil for one hour. The home
made solution had better be diluted at
the rate of one to seven or eight parts
of water
The above treatment will control the
San Jose Scale, and aid in preventing
leaf curl, disease especially bad on
the liberia variety of peaches. All
spraying apparatus should be gone
over and put in good shape for work.
II Is expensive to stop work in the
field to fix 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 1t is On the tender wood that
the scale settles Trees can be
sprayed with this dormant solution
until the buds begin to swell
Small Orchards.
II is the small growers that some
times neglects this treatment. There
are many home orchards in the state
that are not producing a revenue.
Now is the time to make their fruit
good by first giving them a severe
pruning and good spraying In many
places. such as towns, a group of peo-
pie should get together and employ
some one to spray their trees. In this
way the work can be done more cheap
y and satisfactorily, buy using good
barrel pump, than if the individuals
attempt to do the work with small
pumps Orchardists who have been
troubled with scab in apples should
prepare to spray with Bordeaux mix
ture just as the bloom shows pink.
Persons desiring further information
should communicate with the Exten-
sion Service, College Park, Nd.

MATCHED PULLETS MAKE
WINTER LAYERS.
Poultry Keepers Are Advised AS To
Best Time And Methods of
Hatching

ROY H. WAITE,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.
In order to get a flock of pullets
that will produce well in early fall and
winter the chicks must be Matched
early enough so that they will have
time to mature. A partly matured
pullet cannot grow, keep warm, and
lay eggs in cold weather. The time
10 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 flocks of the
same breed. Matched at the same time,
may look very different when they are
few months old. Some flocks under
favorable conditions may even mature
twice as quickly as others poorly cared
for.
Five or six months is usually consid-
cred about the proper time to allow
for maturing the Leghorn 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 Matched during
April viii usually commence laying
few eggs about the first part of Sep
TENDER 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 fill in part of the gap be-
tween the moulting and the starting of
the old hens TO lay. White Leghorns
Matched even as late as June some
times begin laying about December
and June Matched 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-
