the eve was removed and it was dis

rotary Lane, 1t should not be al

with coal as fuel. Petroleum is a
priceless resource, for il can never be
replaced. Trees can be grown again
on the soil from which they have
been taken. But how can petroleum
be produced? IL has taken ages for
nature to distill it in her subter-
ranean laboratory. We do not even
know her process. We may find a
substitute for il, but have not vet.
1t is practically the n lubricant Of

HOW OFTEN TO APPLY LIME.

The quantity Of lime applied varies
considerably in the various sections
and at various times, This has prob
ably been due in large measure to
the cost of lime and the relative dis
lance It must be hauled. Recent OBJ
seryations seem 10 indicate that 1t is
better to apply small quantities and
make the applications at frequent in
tervals rather than to apply very large
quantities at one time. The old prac.
tice of putting Zoe bushels or more pei
acre is seldom practiced now. The
kind of soil to which the application
Is made makes it necessary to vary
the quantity. 1t is now pretty well
recognized that on poor soils and on
sandy soils, the quantity applied al
one time should be small The results
of the test made by the Maryland Elk
pertinent Station indicates that from
10 to 20 bushels is ample for one appli
cation The application should be
made every four 70 eight years.

PREVENT INJURY FROM FRUIT
TREE BARK BEETLE.
T. B. SYMONs,
Maryland Agricultural College Exten
sion Service.

Orchardists should be careful to see
that all dead wood is cut and removed
from the orchard. Such dead wood
or diseased or sickly trees offer an
opportunity for infestauon by the
Fruit Tree Bark Beetle or Shot Hole
Borer. While the attack of this in
sect is usually confined to such wood
after becoming established in an or
chard it may attack perfectly healthy
trees.
The beetles bore into the bark and
sap wood, where they eat vertical gal
leries or brood chambers. into which
the females lay their eggs. The bored
holes are about the size Of No. 6
shot
The adult beetle is about one-tenth
inch long, by a third as wide. and
uniformly black in color. Trees or
parts of trees seriously attacked by
the pest are usually hopeless. Gum
exudes from the holes of the beetles,
and as the young develop into adults
they eat their way out Another in-
jury by the insect is caused by their
habit of attacking small twigs in early
spring by burrowing into the base Of
bud ...,.. p. .E-T's -sr't

Sumner Spray Important
In Securing Clean Fruit
c. E. TEMPLE,
Maryland Agricultural College.

When there is an over-production Of
peaches, the men who take good care
of their orchards usually make some
money in spite of the low prices, for
in such seasons only the best peaches
can be marketed; on the other hand,
when there is less than a normal crop
of peaches, the men who care well for
their trees reap a rich harvest, for they
produce, not only more perfect fruit,
but also more of it than those who
neglect the care of their trees. In the
year 1915, there was an over-production
of peaches in almost all peach-grow-
ing sections of the country and many
peach growers lost money on their
crop, but there is sufficient evidence
now at hand to show that the present
year is going to produce a light crop;
at least in some sections of Maryland.
This, coupled with the fact that the
past season was especially favor
able to the development of Brown Rot
and Scab, 1t would seem that the pres
ent season will be an opportune time
to do effective, profitable spraying.
1t is with considerable satisfaction
that we find practically all growers
giving their peach trees the dormant
spraying for scale and leaf curl; how
ever, it is to be regretted that we find
so few who realize the value or who
have demonstrated the effectiveness of
the self-boiled lime sulphur summer
spraying for brown rot and scab. 1t is
for those, then, who are not familiar
with the summer treatment that this
article is prepared.
At least three applications of self
boiled lime sulphur $3.50 should be
given. One pound of powdered arsen-
ate of lead or two pounds of the paste
should be dissolved in water and add
ed to the above for the first spraying
when the shucks are splitting off and
tor the second spraying which should
De three weeks later When only three
spraying are given, the third should
De made about month before the fruit
"opens. Wherever brown rot or scab
IS severe, other sprayings may be
necessary to control the disease.
But the chemicals used are not ex-
pensive For the three sprayings as
outlined here, the chemicals will cost
between $500 and $500 per hundred

WILT RESISTANT CABBAGE is
DEVELOPED.
Maryland Agricultural College.
c. f. TEMPLE,

For ten years, Mr., T. II. White, of
the Maryland Experiment Station, has
been devoting a part of his time to
the production of a variety of cab
bage that would be resistant 70 GER
tain destructive diseases. He has de-
veloped a strain of the Flat Dutch
type which is resistant to the yellows,
this being one Of the worst diseases
of this cabbage plant,
The Extension Service of the Mary
land Agricultural College in co-opera-
ton with the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, has arranged to conduct
some demonstrations to show the
value Of this improved seed and to
distribute it over the State. In order
TO secure a demonstration, the grower
must agree to set the plants from the
resistant seed in the same field with
plants from commercial seed, and if
possible a field that had grown cab
bage last year should be selected. He
must also agree to keep record of
the yield of both the resistant and the
commercial seed and to permit the
public to visit the plots.
Applications for these demonstra-
lions should be made to the County
Agent or to the Director of the Elk
tension Service, College Park, Md.

IMPROVING MECHANICAL coNDI.
TON OF SOIL.

Green manure crops improve the
mechanical condition of soils by in
creasing the content of organic mat
ter or humus. They give land good
texture and put it in good heart or as
farmers often say, make the soil mel.
low, loose, friable, porous and easy to
work, and will prevent its teaching,
forming clods and becoming lumpy.
The organic matter equaliBes the wa
ter holding capacity of soils.
The use of deep rooted crops will
open up the subsoil to the action Of
air, water and earbonic acid. Increas-
ing the amount Of vegetable matter or
humus in soils will prevent the wash
ing or outlying Of land
The use Of cover crops will also pre-
vent much loss and injury from wash
ing and from wind.
They are also helpful in smothering
out and clearing land Of weeds.

Plant lice (aphids) attack every
growing crop, but the insects are so
small and their attacks so insidious
hat they are usually overlooked until
most of the damage is done Curling
If leaves and the whiting of terminal
caves and shoots is generally indi-
cative of plant lice infestations.
Tobacco extracts must be counted
upon as the best summer contract
sprays for general use on sucking in
sects, such as orchard and truck crop
plant lice, whose control offers one of
the greatest problems with which the
growers have to contend.
There are three orchard plant lice
hat are of major Importance to Mary
land; namely, the green aphis, which
Usually infest new growth rather late
IN the season; the rosy apple aphis,
so called because of its reddish hue,
which infest fruit buds, and the oat
aphis, which is usually found around
he swelling buds and which appears
before either of the others. The
rapidity with which these pests multi
ply necessitates prompt measures for
their suppression.
Orchards that are sprayed extreme
~ late in the spring are usually kept
practically free of the oat and rosy
aphis by this dormant spray, because
there are usually sufficient warm days
in the spring to hatch aphis eggs be-
fore it is too late to spray. Spraying
in the spring as late as practical is
recommended. If late lime sulphur
applications are not practical, the
grower should use a separate spray of
Black Leaf 40" at the rate of three
quarters Of pint to 100 gallons of
water, to which has been added three
fifths of a pound Of soap. This mix
ture will cost about S115 per 100 gal
Ions. This should be applied when the
aphids have clustered on the expanded
buds If later applications are neces-
sary, due to the later Matching Of eggs
of the rosy and green aphids, the
Black Leaf 40" may be combined with
the codling moth spray, but soap
should be omitted in lime sulphur
combinations as it forms an insoluble
soap that will clog the nozzles.

Control.

The most effective means Of control
is cutting out all dead and diseased
wood. Oftentimes single limb of a
good tree is attacked; in such case,
the whole limb should be removed and
burned. Slightly affected trees should
be literally fortified,
The use of a thick limesulphur solu.
ton painted over the hoies will serve
to control the pest; Also, kerosene
emulsion soaked into the holes, will
kill the insect, but usually the best
treatment is the removal of attacked
parts. Clean culture and keeping the
trees in healthy condition Is the best
preventative of this as well as many
other similar pests.
