The celebration attracted good
sized crowd of people, and though
the weather was somewhat threaten

good attendance at the gathering.
George Rix gave a fine patriotic
talk in the morning from the band

warlike representations were in line,
including Corona s fire department,
the Odd Fellows. first aid and de-
tachment Of Red Cross women, and
other features. The Methodist
ladies served dinner in the lumber
shed, cafeteria style.
In the afternoon ball game was
put on, between Wilmot and Big
Stone mines, and good amusement
was furnished, but the Wilmot
players were outclassed, and the
Big Stone fellows had no trouble in
taking the game with big score.
The affair was a great success
and good thing. showing the pat
riotic spirit Of Corona.

The New Jersey experiment station
is recommending to peach growers the
trial Of substitute for self-boiled lime

ton with considerable success last sea-
son.
This new mixture is made up in the
following proportions: 8 pounds of
sulphur blowers or fine flour), 4
pounds Of hydrated lime. and III
ounces Of ground glue, dissolved in
three gallons Of water. This Is d.
luted with water to 80 gallons. 1t is

Using spray for the control Of scab and
brown rot, since 1t gave excellent re-
suits in season when weather con-
ditions were favorable for the develop
ment of both diseases. This material
seems to possess several advantages
over self-boiled lime-sulphur. The
process Of mixing is less disagreeable
than the preparation Of self-boiled
lime-sulphur and its strength when
prepared is likely to be more uniform.
This spray is recommended to peach
growers for trial in the summer spray
ing Of peaches to control scab, brown
rot and other fungous diseases.

LEAF CURL IS MOST Destructive
DISEASE AFFECTING THE PEACH TREE
Effects Of Attack May Last Over Several Years and Renders More
Subject to Attacks of Other Diseases and to Win
terkiIng-Cause and Control.

(By LEONARD r. HARTILL. Instructor
in Fruit Growing, New York State
School of Agriculture on Long Island,
Farmingdale, N. "
Peach leaf curl is more or less COM
mon in nearly all the peach growing
regions of the world. In many regions
it is probably the most destructive dis
ease affecting the peach. Heavy losses
occasioned by the disease on the Allan
tic seaboard are infreQuent, yet Occa-
sionally the damage Is severe. The
losses from leaf curl cannot be read
lily estimated. for the injury to the
fruit is usually indirect, through the
loss Of leaves and the generally i'm
paired vitality Of the trees. The eff
fects of an attack may last over sew
eral years, and undoubtedly renders
the tree more subject to the attacks Of
other diseases and to winterkilling.
The effects on the tree seem to depend
not only on the severity of the at
tack, but also on the vigor Of the tree,
its location and the character of the
succeeding winter.
Description.
Usually the disease is seen only on
the leaves and young branches, but
the flowers and young fruit are like
wise subject to attack. In the latter
case the disease often escapes atten-
ton since determinations are but slight
and the parts affected very promptly
drop from the tree. The disease when
on the leaves may be detected as soon
as the leaf buds have become slightly
unfolded. The coloring of the young
leaves is heightened and, as they unfold,
a curling and arching of the blades be-
comes prominent. AS the disease pro-
crosses the abnormally thickened, dis
torted leaves, from which the disease
takes its name, are its chief character
istics and cannot well be mistaken. The
stimulation induced by fungus within
the cells Of the leaves, causes the cells

to develop thickeneG walls and in
crease in size and numbers. The It's
sues Of the mid rib do not increase to
any extent, with the result that the
abnormal growth Of the tissues on
either side Of the midrib causes the
leaves to become puckered and curled
Since the greatest growth takes place
In the tissues toward the upper SIDE
there is tendency for the upper sur
face Of an infected leaf to be convex.
Infected foliage usually drops and so
the disease may result in complete de-
foliation Of the tree. If such is the
case the tree sets little or no fruit.
However, the tree usually leafs out
again, and by midsummer little sign
of the disease may be found.
Cause.
Peach-leaf curl Is caused by para
site fungus known as Exoascus De-
formans. The mycelium of the fun
gus makes its way among the tissues
and absorbs the juices needed for the
nutrition of the tree. 1t is spread
from tree to tree by means of spores.
These form under the surface of in
fected leaves, finally breaking through
and imparting to the surface frosted
appearance. The spores are given off
and presumably are carried over the
winter on the surfaces of twigs and bud
scales. They produce new infections
as soon as the leaf buds open in the
spring. The fungus may also be car
ried over the winter by the mycelium
in twigs that have been infected.
Control.
Spray in the spring just before the
buds swell, using bordeaux mixture
$3.50 6 pounds lime, pounds cop
per sulphate dissolved in 80 gallons of
water). 1t is essential that the spray
ing be thorough and that it be done be-
fore the buds show the least green.

COST ACCOUNTING IS
OF Big IMPORTANCE
Several Types Of Farming Were
Included in Study Made by
Agricultural College.

Complete records were kept on 10
New York state farms in 1912 and on
81 farms in 1913, cooperation with
owners being secured by the college of
agriculture which furnished the coop
orators with the results Of the &C.
counting.
The farms on which accounts We're
kept averaged slightly larger than the
average New York farm; they were
better farms and better managed than
the average farm. Several types of
farms were included in the study so
that figures were available on q num-
Der of different farm operations. The
average cost of man labor for 1912
was little over Is cents an hour; for
1913 1t was II cents an hour. Horse
labor varied from 10 cents to IS cents
per hour, the lower figures being found
on the farms doing the largest amount
of business. Purebred cattle showed n
higher cost of feed, for man labor, and
for horse labor, but they returned
more to the owners than did grade
cattle.

CONTROLLING LICE ON HOGS
Important Factor In Development Of

QSansas State Agricultural College.)
Control Of lice on hogs is an impor-
tant factor in their development. Crude
oil not only kills lice, but in addition
destroys the nits, softens the skin
and brightens the hair.
Many hog dips are on the market,
which are widely used, but the use
of crude oil gives more satisfactory
results. in the opinion of Ray Gate

in the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege. This oil may be applied by the
use Of patent hog oilers, but as rule
these are not satisfactory for they are
expensive and many do not apply the
oil in satisfactory manner.
One Of the most satisfactory meth
DDS of applying crude oil is to drive
