was sheer nervousness, but the SER
grant thought it was sheer fright.

trembling you are for your dirty
skim"
"No, no, sergeant said he, maxi
ing u Grave aClenipC TO sIlii ms limos.

TO SAVE YOUR PEACH TREES

1t is very necessary to remove the
mounds from around your peach trees
between now and the Goth of Oct.
Pull down the dirt that you put
there during July; look for borers
in the tree trunks and use knife if
necessary to remove them. Then
apply wash from the branches down,
made as follows: Lump lime, 20 lbs,
soap (laundry or home-made), 8
pounds; sulphur, 4 pounds; water,
rs gallons. To make the wash, dis
solve the finely shaved Soap in three
gallons of hot water; make a thin
paste OF the sulphur and add to the
soap solution, and while the lime is
stacking lin half barely the solu-
tion of soap and sulphur is poured
over it and the whole gradually di-
luted to 25 gallons, which is suffici-
ent to wash 200 to 300 trees 6 to 8
years old. Apply by use of paint
brush. w. J. Tiller.

sow OATS

Oat-sowing time it at hand and
every farmer should SOW oats. Pre-
pare your land we'll, as seed is too
high to be wasted on poorly pre-
pared soil.
Every farmer should sow rye or
clover in his cotton middles for graz
ing during winter, and especially for
turning under in the spring. 1t will
greatly reduce your fertilizer bill.
This applies especially to sandy soil.
Now this is no experiment. 1t
will save your soil from washing and
will increase it's fertility. - At it
and put it in. Fertilizer will be all
out of proportion in another year.
