SPRAY FOR SAN JOSE SCALE
BEST Material for Insect Is Lime-suI-
+ phur and May Be Applied in
.sa November Or December.

Orchards known to be infested with
San Jose scale should be sprayed as
isoon as the trees are defoliated by
ifrosts. The sooner this is done the
better it will be for the trees as scale
insects will soon weaken the trees so
mo marketable fruit may be expected.
The best spray material for scale
insects is ~lime-sulphur.
A good spray pump will be essen
ItiaI. It is highly desirable that the
liquid be under high pressure and
that it be we'll distributed. A power
!sprayer is best as no hand power
can be expected to equal the original.
But if only a few trees Ire to be
sprayed a hand-pOwer sprayer will an
iswer the purpose.
Spraying may be done in November
or December. Then if a second spray
ing seems desirable it may be given
in the spring or late winter before the
foliage is out.

North Carolina had a total of 1874
ginneries in 1916; of this number 2,514
were operated and $50 idle. The aver
age number of bales ginned by each of
these active establishments was 293
bales, which is less than half the num-
Der of bales ginned by the average
active ginnery in most other states.
The large number of so-called gin
neries in North Carolina are relics of
a~nte-bellum times. A goodly number
of them are truly relics and worthless.
These relics have been handed down
from the old self-contained large plan
tations of years ago. The use of these
old, out-of-date outfits at the present
time is as uneconomic as picking the
lint off by hand was when these old
establishments were Installed.
The improper ginning of cotton is
the sources of a great loss to our
farmers and 1 feel sure that they do
not appreciate the gains that would
be theirs should they have their cot
ton ginned at a modern gin.
A misconception among farmers
that is partly responsible for this con-
dition is the fact that they feel that
the lowered grade is more than offset

HEADING BACK FRUIT TREES
Necessity of Cutting Out Diseased and
Useless Branches Recognized by
Fruit Grower.

Trees are better with a little prun-
Ing annually than with an occasional
sever pruning. Some people head back
their trees quite freely each year,
while others who believe in unrestrict-
ed growth do not. Everyone recog-
nizes the necessity Of cutting out dead,
diseased and useless branches and
those which rub or interfere with each
other.
Heavy pruning tends to produce
wood. Old trees are ~rejuvenated by
severe cutting back. Weak-grOwing

APPLES FOR FAMILY TABLE
the Most Satisfactory Pieces of
Ground on Farm.

Broadly speaking, there r two
kinds of apple orchards, n run for
profit and one for the family. The
commercial orchard is a speciality re-
quiring skill, experience, and above
all, q peculiar mental bent.
As to the small family orchard, there
seems but one possible conclusion,
namely this: Every farmer should
have at least twenty-five bearing trees
of mixed varieties for his own use,
That would require just One-half an
acre and by doing the right thing at
the right time it could be made One of
the most satisfactory pieces of ground
on the whole farm.

Loss of Arabian Literature.

Arabian literature, had it not suf-
fered mutilation, would have remained
a treasure house for the scholars of
all lands. The disastrous fire at the
Eseurial, in 1871, probably inspired by
bigOtry, by which 5000 volumes, most
Iy Arabian chronicles, were destroyed.
was probably a greater loss than the
burning of the. AleXandrian library,
caused by the MOhammedanS.

BERRIES GOOD FOR ORCHARD
Place Is Not Complete Without Gen
erous Seiection-No Other Fruit
I to Replace.

An orchard is not complete without
generous selection as to kind and
varieties of berries. Without the berry
patch the orchard will hardly come
up to your expectations in supplying
fruits during the fruit-bearing season
In fact you will miss the berries and
there will be no other fruit to take
their place.

trees should be pruned more closely
than strong growers. If a trees ener-
Egies are largely devoted to growing
wood the quality and quantity of fruit
must suffer. Winter pruning stimu-
1ates wood growth, and summer prun-
ing diverts the energies to fruit bear
ing. Do the winter pruning while the
tree is dormant and the summer prun-
ling in June. 80

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
That Money RuEnboo.

II has been distinctly noticeable the
last few weeks that whenever any an
nouncenent is made with regard 70 re-
strictions on Stock Exchange loans the
market Immediately takes fright and
Prices begin depreciating. The general
market was strong early in the day. but
began TO develop weak spots when II
became known that Secretary Ely OF the
Stock Exchange had requested members
to send In schedules of their borrowings
as OF the close of business Friday night.
Shortly afterward the Association of
Stock Exchange Firms had stated that
in instances where firms thought they
had been unjustly treated their cases
would be given consideration and the
condition created II the facts justified
such action. Price fluctuations yester-
day were construed as rejecting the
gradual but steady readjustment OF quo
tations that Is expected to accompany
the replacement OF war orders with
peace business.

Surplus Reserve Low.

Tho Clearing House statement yester-
day disclosed the lowest surplus reserve
since September IL and with that excep-
ton the lowest since July 9. The fig-
ures were S2S s12.730. a decrease In one
week OF S3s,529,220. This falling of
was explained by the &33.7s0.000 loss In
cash reserve OF member banks with the
Federal Reserve Bank, accompanied by
an expansion of s4l. 100000 in deposits
against which reserve IL required. The
unexpectedly unfavorable showing was
due In part apparently to the with
drawal of S17.600.000 United States de-
posts, and the expansion in loans and
discounts OF s4S,72S.0O0. Outstanding
loans and discounts are at the top figure
since December 1. 1917, and with that
exception they are the largest ever re-
corded by the local clearing house
banks. The figure at the beginning Of
business yesterday was t4.7s9.92s. 900:
