ROAD BUILDING IN
FL0R|DAANDGE0RG|A
As seen BY An
.OLD:T|MER
(By d. B. Sweat.)

@,
have been very much interested
in the enthusiasm being manifested
by the people of Southern Georgia in
the question of good roads. This part
of the country is far behind South
Florida in her road building. The
citizens of this great state seem to be
just waking up to the Value Of good
roads, and when they are fully
aroused on question they usually
bring things to pass In a hurry
o Just before leaving Waycross IL
years ago today to make my home in
Florida, served on the grand jury
of this county. and for two weeks we
hammered on the subject of good
roads. AS l recall four or five of
the gentlemen on that grand jury had
caught a vision of the possibilities of
development and expansion in this
country II system of hard-surfaced
roads connected every section of the
land.
The other members of the grand
jury had not yet seen the star and
we undertook to show 1t to them.
Sandwiched in between the considc-
ration OF charges against law break
ers, and while waiting for witnesses,
we preached the gospel of good roads.
1t was our duty to pass o resolution
regarding good roads in the county of
Ware in order to secure certain legis-
lation making hard-surfaced roads a
possibility. We succeeded In passing
the resolution, convincing enough OF
the Doubling Thomases" to induce
them to vote for the measure.
would have supposed that this
county would make greater advance
ment in road building than 1t has
done, but it has been said that great
bodies move slowly" and this Is one
OF the great counties OF this great
state.
Leading out from Waycross In diff
ferent directions are roads made OF
the red clay found in the clay pits OF
this section corresponding to the
white clay of Florida used on so many
of our highways in other days and
much of it in use to this good hour
where it has not been replaced with
superior material.
Strong Sentiment for Good Roads
Something like 20 counties in South
Georgia have either voted bonds re-
Gently or will vote In the near fu
ture In order to build satisfactory
highways. In several counties the
vote has been practically unanimous
for bonds and good roads, The total
sum to be invested in road building
runs into the millions OF dollars.
This county votes on June "a for
100000 bonds for good roads and
$4,000 for schools. Charlton county
Immediately south of this county and
bordering the Florida line between
here and Jacksonville, has just voted
$4,000 of bonds to build the Dixie
Highway, and that means the early
completion of the ugly gap between
waycross and Jacksonville. which
has been temptation to many good
men to use swear words as they have
pulled over that almost impossible
piece OF road.
AS I understand it, Ware county
will build her part as soon as tht

for visit with his brother, A. ID. Moe,

citrus growers are realizing high prices
for their product this season.

he replied, but they will cost you five

merchant in southern California
charges just as high price for his
fruit as the retailer of Oregon or

Pruning Pear Trees

1t is not difficult to prune the mature
pear tree if the work has been we'll
done during the first five years. The
principles involved are largely the
same as with the apple. The aim
should be to keep the head fairly open
and prevent the tree from getting too
high and to develop new fruiting wood.
1t has often been advised to prevent
fruit spurs and short growth becoming
established on the main limbs near the
trunk for fear fire blight may gain
ready access to the heart of the tree.
This is sound advice and good insur-
ance. However, this disease has never
been serious in Hood River Valley and
possibly may never become so. If the
grower is careful to 60 over his trees
regularly in search for this disease, it
is quite likely that no harm will result
in permitting fruit spurs to grow in
the area mentioned.
Practically all old pear trees in the
valley are grown on the so-called
French root. which is quite susceptible
to fire blight in that it throws up suck
ers through which the disease gains
ready access to the roots. Such growth
should be kept down. "The practice
of cutting out water sprouts each sea.

PRUNING THE
MATURE FRUIT TREE

(By Gordon q. Brown. Hortieultur-
ist, Hood River Experiment Station
Another thought | wish to emphasize
here Is that decreased vegetation and
fruit production do not necessarily go
hand in hand. Assuming that there is
plenty of moisture present during the
growing season. the two most promi-
nent limiting factors in vegetable re-
production and fruit development are
nitrogen and carbohydrates such as
starch. sugars. etc. Now the chief
thing to keep in mind is that these two
should not only be present but es-
pecially in the right proportions. Weak
trees often have but small amount of
stored carbohydrates which. however,
is much in excess of the amount re-
quired to properly balance the very
small amount of nitrogen available.
Now, how may the right proportions
be established? Obviously by increas-
ing the nitrogen content by the use of
nitrate of soda fer example or by de-
creasing the carbohydrates stored up
by pruning. Where trees are weak and
do not possess large bearing surface,
1t would be indvisable to do much prun-
ing because by SO doing the crop would
be abnormally reduced. Better bring
the tree back to normal vigor by the
use of some nitrogenous fertilizer and
thus get the full value of all carbohy-
drates present. On the other hand,
where large bearing surface is pres.
ent and the tree in normal vgor,
moderate pruning will tend to estab-
lish the proper proportions when con-
siderable portion carrying fruit buds is
removed. Where trees are rapidly
running to wood growth, great care
should be taken to avoid excessive
pruning and at the same time avoid
nitrogenous fertilizers.
Jonathans and Wageners represent
different types of growth than that of
Newtowns and Spitenburgs. These
varieties bear not only on spurs but
also upon auxiliary buds formed on
the one year old wood. Be careful not
to head these trees back too hard be.
cause by so doing vast numbers of buds
are removed and tonnage abnormally
reduced. This is especially true with
young trees in bearing only a few
years. Thinning out exclusively may
be made use of for few years, but
eventually,of course. one must do some
heading back to keep the tree in man
ageable shape. The aim in this in
stance is not to give specific advice,
merely to suggest.

NICKELSEN BOOSTS
