ORCHARDS NEED Care
Peaches and Small Fruits to Hop
Flight the Boil WeevlI.

clemson College, Dec. 22.-It has
been conclusively proved that the
soils of South Carolina are more
than ordinarily adapted to the gro"
ing of fruits, both for the home and
for markets. Under our present Doll
weeyil conditions, the home orchard
and the fruit garden must play al
even greater part in reducing tne
cost Of living than it has played mere
tofore. The amateur fruit grove
blazes the way. as 1t were, for the
larger operations in this industry; an'

The Site and Soil Selection.
It is urged that the most eare1n'
consideration, combined with the pest
Judgment, be used in selecting inc
orchard site and soil. In the nome
orchard the site is fully as important
as the soil.
The home orchard site should lie
chosen for the following points: easy
reach and protection; sufficient size TO
prevent divided paintings; situation 10
add to general attractiveness OF the
home grounds; air circulation and at.
| mospheric drainage. The soil snoulo
have good surface and subdralnage'
medium fertility and freedom from
diseased and insect-infested trees.
The commercial orchard site should
be chosen for accessibility and mar
ket outlet, community production and
good air circulation and drainage. The
soil should have drainage, fertility
and physical condition, and proved
deld trial of fruit grown.
Fruit and Variety Selection.
Careful consideration should be
given the purpose for which fruit OF
tho proposed orchard is being grown
home, local or commercial consump'
ton. In the commercial orchard both
the fruit and the varieties should bs
narrowed down to a minimum, and
greater areas planted to those best
adapted to the immediate section and
| particularly suited to the market con-
ditions.
Many orchards are unfruitful fall.
ures as a result Of unwise selection
and poor sources Of the trees and
vines. To safeguard against this,

should consult with their county ag'

ALLIES URGED TO FIX GERMAN
PREPARATION ON LOW BASIS
(Washington Herald-Public Ledger
ryice-SpeciaI Cable Dispatch.D


Paris, April %. - 1t has been
learned from an authoritative source
that the San Reno conference on
Sunday night confined -deliberation
entirely to the German question.
The informant said Premier Nitti.
supported by Premier Lloyd George,
has proposed a series of general
conversations on the execution of
the Versailles treaty. in which the
German government would be rep
resented by its chancellor"
The Italian premier came reso-
lutely forward with the project of
sending to Berlin a representative
with title of ambassador. who would
have instructions to hold out for
nothing less than the settlement of
all the clauses of disarmament and
reparations to which the Germans
have objected.
Premier Nitti proposes to fix the
number of reparations calculated at
low basis and to do away with
the commissions on reparations.
Italy's reward for making that bar
gain with Germany will be economic
advantages, chiefly in the matter of
coal from the Ruhr.
Premier Millerand was unable to
conceal the profound surprise which
such program caused him. It
must be stated that French public
opinion demands of the government
one policy and one only-that of
the execution of the treaty
