IF the visible supply of long staple cotton as compared with that of a year ago may be regarded asa basis Tor prices, the outlook for the farmers or the Salt River valley this year is flatterinS one. The chief supply or that grade of cotton comes from Egypt. The present visible supply at Alexandria is 144,OO0 bales, against 4o6,o bales last year, and 330.00 bales in 1918.
 As to the price prospect. the New beuIord Standard has the following:

BILE saving that would result from the
discontinuance of the record. Mr..
Beene gave the cost for 1917 as
1901, 790.S8 and for 1918 as $751;
$40.
Cornelius Ford, the public printer,
was asked for an explanation of the
high figure in 1917, but confessed his
ignorance unless it happened that
Congress "did more talking" that
year. Mr.. Ford said that in 1917,
Congress was in session $50 days; in
1918, 307 days, and in 1919, 279
days.
The printed pages in the Record
for these years were 625, 511 1854 in
1917; 563, 672,587 in 1918; and 455,-
130,450 in 1919. The cost of paper
has increased greatly within the past
three years, but the use Of lighter
and less expensive quality has helped
reduce the aggregate cost of the pa

was $4,000 as compared with 1852,
600 in 1918 and 100000 in 1917.

HOW TOCONTROL
ROT In PEACHES
State Entomologist Is
sues Special Bulletin
On Condition

ATLANTA, July 29.-Numerous
inquiries having reached State Ento-
mologist A. c. Lewis as to why the
curculio and brown rot have been
so destructive this year to the peach
crop, the department has just issued
Circular No. 81, by Assistant Ento-
mologist Chase. giving review of
conditions affecting the crop in 1920.
This bulletin sets forth the follow
ing facts regarding the 1920 crop:
l. An unusually large number of
curculio developed from infested
peaches in 1919, and a large percent
age of these survived the winter The
number of beetles entering winter
quarters could be greatly reduced by
picking up all of the infested peaches
and destroying them before the
worms emerge and enter the ground.
2. The more curculio present, the
more brown rot will develop, if
weather conditions are favorable for
its growth and spread.
3. With luxuriant growth and fol-
iage, brown rot will develop more
rapidly On trees of this class it
would be perhaps better, from the
brown rot standpoint, if no nitrogen
Gus fertilizer were used on these
trees next year.
A. Pruning the trees to give an
open form of head will materially aid
in controlling brown rot. Densely
headed trees shut out sunshine, which
is one of the best fungicides we
have.
Careless spraying has helped bring
about present conditions. Sometimes
spraying is only half done. and not
at the proper time to secure best re-
suits. It is much more difficult to-
spray in summer when leaves are on
the trees. Spraying should be care
fully and thoroughly done.
What The Circular Shows.
The new circular shows that the
steps which should be taken, in the
order named, are as follows:
/. Remove all peaches left in orch
ard after each variety is harvested, so
as to insure destruction OF the cur,
Sculio larvae they contain. Some. gooo
may be obtained now, though 1t is zoo
later to adopt this method except Tor
the later varieties. This should De
done every year, with each variety
as harvested.
2. Cultivate at once after gather

harrows, to break up the pupal cases
in the soil. ,oa houo
