IS not 50
CRAZY NOW
Appleton Youth Buys Full Blood Stock
Results Prove His Sound
Judgment.

Paying such prices for young stock
that his father believed him unbalanced,
led Carl Petrick Of Appleton to lose his
farm and credit at the banks because
OF his fathers orders according to a
story brought by A. J. Barkey from
the pure bred consignment sale held
there last week The thirteen head of
Holsteins that gave Petrick junior the
reputation of being insane because he
paid two or three hundred dollars each
for them as calves brought $1,000 at
the sale.
According to the story told by the
auctioneer at the sale, the elder Petrick
had turned the farm over to his son to
run. When the son began buying cat
tie and even young calves at prices
around 5000 to $500 each, his father
was sure his offspring had become I'M
balanced and took the farm away from
him. It is said that he went to the
banks and told them not to extend
credit as the boy was unbalanced and
not responsible Saturday his thirteen
head Of cattle brought him enough to
pay for his investment many times
over and pay for the feed he had vast
ed on the scrubs left him by his father.
This little episode was an eye opener
to all buyers at the sale and points out
the value Of specializing in a good
strain of pure breds for money making.
Reports has it that Dad took back
all he said and no longer believes that
his son is the crazy member of the
family Wheaton Gazette Reporter.

Vegetables for the Summer Garden

v
We would like to suggest to those
interested in a supply of fresh vege-
tables during the summer the neces-
sity Of preparing now fer this pur-
pose.
Egg plant AID pepper started in
tAe spring, according to Major w. l..
Floyd, head of The horticultural de-
partment of the Agricultural College,
may. by cultivation and the taking
off of the fruit rs i reaches the prop
er size, be made to bear thruout the
summer and fall.
For snap beans desirable variety
is the old Kentucky Wonder. They
should be planted in rows about 4
feet apart and 4 trellis MADE so the
vines Cat develop sufficiently to give
a desirable yield. By keeping up
cu,tiya ion and adding 4 little COM
mercial fertilizer from time to time
this crop will. bear nearly all sum-
mer. The beans should be kept pick
ed as soon as they reach the snap
stage. Ii allowed t. devclC.> to full
size INC viED will die.
Buttcl-beans may also be grown.
The same rule holds with them as
with the snaD beans, but they viii
nave to be allowed to develop in the
pod, but should be clicked in the
green stage. To avoid any of the
pc'3 being empty wood ashes from
the stove should be scattered broad
cast and mixed with the coil from
time tC time.
Okra will produce pods turnout
the summer if the pods are cut off as
thcy develop.
For green's, Swiss Chard end New
Zealand Spinach grow we'll in most
Florida soils during the summer
months. In August and early Sep
TENDER mustard and turnips may be
st2rSd, where irrigation can be sup
piled.

Rust Mites In Citrus Groves.

Rust mites are beginning to ap-
pear in the citrus groves of the state,
especially where no spraying has
been done this spring. The heavy
rains in some sections have done a
great deal toward controlling this in
sect.
1t would be a good idea for the
grower to keep on the lookout for
this pest and as soon as it appears
remedial measures should be taken.
According to j. R. Watson, state
experiment station, where groves
have not been sprayed with oil emul-
sions this spray may be used for the
whi.p fly and scale insects. Some
growers mix in some soluble sulphur
and get the rust mite with the one
spraying. If the grove has already
been sprayed for the scale and white
fly the proper spray to use for the
rust mite is lime-sulphur, one par
to seventy parts of water.

Extension Division u. of +.
WhiteAy Fungus for Distribution.

The chronological Department, of
the State Plant Board, now has ready
for distribution a supply of the Red
Aschersonia and the Yellow Ascher-
sonia. These two fungi are natural
enemies of the Common and the
Cloudy-Winged Whiteflies of citrus.
A culture. which is the amount of
fungus that can be readily grown in
a wide-mouthed pint bottle, is suf-
ficient 10 treat one acre of grove.
These pure cultures are to be pre-
ferred to the fungus obtained on
leaves, because by their use there is
no danger of getting any other dis
ease in the grove. Directions for ap-
plying fungus accompany each ship
ment. The price is rs cents per cul-
ture, approximately the cost of pro-
duction.
DR.. Berger, entomologist, says: In
localities where some of the Cloudy
Winged Whitehy is present CIR where
it Is the only species, we recommend
using some of the Yellow Ascher-
son IS well as the Red. To deter
mine whether the Cloudy-Winged
species is present, | would urge that
all growers ordering fungus or max
ing inquiry. send us 20 or 80 leaves,
collected at random from the worst
infected trees, for examination.
Growers are also expected to re-
nit WITH each order. Orders not ac-
companied by remittance wi. be sent
