Major Diseases of the Apple

4ACtIOk OlSCSA5OC VA WIZ |APpAS
There are six major diseases of
the apple: the bitter rot, the apple
scab,/ the rust, the black rot, the
blight and the crown gall. All of
these do more or less damage in
our southern orchards. Unchecked,
their depredations may become
SERIOUS menace to the orchardlst,
but if they are controlled in the
manner advised below, there is no
reason why the injury caused by
many of the diseases indicated
should not be greatly minimized
and effectively held in check.
The bitter rot in its early states
produces a soft, wet, blackish, cir
cular spot on the fruit. In its later
stages it becomes dry, brown, gray
colored or black. When the spot
becomes larger it is usually some
what depressed with a shrlveled or
wrinkled surface. AS the spot gets
older small pustules begin to APP
pear near its center.
The diseased area is distinct from
the healthy tissue, and inside the
diseased area concentric rings OF
slightly different colored tissues are
usually apparent. A fruit is la
BILE to infection any time after it's
formation, and the trouble is more
serious in hot weather. AS the dis
ease advances the fruit falls from
the tree. The same trouble also
forms a rough cankerous spot on
the bark. The bitter rot fungus
passes the winter in mtlGmitd fruits
and in the cankerS on th3 larger
limbs.
In controlling this trouble Bor-
deaux mixture, 1850, should be
piled about eight weeks after the
petals fall. Two further sprayings
of the same material should be
made two or three weeks apart.
The trouble affects the fruit,
leaves and twigs and is one Of the
most serious diseases known Gil the
apple.
Scabby apples are familiar to all
fruit growers. The disease first
appears as small disColOred spots
on the surface Of the fruit. These
spots enla sc until they ave about
one-eighth of an inch in diameter
and III bad cases many spots may
unite until Il large part OF the sur
face of the fruit is covered.
The diseased tissue becomes hard
and of a dark grayish black color.
The diseased area does not grow
properly, but it frequently cracks
almost to the core. G. This disease
retards twig and wood growth
makes some of the fruit fail pre-
maturely and renders it unstable.
Some, varieties are more susceptl
BILE to it than others. Scab passes

We have often picked beans and used
them as late as October from spring
paintings.
There are various kinds of Lima
beansI In other words, the dwarf
and the climbing sorts. The dwarf
varieties require no taking and,
therefore, possess certain advan-
tages in that respect. Some Of the
beans are very large in size and
others are small. The taste Of grow
ers relative to the size and type OF
beans to produce will vary. AS
much nitrogen Is not needed with
this crop, as with some other truck
crops, a formula containing 2.5 to 8
per cent of this element will answer
very well. In other respects the
formula suggested for onions could
be used with this crop.
If lima beans are produced COM
mercially and kept free from weev1l
infestation and put up in standard
packages with a proper guarantee
back Of them there is no reason why
they should not be sold satisfactorily
in Georgia, and on the same basis as
the California product. You can pick
the beans from time to time through
out the growing season and store
them. The principal trouble in grow
ing this crop in Georgia on COM
n1ercial basis would be seeing that
the weevils do not infest the beans
and damage them before they were
placed on the market and disposed
of satisfactorily.
Irish potatoes might be kept salts
factorily for considerable periods of
time, we think, in a sweet potato
storage house. We are sure you
could hold them for say thirty to
sixty days if you protect them from
light, put them in a place that is
relatively cool and where there is
good ventilation, and dry them out
properly. To just gather a large
quantity of these potatoes while
they are soft and tender and store
them in big piles would be suicidal.
They would heat and rot. If the
amount of moisture they contain
when first dug is dried out, how
ever, they will keep satisfactorily.
We know they could be dried in
crates satisfactorily in a storage
house and kept for a reasonable
length of time. The period of dis
tributing our spring-grown Irish po'
tatoes could, therefore, be lengthen'
ed out from a few weeks to several
months.
There is no objection to your ex-
perimenting with the Jersey sweet
potato, and if you expect to use
this crop it is just as well to buy
enough seed and be sure that you
get a pure strain, There is a big
demand for Jersey sweet potatoes be-
cause a reputation has been estab-
lished for them and a sentiment in
their favor created by judicious adj
vertising. There is no reason why
Georgia grown sweet potatoes such
as the Porto Ricans should not find
satisfactory sale in large centers
such as Cincinnati and Boston. Sim
ply to ship them into the market
and take a chance, however, would
be a mistake. Some advance adver'
Using should be done and the dis
tribution Of the product in a syste'
matte and scientific way thus insur'
ed. The people in the north know
| very little about the sweet potato OF
| the south, but they can be readily
acquainted with it's merits through
| judicious publicity. .-

BANKERS Predict
BETTER BUSINESS

NEW YORK, Dec. 31.-Business
prospects for 1922 are in general
hopeful, according to statements by
prominent bankers made public to-
day by the American Bankers as
ISOLATION.
"The future of business and fl
nance in the United States is en-
couraging," said Thomas B. Nc
Adams, president Of the association.
He emphasized the Importance of
this country interesting itself in the
problems of Europe in order that
American prosperity may be main
tanned. He said that, although some
leading politicians and newspapers
opposed extending aid to Europe at
this time, future prosperity de-
pended on the way financial Amer
lea answers the call"
"The time for anxiety seems to
be entirely past and the middle of
1922 should see recovery we'll estab-
Iished," declared John G. Lonsdale,
president of the National Bank OF
Commerce, Of st. Louis. "All of the
things necessary to commercial bet
terment seem to have been set in
motion, so that 1922 should see the
beginning OF the era of our greatest
and most golden prosperity"
Prosperity among our farmers,
manufacturers and merchants Is dl-
rectly affected by the unsettled con-
| dition of finance and politics in Eu-
rope, according to J. A. House, presi-
dent of the Trust Company Division
Guardian Saving and Trust company
of Cleveland.
"This must be remedied," he add
ed. ut is apparent also that strikes
for higher wages are certainly not
In keeping with the present order
of things. Labor must bear its fair
share in future deflation."
Mr.. House emphasized the need
Of rehabilitation Of the railroads ana
said that congress should pass eqult'
able tax laws to encourage the floW
of capital through channels winch
would mean investment.
John S. Puslicher, vice president
! of the American Bankers associa'
/ ton, said the trend was towards
easier money rates and there was
nothing to indicate that this would
not continue.
"The, strongest factor in the pres
ent situation Is the growing strength
of the banks" he declared.
- at is our belief" declared r. s.
Hecht, president of the state bank
division of the American Bankers
association. "that we will not again
have real prosperity in this country
until some kind of economic restora
ton has been accomplished in Eu

tional trade worked out"

Prohibition Director
To Ask 10 Additional
Agents for Georgia

Sixteen additional federal prohlbl-
ton agents for Georgia will be re.
quested by Fred Dismuke. state di'
rector, in the report of the years
operations which will be filed next
week, it was learned Saturday.
Mr.. Dismuke will base his reqdcst
on the showing made during Decem-
Der, predicting Saturday that the re-
port now being prepared will dis
close q record number of arrests
and seizures, and he will recommend
strongly that he be given the addi-
tional men to further increase the
scope of his work.
There now are tWenty-one field
agents and four group heads in
Georgia and Mr.. Dismukes declares
that additional men are needed to
crush the illicit liquor traffic
throughout the state.
In his request MIR. Dismukes will
point out that less than a year ago
there were thirty-two prohibition
agents in Georgia. a summary re-
duction on May 20, 1921, cut the
number to nine. Ten men were re-
stored early in July and the number
remained at nineteen until Mr.. Dis
muzes took Office several months
ago, succeeding Major James A.

It is said by those in position to
know that plants developed from
sets in the vicinity of Atlanta with

Of 1917-1S. This would indicate that
the Bermuda onion set is quite re-
sistant to cold, more so than has
probably been generally thought to
be true in the past.
1t is of course true that as large

Moreover, Bermuda onions developed
from sets often have rather red

this is light straw color. inns
might lead producers sometimes to
think that the seed planted was not
