BY ARTHUR SEARS HENNING.
Omaha lee Leased Wire.

Washington, March is.-Great
Britain has decided TO take no
chances OIL the decree OF the arms
conference which bans the use OF
poison gas in war Even il it should
become recognized international
law in time England pereeives the
possibility, il not probability, OF its
violation in time OF war and intends
10 be prepared for contingencies.
Despite the sweeping condemna-
ton OF poison gas by the arms con-
ference. signed by representatives OF
tho five leading world powers, Great
Britain will continue without cur
tailment her experimentation and re-
search in chemical warfare, It was
learned in an authoritative quarter
today.
A commission of British experts
now in the United States is charg-
cd with the duty OF investigating
American methods for producing
noSious gases, with a view TO incor-
porating into the British service any
improvements which may be discov-
cred. The Investigations Of this
commission, which is headed by Col.
NJ. /. Wilkinson of the British
army, will include both industrial
aud military plants. Permission for
the visitors to inspect Edgewood,
the army gas center, as well as sew
cral other army camps and posts,
has already been granted by the
War department.
Nothing Will Be Secret.
According TO American army Of
ficials nothing will be kept secret
from the Britishers and Capt. J. D.
Pratt, formerly of the famous Cor
don highlanders and now special
ist in the British chemical warfare
service. is expected to spend con-
siderable period of time at Edge
wood in order to acquaint himself
thoroughly with the American meth
ods both for the manufacture OF gas
and for defense against it.
The commission also has been
authorized to visit the Aberdeen,
(Md.) proving grounds. the infan-
try school at Camp Benning, and
the army establishment at Fort Sill,
Okl. 1t is understood that the vis-
iting officers will make reports to
their government on chemical war
fare, tanks, infantry and artillery.
American gas experts are thor
oughly in sympathy with the British
point of view regarding chemical
warfare. The attitude of the Brit
ish subcommittee on chemical war
fare. according to the British officers,
is that the only defense against
poison gas is preparedness. At Por-
ton, eight miles from Salisbury, in
England, the government has es-
tablished a large experimental sta
tion. with staff of experts drawn
from the army, the navy and from
civil life, and this corps OF experts
will devote its entire attention to
the development of noxious gases
and to devising projections against
them. .

new SPRAYING
SCHEDULESOUT
Peach Insect Laboratory At Fort
Valley Issues Valuable
Bulletin

The government and state labora-
tory at Fort Valley has just issued
the following spraying and busting
schedules for use on peaches in Geor-
gia during the 1922 season. These
schedules are based on the extensive
field experiments and studies con
Quoted at Fort Valley last year and
if they are closely followed especial
~ as to the time Of making each
application very efficient control of
the curculio, brown rot, and scab
should be attained.
Liquid Schedule.
First ApplicatiOn-W When seventy
five per cent Of the petals (pink part
of flower) have fallen use one pound
Of powdered arsenate Of lead, plus
lime water from three pounds of un-
slaked lime, to each fifty gallons
Of water.
Second Application-When caly-
ces, or "shucks" are being forced
off the small peaches, which usually
occurs about ten days after the pet
ais fall, use the same materials as
recommended for the first applica-
ton.
Third Application.-Two weeks af-
ter the second application, or about
four weeks after the petals have
fallen use one pound of powdered
afsenate Of lead to each 80 gallons
of $3.50 self-boiled lime-suphur.
Fourth Application.-Four weeks
before each variety is due to ripen
use the same materials as recon-
mended for the third application.
Dust Schedule.
II dust is used instead of the
liquid, the eighty per cent sulphur,
five per cent ar8enate of lead, and
fifteen per cent hydrated lime formu
la IS recommended for all appIica-
tons. Give four busting as follows:
first, Immediately after the petals
fall; second, when the calyees or
"shucks" are shedding; third, two
weeks after the second busting; and
fourth, four weeks before each va
rlety is due to ripen.
Early Varieties.
Early varieties should be SPRAYED
or busted only three times, using the
FIRST, second and fourth applications
as noted in above schedules.
Success Depends on Thoroushness
Curculio and brown rot must be
controlled at very definite times, and
spraying or busting at other times
viii not bring desired results. Grow
ers should make an effort to apply
each application to the entire acreage
within a few days. If the water sup
ply is far distant from the orchard,
or if there are not sufficient spray
outfits to handle the acreage within
few days, much time can be saved
by hauling the water and spray ma
terials to the spray outfits in the or
ohard. II this is done, the spray
tanks can be refilled at any place
in the orchard when the spray gives
out. Where the spraying is left al
most entirely TO negro laborers, as
is the case in most sections Of the
Georgia peach belt, the proper super
vision should be on hand at all times
to see that the operation is thor
oughly performed. The Importance of
making the spray or dust application
this season at just the exact time,
with special attention to thorough
ness, cannot be too strongly en-
| nh sized
