weather and problems with sag
ging coal piles and dwindling
oil supplies, summer has liter
ally blown up in cur faces. We
didn't even miss the "long-
handles" when We changed to
summer clothes, because we
have had five consecutive days
OF open weather with daytime
temperatures ranging from "a
to "a degrees. Azaleas, weeping
cherries, crab apples and dog
wood are in iull bloom. Peaches,
have pollinated and are setting
fruit and warm season vege-
tables are being planted. 1 am
still keeping my fingers crossed
but these are the facts.
1t is surprising how quickly
sun and wind will dry out the
top few inches o. sell so don't
let your plants suffer for lack of
water. If you have spring
planted lawn, be sure to keep it
watered. Peaches should be
sprayed when all of the petals
have fallen and again as the
shucks begin to shed from the
little fruits. Use an all-purpose
peach spray, or six pounds of
wettable sulphur plus four
pounds of malathion (25 per cent
w. P.) to each 100 gallons of
water. Use The same spray for
both the petal fall and shuck
spray. Apply the first spray to
bunch grapes as soon as the
young shoots are about two in
ches long and again when they
are about IL inches long. Use
Bordeaux mixture 10th times.
For scale, on camellias. us

Sprays should contain one per

Our roses are growing nicely
and we have already sprayed
them twice-a dormant cleanup
and the first summer cover. The
combined insectic.dal and fun

are very satisfactory and easy
to use. l prefer 10 spray because
you get good coverage and the
