AND VARIOUS OTHER SECtlONS:

The summer school at Brevard In
stitute opened Tuesday, Jpne 14,
with an encoura^ng enrollmeht.
On Wednesday, with the enroll
ment still incomplete, there were 57
teachers enrolled for work in the ed
ucation department, 40 students in
the academic department alone, one
in bookkeeping, four in shorthand,
aiia l^x in typewriting. Students
were at that time continually arriv
ing, and more still were expected.
The prospects were reported as very
good, and this year’s outlook prom
ises a session comparing quite fav
orably with any in the history of
the school.
L. B. Haynes of Uhringstone, Ala.,
is president of the sommer school,
and is one of the instructors in the
academic department. In this de
partment the other instructors are
0. H. Orr of Brevard Institute^ Miss
Lucile Smith of Columbus, Ga., and
Miss Mary Powers of Meridian, Miss.
Mr. Haynes has l>een ^n (charge of the
summer school for a number of years
and is quite well known here as a
summer resident. Miss Rowers was
also among the forroer instructors
in this school.

SFRAYING DIRECTIONS GIVEN:
FOR FOTi^TOES AND TOMATOES i
(By J. W. Lindley).
Farmers and gardeners who have
not already done so, should arrange
for spraying th*eir tomatoes and po
tatoes at once. The following for
mula is allrfght for either. Four
pound unslacked lime, or eight lbs.
slacked.
Four lbs bluestone (copper sul
phate. 50 gallons water.
Dissolve bluestone and slacked
lime in separate containers, theft
pour together when reader to use. The
two solutions should be kept separat
ely until ready to use^ as it is unfit
for uses' 24 hours after it has been
mixed. Bluestone should be dis
solved in either wooden 6r clay con
tainers, as it will act on tin or gal
vanize ware.
A good way for making Bordeaux
is to make a concentrated solution of
both lime and bluestone, using one
pound material to each gallon of
water, keeping the two solutions sep
arate until ready for use. Then use
1 quart of lime solution and 1 quart
of luestone to make 3 gallons spray
material. The lime and bluestone
solutions will keep indefinitely if
kept separately.
If leaf eating insects are present,
use 1 1-2 lbs. arsenate of lead to each
50 gal. spray material.
In order to control blight, it is es
sential to do thorough work, cover
ing both lower and upper surface of
the leaves, and in order to do this a
small pressure tank sprayer should
be used. The operation should be
repeated every 10 days to 2 weeks.
Properly sprayed potato plants will
grow and remain green from 2 to 4
weeks longer, and the yield increased
from 20 to 50 per cent, and tomatoes

there were some changes. Fred

man, play«d third base, Mackey, an
other new, man, played center field,
and an eiMjsely new pitcher, John

mound. 'Muller Albert, who had
done some Ifine work in previous gam
