STUDENTS REPRBSENT COUNTY AND VARIOUS OTHER SECtlONS: W^' 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.

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 efman of Rosman, Miss Crawford of; “prayed continuously should l>ear un- Mississippi and Miss Nannie White ‘ tji frost, of Greensboro jn department of edu— [ pays to spray. cation; Miss St. Claire de Graffen- reid, of Columbia, S.

But there were some changes. Fred Miller had b^n switched over into left "‘field and Hartman put in right field, while William Marchant, a new man, play«d third base, Mackey, an other new, man, played center field, and an eiMjsely new pitcher, John son, fromf^reer, S. G., occupied the mound. 'Muller Albert, who had done some Ifine work in previous gam es, was suffering from an injured hand, and so debarred from taking part^in the contest. The i^ef eat was one of those ac cidental ^C|^amities which happen in th^ beaft^'' ^e^lated <0f ball families. Whatev^ it was due to, the home boys are well aware of the fact that they played good ball and were not in the least bit outclassed by th^ visi tors with the ambitious title. Many visitors from Hendersonville Were on hand, and the contest in root ing was quite as fierce as, and more spectacular than, the game itselfl Another, tug^s scheduled for Fri day afternoon at Hendersonville. um DRIVE FOR EDOCAHOH RA6ES WHOLE OF QUOTA.
