A fish car reached Franklin Wed nesday bringing 250,000 fry for the -waters of Macon county. Approxi mately 100,000 were unloaded at oth er stations. It is also understood that the same car contained thousands of " fish for stations in Georgia along the T. F,. Railway. Fifteen e-r twenty " people met the train at Franklin and carried away cans of fry intended for all corners of the county, excepting Highlands. Fish for this town were " unloaded at Dillard, Ga. ' Agout 25,000 rock bass, big mouth bass and bream were emptied into the waters of Lake Emory and tributary streams. Five thousand brook trout were also turned loose in the small streams near Franklin. Mr. Frank Curtis and other citizens of Franklin were responsible for this shipment, of fish for the waters near town. Other inteested citizens of the county procured fry for their respec tive sections 01 tne coumy. n s un derstood that the streams of the coun- :ti -octni-lrorl oarh vpar with hundreds of thousands of fish. If the seiners and dynamiters will cease op erations Macon county will attract thdusands of visitors each year who will come to a fisherman's paradise This sport should be the means of attracting hundreds of investors to the county. As a result land values should increase. However, if the fish are settled from the streams therf will be no inducements for the fish erman. Consequently, from the stand point of dollars and cents alone each rition of the countv mieht well co- , operate in seeing that the laws in re gard to taking fish trom tne stream are strictly enforced.

C Indications are that this will be one of the best seasons for heavy apple production in several years and. growers are urged to spray the fruit thoroughly and at the right time to save this crop and pro duce a high quality of fruit. ' C. H, Brannon, extension entomolo gist at State College, is spending his time this spring with the fruit grow ers of the state and finds that if the apple crop is protected by spfaying this year, the growers should make money. Especially is it important tc spray for control of the codling moth or apple worm. Last year, he states very few of the worms were killed by sprays. The moth- emerged all dur ing the year instead of at two definite .periods and more worms entered winter quarters than usual. These worms will soon emerge as moths will lay eggs, producing worms which eat into the apples ana .win cause tremendous damage. , V "The codling moth larvae or worms r.,c0 thp wintpr in cocoons beneath the bark of apple trees under trash a in rrarks - in the erouna. in larvae transform to pupae just before blooming time. This stage lasts about one month When the moth emerges and begins to deposit eggs on the leaves. The young worms bore into the blossom end ot tne appie an .ot tn thp core. Thev feed in the ap l,nv w v -- 7 i .Uf,t Una month and leave the JIIC ouwuv w.iv -' . - fruit, cftwhng down tne trunK 10 De rrn the lifp cvcle all over again. Tr rontrnl the moth, growers must use arsenate of lead poison ap- -n tha nrnnrr time. The DOW- dered form is used and the poison is annlipd at the rate of VA pounds of arsenate to 50 gallons of water. Mix two pounds of lime with each pound of lead arsenate before adding the arsenate of lead to the spray. The most important time for the codhn? moth spray is when seven-eighths ot the blpssom petals have fallen. Thi: is very important." M B.
