-T h e State Horticulturist,
Mr. Niswonger, has the follow
- inir to aav in regards to spray
ing the apple. The period of
-the orchard season, when the
insects and diseases appear, is
-approaching. Have you the
spray outfit oiled up, spray hose
-and nozzles cleaned, and spray
materials ready to start the
.nests at the "zero hour;?" If
-ao, fight and fight hard and tho
roughly as follows:
, First charge:
As green tips of leaves are
.-appearing cover with a fine
mist all parts of the tree with
Erne pulphur solution (liquid
6 1-2 Kallons or powder 15 lbs.
to 50 eallons of water). .This
kills San Jose Scale, apple scab
-and many of the aphids.
Second Charge:
As the fruit buds are showing,
pink, spray again with lime sul-
jihur, (liquid 5 quarts or pow
der 3 lbs., to 50 gallons of wa
ter with 1-2 pint of nScjotine
sulphate added). This kills
the apple scab and aphids al

ground under and beyond th

the amount according to the
size 0f the tree if the trunk
0f a ree with a large top is six

number of pounds used is equal
to j2 the diameter of the
trunk. Nitrogenous fertilizers
strengthen the fruit buds, give
a better set, make tree growth
while it is bearing fruit and will
pay for more frost insurance
than orchard heaters.

is in position to feed out a drove
of hogs, be it small or large,

the figures and to help them to
see that the hogs are fed prop

BABY TEETH
A patient in a dentist's office said,
"Doctor, I don't see why I have so
much trouble with n.y teeth, I think I
have been as carefuv. and as faithful
for the past fifteen years about keep
ing my mouth clean as most people
are." The dentist replied, "Yes, I
see vou have been but it ' was t
first fifteen years and not the la:
fifteen that caused your trouble."
The baby teeth act as pathfinders
for the permanent teeth, and guide
the second teeth into their proper
placet. If you .Want to keep the ba
by teeth in good condition until it. is
time for them to come out, you must
give them the best of care. Brush
them often and always at night be
fore the little one goes to bed see that
their teeth are absolutely clean.
It is said, "a habit once formed is
hard to break," so start the habit
early of keeping the teeth clean. As
the dentist so aptly said, "it's the first
fifteen years" that count. . Early hab
its and baby teeth will determnie
most surely the amount of trouble the
teeth wil) cause in later life. ' Every
child is entitled to a square deal.
. Remember that decay, holes in the
teeth, can be prevented by keeping
the teeth clean, and remember that if
the baby teeth are kept sound until
they come out the second teeth will
come in straight and sound. -If the
second teeth are never Allowed to ac
