Added to the production of sound fruit, the output will be greatly increased by much knotty, scabby, and wormy material. In seeking high grade produce, local dealers are forced each year to handle quantities of fruit from out side the State? since quality holds first place. There is no shadow of doubt but what the North Carolina apple or peach equals that produced in any other section, providing it is cared for properly- A basket of sound fruit is worth many of culls. The fruit grower should by careful and thorough spraying make the most of the plentiful crop which nature has supplied this year. Orchard Program For June. Sow the peach orchard to cowpeas between the middle and latter part of June. N Soy beans will be found satisfac tory for the apple orchard. These crops afford an efficient means for adding fertility to the soil. About one month before the peach ripens apply spray to protect the fruit. Self -boiled lime-sulphur will be found ef fective with one pound of arsenate of lead added to each 50 gallons of spray. Bearing apple orchards should be sprayed according to spray schedule, using Bordeaux mix ture spray material with one pound of arsenate of lead ad ded to each 50 gallons of spray Green Manuring Crops In Orchard Some green manuring crop should be sown in both the ap ple and peach orchard during the latter part of June. Soy beans and cowpeas make the best manuring crops for the orchard. They add nitrogen and increase the humus con tent of soil when returned to it. Most . of the soils of the state are deficient in both. It is best to sow these summer crops about 3 12 feet apart in order that cultivation may be continued through the dry hot summer months. Hay should never be grown in the orchard as it competes too strongly with the tree water at the tiihe the1 tree needs it most, thereby neither the hay no the orchard will do as welll as they should. n THE STRAND THEATRE FRIDAY Colleen Moore in "BROKEN CHAINS" The Picture that won the 30, 000 prize given by "Chicago News" A Goldwyn Feature SATURDAY Edmund Cobb A New Western Star in "THE STING OF THE SCOR PION" MONDAY and TUESDAY STRONGHEART The Greatest Dog in the World in "Brawn Of The North" One of the Greatest of pic tures Thrills !
