This Is The Time To [ Spray Fruit Trees 1 —"— it Farm Demonstrator GftOs the Best " Solutions to I t* for Peach Tr;e> and Apple Trees. • [i By R. E. Lawrence. Every apple and peach orchard in}* the county should be sprayed as it G makes the fruit much larger, has a! J better flavor and will keep longer. jj Spray for Peaches. i c The most important spray foi j ? peaches, is the cuculio spray which is J 0 applied one week after the petals or i l>looms fall, to prevent the white I jj worm found in peaches and which j r causes the peach to rot. For this j H spray use eight pounds unslacked 15 rock lime, eight pound sulphur, one j pound powdered arsenate lead to fif- f tv gallons water. This mixture can L be made by placing eighgt pounds of j • lock lime in wooden vessel and pour f over it enough hot water to cover the | lime, add eight pounds sulphur and ' stir it, adding water as is needed. Dis solve the arsenate of lead in hot wa- £ ter and stir in mixture, adding [ enough water to make fifty gallons, j Calyu Spray for Apples. j The most important spray for ap- J pies is when seven eighth of the bios- [ sorns have fallen. This spray is to. [ kill the coddling moth egg laid in the |j npple at this time which worm apples t in the fall.. For this spray use three pounds i commercial dry lime sulphur to fifty j gallons water, add one pound pow- ■ dered or two pound paste arsenate ■ lead. A complete spray schedule for peach ; os or apples will be sent on request. Mother Of Hughes Lives At Tirzah The Yorkville Enquirer in “Gone But Not Forgotten,” a column de vote;! to former York people, carrier, • ojne interesting information on Hatcher Hughes, the newly-famous playwright of New York, whp is a native of Cleveland county and whose mother lives at Tirzah, S. C. The article is as follows; ‘ Hatcher Hughes, sen of MTs. M. ,T. Hughes of Tirzah. and a brother of Bratton Hughes of Rock Hill, is row a professor of dramatics at Columbia University, New York. Prof. Hughes is training much fame as a play wright end one of his plays, ‘‘Hell Bent for Heaven’ is now enjoying a big run in one of the leading thea tres of New York. It will be out on the road soon and people of this sec tion may have an opportunity to see . it in Charlotte or Columbia. This play stood second in the list of the ten worth while plays on Broadway as judged by Heywood Broun, dramatic critic of the New York World and in cidentally^ the foremost dramatic critic in the United States. Prof. Hughes’ play has also received strong praise from other leading critics. The dramatic artist of the New York Herald wrote recently: “one cannot aftord to miss it.’ The play deals with life in the Carolina mountain.-. Prof. Hughes is a graduate of the Univers ity of North Carolina in the class of 1W7 and his friends and former ac quaintances in this section will be pleased to learn of his success in his chosen field.” UNIVERSITY’S DINING HALL HIT BY A BLAZE Swam hall the University’s dining emporium, where 600 students were hoarding, was practically destroyed by fire of unknown origin early Thursday morning. The damage is es timated at 525,000, mostly covered by insurance. The kitehefi and all its valuable equipment, including a large rangt^ worth $3,000, were completely destroy ed and the flames from the furnace room made their way underneath the floor of the main building and burst through in o number of places. Fire men were forced to tear ifp large sec tions of the floor before they could ex tinguish the blase. Treat Sweet Potatoes. (Extension Service.) All sweet potatoes should be treat ed with corrosive sublimate before bedding to prevent black rot which destroys so many sweet potatoes in the county each year. Soak seed in solution of one ounce corrosive suhlimale to eight gallons watm- for ten minutes. The Potatoes should then be dried and bedded and should then be sonkc 1 in a wooden vessel as the so lution will corroe metal containers. Pare should be taken not to eat or feed any of the potatoes after being treated. OUR PROGRESSIVE I PIEDMONT SECTION % * “North Carolina’s situation, mid south, gives it a peculiar advantage \n tite truck farming business. Its season is earlier than the north, and later than the far south. Thus there is a double market. The even distri bution of rainfall throughout the year in the Piedmont region makes truck farming and poultry raising unusually safe and excess of demand over supply makes it unusually pro fitable. Good roads reduce transpor tation expenses in supplying nearby marke's.’’—Ch R .Barth, in the Greens boro Daily News.
