Observations in Pruning Apples In traveling over the County one la favorably Impressed by the way the omfrardlsls are pruning their trees. It will not be long before the old apple forest will be a thing Of the past. There are. of couiee, a few orchards where treee are so thick that the sun's rays cannot penetrate. but fortunately for the County's agricultural respect they are few

and far between.

The apple pruning demonstrations held in the past few- years have had a wide effect in getting the farmers to thin out the larger limbs from their trees. This alreates the tree and permits sunlight and spray malarial to enter to a very marked degree. but It does not allow the good Intended If the thinning process Is not carried on In the outer rim of the small side branches.

Peach Leaf Curt How Hidden Will Soon Strike While leaf-curl of peaches is now invisible It will soon come Into a visible stage when it will be Impassible to control It- Now before the buds swell It can be controlled by a single thorough application of lime sulfur solution diluted with water, one part Itme-eulfur to nine parts water. If spraying Is delayed until after the peach leaves break from the bnda. no amount of spraying will control It. Calcium caseinate, the new spreader and sticker, if added at the rate of one-half pound to fifty gallons of the spray material will be a help In making the spray stick to the branches.

storage seed came up 98% but the cellar kept Superbas catne up less

than 60%.

Other men who have tried out the cold storage plant for saving ths strength In their seed are of the same opinion that It pays big to work for a perfect stand. For year* Cape May County has raised both early and late crop potatoes. but owing to the usual hot and dry weather of late potato planting season the farmer always runs a considerable risk In getting his late potatoes up through the ground. Why not cut down on all risks and chances possible? Also make It . _ slble to plant some of the desirable white skinned, shallow eyed potatoes that you are now afraid to plant because they cannot be trusted to oome through the ground. The Superba and a I'cal strain of white potato, known locally as ths Compton potato. can be planted with safety if the ed Is put In cold storage. Potatoes can be stored at Rapp's Cold Storage.
