That you can "Hooverize" we call your atten tion to the following items, among the many, we have, that will help through quality as well as price. For the "Brighten up Campaign" use nothing but Sherwin Williams paints and finishes. Nothing better, but little as good. For that car use only "Michelin" tires and tubes sold on quality basis only. That means more dol lars in your pocket book and less expense account at the end of the year. And don't forget that coat of "Effecto" will add much to the appearance of the car also, Now is the time to get ready for the coming spring. A pint will give a Ford one coat.

SPRAY FIRST GOOD DAY Already Pretty Late in ' Season to Accomplish Desired Results Use lime and Blue Stone . Solution 5-5-50. ; , In a circular toeing sent out to fruit growers the country inspector has ihe following to say concerning peach leaf curl, a disease that is universal in orchards: This disease very seriously injur ed the peach orchards ot Douglas county last .year. The loss waH so severe that many growers became discouraged and chopped down then- trees. This is unnecessary because peach leaf curl can be controlled pro viding the nature of the disease Is understood and the proper spray ap ulied early and thorouguiy. The spores of this fungus winter over on (...i. oark anu particularly on the buds o.. the peach tree. They are there now and will quickly germin ate on the tissues of the tips of the new leaves as the buds swell and op en. Once established in the leaf no spray can reach it that does not kill the leaf itself. It quickly spreads in the tissues causing an abnormal cell growth to. take place resulting in the misshapen, distorted, thickened leaf .which everyone recognizes as peach leaf curl. When the mycel ium of the fungus has completed Its growth and matured It begins to pro duce its fruiting vodles on the out side . of the leaf from whence the countless spores Issue to Infect the orchard next spring again nearly nine months ahead. . When the spores are matured the leaves drop, taking with them the loss of a crop of peaches and and a year's growth of the tree, and In extreme cases causing the death of young trees. A new late crop of leaves is usually formed. Complete control of this disease has been secured by spraying as early as November, but January or early in February is generally advised be cause, the pruning is. usually finish ed by: then and it is easier to distin guish the buds. The prunings should be burned before the buds open. Bordeaux 5-6-50 is recommended in this county because many growers reported poor ,results with lime-sulphur last season. To mix 60 gallons dissolve five pounds of blue vltrol or copper sulphate as it is chemically known, in 25 gollons of water, by sus pending in a sack near the top of the liquid. Slack five pounds of lime and add 25 gallons of water, keeping it in a separate barrel . from the blue vltrol. Pout the copper sul phate into the spray tank and start' the agitator as the lime is added or else pour the two. solutions in to gether. For large quantities a stock solution may be made, using a pound to a -gallon, 1. e. intone barrel dis solve. 50 pounds of copper sulphate and in another the 50 pounds of lime. To use take five pounds from each barrel for each 50 gallons of diluted spray. If lime sulphur is used the 1 to 15 strength is recommended. Spray immediately; not 2 or 3 weeks hence, but on the first good day, if this disease is to be controlled this year. This is important as the buds are dangerously close to the In fection efage. Spray thoroughly, cov. ering every particle of the tree sur face laying special stress on the buds. Wet all sides ot every twig Remember Uncle Sam aeds those peaches this year.

This sum he will be allowed to pay on In stallments of $10 per month, owing to the impecunious condition that he is in. , ; The case grew out ot Mr. Zigler disobeying instructions given by Conductor Patrick in regard to his invasion of the tourist car in dis posing of his' wares after the berths .were being made up, in direct viola tion 6T the company's rules.
