SAVING THE PEACH CROP. 



For years the peach brown rot has 

 been recognized as a most disastrous 

 disease of stone fruits. This is a 

 fungous disease, and it is widespread, 

 and very destructive to the peach 

 crop. The loss which it inflicts on 

 peach growers will easily average 

 $5,000,000 yearly. The loss to the 

 peach crop of Georgia alone is esti- 

 mated at $1,000,000 a year. 



Much work has been done with a 

 view to discovering a satisfactory 

 remedy for this trouble. Spraying 

 with diluted Bordeaux mixture has 

 been most commonly recommended, 

 but its injury to the foliage has made 

 it unsatisfactory, since the remedy 

 must be applied during the growing 

 season. 



The peach scab (often called 

 "black spot") is another disease 

 which seriously affects the peach crop 

 in all sections east of the Rocky 

 Mountains, although not causing such 

 serious losses as brown rot. 



As the result of experimental work 

 by the U. S. Department of Agri- 

 culture, a cheap and simple remedy 

 for this disease has been found in 

 the self-boiled lime-sulphur wash. 

 This can be applied during the grow- 

 ing season with very little danger of 

 injuring the fruit or foliage, and it is 

 very effective. Furthermore, by mix- 

 ing arsenate of lead with the fungi- 

 cide, the curculic can be destroyed at 

 the same time. 



The department has just issued a 

 bulletin describing the preparation 

 and use of the remedy. This publica- 

 tion will be of great interest to peach 

 growers in all sections.

The Amazing "DETROIT" 



Detroit Eniiu Work*. Ill Bdknw An.. Detroit, Hick. 



Easier to Operate thanAny Other Car 



YOU will not only find the I H C auto buggy the easiest to drive, but 

 it is so simple and easy to operate that your wife and children can 

 use it with perfect safety. If you need to go to town or visit a 

 neighbor it is always ready. No time is lost in hitching up. 



The I H C Auto Buggy 



will travel any road over hills, through mud, snow, etc., at 1 to 20 miles an 

 hour. The large wheels protect you from jars when going over rocks, clods and 

 bumps. The solid rubber tires make punctures "blow-outs" and the resulting 

 delays impossible. They do not flatten out and loosen the dirt and gravel like 

 the inflated tires do. It's the "suction" tire cars that are doing nine-tenths of the 

 damage to the roads. You can use an I H C buggy when you would not dare to 

 take a horse out. It is never affected by the weather and it never gets tired. 



For Business or Pleasure 



It Is the most sensible, serviceable vehicle. If your wife and children want to go 

 to town or on a pleasure trip it doesn't mean taking a team from the work in the 

 field if you own an I H C auto buggy. The International auto wagon has the 

 same engine construction as the auto buggy. It will meet your requirements for 

 a light delivery wagon. The full elliptic springs (36 inches long by 1 3-8 inches 

 wide) and the long wheel base make it easy running and give it a stylish appear- 

 ance. See your local dealer or write the International Harvester Company of 

 America at nearest branch house for further information
