 Milwaukee, June, 1908. 



The Indian summer has been excep- 

 tionally favorable for autumn planting 

 operations. 



W. H. Von Bayer, of the United 

 States Forestry Departpieut, is making 

 preparations to establish an extensive 

 nursery for foirest trees just outside' of 

 Chatham, Mich. Several species of pine 

 and spruce will be propagated, and the 

 first lot of ?,000,000 seedling trees will 

 be used for reforesting some of the 

 ■ sandy soils near Coalwood, in that county. 



R. A. Jones, proprietor of the River- 

 side nursery in Spokane, spent a pcfrtidn 

 of last week looking ovei the prospects 

 for a nursery in the vicinity of Brewster, 

 Wash. He was well pleased with the 

 outlook and selected 100 acres of land on 

 the Riverview acreage, below town, for 

 the site of his new enterprise. It is esti- 

 mated that 1,000 acres of fruit-treeff will 

 be set out in the vicinity of Brewster 

 next spring. 



HALE'S INTERESTS. 



The annual stockholders' meeting of 

 the Chattooga County Fruit Tree Co., 

 at Summerville, Ga., was held in Chatta- 

 nooga, Tenn., November 7. Postmaster 

 '' J. C. Hale, of Winchester, was re- 

 elected president ; F. S. Carter, of Sweet- 

 water, -vice-president ; Ed W. Sturdivant, 

 of Summerville, general manager, and 

 J. E. Ram£iey, of Chattanooga, secre- 

 tary and treasurer. >• 



There are about twenty stockholders 

 m the company, but only ten were pres- 

 ent. The company has at Summerville, 

 Qa., an orchard 6f 3,000 acres and be- 

 tween 200,000 and 300,000 Alberta peach 

 trees bearing peaches. J. C. HaJe is 

 proprietor of the Tennessee Wholesale 

 Nurseries, one of the largest peach tree 

 nurseries in the world. Besides, ho

 chard out seven miles from Winchester, 

 near Tullahoma. Mr. Hale is a wealthy 

 man and is one of the most influential 

 citizens of Franklin county. He is a 

 man who has worked himself up step 

 by step until today he is one of the best 

 business men in this section of the state. 



SAN JOSE SCALE. 



Thrt'e are now a number of remedies 

 on the market for San Jose scale. One 

 I have tried with good results is Scale- 

 cide, manufactured by the B. G. Pratt 

 Mfg. Co. This is a soluble petroleum- 

 like oil which, when added to twenty 

 times its bulk of water and sprayed 

 thoroughly through a Vermorel or other 

 nozzle, kills the scale without injuring 

 the tree. There are several other simi- 

 lar insecticides now on the market. 



The sovereign remedy for San Jose 

 scale until recently has been the lime, 

 sulphur and salt wash. The proportions 

 of the various ingredients are: Stone 

 lime, fifteen to thirty pounds; flowers of 

 sulphur, fifteen pounds ; salt, ■ fifteen 

 pounds ; water, fifty gallons. Slake the 

 lime in a small quantity of hot wa^, 

 gradually adding the sulphur and fbor- 

 oughly mixing it. Dilute this mixture

with twelve gallons of water and boil in 

 an iron kettle or cook by steam in a cov- 

 ered tank for one and a half hours. 

 Then add the salt, boiling half an hour 

 longer. Fill up the vessel to the required 

 tifty gallons. If cooked by steam the 

 wash is more easily prepared and better 

 made. The liquid requires straining 

 through a fine mesh before being ap- 

 plied and must always be sprayed on 

 the trees while hot. The best time to 

 spray is in spring, just as the buds begin 

 to swell. Every branch and twig must 

 be well coated. 



The lime, sulphur and salt wash is 

 troublesome to make and disagreeable to 

 apply. If one of the petroleum reme- 

 dies can not "be procured readily I would
