THE PEACH CROP. 
Regarding the peach crop recent reports from the south to 
the American Agriculturist indicate that a very large propor¬ 
tion of the buds of all varieties have been killed in northern 
Georgia orchards. In the Fort Valley section in central Georgia 
experts estimate that about fifty per cent, of all varieties bear¬ 
ing before Elberta have been destroyed and only about forty 
per cent, of Elbertas remained alive March 15. In South 
Georgia there is a sprinkling of fruit buds which if they ma¬ 
ture will make a fairly good crop. Injury seems not to have 
been so great in southern Georgia as in the northern part of 
the state.

JOHN A.5ALZER SEED GU*®* 
IN THE NURSERY ROW. 
Special features make the implement shown above 
particularly adapted to the nurseryman's use. The 
spring teeth can be used for deep or shallow cultiva¬ 
tion, thoroughly pulverizing the soil and preserving 
the moisture; they can be set at any desired angle, giv¬ 
ing them the necessary “suction” to force them into 
the hardest soil. 
THE REED 
PIVOT AXLE CULTIVATOR 
is under instant control of the foot. Slight pressure 
throws either wheel and its gang to right or left. If a 
rigid axle cultivator is desired you have it by simply 
removing a bolt and gangs will swing independently. 
A model for ease of handling and thorough cultiva¬ 
tion under all conditions. 
Agents Wanted in all New Territory.
