The aim of the system La to show HUCh persons in their true light, thus making it neces sary for them to pay cash, and thus reducing the losses in extending credit. There are many people who are not Intentionally slow in paying their accounts, but are neglectful, and when they understand that they must be rated they will endeavor to secure the best rating possible and will be more prompt, instead of allowing their bills to accumu late.

This may be made at home according to a detailed formula fur nished bjr the Division of Bnto moiogy of Ciemaon College upon re quest It Is not accessary to re peat It here because it has been printed in these columns several time*. With the Improvements In tbe commercial washes however, in recent years, a* well a a the reduc tion tn price, we prefer to reeorn- 1 mead tbe use of the commercial wash over the home-made wash, ! Tr.e commercial wash Is more unl- j form. It must be borne in mind. ' however, that in purchasing such a wash It should be bought from a ! tuuse of reliable standard. The wiuter wash at present costs 13 i cents per gallon In lots of 50 gal Ions or over, so that a 50 gallon barrel of eoneenlrated wash can be delivered at points in South Caro lina for between $10 and fll. These washes ^re used at the rate of one gallon of commercial wash to nine gallons of water. The water may be rain water or well water and used cold. This spray should be given just as soon as possible now as it cannot . be ap- d plied after the buds have started, ; and in that case it is practically necessary to let the trees go un treated as far as scale is concern ed until after the leaves have fall en. In badly infested orchards where one spray was applied last fall, it is well to repeat it in Feb- i ruary before the buds start, and in j applying the spray it cannot be over emphasized' that It must be applied thoroughly and every part of the tree covered. It is particularly im possible to spray ? pcaeh tree be I fore it b pruned As a p< r*c b o?* chard itnttirw Attention every ?i? . ter (i ? hf way of prnnlng. : thU flMkl' be done before the wash to [applied : The wash atone U not sufficient: it must be applied with a proper' equipment. For the spraying of fruit tree#, we discourage the tine of bucket or knapsack pumps, and we also discourage the use of ?mail barrel ptunpa. It is immate ftal what shaped pump one may prefer, bat the following essentials are necessary to a good equipment In the way of a barrel pump! A cylinder 2 1-4 to 2 1-1 inches in diameter and an air chamber hav ing a capac.ty represented by a tube 30 Inches long and 3 Inches in diameter. ThJs air chamber may hare almost any kind of shape, but lo the terraced orchards of South Carolina, it la well to pur chase a pump where the atr cham ber is down In the barrel- Thia j will prevent the pump from being top heavy and It cannot so easily bo thrown off of the wagon when mov ing across terraces or turning at the ends of the rows. One ahould purchase 25 feet of 3-ply hose, a leakeless stop-cock at the end of the hose, an extension rod of de sired length, usually six to eight feet for peach orchard made of 1-4 Inch Iron pipe with threads made at each end, and an angle noxxle which enables one to spray, even in a breeze without getting into the way of. the spray. A good barrel equipment without barrel, costs about $15. Any coal oil, whiskey or molasses barrel will do for a i spray barrel on which these pumps | can be fitted, because most pumps i have the heads adjustable, and for i a very simple barrel top anyone writ ing to the Division of Entomology will receive an Illustration as to how this can be made. With every pump there comes a paper dtejc, having a drawing showing exactly how the. hofe is to be cut to mount the pump perfectly into the barrel. The manufacturers generally charge about $3.50 for the barrel. tA. F. Conradl. Entomologist, KKt WSPAKTMKV. (4> l^tmr tmk*. ?rw? i? Tbb TcrHu>t). Washington. D.
