CLEAN UP ORC HARDS
Now is the time to clean
up, prune and bejrin spraying
orchards. Every place is doing
his where they expect ti> keep
in business and raise and sen
their fruit. We can not impress
ihis too strongly. No spraying,
no orchards, is what we will
find to be true in the next
year or two. We notice from
writers that the scale in winter
months is mkure disastrous than
in spring and summer. Hence
the necessity for early spray-
ing. Do it now or as quick as
you can get to it.
