Linseed Oil for Pear Blight.

We have noted the remarkably
beneficial effect on pear and apple
tr, es by washing with linseed oil.
Two or three years ago, paragraph,
went the rounds of the agricultural
press to the effect iha, Mayor Ludlow
of Norfolk, Virginia, lad treated the
pear blight with remarkable success
by applying linSecd oil to the diseased
parts. That same season Mr.. W.
had tree attacked with blight, the
bark of the trunk, below the branches,
presenting tha; blackened, burnt ap-
pearance SO indicative Of what is
called "ire-blight."
Bv cutting through the bark Mr..
W. discovered that the inner bark
and sap-wood were black and appar-
emily dead. RememI criny tie oil
prescription referred TO above. Le
washed the diseased parts thoroughly
with raw linseed oil. This was in
autumn The next spring the tree
leafed out and commenced growing,
and upon cutting into the diseased
bark, be found that a new inner bark
had grown. and the tree is now alive
and hourishing.
Last summer bis trees commenced
blighting again, some Of them very
badly, aud he applied the linsecd oil
again. The 9liyht was arrested, and
the trees have put forth ,hc.r foliage
ia good condition this spring, and the
new bark under the dead exterior is
alive and apparently healthy. We
have Just called, at his request, to see
the trees, anu fpd them as reported
above.
His pears are .f aum5er Of varie-
ties. both dwarf aui standard, and
both klAds have been attacked with
he blight
Although Mr.. w. does 30. cla m
to have .u'ly demonstrated lhe fact
that lin.eed oil is an .Aiaiible remedy
for pear blight, he will he very likely
to try it again should us treea be
again attacked, and We would advise
ouy readers to do the same, anJ see
what its efiec's may be ia 'heir cases

correspondent Of the Prairie Farmer:
First dig your potatoes, and let them
lie in the sun until they are dry.
Second. have ready pit sufficiently
large to hold what potatoes you wish
to keep over. Put in the bottom Of
the pit six inches IF straw, and then
pm, in your potatoes the same as YOU
would pit Irish potatoes, and cover
them lightly with straw, and let them
stay three or four DAYS, until they go
through the sweat" then put on
mere straw and light covering Of
dirt. A. the weather gets colder,
put on more cOver-cuOugh 10 keep
them warm. | have kept my potatoes
in ,ba; way fer number of years.
and never failed. The potatoes
should not be allowed to touch the
earth. Keep your straw and chatf
tucked around the sides Of the pit.
