BURLINGTON, VT, An,

BURLINGTON, VT, August |, 1892.
Dear ST:-l wish through the columns
of your paper to address a few words to
those of your readers who are potato grow
ers. No true blight has been seen as yet,
but Judging from experience of past years,
it may be expected at any time now. In
1889 potatoes blighted badly the last week
of July. In 1890 and again in 1891 the
weather did not favor the rapid spread of
the disease until the middle of August and
later. 1t is simply question of fav0rably
moist hot weather as to when the disease
appears this year. Spraying the vines with
Bordeaux mixture will surely keep of the
disease if done thoroughly and in season.
We found last summer that thorough APP
plicatiOn made at the time of the first APP
pearance of the disease checked its further
development. But upon ground especially
liable to the disease the safer way by far is
to spray at once now, even though no signs
of the disease are seen.
The mixture for this first application can
be made rather weak, lbs. blue vitrOl and
lbs. of freshly Stacked lime to 90 gallons
Zone barrel) of water. Dissolve the vitrol
in clean wooden tub or barrel, keeping
out all dirt. Slack the lime in another yes
sci, then, after adding water enough TO
make thin whitewash, strain this into the
vitrol solution, so as not to add any Jumps
of lime; stir thoroughly and it is ready to
use. Add Paris Green for the bugs If
needed.
This application will protect the vines
for ten days or two weeks of ordinary
weather, and would not advise a second
application until some signs of the disease
are seen. If, however, the blight begins 10
show by the middle of August or later, do
not delay but make a second application at
once using the same strength mixture free
ly, or If the disease is spreading badly use
II lbs. of blue vitrol and lbs. lime to,
barrel of water. A third application of the
weaker form of the mixture may be needed
on late potatoes in September, depending
of course, upon the conditions of the plants
and the prevalence Of the disease.
For further information send to the EX-
pertinent Station for Bulletins concerning
potato blight and rot All Bulletins are
free and all letters of inquiry Will be well
coined and will receive immediate answer
If there is any uncertainty as TO whether
or not your vines are blighting send specl-
mems of diseased leaves or plants for eX-
animation.
