Bordeaux Wivture and AmmOniacal
carbonate Of copper are the best all
round fungicidCS. The former is
made as follows: Dissolve pounds
Of copper sulphate in a wooden or
carthen vessel. In another tub or
vessel Slake pounds of FRESH lime:
add enough water to reduce it to the
consistency of a thick whitcwaSh.
Pour this slowly into the vessel con-
tanning the COppcr-Sul phate solution,
using course gunny sack stretched
across the top Of the vessel for Il
Straincr. Dilute to 4J gallons before
applying TO plants Of any kind.
The following formula is given for
making the AmmOniaCal carbonate Of
copper solution: The stock solution
is made by adding , ounces of carbon
ate Of copper, to } pintS of ammonia
(26e). this may be kept any length OF
time in Il bottle with glass stopper.
For use dilute with 4jgaIlOns Of water,
"Thc most convenient receptacle for
the spraying solution, and the one
most easily obtained and mounted is
Il common oil barrel. Mount this
upon Il sled, the runners Of which are
made from plank 2XG or 8 in. and Il lit
tie longer than the barrel. The width
of the sled should not greatly exceed
that Of the bulge Of the barrel To
make the barrel fast to the sled pass
Il band of hOOp-irOn over either end
and faStcn it securely to the runners.
When completed we shall have cask
laying horizontally upon plank sled,
to which it is securely fastened.
Mount the pump upon the rear end Of
the barrel. with handle parallel with
the long axis of the barrel. At the
front end and on the top side of the
barrel remove a portion of one or two
Of the slaves between the second and
third hoops leaving an opening in.
wide through which the liquid may be
poured. To prevent loss of the mix
ture the opening should be covered
with a piece of burlap or oil-clOth.
Tack one edge to the barrel having
the rest loose to admit OF its being
turned back to allow the full opening
to be used i'm filling the barrel.
The length of hose needed will de-
pend upon the character and height Of
the plants to be sprayed. In general.
however. from eight to ten feet will
be ample, if the nozzle used is suited
to throw fine spray long distance.
If the nozzle has to be carried into the
tree on pole in order to do the re-
quired work. the length OF the hose
must be increased correspondingly.
For spraying large forest. fruit, or
street trees the barrel aS before de-
scribed, instead Of being mounted
upon runners. may be placed upon a
wagon. This will be found to be most
where the trees are at
some distance from each other, or IN
long rows. far enough apart to admit
the team and wagon. ."-lnduStrial

There are number of these jars
containing various grains Of poor
quality and small quantity. They are
placcd-nOt in the handsome tubes
and globes which ECautify other
pavilions. nor in the large masses
which cOmOei the impression Of abun-
dancc-bUt in the cheap and unat-

are partially covered with an in

nothing to show the wonderful pro-
ductiC!$ Of our young state. Last
year South Dakota produced wheat
enough to fill 4 solid train o. freight
cars stretching from Dcadwood to
New York. l.500 miles. 1t would
have cost little to make a painting
which would bring this fact sharply
home to the visitor. Yet there is
nothing to show that the state is not
what 1t was pictured during the Miner
county failure.

who arranged it and those who have
it in charge agree with me that Il

The Worlds Greatest show.
1t was a great day for Brookings,
was last Monday. Ringing Bros.
had promised to be here and that was
enough. Long before daylight the
farmers, for miles around were hust-
ling around doing their chores i'm order
to get to town. AS early as 6:30 they
began to arrive and the roads were
lined with teams in every direction.
The early trains brought in large
loads &C people until it was variously
estimated that there was from eight
to ten thousand visitors. Suffice it
to say that fully ten thousand people
attended the afternoons performance.
\ detailed description of the show
is a practical impossibility. Every
body was satisfied that they got a half
dollars worth to say the least and it is
certainly a treat for town the size
of BrookingS to be visited by showof
such mammoth proportions and have
its managers satisfied by the patron
age received. Not thing was slight
ed, the performance was given just cX-
actly as it is given in all the large
cities of the continent. Should they
visit us again next season they will
have larger crowd than ever.

As TO NEWS.

The happy habit of THE GLOBE which
is, to print the news when news is news,
was exemplified this morning.
Within seven minutes after Mr.. JOR-
DAN had stated that the jury found Roll
L1Ns guilty of manslaughter, THE GLOBE
was on the street announcing the verdict
and describing the scene in the court
house.
THE GLOBE, while not perhaps neces-
sary to remind people that it is printing
the news, cannot refrain at this time from
saying that it did some good newspaper
work this morning.
And thus, if you take THE GLOBE, you
get the news when news is news.
The Durham daily globe. (Durham, N.C.) 1889-1894, 1893-04-08
SHOULD CALL \ HALT.

While city matters are being discussed
The GLOBE would like to know how it is
and why it is that boys are allowed TO
play ball on the principal streets of the
city, frightening horses and endangering
the lives Of citizens who walk or drive
along the main thoroughfares.
1t is common occurrence-sO COM
mon that it is getting to be nuisance
for crowds of boys TO collect on the resi-
dence streets after school hours and en-
gage in exciting games of ball, regardless
of who may be passing or what mischief
may be done in their determination to
enjoy the sport, let the consequences be
what they may.
THE GLOBE has heard much complaint
of the boys, and as the season opens and
the temptation for open air exercise in
creases, the necessity for putting stop
to this particular kind of amusement
becomes more and more apparent. As
an illustration, while going home yester-
day the Yam Farm team ran into such
crowd on Ramseur street, which is one
OF the most constantly travelled streets in
Durham, and experienced the disagree
able sensation of feeling itself surrounded
by flying balls, with the no less uIpleas-

ant anticipation of being struck at any
moment
And these fears proved to be not
grOundless, for one of the balls, hurled
with great force. did strike the horse full
and square in the face, which caused a
sudden plunge on the part of the animal,
and but for the fact Of its being a trusty
steed would have meant runaway,
wrecked vehicle and perhaps death to the
occupants.
The GLOBE is not inclined to kick
generally speaking, nor to interfere with
any reasonable pleasure which it may be
the boys privilege TO enjoy. At the
same time it must insist that the streets
are intended for people to walk and drive
over and not for ball grounds.
1t is all right for the boys to play ball,
provided they get far enough out of town
not to interfere with citizens, but they
should not be allowed to take the streets
and endanger the lives of ladies and chill
dren as they now do.
