NEW POINTS IN SPRAYING.

"Spraying must soon exert power
full influence upon methods of cultiva-
tion," writes L. H. Bailey in American
Gardening. sit establishes new rea-
son for pruning. The old, thick me-
elected orchards-these cannot be
sprayed to advantage; too much time
and material are consumed, and the
spray cannot reach all parts Of the top.
And it is doubtful if it pays to spray for
the inferior fruit which such trees must
produce. The first requisite to spraying
is pruning. Labor is cheap when prun-
ing is done; it is expensive when spray
ing is doIe. Prune in February and
March; spray in May, June and July.
Spraying, too, must drive corn and
other tall crops from the orchard. And
it will emphasize the Importance Of level
culture.
1.-TWO important facts have been en-
phasized by the experiments OF the last
year-that for most fungous diseases the
spray should be applied before the flow
ers appear, and that 1t pays to spray in
wet season. Spraying in wet seasons
has been discouraged by those who
ought to have upheld it, for the wet
season is the one in which fungi spread
most rapidly and in which spraying is
most needed. We must spray in wet
years, therefore, II no other, and the
extra labor Of more frequent applications
is likely to be literally repaid by the
higher price of fruit in such years. So
all experience now emphasizes the value
of the arsenical and copper and sulphur
sprays for every year. ThUre should be
no half heartedness, no timidity, no pro-
crastination; lukewarm armies are never
victorious"

Whatever, again, may have been the

Alexander I. when, Drawing the anger

FLAxsEED MEAL FOR SHEEP AND CATTLE.
Sheep and cattle feeding on rutabasas

Voelcher reports that the feeding expert.
mcnts on the Royal Society's experiment
farm, at Woburn, England, show that
faxseed meal is more profitable feed
for root-fed sheep than barley alone, or
in part. OF twelve Hereford steers, fed
all the rutabagas and clover hay they
would eat, Elk were fed mixture of
equal parts of peas, beans and barley,
and the other six received from six TO
twelve pounds OF flaxseed meal. The
former made rs great gain as the latter
at cost of Sl.57 per head less. The
experiments show that feeding with flax
seed meal may be proatably replaced
by a mixture of peas, beans and
small grains, whenever the price of the
naxseed meal is above 1925 per hun.

SMOKY HOLLOW.

Smoky Hollow is an imaginary, myth
cal, mysterious non-existence, supposedly
lying and being in the eastern part of the
suburbs of Durham town. Historians
and geographers have never mentioned
this enchanted, ghoul- haunted and misty
weird region of sin. The maps fail to
show that such place is on the fiat
earth's surface-and no surveyors COM
pass and chain have marked the meets
and bounds-the degrees or latitude. No
smoke has ever come from this much
frequented and much talked of section
no Incorporation has ever existed and it
hath been said by the property owners in
the vicinity when this Lost Smoke fails
to issue that there can be no such place,
as they own no property in Smoky Hol-
low.
1t is alleged by many and divers per-
sons that in this Northumberland, in
deed, such it must be-that gay and giddy
sirens disport themselves on the velvety
lawns; that there all is not loveliness, and
yet at nightfall music sweet and soothing
-melodious as the strains of dozen gen
tlemen cats pouring out their souls for
their lost mates-falls upon a bank of
violets, scenting and giving odor.
And men and boys when the shades of
night are little deeper grown do them
selves go there and fight and drink and
swear and sleep in sin until the morning
dawn is seen and then they HE them
selves away
And yet where these noises and strange
oaths are heard where are seen brazen
and polluted women-all disappear be-
fore the officers of the law-and alas
It's but mirage-a delusion-a phan-
tom. Pity tits, that the kodack is not in

When Durham was small, about the

in the course of human events, necessary
on the rart of the wise, patriotic and

the city. That Ordnance-almost part
OF the organic law we may say, is still
in fOrce-but not in action. And why?
