this we'll known friend of the farmer.
Though in use and generally approved
for years, imported by millions of tons
to this country and Europe, producing
always good results, cheap, excellent
and beneficial, those worthy gentlemen,
who call me "theorist" and claim to
be practical" men, are suddenly dis
covering that, after all, nitrate of soda
is most injurious to plant life-that it
mi lures the sugar formation of beets, etc.
This, they say, is not due to the nitro5
gen, but is the evil results of the Soda
Potash, they say, never would do any,
thing so dreadful. Now, the peculiar
thing is that they are accurately des-
cribing the effect on the sugar and
starch formation of the muriates or
sulphates of either base potash or
soda) as distinguished from the nj
trates or carbonates. The evidence is
overwhelming and absolutely uncontra-
dicted.
We are told in one breath that soda
cannot be su bstltuted for potash because
plants will not take up soda into their
formation, and in the next breath that
nitrate OF soda Injuries plant growth be-
cause the plant takes up SO much soda
that it cannot take up the necessary
supply of potash in the soil. And vet so
wonderful are the processes of nature, as
interpreted by these gentlemen, that
while the soda if supplied in nitrate of
soda paralyses the plant by logging it
soda, if the soda is part of a potath salt
-kainit-if largely in excess of the pot
ash, it has an effect because the plant
takes up the potash and soda cannot
take it's place.
1t is refreshing to turn from this jug
Cling with the facts of nature to the
Rhode Island experiment station bulle-
tin, No. %. p. 33, where it is said: "In
the use of the muriate and sulphate of
am monia, the crops remove chiefly the
bases, leaving the greater portion of the
acids behind, and their continued use,
without resort to occasional lining, ex-
cept in case of limestone soils, m ust tend
towards increasing acldity, while nitrate
of soda, which furnishes it's nitric acid
to the plant, would doubtless tend to
produce the opposite results. owing to
the fact that the plants do not remove
all the soda, in consequence of which
the residue would perform the functions
of base by combining with the natural
acid of the soil. This action, together
with the direct availability of it's nitro
gen and the fact that the soda not only
liberates potash, but may also be of some
direct fertiliZing value.to certain plants,
serves to explain the beneficial action Of
nitrate of soda as compared with other
forms of nitrogen, when used for several
consecutive seasons on our acid soil.'

badly infected groves has failed to show
any signs of the larvae of the white fly.
it Is apparently impossible for them to
develop on these. The following is a
list of the plants on which they have
not been found after careful search, and
these may probably be exempted with
safety from the list of plants which
should be cut down or defoliated if the
white fly is to be eradicated: Pines,
cedars and other conifers. oaks, palms,
roses, Spanish bayonets and bamboos.
Such an enormous number of plants
are cultivated in the State that it is
practically impossible for one to exam
inc all that remain evergreen. Thus the
only thorough directions that can be
given is to destroy all plants which re-
main evergreen, except those on which
the white fly has not been found. | give
you now in condensed form the recon-
mendations which, if carefully followed,
we think would rid Florida of the white
fly pest.
DIRECTIONS HOW TO ERADICATE THE
WHITE FLY.
/. Cut down and burn all cape jessa-
mines, English ivy and banana shrub.
3. Cut down or defOliate and burn all
evergreen plants, vines, shrubs or trees;
especially loquats Japan plums), honey
suckles, magnolias, red bays, hollys,
mock oranges, cross vines, bignonias),
yellow jessamine, coonties (compties),
bays, yupons and green briers (bamboo
vines).
The following plants on which the
white fly has not been found may be
exempted: Pines; cedars and other con-
Tiers, oaks, palms, roses, Spanish bayo-
nets and bambOOS.
Do not trust to searching for the
white flies. In their present condition
they are quite invisible except to one
very familiar with them, and almost
invisible to him unless he is armed with
good magnifying glass.
1t should further be emphasized that
all action taken must be taken immedi-
ately as the flies begin to hatch about
the middle Of March, and any action
taken after this period will be fruit
less.
The damage which will be done to the
trees and shrubs cut down or defOliated
is very slight, and only temporary, as
those cut down will grow up rapidly,
having good root systems, and those
merely defoliatied will In four months
hardly show an effect.
What is said here IS applicable to the
entire State. Let nc man hesitate to
follow these directions for the reason that
"should l, my neighbor will not and
thus 40 good will be accomplished.
Those who say this will be the neibhbors
who will not.
Many isolated groves now having the
white fly may be freed from the pest by
following the above directions, even if
it is not eradicated from the State as
whole.
| trust that all orange growers will
take the matter in hand and leave no
stone unturned to stamp the pest out.

lose if we would derive the only benefit
