Notes From the Experiment Stations.

The New Hampshire experiment sta
ton has made exhaustive experiments il
spraying. They recommend Bordeaux
mixture for general use made up as fol
oWs blue vitriol l Id. fresh lime go ID
water 10 gallons. This mixture is strained
before using. The lime when used In sui
ficient quantities Eeutralizes the deleter
Gus effects that otherwise the blue vitrol
would have on the foliage and holds tn
solution on the foliage for longer time
To make n combined insccticide ant
fungicide, Paris green or London purple
may be added to the Bordeaux mixture
in tho proportion of four ounces u
pound) to fifty gallons This combina
ton is useful in the spraying of apph
trees Just after the blossoms fall, as il
serves to destroy both the scab and tie
codling moth. For pear and apple scab
spray with Bordeaux mixture once befor,
the blossoms open; again just after the.
have fallen, and then a third time atte,
ten days or two weeks. Rainy weather
may make shorter interval and an ad
ditional spraying advisable. For potat,
blight the early blight spraying with Dor
deaux mixture should be begun by The
middle Of July or sooner if the character
istic brown spots of the disease make their
appearance The spraying should be re
peated twice, with an interval Of ten days
or fortnight. oftener in case of rainy
weather. The results from spraying pear
trees with a Bordeaux mixture, one pound
Of blue vitriol to II gallons of water with
requisite amount of fresh lime, was in one
instance again in quality Of fruit over
the unsprayed trees of ~ per cent. In
another instance there was gain of 16
per cent in quality of fruit. Another
comparison showed gain in the number
of pears free from scab on the sprayed
tree of 40 per cent. In another trial
where there was moth patch as we'll
as scab there was decrease of SO
per cent of scab and 81 per cent of moth
patch on the sprayed trees. Similar good
results were obtained from spraying apple
trees Experiments in spraying potatoes
for early blight and the scab resulted
in an average increase per acre due to
spraying of 33 bushels. 1t was found that
the germs Of the scab disease live on the
potatoes and in the infected soil for an in
definite time. 1t is believed that scabby
potatoes will produce smooth ones when
planted in uninfected soil. provided the
scaDby seed be first thoroughly washed in
corrosive sublimate.
At the Guelph station the question of
the proper distance apart to plant pota-
toes has been put to the test. The rows
were 90 inches apart and the hills one,
two and three feet apart. Where whole
large potatoes were used one foot apart the
Yield was 319.l7 bushels when two feet
apart, a42 SO bushels and when three feet
apart 1899 bushels were grown. But OH
account of the difference in the amount of
seed required the yield was substantially
the same for the potatoes planted one and

A MODEL BARN
Will Be the New One Soon to Be Built at the
Hospital.

The best COW barn in the New England
states is to be constructed on the grounds
of the Insane hospital in this CITY. IT
will be brick structure 2O3 feet long nv
40 feet wide; one story building. with
monitor roof. The COW barn is LOCATED
north and south, which gives 1t the SIM
all Jay, which Will be great advantage
to the stock. Attached to each end at
right angles with the cow barn, are two
nay barns which serve for the storage of
the nay to supply the cattle in the large
COW Darn. These barns are 107 feet in
length by AZ feet in width, and will CON
tain three large silos that will provide for
about $50 tons Of enslage, also the neces
sary grain rooms for the storage of grain.
arranged in the most convenient and an
proved manner.
The arrangement of this barn secures
quiet for the cows and an almost absolute
freedom from floating dust. The cows
are arranged in two lines, facing each
other, their heads being ii feet apart
The stantions and chain swivels allow
great freedom of motion. The managers
are shaped depressions in the floor and
arc SO arranged that a valve can be I'll raed
and stream of water will flow the en-
tire length, and in this way one man can
water the entire 100 COWS in 15 minutes.
The COW barn Is arranged to accommodate
100 cows.
The floor upon which the cattle stand is
perfectly fiat; the hind feet of the animals
rest upon the Stewart self-cleaning stable
grating. This grating covers water
tight trench made Of Southern pine plank
three feet wide and two feet deep. The
manure falls through the grating and at
least once day dry sand will be sifted
onto the contents of the trench to absorb
the liquids and kill the foul odor. No
straw is to be used for litter so the graf
ings will never clog When the trenches
are full trap will be opened at one end
and the manure is pushed by a scraper
attached to small windlass to an open
ing where it falls into a cart and is hauled
onto the land The manure will be re-
moved every week ensuring the perfect
cleanliness of the animals and the purity
of the milk.
The hay and grain is brought in on a
large truck and fed from the same to the
cattle in the V shaped trough After
feeding the trough can be rinsed and
swept out clean and it will at all times be
perfectly clean. This trough is water
tight The barn will be sheathed through
out and finished in hard oil so that it can
be thoroughly washed down and cleansed
by means of a small hose. The whole ar
rangement is a model of convenience, as
surfing cleanliness and health for the stock
at minimum cost for labor The herd
of dairy stock which will be placed in

A certain smart young man in our
he can play some trick ON person. had
to swallow bitter pill the other evening.
1t seems that he never dares to go out
alone and so takes gent number two along
to keep him company. One evening not
long ago these two went to whist party.
Things went along nicely until the hour
arrived for them to take their departure,
when the smart young man and gent
number two wanted the same lady. OF
course two was too many, and so the
smart young man had to content himself
with her sister. In the course Of their
travels the smart young man discovered
that there was but one key to the house
where they were going and that was in
the possession of his fair friend, so he
thought it would be a good joke to make
gent number two wait until he returned,
which he did about two hours later to
find them still waiting. AS the smart
young man was to have the company of
his fair friend to another whist party, her
folks thought they would find out what
time they were in the habit Of returning
so they had taken all the tin ware they
could find about the house and had tied
it to the door and retired to a safe dis
lance and waited for things to develop
When the smart young man got back and
tried the door down came the collection OF
tin ware and also his lady friends folks,
to demand an explanation, for the clock
in the hall said A. Nj. The smart young
man said that the clock was too fast and
that he would fix it free of charge If its
owner would bring it around. 1t may
be well to state that the difficulty has
been satisfactorily arranged between all
parties and late hours are prohibited
