That Spray Receipt.

Recently the DEMocRAr published re.
ceipt for spraying which is said to be the
best known. As our issue OF the paper
containing it ran out wo republish the
receipt by request:
unslackened lime, 30 pounds; pow.
dered sulphur 20 pounds; and ordinary
stock salt, Is pounds; to be used with co
gallons OF water. Ihe way they prepare
it is TO place 10 pounds OF lime and 20
pounds of powdered sulphur in an iron
kettle, with 20 gallons OF water, and boil
in lively way for at least two hours, OF
until the sulphur is dissolved. Then put
the other 20 pounds OF lime in barrel,
or large tub that will hold all, and water
enough to slack all the lime, then, when
dissolved, add the salt. and water en-
ough to make the go gallons. The pre-
scription maker says it must be applied
luke warm but that is not SO easily done.
II you have a sled to haul it about the
orchard on, ald work rather lively, you
may he able to get il on before It gets
| really cold, but in a wintry sort of day
such as we have when the trees are der.
mani, the sol ution won't reach the tree
IN a very warm state after being reduced
to spray and passing through the chill
air. II might be possible TO make this
more deadly by adding bluestone TO it,
but those who know say lime, sulphur
and salt ans wer all necessary purpose.
