PROTECTION AGAINST FRosTs.
How This vital Subject Is Considered by
The American Agrieulturist.

The American Agricultursst.
This is a vital matter to fruit grow
ers and truckers, whose season. labor
and investment may be wiped out by
single destructive frost. The more yalu-
able the crop and the greater the risk of
FROST the more effort and expense may
be safely put into means of protecting
against frosts. A famous California or
ange grove is equipped with system
of iron pipes through which water is
conducted to nozzles at frequent inter
walls. the idea being that the spray will
ward off light frosts. Barrels of tar and
rubbish in different parts of the orchard
are available for making smudge Of
smoke, which is the most practicable
means yet devised.
In the case Of freeze such as visited
California two years ago and Florida
last winter or real hard frost in other
sections. neither of these methods is of
much avail Smoke is good against all
light frosts, and is easily obtained.
Strawy manure, leaves, rubbish, etc.
should be piled in the lowest places and
about the sides, and covered with hay
caps or ducking, previously painted
with two coats of linseed oil and dried,
SO as to be always dry. Have barrel of
kerosene oil handy, some cans and
torches
When frost threatens, set night
watch to inspect thermometers placed
on stakes in various parts OF the field,
especially in the most exposed places.
If the mercury drops to 30 degrees by
or Q a. m. it is likely to mean frost of
more or less severity before sunrise.
Then call up the folks, light the torches
and let each person take torch and oil
can, previously filed, and set fire to the
row of rubbish heaps previously assign
ed him. If the wind blows the smoke
away from the field, carry some rubbish
over to that side SO the smoke will be
blown on to instead Of off from the field.
If the danger never comes, no expense
worth mentioning has been incurred, as
the piles can be scattered and plowed
under for manure or burned, the ashes
making excellent fertilizer. No prudent
person thinks of leaving his buildings
uninsured against fire. Certainly it is
just as important to insure against frosts
SO far as it can be done by such simple
means as smoke coverings or water. We
wish all who have had experience in this
matter would send it for publication.
Mr.. E. P. Powell, a successful and
brainy horticulturist in western New
York, writes:
'sThe very best preventive against
frost is not fires, but Thorough spraying
with water during the evening and
night. When this can be done, we can
overcome the danger from a fall of two
or three degrees. This will often save
our whole crop. This last spring I lost
my grapes by margin Of not more
than two degrees, but on a preceding
night anticipated the frost by deluging
the trellises with water. Of course bon
fires may also be used. anticipate we
shall be compelled to adopt irrigation
in all the eastern states. +"
