HORTIcULTU RAL DEPARTMENT

Since our horticultural Society has
asked US to act as their reporter and
the editor OF the REGISTER has so
readily granted us, not corner but a
distinct department for the consider
alton of the subject, we propose that
each week something of interest to
the student of horticulture shall be
ready for the reader, and solicit the
cooperation of all interested readers
i'm order that matters in this line
may be thoroughly discussed as they
interest us in our immediate locality.
Please report failures as well as sue
cesses, as the experience of those who
are at the work is of more value than
any theories that may be advanced,
At our meeting April II, the COM
mittee on orchards reported condition
of orchards good. Committee on
small fruits reported prospect for a
full crop. A. l.. Dibble read a paper
on Raising Vegetables" which will
appear in this department later. 1t
was discussed by q. Chase who
thinks cabbage the best paying crop
and tomatoes the next. Several WIS.,
itors were present from near Moran
who extended an invitation to the
Society to meet with them sometime
in the future. r :. Moore was APP
pointed as delegate to represent the
interests of our society with the Fair
Association, Mr.. Moore read paper
from which we quote the following
most valuable formulate and direct
ions for
SPRAYING FRUIT TREES.
frnnr rn
pretty we'll established. That the
ravages of insects and fungus can be
very materially reduced by the timely
and proper application of insecticides,
and fungicid is no longer an expert
ment but a fact. He who sprays
should spray thoroughly, the appli-
cation should be repeated several
times to obtain the best results, They
should be made early enough and
continued late enough in the season
to reach the enemy. l will submit
the following calender for spraying
operations in the plum orchard;
First application:-When blossoms
have fallen. Bordeaux mixture and
London Purple, combined,
Second application;-Ten days later
the same mixture.
Third application:-Ten days later,
Bordeaux Mixture.
Fourth application:-TO prevent
fruit rot, two weeks before plums
ripen, Bordeaux mixture.
FORMULAS:
Bordeaux mixture:-Copper Sui
phate, 6 pounds; Quick lime, pds;
Dissolve Copper Sulphate in 4 gallons
of water. Shake Lime in gallons of
water. Mix the two solutions and
add 80 gallons of water. 1t is now
ready for immediate use.
For all fungus diseases, rots and
mildews:-London Purple, (arsenites)
London Purple, one pound, water, $50
gallons. This should not be used on
peach or plum trees without the ad-
dition of lime. One pound of lime to
one pound of London Purple. This
can be applied with the Bordeaux
with perfect safety the action
of neither being weakened, and the
Purple loses all its caustic properties.
The remainder of Mr.. Moore's pa
per, from which the foregoing is an
extract, will be printed hereafter.

some time and L am entirely cured.
