STRAWBERRIES.

Charles Wright, of Seaford, was the
first speaker and took up the small
fruits. He characterized the root aphis
as being as much an enemy to the
strawberry as the yellows is to the
peach, and advised purchasers to buy
their plants with guarantee against
1t. If the aphis is suspected in plants
about to be set, dip them in "a solution
OF tobacco made by boiling one pound
OF tobacco in one gallon of water. For
the leaf roller, which is small insect
spinning a web ON the surface of the
leat thus causing it to curl up and die,
he advised sending boys through the
patch to pick the affected leaves which
are afterwards burned. An old patcb
infested with the roller NAV be burned
over earl y in spring, but he thought If
less trouble to plant new patches each
year. For the white grub, he could
only advise not to plant on sod
ground.
Mr. Wright cited the experiment
made IN shipping straw berries this wear
from Dover in tight packages. He
said the fruit carried very we'll and
sold as high as berries shipped in re-
IrlSerator cars, and much higher than
1rult shipped in ordinary market cars.
Ihls may point to new kind of pack
age for shipping all small fruits.
MI Wright advised growers to plant
only tested varieties, trying new va
rletles each year, but trying only small
quantities until their worth is demon
