sprny Non-Infected Trees.

1t is a mistake to presume that tree
should not be sprayed because it has not
been attacked by its fungus or insect
enemy. Trees should be sprayed on
general principles. The attacks of both
fungus and insects are often unnoticed
at first. If the man does not have spray
ing apparatus the probability is that
he will look upon the first incursions
as of little account, hoping that the
pest will not be any greater than at the
first. After the trees and their fruit
have been damaged he begins to spray
but often too late to save the crop for
the year, and often not in time to save
the injury that will result to the tree
on account Of the retarding of its de-
velopng buds, which would otherwise
bear fruit next year.

windows in the position shown. The
dotted line passing through this win
dow shows that every part of the cell
lar receives tie sunlight at some part
OF the day, while n considerable part OF
the cellar will receive it constantly all
day long. The barn rests upon the cell
lar wall on all sides except the south.
where ii is supported by stone piers.
The entrance to the cellar must depend
upon the "lay of the land" but can
often be placed at the back corner in the
eastern end. This will bring it out of
the way OF cold northerly and westerly
winds. But even when of necessity
placed in either of these exposed posi-
tons it can easily be made wind proof

Eynporafion md DryiDu.

The Virginia station has reported ex-
periments on various means of utilizing
low-grade apples which, it is estimated,
constitute 40 per cent. OF the annual
crop in that state. Considerable quaint
ties of this fruit are at present sun
dried, but it is believed that the use of
evaporating apparatus would be much
more economical. The cost of manufac-
ture in either case is about three cents
per pound of finished product. The
evapJrated fruit as rule sells for about
six cents per pound and the dried for
only 21s cents. The amount OF evap-
GRATED fruit per bushel of apples was
found 10 be about &c pounds.

Col. Dyer naturally appreciates
very highly.
