The hoop itself is of three-quarter-
inch gas pipe, but half inch will do for
smaller sizes. The manipulation of
the tent varies according to its size.
If the trees are small, it can be easily
thrown over a tree, put in place and
then taken off. If the trees are of con
siderable size some effort viii be re-
quired. In the illustration the method
of changing from n tree to another
is shown. After the fumigation is
completed, the hoop is lifted until it
is in the position shown at b. Two
men, holding the sides of the tent,
carry it to the next tree and place it
the position shown at c. Then, with
out pausing, and while the tent is full
of air, the upper end of the hoop is
forced over the tree and down the
other side to about d. The hoop can
then be easily pulled down to the
ground to e.. III there is any trouble
in pulling over the cloth, the third man
with the pole goes round the tent and
lifts the cloth away from the tree, re-
lieving some of the friction and enab-

Tumigating an Orchard.

The only remedy which is absolute
ly effective for all kinds of scale is that
of fumigation. This was first prac-
ticed in California in the citrus belt to
check the ravages of the cottony cush-
ion scale and the red scale. Hydro
cyanic acid gas proved most effective
and is now used almost exclusively.
G. W. Woodwork, in bulletin 1872
of the California Experiment Station,
describes in detail the process of fu-
migating trees in an orchard. Briefly,
it consists in covering the trees with
some sort of tent, generating the gas
and allowing it to remain until the
scales have been destroyed.
The tent generally used is what is
known as a hoop tent and ranges from

1t has recently been discovered that
an alloy of seventy-eight parts of gold
and twenty-five parts of aluminium has
a characteristic deep purple color that
cannot be initiated. The strange thing
is that aluminium being white and gold
yellow, any alloy of them a be pur-
pie; and another mysterious thing is
that when the portion OF the constitu-
ents is varied, however slightly, the
purple color is lost. This is n re-
markable case of change of color,
though others are known. Alloys of
aluminium with platinum, palladium,
nickel and cobalt have distinctive
colors running from straw color 30
