Planting and rertilix,ng Corn.

experiments continued through sew
en- years Mt the Indiana station plant
ing corn early in May gave the best
returns in general The greatest aver
age yields of ears and stalks were OBJ
tanned when single stalks stood II to
IA inches apart in rows 3ia feet apart.
Thick planting reduced the size of the
ears and the percentage of grain. but
In dry seasons it produced the heaviest
yield of stalks Cultivating one, two
and three inches deep gave about equal
results. and cultivating four inches deep
considerably reduced the yield. There
was practically no difference in plant
Ing corn In hills or drills.
Fertilizer tests showed that In con-
tinuous corn culture heavy applica-
tons of. manure and commercial fer
tilizers were not profitable. A heavy"
application of commercial fertilizers
consisted of $50 pounds of acid phos-
plate, 432 pounds of ammonium sui
plate and 105 pounds of muriate OF
potash and heavy" application of
horse manure of 14,500 pounds per
acre. 1t was noticed that the effect of
a heavy dressing Of fresh horse MA
nure was not exhausted after 10 years

Wormy Apples.

There is nothing new about wormy
apples except the way to avoid having
them. There are several species Of grubs
or worms which work in apples. but the
one which does nearly all the damage is
the core worm. The core worm is the
offspring of the cooling moth. and this is
the insect which man wants to fight 10
his apple trees.
The best general remedy for the core
worm, or codling moth, according to in
formation furnished by the Vermont ex-
pertinent station, is paris green. Some
apple growers use london purple; others
use white arsenic; but they amount to the
same thing. They all poison the core
worms. Other insecticides like hellebore,
kerosene or sulphur, are not effective In
this case
In the hands OF the average man paris
green is the best medicine for the cooling
moth. The poison should be thoroughly
mixed with water at the rate OF a quarter
of pound to the arrel,-that is about
one pound of paris green to 100 to 2oo
gallons of water. About a pound OF lime
ought to be added to each barrel OF water.
which will prevent scalding of the foliage.
1t should be applied with spray pump
and fine nozzle.
In case bordeaux mixture is used on
the trees the paris green may be added
to that solution at the rate already re-
commended.
The first spraying for the codling moth
should be made as soon as the blossoms
fall or within a week afterward. 1t Is
very important to do this before the little
apples begin to hang down their heads,
as after that time they do not catch and
hold the poison.

Tent Caterpillars.

In Bulletin u of last February,
Clarence M. Weed Of the New Hampshire
Experiment Station recalls the fact that 10
1868, when the tent caterpillars were
hatching there were heavy and long-con-
tinued rains. As they had not then built
their tents large part of them were
washed away and died. Some sheltered
themselves on the under side of the twigs
and survived, but in May and June a
bacterial disease, sort Of insect cholera,
appeared among them. and soon nearly
every nest was full of dead and dying
cateipillars. He predicted then that
there would be but few in 1899. a predic-
ton which was happily fulfilled. Then
was the time to attack the few left and ex-
terminate them. That is the difference
between tent caterpilsrs. forest caterpill-
ars and the cankerworm. and the Gypsy
moth caterpillar. The latter never seems
to be troubled by disease or by parasites,
while the others are when they have been
two or three years very abundant.

"No doubt exists in the minds of
the friends Of Gen. Joseph Wheeler
that his return from the Philippines,
in compliance with his own request, !,
is due to the failure OF General Otis to
give him active service in the field. In
certain quarters, an effort is made to
attribute General Wheeler's return to
inability to standethe climate and to
his age. In refutation of the former
his friends point TO statement be
made after vislting the American
hnes-'the impression that the coun-
try Is unhealthy is wrong Regard

is OILY about ayear older than Cen

Wheeler to return were oabled about
