From Farmers Review: II Is come
VIVA. remarkable that in the prseasa'
ton and the application of BORDEAUX
Mixture, operations that the orchard
ist and the gardener are now pretty
well acquainted with, there should BE-
complaint as to the efficacy OF the
fungicide. IL Is said that the COM
POUND is sometimes no more useful
than mere water and that substance
like chalk settles at the bottom ane

the liquid part. In the first case the
trouble is probably not in the fungi

ing got too great a Roadway hefors
being sprayed. The disease must be
prevented. not cured. therefore, spray
early and thoroughly.
The ehalky powder Is found only In
old mixture or al least In that nor
freshly prepared. Its formation may
be explained as follows: when the
solutions OF lime and Of copper are
united In the formation OF Bordeaux

Last summer / was greatly inter-
ested in watching field OF listed" DO
tatoes and corn, says l.. B. Pierce in
Country Gentleman. A town Irishman
had under his charge small farm just
outside the city. He rented 1t. but
when blowing time came the tenant
gave up the contract, and left him with
a piece OF land of rather doubtful fer
tility and no one to work 1t. 1t had
been in corn the year before, and my
Irish friend, with but one horse, set
his wits to work to get another crop
with a minimum OF labor. He ran a
large shovel pillow between the rows
one way and marked with a corn
marker the other. He then dropped BY
hand strip Of potatoes, and planted
the rest with corn, covering all by
straddling each furTow with a Planet
Jr. cultivator, with the sweeps turned
Inward. The potatoes came nicely. but
the seed corn, being taken from lot
got at feed store, nearly all failed
It was replanted with a 'jabber" or
hand-planter, but the soil being shall

again replanted with hoe. The re-
suit was long-drawn-out period Of
waiting for the smallest to get big

ing advanced enough in his methods
to harrow or get fine-tooth cultiva-
tor; In fact, he was bound to be at no
additional expense for this somewhat
problematieal and accidental piece of
farming. 1t must have been about
seven weeks after the potatoes were
planted before the man got in to cul-
tivate, working across corn and pota-
toes the first time. BY the time he
got ready to cross his cultlyating, the
potatoes were foot high and alive

There are few farms that do moi,
have variety OF soils. Especially II
this true on billy land and even or
some rolling land. There Is the sandy
loan and the clay loan and some soils
that cannot be called loamy in any
sense. Where varieties OF soils exist
the crops should be placed on them ac
eording TO the nature OF the crops &c
be grown. One would not suppose this
advice necessary, but ii Is. The writer
has seen sugar beets grown on the
sandy loan of a farm one year and
give immense results, and he has seen
the same crop put on heavy. lumpy
clay the next year and give almost nc
results.
This practice not only destroys the
usefulness OF the crop that Is placed
on ground unsuited for 10, but ii dis
places some other crop that would
thrive on that same ground. The cab
bage crop is one that will do well on
these heavy clay soils, and the par.
snip crop, as every farmer knows. de-
mands clay to do its best. The trouble
is that with the parsaip crop the de-
mand Is small and no large area can
proitably be devoted to growing the
root. There are, however. many kinds
of farm produce that will do well on
such land.
A little study OF the adaptabIllty of
soils will do much to remedy the evil.
When farmer must raise every kind
OF produce on one kind OF soil he will
do well to eliminate few crops that
are especially adapted to soil other
than that he has.

Glover Hay.

raise three babies than one clover hay
crop" That is an odd comparison.
and we are inclined TO think that he
knows about as much about raising
one as the other. The complaint Is
made that it is difficult to get catch,

and unfit to use. Well, we would ad-
wise little experience in the matter.
IL is indeed often difficult to get a
catch, and in some years no amount
OF forethought can prevent a failure
Many of our best farmers succeed in
getting a start by sowing on the snow
in March.
AS to cutting clover, 1t has long been
a settled tenet with our scientific
farmers to cut at time OF the earliest
blooms, unless the field Is small one.
when 1t may be cut at time of full
blooD. The reason for moving at
time Of first blooms is to get the whole
field cut and in process OF curing be-
fore the blooms begin to fade. This
prevents the stalks becoming woody
and gives us the fodder in the bes,
possible shape. The curing of clover
hay Is not such difficult feat. with
good weather. If foggy New England
can cure clover hay, we see no reason
why 1t should be difficult task in the
West, where the amount OF sunshine
per month Is much greater. In recent
years, too, We have the help Of new
invention-the hay cap. These caps
can be made for few cents each. and
are complete protection against
storms that may come at time of cur
ing the clover. They will last a long
time, for some years they will not
