PLUMS FOR MARKET.
There Are Hundreds of Varieties, but
Only "a Few Are Adapted for
General Cultivation.

The number of known species of
among those hundreds there are only
a few that it will pay to do much
with. But it requires a great deal of
Xperimentation to find out the best
that is in each species Each species
in turn is made to produce innumer-
able varieties. which may be in turn
crossed with the seedlings of other
species If all the new varieties were
named we would soon have chaos in
the nomenclature In addition the
number of varieties would become 10
great that the longest life would not
suffice to become acquainted with
them. tits, therefore, fortunate that
cutting out of varieties is continually
going on. Recently in walking
through block of 500 Seeding plum
trees with Prof. Golf, of the Wiscon-
sin experiment station, he made the
remark that of those 500 trees, all
fruiting and bearing fairly good
plums, not more than a dozen trees
would be saved The rest were to 90
onto the brush heap. He says we have
too many varieties now, and that
most of the varieties men are at
tempting to grow should be discard
ed This phase of the subject is of
interest to the plum student and is
an encouragement, for it justifes the
course of passing lightly over most
OF the varieties or forgetting them
altogether and fixing the attention
on the few varieties that have been
proven to be good. For all practical
purposes, therefore, it is possible for
man to become a plum expert with
out devoting an entire life TO the
study.-Farmers' Review.

protection, as much heat escapes and
much cold enters the crack between

there is very little necessity for mats

SPRAYING A SCIENCE.
All of Our Agricultural Colleges Are
Now Teaching How 40 DO the
Work Right.

The time has gone by when spray
ing Of fruit trees is considered a task
that can be successfully performed
by any novice. When fruit growers
first realized that their trees must be
sprayed it was currently supposed
that any hired man could take a spray
pump of any make and cover the
trees with a spray solution destruc-
tive to the insects and fungi, but
harmless to the tree itself. This be-
lief was the cause Of the many fail
ures that were early recorded against
the operators. Spraying is now
recognized as science, and all Of
our agricultural colleges are teaching
how to do the work correctly. The
advice is now given: DO not trust
an inexperienced man behind the noz-
zle of a sprayer." Most of the men
that spray are mere bunglers at the
business. having no complete eoncep-
tior Of the great principles underly-
ing the operation. Spraying is rapid
~ becoming a profession, and we pre-
dict that it will not be long before
men skillful in spraying trees will be
in demand both in the city and coun-
try. 1t is becoming evident that the
owner of a small orchard can better
pay an expert owning his own appa-
ratus to do the work than to himself
invest in an outfit and trust his own
experience. Farmers Review.

Falling hair is caused by dandruff, which
is germ disease. The germ, in burrowing
in to the root of the hair, where it destroys
the vitality of the hair, causing the hair to
tall out, digs up the cuticle in little scales,
called dandruff or scurf You can't stop the
