Without good materials it is impos-
slble to spray successfully. There are
on the market many kinds of spray
ing materials and some of them are
about worthless. This is especially so
In such states as Illinois where there
are no inspection laws. In many other
states the laws make it difficult to
sell bogus Paris green or other bogus
polsons, and so large quantities of
such stuff are dumped on the Illinois
markets. One result of this condition
Is the discouraging of those that at
tempt to spray. They buy this bogus
material on the market, mix it ac-
cordlng to known rules, use 1t as di-
rected, and fail to do any go ID to
their trees. There are several ways
OF telling good from bogus Paris
green. The pure article is light emer-
AID green in color. Put a little on
some window glass, tap the glass and
as the poison settles down it will re-

Paris green is pure it is an i'm
palpable powder If it is not pure

plate 1t will not fall apart readily.
another test is to put some ammonia
INTO the Paris green. 1t will dissolve
the pure; it will not dissolve the i'm

Watering Trees.

unless the owner of trees under
stands some of the more important
principles of growth, there is danger
that he will, when applying water, do
more harm than good. To apply wa
ter In small quantities through the
dfouthy season is to cause the roots
IN the ground to turn toward the sur
lace and grow in that direction. Then
when the watering is discontinued for
any reason the roots dry out much
more quickly than if they had not
been watered at all. When water is
applied to trees it should be in suffi-
clent abundance to soak the ground to
a depth of several feet. The roots
VIII then not turn up to get moisture.
III 1t is necessary to apply but little
water at time it should not be put
on the surface of the ground. Dig a
mole and put in large piece of drain
pipe so that the water being thrown
into this pipe will soak deep into the
ground. In case of not having a
drain pipe or piece of tile, hole can
be made sufficiently deep to act as
reservoir. Let the water soak into
the ground from this hole. The idea
is to get the water. to the roots from
some other direction rather than from
the surface of the ground.

The Corn FIeih.

A good many of the cornstalks
growing in our fields are barren. A
careful estimate of fields of corn in
Illinois show that about 30 per cent
of all the stalks bears no ears. Still
those barren stalks take a good deal
of nutriment from the fields. Yet the
pollen from these stalks fertilize the
stalks that bear ears, and so tend to
perpetuate the strains that are un-
productive. In selecting from the
bin, the farmer is likely to get many
ears that have been developed by
polarization from stalks barren of
ears. 1t is probably better to select
the corn from stalks in the field where
it can be told for a certainty that it
was pollenized by blossoms on stalks
bearing ears. This can be done nv
cutting out all stalks that bear no ears
in the vicinity of those that are want
ed for seed. Above, we say "proba-
bly, because 1t may develop that the
pollen from barren ears is more pow
erful in reproduction than is the pollen
from stalks bearing ears, Just as The
pollen from staminate strawberry
plants is more potent for fertilization
that is the pollen from pistillate
plants. This is point worthy of in
vestigation. At tie present we know
OF no work done along that line.

oolored Man Go. E,oltrd.

A man who witnessed the fight be-
tween Joe Cans and Frank Erne at TT
Erie tells of a funny incident that
came off during the progress of the
mill. In one part of the hall a bunch
of colored men from Buffalo were
perched up on the top tier of the cir
Gus seats roofing for the Baltimore
darby. Every time Cans would strike
a blow the whole crowd would let out
howl. One fellow was so excited
that he could not restrain himself.
and he followed up Cans maneuvers
by making simliar movements with
his own body. When Cans ducked,
down would go the fellows head and
a right or left hand blow by Cans
would bring the same movement from
the admirer of Herfords champion on
the circus seats. Finally Cans made
wild swing at Erne and the saddle
colored rooter on the seats attempted
the same move. He unconsciously let
go his right and and hit another col
ored man alongside of him, causing
the whole section of seats to fall. The
darkrown contingent went down in
heap and ahghted on their heads,
and of course no damage was done,
but before the darIies could get back
to their seats Cans had knocked out
Erne and the spectators were fighting
their way to the exits.

mind to quit the ring, that his recent
fight with Kid Carter in Philadelphia
is his last, and that nothing will in
duce him to show in the roped arena

after the second round in the fight
with Carter his right hand was prac-

prowess as fighter, but says that he

EnglIsh snarrows.

From the Farmers Review: l would
say that according to my observation
the house, or English, sparrow is in
creasing not only in but also outside of
the towns. 1t has become established
in large colonies along the neighbor-
hood in which l now live, and have
also made similar observations near
Elmhurst, III. 1t seems to limit it's
nesting to the neighborhood of ms,
or at least to roadsides. l have not
observed it in the fields or woods. 10
food being chiefly derived from The
road, it naturally prefers to keep near
1T. AS to its harmfulness to agricul-
ture l should say that it is more in
direct than direct. 1t drives away
more useful species of birds, not so
much by direct opposition as by pre-
occupying the ground. It's food is
composed of insects to but a snail
degree. 1t is therefore virtually a
useless bird to man. To eradicate 1t,
however, seems to me to be an almost
impossible feat. Bounties have proven
worse than useless, as much money
was expended by the state, and many
of our useful sparrows were destroyed
by mistake.-Ellen Drummond Far

Soak Diseased Seed Potatoes.
"The failure of the potato crop in
many localities is due to fungous dis
eases. sometimes on the stalk and
sometimes on the roots. The growers
themselves do not always understand
the cause for the failures produced
by fungus, but charge it up to climate,
locality or soil. The fungus that does
the damage does not remain in the
ground from year to year, but lives
over on the surface of the potato.
The trouble may be obviated by
soaking the potatoes to be used for
seed in corrosive sublimate solution
or in formalin solution. The Col
orado station publishes the following
formulas:
Corrosive sublimate, 1 ounce; water,
8 gallons. Dissolve the corrosive
sublimate in one gallon of hot water,
then dilute with seven gallons of wa
ter. Allow the potatoes to soak one
and one-half hours. When dry they
may be cut and planted, though it has
been found to be good practice TO
treat the potatoes week or more be-
fore planting, since the treatment
may retard termination if done just
before planting. Corrosive sublimate
is a deadly poison, and it should be
used in wooden or earthen vessels.
since it corrodes metals.
Formalin, ounces; water, Is gall
Ions. Soak the potatoes two hours in
this solution, preferably but short
time before planting. This solution is
somewhat more expensive than The
corrosive sublimate treatment, but it
has the advantage of being non-pois-
onous, and it may be used in any kind
of vessel.

Co-operatlon Among Entomororl.t..

Recently the entomologists' of Mon
tana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon
met to formulate plans for suppressing
the injurious insects that infest those
states. 1t is probably the beginning
of much cooperation in this matter.
AS it has been, the authorities in each
state have been doing what they could
under considerable difficulties. This
conference was called to enable the
entomologists to talk over their vari-
GUS problems together. Doubtless this
alone added much to their ability to
take effective measures against the in
sects. This is especially necessary in
the case of such insects as the Cod
ling moth, which has not yet got n
firm FOOT Did in the states named
Without doubt all of our states could
find much in common for such con-
ferences. Sooner or later there will
have to be evolved some general plan
of working in the country as a whole
without regard to ST; te boundaries.

cams Now UndIsputea ohamplon.

Joe Cans defeated Frank Erne so
quickly in the battle for the light
weight championship as to cause
Erne's friends to make the cry of
"fuke." The quick result was indeed
surprising, but as the majority OF
fight followers thought before the bout
that Cans would win, the claim of
"fuke" will not get much of a hear
ing.
Cans now has tight grip on the
championship and under the crafty
management of Al HEREFORD is likely to
hold the title for long time to come.
Cans is the first colored fighter who
ever won the title. AS fighter he is
entitled to the honor, but the regret
goes with it that Cans has a reputa-
ton for dishonesty that not even his
position as champion will wipe out.
