 With severe frosts late in the spring, killing frosts promptly on time in the Tall and rather cool weather prevailing be- tween the two points, the summer of 1904 was disappointing in some respects with me. It has cut my crop of melons, late tomatoes, late sweet corn etc., very short. The gardener has to take some risks. He plants early running the risk of injury to plants by late spring frosts. He plants late, expecting to have some good things very late in the fall, pro- vided early killing frosts do not interfere. As an average we gain more than we lose by running these risks, and while l know I am beaten in this game of chance this time. l am going to try my luck again next season, hoping that I will win

 Petroleum and San Jose Sca1e-Spray- ing with crude petroleum in full strength has again proved a perfect success. A considerable percentage of my apples last year were utterly unfit for sale, or any thing else but stockfood, on account of being spotted all over with the scale. Many many barrels of otherwise good fruit were thrown into the hogpen or fed to the cattle and horses. The one rather hasty application of the petroleum late in April or early in May of this year. on trees already with open buds, and from the wind side only shooting the fine mist-lilse spray all through the tree limbs, has almost entirely annihilated the San Jose pest without inJuring leaf or bud, so that our apples and pears are now almost absolutely free from the tell tale red spots and the limbs and twigs are clean. A few trees which we did not think it worth while to spray. as we in- tended to cut them down, bear apples as badly spotted as any of chem were last year. more thorough spraying next spring from bott sides (perhaps at dif- ferent times, so as to always spray with the wlndJ will certainly give us rest from the San Jose scale for some years to come. This treatment also appears to improve the general health and thrift of the trees.
