HINTS FOR FARMERS


For the treatment of the early blight
and late blight of potato and the leaf
blight of tomato our recommendation
are essentially the same as in previous
years to spray with bordeaux, says
Dr. Wood of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Every years eX-
perience confirms the conclusion that
when this is done thoroughly and in
tellaI"tly it is highly profitable,
whether there is a serious outbreak of
disease or not, since there is added to
the protection from fungi the stimulat-
Ing effect of the bordeaux on the plant
which keeps it free from tip burn.
The deterrent properties of bordeaux
against insects are also important. In
the northern tier of states, where the
late blight of potato is prevalent, two
sprayngs in August and September
are usually sufficient but in the coun-
try as Il whole the farmers should be
advised to use bordeaux in conbina-
ton with an arSenite instead of paris
green alCne whenever poison is rcqu!r-
ed for the Colorado beetles. This usu
ally means about five applications ana
assures against all disease. and, fur
thermore, it protects the plants from
injury from arsenical poisons.

The practice of seeding land to
clover with some small grain crop is
often criticised on the score that we do
not treat the valuable clover plant as
fairly as we do the ordinary crops of
the farm. says National Stoc&man
The latter are given the land a.one
But, if we stop to think, the criticism
is not well based, because corn, oats
and potatoes are ANIMALS, requiring Il
single summer to reach their maturity,
while the common clover is a biennial.

Feeding Mature Rams.

The object in feeding mature rams
should be TO keep them in thrifty, very
vigorous condition and not too fat, ana
this can only be brought about by rea-
sonable, wholesome food and sufficient
exercise, says American CultlFator
When once a ram has been made too
fat it is difficult matter to thin nm

1t is just as easy to rear queens from

American Agriculturist. The difference
in the price of good queen for breed

which she will produce Is considered.
AS to the profit of n good queen over n
poor one, there is no comparison a
