For early tomatoes, before the neigh

A much worse selection of soil could
be made for tomatoes than clover sod.
With some additions OF animal ferti-
lizers ashes, potash salts, fish, acid
phosphate, etc. good crop should be
grown. Cutworms may trouble the
plants when first set. To Kill these
worms the best way is to scatter pieces
of green sod, the grass side sprayed
with a paris green solution here and
there over the field to be planted. A
paper collar placed around the stem
at time of setting the plants, with low
err edge entering in the ground, will
keep the marauders of.

The Conclusion.

AS kerosene, when applied pure, may
cause severe injury, the foregoing facts
explain why these *. L. mixtures
have injured some trees while others
were unaffected. The figures also ex-
plain why enough scales escape to
stock the trees with young, since 3
per cent or 3 per cent strength, such
as would be given by the lower layers,
would have practically no effect upon
the scales unless they were buried or
suffocated by the whltewash

THE X. L. MIXTURES.
WAY Their Action ON Trees and
Scales IL Variable.

Scales Is Variable.
One of the newer insecticide combi-
nations for treatment of San Jose scale
consists of a mixture of kerosene in
water produced by the use of lime in
very fine particles This combination
has been strongly recommended by
few experiment stations and has been
used on a large scale with a more or
less satisfactory degree of success by
some orchardists. 1t possesses an adj
vantage over the sulphur washes in re
quiring no boiling But tests made at
the New Jersey station during 1908 In
dictate that the lower strengths of the
tx. L." or kerosene lime, mixtures are
not efficient against scale and that the
stronger mixtures - those containing
larger percentages Of kerosene-are la
BILE to injure the trees because certain
portions Of the mixtures contain much
more Of the kerosene than other por-
tons. In other words, the mixture is
not uniform or not permanent.
In the original preparation of these
mixtures at the Delaware station a
commercial form of lime and other
forms Of water slaked or finely ground
lime were found to give about the
same results.
Various treatments of trees at the
New Jersey station with these prepare
lions resulted In a lack of uniformity
Of effect, some trees being seriously
injured or even killed by applications
that did not affect other trees In the
same series to any noticeable extent,
while even 40 per cent solution was
not wholly satisfactory in killing scale
The Mixture Separates.
Careful examination of the various
mixtures showed the lack of unformi-
ty to be due to imperfect emulsinca-
ton Of the ingredients-that Is, the
mixtures, though made by the same
formula, from similar ingredients and
handled the same way, would show
great variation in the amounts of true
emulsion of water and of precipitate,
as shown by layers into which the ma
terial soon separated on standing.
These variations showed that as or
dinarily made these TX. L." emuslons,
so called, may give at the nozzle pure
oil pure water, whtewash or an emul
sion BY chemical determinations far
the greater part of the kerosene is
found in the upper layer, while only
a small portion of the oil is carried to
the lower layer by lime as it settles
down.
