ORCHARD SPRAYING.


The writer's twenty -four acre or
shard. which has recently come into
bearing, will be sprayed for the first
time this year. The work win be car
ried on under the supervision Of the
Iowa experiment station at Ames, and
the orchard will be handled as an ex-
perimental tract, q portion OF which
will be left unsprayed with view to
serving as a check and demonstrating
the advantage of commercial spraying.
We hope to be In shape when the crop
Is harvested in the fall to present tab
ulated results. The estimates for the
spraying materials needed for the three
or four treatments are: Copper sui
plate, 900 pounds; acetate Of lead, IS
pounds; arsenate of soda, 80 pounds;
paris green, so pounds. The second
and third materials mentioned will be
used in the manufacture of arsenate of
lead. One spraying will be given just
after the leaf buds break and before
the blossoms open, second just after
the blossoms fall. For both Of these
paris green will be used, as its parti-
cles are heavy and more readily settle
into the tube at the blossom end of
the apple, where 80 per cent Of the
larvae of the codling moth feed before
they enter the core. Two later spray
ings will be given with the arsenate Of
lead, the first from fifteen to twenty
days after the blossoms fall and the
last between the middle Of July and
the first Of August to prevent the at
tack of the late brood Of codling moths.
With each of the four sprayings mem
toned the bordeaux mixture will be
used for the purpose of guarding
against the fungous diseases. This is
made by dissolving one pound of cop
per sulphate in eleven gallons Of water
and adding an equal weight of stone
lime. The arsenate Of lead mentioned
is sufficient for two sprayings Of 1850
gallons each, or a pound to flfty-seven
gallons of water. The work will be
done with horsepower sprayer with
tank of 200 gallons capacity. The
spraying is done with the wind, which
reduces the danger to the operator
from the poison spray to practically
nothing. a jumper, overalls, pair Of
gauntlet gloves and broad brimmed
oiled hat complete the outfit. Numer-
Gus instances have come under our no.
tice during the past year in which
sprayed orchards in localities where
the practice was not common were the
only ones to bear any marketable fruit
The time is at hand when, with the
orchard as with every other line of ag-
ricultural work, it is realized that the
best possible results are only obtaina-
BILE through the application Of the most
scientific and practical methods.

ROOT MAGGOTS.


mOn~-HOw to Prevent Them
BY f. II. CHITTENDEN
Three kinds of root maggots have
been extremely injurious during recent
years the cabbage maggot, the i'm
ported onion maggot and the seed corn
naggot. The last named Is nearly onl-
nipresent and omniyorous.
Vegetable growers frequently find
that planted seed fails to develop and,
on looking for the cause, discover a
small white maggot. which, from early
observed occurrence on seed corn, has
been termed the seed corn maggot. In
more recent years it has often been as
ISOLATED with injury to beans, whence
another name, bean fy'' Many other
vegetables are subject to damage, cab
bage, turnip, radish, peas, onions, beets
and seed potatoes being often much af-
fected. This insect is generally dis
tributed in the United States. 1t re-
sembles the common house fly.

that the exposure of the crimes and

trust. But if the exposures do affect

disgraceful methods that will enable it

Filters.

DURE water is matter of much
concern during the coming warm
months. Water clear as crystal can
be had by using the Cleveland filter.
This solves the problem of how to
secure pure drinking water.
Simple in construction and easily
kept clean. Filtration is secured by
percolation through a porous stone,
the stone is easily cleaned and kept
in good working order by scrubbing
with a stiff brush, holds % quarts,
and will filter fast enough to supply
any large family.
Positively the best filter known to
the trade, and sells for $3.50. After
using for a season, you wouldn't do
without if it would cost three times
as much. only $3.50.
