one-half to Q cents. Within the first
fifteen minutes. however. the market
had not only regained all the opening
loss, but had In some cases advanced
to a point VI cents above the previous
days closing prices. The July option
opened at 96h to 9S and advanced to

touched $1.01 The December delivery
also touched $1.01. after opening at 80
cents to 81.
BY noon the market had become
sensationally strong and the activity
had extended into corn and oats.
Wheat, however, was still easily the
star attraction and a new record was
set when July, the most active option
at this season OF the year. made a
frenzied jump to S1.02. September
swept past the dollar mark without o
seconds hesitation and went In long
Jumps to $1.02A. The December op.

way to the dollar mark, eclipsed the
other options at noon by q quotation

er is made twenty inches in diameter
and in two parts, so that the screen
can be cleaned on both sides. A hard
brass screen thirty meshes to the inch
is used. For the lime-sulphur mixture
the screen is iron wire of the same
mesh. We also use box screen, iron
wire twenty-four meshes to the inch,
for straining the lime. All these
screens are made of generous proper
tons, SO as to minimize stopping and
expedite the work. The drawing shows
the rig as used for hand power, but we

SPRAYING OUTFIT.

Satisfactory Equipment In Treating
Orchard Pests.
The excellent spraying outfit shown
is In use on a Delaware fruit farm,
the owner Of which gives the follow
ing account of it in American Agricul-
turist:
I use an elevated wagon platform
with the upper platform on only two
uprights. It is above where the limbs
usually meet in an orchard. There are
but four inches then to touch the outer
edges of limbs and the machine meets
few obstacles in the ordinary orchard.
Note also that the men are usually
spraying downward instead of upward
and that the driver Is far ahead Of the
men spraying. Several good results
are obtained by this arrangement.
First, the men can spray all day long
without undue exertion, something
they cannot do if they hold the rods
up instead of down; second, the tops
of the trees are always sprayed; third.
neither the men spraying nor the driv-
ers get much If any of the mixture
blown upon them.
We can spray tomato plants three
inches high or trees thirty feet high
equally successfully from the elevated

CARELESS of whether there are weed
seeds and light, chaffy kernels among
them Or not. Some farmers | have
known to sow extra per acre Of unre-
cleaned seed the amount that would
be removed by tanning mill. That
is an easy way of getting over the re-
cleaning of seed grains, but it certain
IL is not conducive to best results.
Seed grain should be run over FAM
ming mill twice at least Never mind
if many kernels, perhaps half, so over.
They can be ground fine this to crush
the weed seeds so they may not pass
whole through the digestive tracts of
animals and sprout after all when the
manure is scattered on to land, and
fed to hogs. AS good tanning mills
will remove noxious weed seeds that
would be left in by poor ones, the
best machines should be purchased

Calf Seours.

The results of some experiments
made at Clemson college, South Caro-
lima, in the treatment of calf scours
are here given:
Twelve milk fed calves affected with
scours were treated by adding forma-
lin to the milk in the proportion Of one
part Of the drug to 1000 parts of milk.
Eleven recovered without any addi-
tional treatment, seven on the second
day after the use Of the formalin was
begun, three on the third day and one
on the ninth day.
The other calf, No. II, required addi-
tonal treatment, but finally recovered.
Three cases of scours in calves being
fed on grain and running at pasture
We're treated with formalin, but the
drug did not prove effective In this va
rlety of the disease.

some valuable suggestions as to which
