the checks rotted completely.
2. Four applications, when made
just at the right time, are sufficient to
control the disease satisfactorily Int
in order to be sure Of covering the In
lection periods one or two additional
applications may be necessary
g. The applications should be mado
at intervals OF two weeks. beginning
about six weeks after the trees bloom
T. II ia necessary to spray the trees
thoroughly, coating the fruit on all!
sides with fine mist.iikc applications.

DRYING WEATHER.
Corn Very Sensitive TO the Condition
Of the Atmosphere.

in the drying OF corn in the cribs
the condition OF the weather counts
for far more than most people sup.
pose. The corn seems almost like a
sponge. the way It pulls in moisture
from the atmosphere. In some ex.
periments carried on by the Univer.
atty, of Illinois. the corn In two cribs
was weighed every week from Janu.
AIRY Z, 1904, to November 10 OF the
same year. A record was kept OF the
condition Of the weather and Its effect
was clearly noticed In the shrinkags
or gain in weight OF the approximately
10000 pounds Of corr. During the
week from January 7 to January Il
the weather was clear and mild and
the corn increased In weight l6O
pounds. That is, It actually absorbed
that weight Of water from the atmos.
phere The next week was cloudy and
the corn absorbed 45 pounds more OF
water. The next two weeks were dry,
with snow, and the corn lost 205
pounds of water. From July : TO July
ID the wind was mostly in the south
and the weather was damp. The corn
added TO Itself 175 pounds Of water.
The week from September 20 to Sep
TENDER 20 was reported as dry and
hot, but the corn added to itself 1856
pounds of water. The moisture must
have been excessive In the atmos.
phere. A record of the moisture CON
ditions Of the atmosphere would be
a good thing to go with the report Of
weather conditions, in comparing rec.
ords of shrinkages ard gains In
weight OF stored corn.

Horses DRINKING CAPACITY

A horse can drink from IS to 65
pounds OF water per day. II the feed
is dry, all of this amount will have to
be supplied at the trough. If the feed
contains a great deal of succulent
green stun, large amount of the
water will be taken into the system
In that way and less will be needed at
the trough. The safe rule to follow Is
