HORTICULTURAL Notes.

The American plums are great
bearers.
The Japanese plums do not do well
In the northwest.
Blackberries should be heavily fer
tilted or they will not do their best.
Plums must be protected from the
curculio If they are to give satisfac-
ton.
There is little satisfaction in trying
to grow a garden on pott cell not
properly enriched.
Every farmer that has few fruit
trees only should learn the science Of
protecting them by spraying.
An apple grower says that there is
never an over-supply of good apples.
The over-supply is Of poor fruit.
In pruning the grape, il is neces-
sary to have a good deal Of technical
knowledge. Pruning too much will
prevent fruit production On account
of removing the wood that should bear
the fruit; while pruning too little will
allow a large development of vines
at the expense of fruit.

BITTER ROT OF APPLES.
Proper Spraying with Bordeaux Mix
ture Will Save Crop.

AS the result of experiments con-
Quoted by the Illinois station, the fol-
lowing conclusions have been reached
regarding bitter rot of apples and its
treatment:
Bordeaux mixture properly made
and applied will save over 80 per cent.
of the fruit liable to attack by bitter
rot.
Fruit sprayed in such a manner as
to be thoroughly coated with the
spray mixture when the first infec-
ton of the disease appears will be in
jured least by bitter rot.
Spraying until the fruit is complete
ly coated with the mixture as soon
as the first infection of bitter rot is
discovered is of considerable value but
Is much less effective than the treat
ment mentioned above.
Spraying until the fruit is complete
ly coated with the mixture after bit
ter rot has become thoroughly estab-
lshed is effective in controlling as
much as so per cent. of the disease
during some seasons. In other season
its effect as a remedy is very slight.
Bordeaux mixture applied in the
liquid form is the most effective spray
ing material for the control of apple
bitter rot.
Pure copper sulphate solution failed
to check the disease and caused in
jury to the foliage.
To coat fruit thoroughly with the
mixture it is necessary to make at
least three applications of the spray
material
Applications of rs pounds of salt to
the ground about tree have no value
In checking the disease.-W. Paddock.
