THE FARMERS LOSS.
Neglect Of the Orchards a Serious
Mistake.

Volumes have been written and
libraries will be written covering or.
chard possibilities. Fruit growing in
the United States on business princi.
pies is practically in it's kindergarten
state to-day and as usual the personal
equation cuts very large figure In 1t.
Those who have orchards which they
handle on business principles and
work them as producers of fruit and

and snug harbors for insect and fun.

greater revenue and this increased
revenue is coupled with decreased
cost, for by spraying they have prac.

neighbors who don't believe in spray

and care. One of the most noted or
chardists in the United States arose
in the midst of a big audience OF soil
tillers one evening and pied as fol-
lows: Let the old back numbers go.
Don't urge them to spray. Let their
trees die and rot. We commercial
growers are reaping the benefit and
getting more money for our fruit each
year, as We no longer have even the
variable every other year competition
of the old-time orchards"
The foregoing quotation is taken
from the Long Island Agronomist, and
well illustrates the fact that what is
the farmers loss is the commercial
fruit growers gain. OF course, re-
marks the Farmers Review, 1t is the
farmers own business as to whether
he takes the proper care of his or
chard and makes a profit from 1t or
not. but 1t is matter to which his
attention should be called. II one
farmer can make money out of fruit

time, then another farmer can do the
same, providing he applies the same
kind of business methods. It Is al

When Cultivation Paid.

The advantage Of orchard cultiva.
tion was clearly demonstrated the
past year In almost all sections where
there was opportunity of comparing
the clean cultivation and sod systems.
II was easily noticeable that the
drouth during the season did not ma
terially AFFECT cultivated or mulched
orchards, but in grass orchards half
the crop dropped before maturity. The
grass took up the moisture to such an
extent that the trees suffered and con.
seQuently the fruit dropped. When
the soil was under cultivation and q
dust mulch was provided to prevent
evaporation the supply of soil water
was held for the use Of the fruit trees.
A full crop of fruit. according to the
metAod praoticed, was the result

Prof. Franklin Sherman, North Caro-

With all its variations, bordeaux Is
an excellent mixture. This one is all
right: Bluestone four pounds, stone
lime four pounds, water so gal

piece of coarse cloth sack, or, better
in a small basket, and hang 1t in a
tub or keg containing four to eight
gallons water, so that the bluestone
shall be just under the surface Do
this the evening before 1t is desired
to spray and it will be dissolved by
morning. After 1t is Dissolved add wa
ter to make 25 gallons of this blue
stone solution. This must be kept in
wooden receptacles. Place the lime
In tub or keg and slake slowly with
water, so that the action shall be
complete. When the shaking is con.
pleted add water to make 25 gallons.
II the bluestone solution and the
lime solution are kept separate, they
may be kept throughout the season.

quantities of the two solutions and

with a proposition to make planting
pots out of lime and manure or similar
substances, says the Rural New
Yorker. They are to be moulded into
shape and dried. The theory is that
the pot would feed the plant. The
trouble thus far has been that such
pots cost too much.
