Make a Hotbsd this Spring

A New Jersey market gardener
tells how to make and care for hot
beds, in the special gardening mum
Der of the Fruit-Grower st. Joseph
Mo-, and when n appreciates how
simple is the operation, it is a won
der that every farmer or W. the
city man who has a garden does
not have one. Lettuce can be start
ted in the hot bed and transplant
ed to the open; or me Ear finish
the crop of lettuce in the hotbed
if desired. Tomatoes should be
started in hotbeds in order to get
early fruit in growing tomatoes
in hotbeds one should transplant
them several times, in order to
get early fruit in growing toma-
toes in hotbeds one should trans
plant them several times in order
to make the plants stocky. Some
gardeners ven start onions in the
hotbed and transplant. This is a
tedious job OF course but it is also
a tedious job to weed the onions
which are planted directly in
the field, and much of this work
is saved when the onions are trans
planted.
The article in the Fruit Grower
will be a revelation to one who
has not tried them, in showing
how useful a hotbed can be in con
nection with any garden.

How to Prevent Peaches from
Rotting.

GNVssAhA6s
At last we have a remedy for pre-
venting the peach rot which SO Of
ten sweeps away the crop just as
it is ripening. This is a solution
known as self-boi,ed lime-sulphur.
Heretofore nothing could be done
to prevent the spread Of the rot
because the usual spraying materi-
ais caused too much injury to che
leaves of the trees.
An insect known as curculio help
to spread the rot by gouging holes
in the peaches. Sometimes this
bug punches holes in the fruit for
the purpose of depositing it's eggs
but more often it seems to do so
out of pure deviltry. The rot gen
orally starts from these wounds.
Paris green would poison the
%curcuiio but it Injuries the foliage
of the tree. Likewise Bordeaux
mixture would control the rot but
it is even more disastrous 20 the
leaves than Paris green. As a
substitute for Paris green a poison
known as lead assenate is used and
it has lately been found by the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
thai it can be combined with the
newly discovered self boiled lime
sulphur solution and both sprayed
on the trees at the same time, thus
controlling both the insect and the
disease.
Self-boiled lime-sulphur is pre-
pared as follows for 100 gallons:
Place i6 lbs. of fresh lime in a bar
rel and almost cover with water.
Weigh out 10 lbs. of sulphur ana
run through a sieve TO break up
the Jumps. AS the lime begins to
slack add the sulphur stirring i: in.
Continue stirring ana add more
water as needed to form a thick
paste at first and then gradually
a thin paste. The lime will supply
enough heat to boil the mixture
several minutes. AS soon as the
lime is well slaked, enough cold
water must be added 70 cool down
the whole mixture or it will be
ruined. Use enough water 20 bring
the entire quantity of the mass up
to 100 gallons.
Usa 4 lbs of a%rsenate of lead to
100 gallons of water, if used alone,
or to 100 gallons of the lime-sul-
phur if both are TO be used at the
same time.
Spray as follows: First with the
lead a~rsenate alone a lbs. TO 100 of
water, when the shucks are she'd
ding. The second spraying should
come from two to three weeks
later or about one month after the
petals drop, using the lime-sulphur
and poison combined. The last
application should be about one
month before the fruit ripens, US
ing the self-boiled lime-sulphur
alone.
The cost of materials, labor and
everything for three sprayings as
advised above, will amount to less
than five cents per tree.
A pamphlet treating the above
subject is being published and will
be sent free upon application to

good development later. but these in
stances are the exception rather than
the rule.
When calves come prematurely they
seldom develop as we'll as when born
at the proper time. II may pay TO rear
some pure breds that are thus born,
but it is questionable if it will pay to
rear such calves if they will be only
worth their meat or milk value when
grown. The same may be said OF
calves that are small and weak at
birth. While some of these may de
veiop into good animals the chances
are against such result.
Among the indications Of promise in
young calves are strength aud vigOr.
shown almost as soon as born. good
size and al least medium flesh. but it
would be going too far 10 say that
calves lean at birth may not be pos
seSsed of good development later
Leanness at birth may have been
caused by influences in the dam which
may not work any serious harm TO
the calf.
When calves are to be reared for
the dairy there are certain indications
which it may be well to look for.
These include an udder well formed
and with teats well apart; also one or
more Tudimentaries. which are said

A well known authority on the rails

only economic way TO produce porE
