Effect Of sulphate Spraying.

Effect OF sulphate Spraying.
To ascertain the effect Of spraying
with iron sulphate for the destruction
OF weeds, in Minnesota, a pound and
q half Of the chemical was used with
each gallon Of water, on the weeds
named below, with the result shown:

leaves discolored, no injury; plantain,

Besides copper sulphate and iron
sulphate, other chemical sprays are
sometimes used to destroy weeds,
such as corrosive sublimate and
sodium arsenite. They should be used
only under exceptional circumstances
and with full understanding of their
poisonous nature.-W. L. Oswald.

One Of the greatest enemies that
the farmers have to contend with is
the Canada Thistle: 1t makes his land
look bad, diminishes his chances of
selling, and greatly reduces the crop
yield. What shall we do to rid our
selves Of this awful pest is the cry
of every industrious farmer? Many
different methods of eradicating the
Canadian Thistle have been suggested
by farmers and also by experiment
station men.
The scientific man tells us to cover
the patches with tar paper and there
by smother the plants. This is un-
doubtedly an absolutely safe method
and would be practical if one only had
a few small patches. But when your
entire farm is overrun, such method
is entirely impractical. Others tell us

Bordeaux Mixture.
The Minnesota Experiment Station
submits the following formula for
Bordeaux Mixture for potatoes:
Five pounds of bluestone (also

known as copper sulphate, or blue Wit
riol) and five pounds of the best grade
of stone lime, to fifty gallons of wa
ter. For fruit trees a 4-4-5O formula
may be used. The bluestone can be
dissolved most readily by hanging it.
near the top of the water. The lime
must be fresh and of the best grade
and should Stake readily. It should
be slaked several hours or more be-
fore it is wanted. When ready to ap-
ply the Bordeaux mixture, the blue
stone solution, containing the five
pounds OF bluestone, should be poured
into the sprayer barrel and diluted
to about thirty-five gallons. The
milk of lime, containing the original
five pounds OF stone lime, should then
be diluted to about fifteen gallons,
and poured into the diluted bluestone
solution. The resulting product is the
Bordeaux mixture, ready for use. Any
poison needed for potato BEETLES may
then be added, thus spraying for
blight and the potato bugs at the same
time.
If the lime used is of low grade,
there is danger of burning of the foli-
age from the Bordeaux mixture. A.
good test is to hold the point Of
knifeblade in the mixture for a short
time. If copper collects on the blade,
more lime must be added.
Throughout all this work it must be
remembered that high pressure in
spraying (not less than seventy-fys
peunds?. thorough application, con3
slant agitation and thorough straihing
are essentials to. success.-A. R.
