In taking up plants to put in the

sure to cut OF all the bruised parts

Newly potted plants sometimes do
not do we'll at first. Don't expect too
much OF your plants until they are
well established. AS soon as new
feeding roots are formed the plant

too much water which has soured tho

Of the soin feels dry to the touch.
II you have large east window

a strong shelf below the sill and nail
a wire arch or grill across the top Of
the window. When you dig your

healthy roots and put two or three

Leaf Showing Injury.

When the field is plowed up, II they
are numerous they may feed upon the
strawberry root and do considerable
harm.
The remedy is to grow some other
croI than grass or strawberries on the
land until they are starved out.
The Crown Borer 10 q beetle some
what similar to the Plum Curculio.
They deposit their eggs in June or
early July. The eggs hatch into larvae
that eat their way into the crown and
there in feeding, mine out the crown
more or less.
These beetles do not migrate very
badly, SO the best remedy Is to rotate
the crop, putting no strawberries on
land that has been in strawberries
during the previous few years, pro-
vided these insects are serious.

WAY TO SPRAY STRAWBERRIES
Leaf Blight Causes Spots on Leaveo
and Weakens Plants-Remedy
for Leaf Roller.
Ry W. n. CHANDLER.D

Ry ". II. CHANDLERp
Leaf blight is disease which causes
spots on strawberry leaves. With
some varieties 1t very seriously weak
ems the plants. Varieties like Aroma
and Gaudy very largely resist II.
Spray with Bordeaux mixture after
the crop is harvested, probably after
renewing has been done, and give
three or four sprayings at intervals of
two weeks. On badly infested beds
after the crop is off, NOV everything
down and let it dry and burn of when
there is brisk wind, then follow with
spraying.
The strawberry leaf roller Is moth
that appears in the spring, depositing
eggs on the leaves. When the eggs
hatch, the larvae feed upon the leaves,
folding the leaves over and fastening
them by means Of a silken thread.
They thus eat only on the inner side
Of this folded leaf. They sometimes
seriously injure the plants. causing
them to dry up. There are two broods
year. The second brood appears
shortly after the strawberries have
been gathered.
The surest remedy for this insect Is
to NOW down the plants and weeds
and burn the bed of shortly after the
strawberries have been picked. Spray
ing when the berries are about one
half grown with arsenical poison will
kill the insect, but 1t is difficult to
spray strawberries as they are 80 soon
ripe after they set. The burning off
process recommended does not seem
10 be entirely harmless to the straw
berry field. as occasionally some
plants will be killed and 1t will
thus be more difficult to secure good
row for the next year.
The white grub that bothers us in
the garden sometimes may be a fairly
troublesome insect in the strawberry
field. The insect feeds upon the roots
OF some plants, especially grasses.

HORTICULTURAL
:aHQHNOTES@Bs;e

Most small fruits form their fruit
buds in the spring.
The quickest growing tree 7or a
shelter belt is the willow.
Remember that the wood ashes
are the best kind Of fertilizer for the
orchard, lawn or garden.
The city dealer profits by the lad-
ness OF the grower by grading and re-
packing his badly assorted sruit
young fruit trees that were plant
ed in the autumn Of last year, or IN
the spring Of this year, should be e1.
amined carefully.
That corky old apple, the Ben Davis,
still holds q high place in the city
markets because Its fine appearance
deceives the ignorant buyer.
In very dry weather fruit buds are
formed quite early and in case OF a
wet fall immature fruit buds some
times change into leaf buds.
Unless rotten apples are promptly
removed from the orchard, fruit pests
will have an ideal place in which to
hibernate during the winter months.
After the raspberries are through
fruiting, the old canes are taken out
The canes made this year will pro-
duce the fruit next year. Burn the
prunings.
Cantaloupes should not be grown
near squash, pumpkin of cucumber
vines, as the pollen will mix, giving
the cantaloupes favor Of the squash
or cucumber.
Spray the apples twice with Bor'
deaux mixture to prevent injury from
bitter rot. Put arsenate Of lead in 1t
to destroy Iate-hatched insects, such
as the fall web worm.
Spraying with kerosene emulsion is
one Of the best remedies for the rose
leaf hopper. Make the first applica'
tion as the pest first appears and re-
peat as often as is necessary.
Strawberry plants that have been
grown all summer in pots and set this
month will bear next spring. Use an
abundance Of manure in preparing
the ground, to insure q good crop.
