Tons of Mail by Parcel Post.

Postmaster Burely has COMPLETED a
count of the Parcel Post mail at the
Frederick postofiice. both incoming and
outgoing for a period Of IS days. The
hgues shows that in this time more than
two and one-half tens of matter in this
class of mail, passed through the office.
and that total Of 6,74r parcels were
handled, or an average of about 45o par
GELS each day.
The count also reveals rather a sur
prising condition, showing by far that
the greater number Of parcels remain in
r ederick City, instead OF going into the
county as might be supposed. OF the
4, ,2o8 parcels received at the Frederick
office the distribution was made as fol-
lows: BY city carriers, 1,742; by general
delivery, 966; by Parcel Post wagon car
rier, IN city, $50, a total OF 1860 parcels,
leaving 10 the rural carriers only 642 par
GELS TO be delivered or only about one
fifth OF the total number received.
In the fifteen days Frederick sent out A
total OF 2 533 parcels. or only about so
per cent. of the total number of parcels
received.

A BANNER CROP.

Indeed, too much Importance cannot
be attached to the sprayings for fruit
protection against insects and disease.
Often the whole crop is lost through
injury by Curculio, followed by Brown
Rot. The Curculio winters in the
adult stage, appearing just as the foli-
age develops on peaches and plums.
1t feeds upon the foliage for little
while, then, the female beetle, laying
her eggs, does the principal injury to
the fruit by making a semi-circular
cut in which it's eggs are laid The
egg matches in short time and the
small larva makes its way into the
center of the fruit and there develops.
The fruit rots and drops, the larva,
escaping into the ground and later de.
veloping into the adult beetle
The beetle is controlled by spraying
with Arsenate of Lead at the rate of 2
pounds to so gallons of water. This
poison is usually combined with the
self-boiled lime sulphur wash, a fungi.
eide which will control Brown Rot.
The self-boiled lime sulphur is made
by shaking pounds of lime in suffi.
cient amount of water and adding s
pounds of sulphur when the lime be.
gins to slack. The mixture must be
kept stirred and the water added as
needed, to keep pasty condition until
the lime is all slaked. The heat gen.
Grated by the shaking lime causes the
sulphur to mix physically with the lime
in very fine state, but should not be
continued long enough to form much
of sulphide compound as shown by
the mixture taking on yellow or brown
color. The mixture is then strained
into the spray barrel and the arsenate
of lead added
CAUTION:-The Concentrated Lime
Sulphur Solution, such as is used in
dormant or early spring spraying
should not be used on peach or plum
foliage under any circumstances.
Where Brown Rot has previously ap,
peared, the first application of the
above mixture should be made just
after the fruit sets and before the
shucks are off the peaches. A second
application two weeks later is very
necessary and a third treatment
month before the fruit is ripe is very
desirable. Not only will this treat.
ment prevent injury from Curculio and
Brown Rot, but also from Peach Scab
and other diseases.

WHAT TO PAY FOR YOUR FERTL
LlZER.
How To Figure the Cash Value Of a
Fertilizer From the Analysis Given.
w. E. HANGER,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

When we buy commercial fertilizer
we are buying food for our crops Just
as we buy feeds for our livestock. It's
value per ton to us depends largely on
the kind of materials used in it's make
up. Fertilizers are generally spoken
of as 2-S-4 or 1875 fertilizers according
to their analysis, which means in the
case of the 2-8-4 fertilizer that it con.
tains per cent. Nitrogen, per cent
PhosphOric Acid, and per cent Pot
ash. So when we have the analysis
given, we ought to have good idea of
what a ton of fertilizer is worth
A simple and certain rule to follow
is to multiply the per cent. of nitrogen
by three, which in this case would be
2 times 8 or 6. Then add to this fig.
ure the per cent available of Phos,
phoric Acid and that of Potash, which
would mean with 2-8-4 fertilizer, s
plus plus or 18. By placing the
dollar sign before this last figure,
giving us SIS, you will have the ap-
proximate cash value of a 2-8-4 ferti-
lizer. If the amount of ammonia is
given instead of the nitrogen multiply
the per cent. of ammonia by 2h in
stead of 8.
To the value Of the fertilizer we
must add the cost of mixing the ma
terials which is commonly / Jckoned at
$5 ton and this added to $18 will
give $23 or close to what the selling
price of 2-8-4 fertilizer ought to be.
We, of course, take it for granted that
the fertilizer offered is up to it's guar.
antee. If you have any doubts, you
should write to the State Chemist at
College Park for the standing of the
fertilizer you think Of buying.
