one kind Of insect may have no effect
whatever on another species. one
reason for this is that some insects
chew and devour their food, while
others pierce the tissue and obtain
their nourishInent by sucking the sap
Of whatever plant or tree they are To-
Gated upon.
The same thing IS true of fungus
diseases. One must know something
about the causes Of plant diseases and
their effect before the best results can
be expected from spraying.
In spraying for bitter rot or scab,
a good mixture to use is Bordeaux
and this should be applied before the
buds open to destroy the pores upon
the bark and twigs-
Another spraying from Il. five
weeks later should be given J. .cr
to cover such portions as hav. u

periments show that in orchards
where spraying has been done from
year to year that the accumulative

him justice, the husband is some
times unaware; and she does it all in
full faith that he will appreciate her
sacrifice, love her the better for it, and
that he will, as soon as his business is
on firm financial basis, be only too
glad to make it all up to her. In
about one case in a hundred it works

will be practically no injury from this

as an example as to the intelligence

from fire is worth while, how much
more valuable must be spraying in

ers and orchardists are becoming cog

fruit one must not only spray, but
spray intelligently.
To spray successfully one must be
provided with a proper equipment.
and he must know how to spray and
what he is spraying for.

IN housekeeping as to amount, not

out to a decided gain to her family
from her superior effectiveness. The

martial reconstruction the hOuSekeeper
may be saved many steps and much

the piping of water into the house,
the convenient location of pantry and

the provision Of drainage for slops,
sud the proper placing of heating ap-
paratus.
Describing one farm house badly in
need of such reconstruction Miss
Hattie NJ Wilson, of the Minnesota
School Of Agriculture, in a recent ar
tice says:
The writer has in mind one farm
where the well is located at the foot
Of q sleep hill ten or fifteen rods from
the house. Fancy carrying water up
that hill to supply the laundry needs
Of 4 large family, not to speak Of
cooking, drinking and necessary ablu-

In spraying peach trees to prevent
rot and leaf curl the spray should be
applied just before the leaf buds open.
The foliage OF peach trees is delicate
Bordeaux is applied it should be re
duced to one-half strength.
If Bordeaux is used when the frul.
is about ripe the peaches will be dis
colored. Many orchardists use the
coloress solution of copper carbonate
at this time but it does not have as
| good effect as the Bordeaux.
Nearly every one is familiar with

rust produces on infested leaves: While
| the greatest injury undoubtedly re-
suits from the left spots, there is also
a considerable loss due to rusted

| variable, both as TO size and shape
and they may be green, yellow, or q

from the gals on red juniper (cedal
appIes). The infection may be re

partially successful, whereas the de
