spraying of apples and potatoes comes
in late May, June and July, and Is
likely to interfere with other work. 1t
is rather both ersome unless you study
the matter ca refully and order all the
machinery and spraying material be-
forehand. Pr bably you never did any

of two bushels per tree In favor of

average unsprayed tree sold for 81
cents, while that Of the sprayed trees
brought $2.35. Spraying in the aver
age year in Nebraska seems to in
crease the value of the apple crop SIT

er words, the profits of one years
spraying would pay not only for the
spraying materials. but also for the

the most important to keep worms
out OF apples. A moth lays worm eggs
in the blossom end OF the young ap-
pie. These eggs hatch into small
worms, which eat their way through
this end of the apple into the inside.
The object of the spraying IL to put
some Of the poison spray into the bios
som end Of each little green apple.
You will notice that this end OF the
green apple has FIVE green sepals. I'M

done after they have started to turn
inward, 1t is impossible to get much
of the spray In where the worms will
eat 1t. Since young apples point up
ward, the spraying, 30 far as posi-
BILE, should be done from above, SO
that the spray mist will shoot down
ward straight into the blossom ends.
So far as worms are concerned, a thor
ough spraying given just after the
blossoms have fallen Is worth more
than all of the other three sprayings.
In fact, in some regions where the
worm of the codling moth Ia the chief
enemy of apples, they give only this
single spray, the one just after the
blossoms have fallen Off.
3. Spray ten to twenty days after
the blossoms have fallen, with the
same mixture as for one and two. This
catches few of the worms after they
have Matched, and the lime sulphur
put on at this time Is a great help in
preventing blotch, rot and scab.
4. The last spraying Is given about
ten weeks after the blossoms have
fallen. At this time the second brood
of the codling moth lays more eggs.
This brood does not cause much dam

age, but it will probably pay to spray.
Limesulphur at this time continues to
help prevent rot, scab and blotch.
In the average year this system of
spraying means that one spraying
must be given in late April or early
May, another one about the middle OF
May, another the latter part of May.
and another about the latter part OF
July. You can figure out for yourself
how much spraying at these seasons
Of the year would interfere with the
rest Of your work. IL you would like
to spray, but feel that you have time
for only one spraying, give the sec

Fargo Would Secure
Better Freight Rates

Fargo, July Representative Of
three railroads conferred here today
with the state railroad commission
and representatives Of Fargo's manu-
featuring interests, on the question Of
reducing freight rates, the session be-
ing held at the county courthouse.
AS result of the conference, a
three weeks adjournment was taken,
at the end of which time the railroads
will be in position to state definitely
whether or not they are willing to
make any freight rate concessions in
this state.
In the event that they fail to do so,
Atty. V. r. Lowell of Fargo, represent
ing the Manufacturers association Of
this city, announced that a formal
complaint will be made, and this will
be taken up by the state railroad COM
mission in the proper form, a hearing
being called as soon as such COM
plant is made.
At this mornings conference, the
railroad representatives declared that
a reduction in the North Dakota rates
would bring them face to face with a
rate reduction in Montana, South Da-
kota, Minnesota and other states in
which the railroads operate, and
which are similarly situated.
Should state reduction in rates
take place the terminal points would
then come in, pleading for a restora-
ton of the status quo-seeking to re-
place their rate advantages on the
new basis.

Damp Weather Causes
Trouble for Printers

The rollers on a printing press
which pick up the ink from the iron
ink plate are made of combination
OF glue, glycerine and molasses. In
the early days Of the printing art a
buCkskin ball was used and in early
pictures you may see the printers devil
with the ball in his hands. Many peo-
pie, sometimes even printers, call
these rollers "rubber,' but they are
really glue and molasses. This COM
bination is the only thing so far dis
covered that does the work required,
but sometimes even that fails. And
when it does the paper is late, as the
TimeS-RecOrd was Thursday evening
In hot, damp weather these rollers
absorb moisture from the air and be-
come very much like jelly. When this
happen the rollers will not pick up
ink and will tear themselves to pieces

they must be taken out and washed
