tBy C. C. WAGGANS, Missouri College of
Agricultural
Summer spraying is essential in the
production of frst-class apples. I'm
sprayed fruit is usually scabby and
very often shows injury from codling
moth or curculio. Wormy or diseased
fruit has poor keeping qualities. Thus,
in order to have fresh apples during
winter months, it is necessary to prac-
tice summerospraying.
Spraying consists of applying to the
growing fruit and leaves some sub
stance which will either kill or pre-
vent the growth of the insects and dis
ease spores. Some form Of arsenic is
used to kill the insects, lead arsenate
being the most common form. It may
be purchased at local drug stores and
costs from ten to twenty-five cents a
pound. Sulphur is very effective in
preventing the development of apple
scab and other fungous diseases, since
disease spores cannot develop in it's
presence. This substance in the form
Of concentrated lime sulphur may be
purchased from companies handling
spray supplies, and in small lots will
cost about fifteen cents per gallon.
The spraying schedule recommend
ed on the basis of the tests and ex-
perience Of the Missouri agricultural
experiment station calls for three
sprays during the season. The first, to
be most effective against the apple
scab, should have been applied just be-
fore the blossoms opened. This spray
Of lime sulphur at the rate of three
gallons Of commercial mixture to 100
in dry season, because scab can de-
velop only during damp weather.

recommend it to any woman suffering
from female weakness. You may pub
lish my letter if you wish. Mrs. JAMES
CoNLEY, 516 St Clair ST., Frankfort, KY.
No woman suffering from any form Of
female troubles should lose hope until
she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound fair trial.
This famous remedy, the medicinal
ingredients of which are derived from
native roots and herbs, has for forty
years proved to be most valuable tonic
and invigorator of the female organism.
All women are invited to write
to the Lydia Il. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co., Lynn, Mass, for special
advice,-it will be confidential.

AS there are many foods that can
not be properly cooked in water, the
modern caloric cookstove was invent
ed, SO that now baking and roasting
may be done as well as stewing and
boiling. The metal compartments
with the steatites or stones for heat
ing hold the heat for the desired
baking or roasting.
The following dishes may be pre-
pared and cooked in the fireless cook
er. You may go to town and do your
shopping, make call or spend the af.
ternoon with friend, or go to church
on Sunday and your meal will go right
on cooking as well as if you were
there.
Irish SteW.-Take pound and a
half of mutton, cut in small pieces,
brown two onions, sliced, in two ia
blespoonfuls of butter. Add the meat,
one carrot, eight small potatoes, one
stalk of celery, pepper and salt to
taste. Add boiling water to cover.
Put into the cooker with one hot ra
diator; cook four hours.
Beef a la Mode-Take five pounds
from the under portion of the round
the toughest part; wipe and trim off
all rough edges. Put into an earthen
dish and pour over it spiced vinegar,
using pepper, cloves, allspice, three
teaspoonfuls of salt, one cupful Of
vinegar, one chopped onion and half
teaspoonful of mustard; the same
amount of the other spices. Let the
meat stand overnight or all day, turn
ing it occasionally to season evenly.
Then drain, wipe and lard it with ten
or IL strips of salt pork. Remove it
to a kettle and brown it in hot fat
in which two onions and half car
rot have been fried. Add enough boil
ing water to cover, put in bag of
herbs, place in the cooker with one
radiator and cook six hours. Serve
with thickened gravy and potato
balls and small onions.
