of lime-sulphur of 32 degrees B. is 1.2S5. The density or strength of the ime-sulphur solution is found by us ing hydrometer. This is an instru- ment similar to the lactometer used in creameries. These hydrometers can be obtained from Bausch & Lomb Optical Co., Rochester, N. Y. for about one dollar.
 How and Where to Get Lime Sulphur
 Solution.
 There are three types or kinds of limeand sulphur spray
 1st. The comercial solution which may be purchased in quarts, gallons or by the barrel. This is the easiest form for the small grower to obtain.
 End. The home made lime-sulphur solution which is similar to the com mercial except that it does not test as high. This can be made by boiling sulphur and slacked lime together and is cheaper than the commercial for the large grower who must have special equipment for the cooking.
 3rd. Soluble sulphur compound or powdered lime-sulphur which dissolves readily in water. As a summer spray this cannot be used with arsenate of lead.
 For the smaller grower the writer would advise purchasing the commer- cial lime-sulphur solution from your local druggist or hardware dealer. The Connecticut Agricultural College will be glad to furnish a list of firms which handle lime-sulphur solution.
 The next spraying for apples and pears is just as the flower buds sep arate or show pink. The spraying at this time is for Apple Scab, Cooling Moth, Bud Moth and it will also con- trol the tent caterpillar and any other eating insect. Use one and one-half gallons of lime-sulphur solution, about two and one-half pounds of the arsen- ate of lead paste or half this amount of the powdered arsenate, to the bar rel Be very particular to cover all the opening buds and leaves with the spray material.
 This second spraying Is often omit ted where scab or bud moth are not serious. Some writers and growers advocate Bordeaux mixture for this spraying rather than e-sulphur bu often the lime-sulphur solution Is or | hand and it Is satisfactory. Caution! Cover every branch anC | twig, upper side as well as the lowe with the spray material. Poor spray | ing is time and material wasted.

The special committee in charge of the building of the new almshouse awarded the contracts for the installa- tion of the heating and plumbing sys- tems in the building to the firms of Hopson and Chapin and H. l.. Mo- Guire, which were the lowest bidders of the bids opened Tuesday afternoon.

first week can be lowered at the rate ot live degrees per week and after the ntth week the chickens will not need any heat except on very cold nights. The operators of all breeders should be very careful in making this IT they are the least bit cold and it is important that the first few nights when the heat is taken away entirely should be warm enough to assure the operator that there will be no danger of crowding before morning. IL is not wise to remove the hover until the chickens are well accustomed to going without heat because, this will afford them some protection in case of a quick change of temperature during the night
 In operating breeders in which the heat is supplied by kerosene lamps, 1t is very important that the lamps be cared for as carefully as incubator lamps. This means cleaning and trim ming once every day and the use of a good grade of kerosene to prevent smoking. Coal stoves require less care than kerosene heaters, but they must be attended to regularly twice a day and the fire should be cleaned regu- larly because the stove is small and the grate becomes easily clogged, thus shutting off air and causing the fire to go out. The gasoline brooder re- quires the least attention of any
 brooder on the market at the present time. Using a good grade of gasoline filtered, and with the burner thor oughly cleaned at the end of each
 season, the only requirement for the | gasoline brooder is the filling of the tank every two weeks and the regu- \ lating of the flame to any unusual changes of temperature.

TIMELY ADVICE ON SPRAYING.
Spray Now for San Jose and Fungus
 Troubles.

Now is the time to spray your ap- pies, pears, quinces, peaches, plums, cherries, entrants and gooseberries with lime-sulphur solution, advises s. F. Hollister of the horticultural de- partment of the Connecticut Agricul- tural College. This is the Dormant" spray and is used before the buds open, to control San Jose scale. On peaches it will also control peach leaf curl This spraying acts as gen eral cleaning agent" It tends to keep in check many of the fungus troubles and leaves the entire surface of the plant protected with an armour con ststing of very thin layer of the dried ltme-sulphur solution. This coat on the surface of the bark affords a very caustic seat for young San Jose scale and they perish unless they are able to establish themselves upon unprotect- ed bark; hence the necessity of thor ough spraying. Scores of fungous dis eases are killed if they germinate on this layer of dried spray material.
 When we refer to the dormant spray of lfme-sulphur we have in mind the commercial material, testing about 3z degrees ''Baume." this should be dilut- ed about one to ten. This means that in making up a barrel of spray We l use five gallons of the commercial, l lime-sulphur solution and forty-ffve gallons of water. This gives us g 1 spray solution which will not injurt | the trees or plants when they art ! dormant Nothing else is added to the
 spray at this spraying. If the lime,
 sulphur tests less than S2 degree! ''Baume'' more of the material shoulC be used and less water
 1 Degrees ''Baume" refers to the den
 sity or strength of the solution. Tn, ] specific gravity of water is 1000. tha

AFTER PLANTS START GROWING
That is the Time to Top Dress Grass
 Land at Smallest Expense.

The agricultural adviser found sev- eral instances last spring where the hay producer had top dressed his grass land altogether to early. In many other instances, men had top dressed too late The proper time to put on fertilizers as a top dressing of grass land is soon after the grass has a good start. Since nitrate of soda is extremely soluble and readily availa- ble it requires only very short time to get it in the soil and in solution so that plants can avail themselves of 1t. Consequently 1t should not be spread until the plants are ready for it. This means soon after the plants start to grow. Otherwise if there should be considerable late rain. a large amount of available nitrogen will be lost. Wherever a good stand of grass Is found. top dressing should be practiced. If a poor stand is found top dressing will not be profitable es- pecially this year with the high prices of fertilizer materials.

 Lime and lnocuIation for Soybeans.
 For best growth lime in some form is desirable; however, soybeans may be grown satisfactorily without lining as the crop is not very sensitive to acidity in soils. Inoculation is always desirable for soybeans though not ab- solutely essential After growing the crop for two successive years good inoculation usually occurs. Any good commercial culture may be used, but where soil from an old soybean field can be obtained 1t Is preferable.

TO REGULATE RRooDERs.
Great Care Must Be Taken to Keep Temperature Right for Young Chicks.


 Although there are a great many varieties of breeders in use at the present time the method of rearing chickens by artificial means is the same for all of them A good brooder should be capable of supplying a tenn perature of 100 degrees for the chick ems in the coldest weather, and should also be adaptable to the breeding of chickens in very warm weather so as to get a temperature below 90 degrees. Breeders should be large enough to accommodate the chickens without the are three or four weeks old, and the heat should be confined beneath the hover rather than radiating through out the entire room. The room in which the chickens run should be kept at a temperaure of about 50 degrees, much lower than this, providing the heat in the hover is high enough to give the chickens all the heat they need at any time.
 When chickens are removed from the incubator they should be placed in degrees and in cold weather this tenn perature should be held for the first week. It is much easier to regulate the heat in the brooder by watching the chickens than by watching the
 thermometer. The day temperature Is not so important as the night tenn perature so long as it is warm enough, because the chickens can, go away from 1t any time they wish. At night there should be a sufficient amount of heat to keep the birds away from the
 center of the hover, but not enough to
 force them so far away from the hover that they will get lost In the dark 1 in trying to seek a warmer place
 Where hovers with cloth curtains are | used the chickens should be left with their heads just sticking out beneath | the curtain and in a ring at a suitable | distance from the center of heat. Dur ] ing warm weather 1t Is not necessary | to run the heat as high as in cold
