Water With Meals.

Most people are better off for TAX
ing some water with their meals. Wa
ter is an aid to the chemical activities
OF digestion, and is furnished by the
body itself in large amount. The gas
trio juice, Of which the stomach
makes about pint and a half per
meal, is made up of nine hundred and
ninety-ave parts of water per thou
sand. By drinking water with our
meals we help to furnish a part of
the digestive juices. Whether the
amount should be part of a glass or
several glasses can be determined only
by the experience of its effects by the
individual. Such water should not be
taken ice-cold not very hot. A healthy
appetite, the appetite of hunger, like g
healthy mental appetite, needs no
sensational drinks.

PROTECT The FACE
WHEN USING SPRAY
VaseIine or Lard will Prevent
Sore Eyes and Cracked Fin
gerS-AIS0 Use Gloves.

In dealing with strong solutions OF
lime sulphur, the fruit grower must
protect himself After his eyes begin
to smart and his fingers crack open,
he learns that goggles and rubber
gloves are splendid protection. Vase
line or lard smeared on face and
hands affords relief Heavy leather
gloves are serviceable when creased
or soaked with machine OIL. Some
men prefer miscible oils for dormant
spraying as they are more pleasant to
handle. Arsenate of lead and bor-
deaux sprays in the summer are not so
disagreeable.
The man who sprays for ten or
twelve hours and runs between trees
to save time, studies out many little
tricks of saving his strength. A
change of position, and an occasional
rolling of the head keep the neck
from stiffening. A change of hands
or shifting of their position tends
to keep the arms from paralyzing. 1
like to separate my hands widely, let
ting the rod balance loosely in the
right hand and sliding it in and out
for different limbs, twisting the pole
with the left hand, which rests on the
shut-off valve of an improved leakless
type.
When dragging the hose about, it is
easy to drop the hand down to the
end of the hose itself. This saves
many bursted hose connection, and
broken stop-cock or extension rod.
Never pull on the rod. Hug the left
elbow in close to the hip and drag the
hose by the weight of your whole
body, not simply by the power of your
arm. Pull the hose up this way a
little farther than you need it each
time, then back up one step and take
advantage of the slack. A half-inch
hose filled with water is no joke to
drag about quickly all day, often
through the mud, but the experienced
sprayer soon learns the knack Of
handling it ON the run. A smaller
hose, while much lighter, reduces
pressure by giving too much friction.
