CHECK ON R0TTlNG POTATOES
Thousands Of Bushels of Tubers May
Be Saved by Application Of
SIaked or Hydrated Lime.

From many places comes complaint
of potato rotting. It seems not gen.
orally understood that by the proper
application of slaked, or, hydrated
lime, this rotting can be checked and
thereby thousands of bushels saved.
It is, however, generally understood
that potatoes should never be stored
in a place too damp to allow what
earth adheres to them to dry and rub
off.
Having them first well dried and
all rotten ones thrown out and those
besmeared carefully wiped dry, they
may be put into bushel baskets,
handful or about pint of lime poured
upon them, the basket shaken until
the lime has penetrated every crevice
of it's contents. They may now be
placed on small piles to remain there
until the final sorting. Ordinarily
at this final sorting it will be found
that some have taken dry rot which
does those lying against them no
harm. The drying up is due to the
action of the lime.
The writer has for many years used
lime in some way or another and al
ways with good results. The ques-
ton will no doubt be asked, what
amount Of lime can be used without
injury to the potatoes?" The writer's
answer is, II don't know, that depends
upon how wet the potatoes are"

DRESSING WOUNDS OF TREES
Experiments Conducted by New York
Station Show That Dressings Used
Are Often Injurious.

Experiments were started by tho
New York Station in 1911 and con-
Quoted for four years to determine
whether any coverings are necessary
for wounds of trees, as well as the
effect on the trees of various sub
stances used in treating wounds. The
trees used in the experiments were
apples and peaches and the sub
stances used as coverings were white
lead, white zinc, yellow ocher, coal
tar, shellac and avenarius carbolin-
cum. The dressings were applied
when the pruning was done at diff
ferent seasons of the year and upon
wounds of various ages.
From the results of this experiment
dressings commonly applied to prun-
ing wounds retard rather than &C
CELEBRATE the healing of the wounds.
The effects are the same whether the
dressings are applied when the
wounds are made or some weeks
later when the cut surface has dried
out. The effects of the dressings used
are so injurious to peach wood that
wounds on peach trees should never
be covered. For sprayed orchards at
least it appears unnecessary to apply
dressings to wounds under four or
five inches in diameter to prevent the
entrance of fungi. It remains to be
proved whether dressings have any
real value in covering large wounds.
The injury caused by dressings prob
ably offsets or even overbalances any
possible protection against decay.
OF the materials used shellac was
the least injurious and seemed to ex-
ert a stimulating influence upon the
wound for the first season. OF the
protective substances used white lead
is considered to be the best.

CAULIFLOWER I'M FAVOR
Vegetable Is Closely Related to
the Cabbage Tribe.
Very Rich Soil Required, and 1t Must
Be Given Most Particular Treat
nnent-Market Demands Snowy
White Heads.

Cauliflower is closely related to the
cabbage tribe, but much more refined
In its habits and more difficult to cul-
tivate. 1t requires very rich soil and
the most particular treatment, and no
farmer or gardener would be justified
In attempting its cultivation on large
scale, or to depend upon it as a market
studied its peculiarities and require
ments.
The market desires snowy white
heads, so that protection is universally
practiced to accomplish this purpose.
Three methods are used: (1) the
breaking of half dozen or more
leaves over the top of the caulifiower
head. The stems of the leaves are
not severed entirely, SO that the leaves
remain green. (2) Breaking or bend
ing over the leaves as just explained,
and pinning with toothpicks or small
pins. This is very satisfactory
method for all sections. (3) Bringing
the leaves together over the head and
tying. This is an excellent plan, but re-
quires more time than securing with
the toothpicks. The protection should
begin when the. heads are about an
inch and a half in diameter.
Caulifower is considered a delicacy
on most tables, and it pays to exercise
special care in the marketing. AL
though barrels are often used, crates
or baskets are better. A package
which will not hold more than a doz-
en- or at most two dozen heads GER
tainly has an advantage over the bar
rels.
If the heads are of good size, snowy
white, wrapped in fancy paper, and
marketed in new, clean packages they
cannot fail to attract attention, and
command good prices.
