SPRAYING MATERIALS HIGH.

orehardists Are Facing a New and
Serious Situation.
Orchardists are facing new and
serious situation brought about by the
war, which has caused high prices in
spraying materials, according to D. E.
Lewis, assistant professor Of horticul-
ture In the Kansas State Agricultural
college.
Copper has been in such great de-
mand by the warning nations that the
price OF copper sulphate has scared,
asserts this authority. This demand
has governed more or less the prices
Of ether ingredients used with it in
spraying solutions.
Many inquiries have come to the de-
partment Of horticulture from farmers
in Kansas asking where they could
obtain certain commercial materials
and how much they would have TO
pay. The department attempted to
answer, these questions by writing to
large manufacturers. The replies just
received express a doubt as to- wheth=
er or not the materials containing
copper sulphate can be obtained at all
within a short time and state that the
selling price Of copper sulphate is from
Is to 80 cents pound.
"Orchardists have been accustomed
to paying approximately cent for the
materials used In one gallon of dilute
spraying solution" says Professor
Lewis. '"This year they will pay at
least q cents when bordeaux and arse
nate Of lead are combined, If copper
su1phate Is obtainable under any CIR
cumstances. Lime and sulphur and
arsenate of lead also will cost more
than in previous years.
"An orchard1st can afford, If he has
good trees, to use some bordeaux, even
with copper sulphate at 25 cents a
pound. Five to eight gallons of spray
per application will cost 30 to 80 cents
tree for three applications. Add to
this cost that of two applications of
lime and sulphur. This brings the ex-
pense to from so to 10 cents tree. 1t
Is q poor tree that doesn't yield at
least two bushels of fruit, and they are
mighty poor apples that won't bring 60
cents bushel. Thus, so far as the cost
Of spraying even at this exorbitant
price of materials is concerned, the two
bushels of fruit represent profit of
100 per cent On the Investment.
"The best advice to the fruit grower
is to use all precautions to conserve
his materials, do his spraying on time
and do it thoroughly. II the applca-
ton Is made exactly when 1t should be
a greater economy Of materials and q
much better control of insects and dis
ease result than If the spray Is applied
q week late.'

Mosida Will Raise BeetS

Representatives of the Utah-ldaho
Sugar Co. will go to Moslda and sign
contracts with the farmers there to
grow sugar bcets for the Lehi factory.
II is well known that Mosida soil is
specially adapted to the growing Of
root crops. One year ago one farmer
grew over 40 tons of mangle wursels
per acre.
Mosida farms are irrigated with Q
pumping plant which means that SOM
more intensity cultivated crop than
wheat must be grown. Sugar beets Is
that one crop and a good trial will BE-
given this year II successful II Is more
than probable that Mosida will be de
pended on to produce a large part OF
the supply for the Lehi factory. as
there are 5000 acres Of Mosida land
available for this purpose.
Heretofore, bad transportation fa
cilities has been the drawback to tn
growing OF beets at Mosida. Now II
Is proposed to build a system OF
barges and boat transportation from
Mosida to Saratoga where they will
be loaded. by means Of crane. onto
Orem cars, or II Is suggested that the
factory is only mile from Utah Lake
and that by driving piles landr
could be made here and then cheaply
hauled up to the sugar factory.
