GOOD SPRAYING EQUIPMENT ESSENTIAL
By J. C. MOORE. Wisconsin Agricultural

By J. C. MOORE. Wisconsin Agricultural
Experiment stAtion1
Time and money are lost in attempt
ne to spray with poor equipment.
First-class machinery in good working
rider and mixing equipment adequate
sor the amount Of material to be ham
He'd and designed to facilitate the
preparation of materials and the fill
ing Of spray tanks are essential TO
economical and efficient work.
The mixing equipment VIII vary with
.he amount of spraying to 3e done and
he materials to be used. The home
orchard will demand less elaborate
equipment than commercial orchard.
Bordeaux necessitates more barrels or
tanks than lime sulphur. In using
bordeaux, four barrels or tanks are
almost necessary. Convenient water
supply is n time saver in spraying. A
creek or pond in proximity to the or
chard saves much time in pumping or
hauling water. 1t is important, how
ever, that the water be free from grit
The character Of the pump depends
largely on the size of the orchard
sprayed. For commercial orchards a
power pump is most economical. For
the home orchard the hand pump Is
satisfactory. A good quality hose
costs less in the end as it Is more
durable than the common garden hose.

strikes the Obstructing surface. This
nozzle has great driving power and is
extensively used in the West for the
culyx spray of apples and pears.
The eddy chamber type of nozzle
produces the spray by forcing the liq-
uid to rotate rapidly as 1t is expelled
through a small aperture at high pres
sure which breaks IT up into mlstlike
form. There are various devices for
producing the whirling motion. The
character of the spray is regulated to
Il greater or lesser extent by the pres
sure, the size of the aperture and the
relation Of the openings IN the whlrl-
ing device to the aperture. This is
the type of nozzle used extensively in
the East.
1t is desirable to have the opening
Of the nozzle at an angle to the rod
as it greatly facilitates putting on the
material. Some nozzles known as an.
gle nOzzles are so constructed as to
accomplish this. Unless an angle noz-
zle is used, an angle connection is i'm
perative for efficient work.
An entirely different type Of spray
pump is now being used by number
of growers. Instead of pumping liQ-
uId, the pump congresses air which
enters an air-tight tank containing the
spray material. The in-rushing air is

FERTILIZERS LEAST
REQUIRED BY FRUIT
Are Necessary in Only Few
Places, Points Out HorticuItur-
iSt of Kansas College.

The application of fertilizers is one
Of the least important factors in fruit
growing, in the opinion of F. s. Mer-
rill, assistant professor of horticulture
In the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege.
"SOme soils are so extremely fertile
that orchards planted on them have a
tendency to make an excessive wood
growth" said Mr.. Merrill. "This alb
normal growth of wood tends to cut
down the size of the fruit crop. On
such fertile soil the use of fertilizers
is detriment.
"In a sandy soil where clean culti-
walton is practiced there may be a
lack of humus and organic matter.
On such soil 1t is well to use a fertil-
iZer.
Except for young peach trees, barn
yard manure is the only fertilizer that
need be used. 1t is rich in organic
matter and supplies the soil with all
the material that is needed for orchard
fertilization. The manure should be
applied in the fall and winter at the
rate of IL to Is tons an acre. In the
spring the manure should be disked
into the ground"

Want METRIC SYSTEM
Uncle Sans Commercial At

Action Made Necessary, Il Is Declared
Because Of Changing Character
Of American Exports.

There is growing demand among
Uncle Sans consular officers and COM
mercial attaches that the United States
abandon its standards OF measure In
favor Of the metric system. In tlle last
decade or two the character Of Ameri-
can exports has changed. Formerly
| our exports were Of raw materials. But
where formerly we sold lumber, now
we are selling chairs, tables and desks.
Where we used to sell pig iron, we are
selling knives, plOws and machinery.

mands a change In our customary
measures" says w. G. Wells, chief
statistician Of the Ran-American union.

"The Importance Of the metric scale

of the world save England and Russia,

Furthermore, we should adopt it
because of It's inherent merits, its vast

inherent weaknesses of our English

I'VE cannot help ourselves in the
foreign trade, for there we must come
to the metric system. 1t is, of course,
quite possible to have two systems,
such as in fact exist in England today,

gree. The United States, Great Britain

countries outside the fold of the met

THINNING IS URGED

It Is Necessary to Thin to Point

1t Is the desire of every fruit grower
to produce apples of good size, high
color, fine quality and uniformity. This
Is almost impossible without thinning.
No Orchardist will thin his fruit so as
to OOtain an abnOrmally large product,
for the market does not demand such
fruit. But it is Necessary, with a big
crop, to thiI to point where the most
desirable size for the variety can be
obtained.
One of the strongest arguments in
favor of thinning is that it secures
uniform fruit. Another point in its fa-
vOr is that in thinning one may 90

Thinning also has It's direct effect
upon the tree. 1t allows 1t to make the
proper wood growth, prevents break
ing of limbs, and allows the tree to
produce, as nearly as possible, uniform
annual crops. A heavy crop usually
follows a light one
The amount of fruit that should be
left on a tree is an exceedingly hard
thing to judge and experience is the
best teacher. Some try to thin to
certain number of boxes; others try to
space their fruit. If spacing is fol-
lowed, the apples should not be left
closer than five or six inches apart,
and no apples should be left on the
tree that touch each other. Thinning
may be done by pinching the apple
off with the fingers, but the work may
be done quite handily by pair of
thinning shears.
