REPORT DAMAGE TO
CUCUMBER VINES

Tn some localities growers of cucum bers have reporter insect or other damage to(vines. In letter to a cucumber grower a horticulturist gives the follow ing general information on cucumbers:
 There are three general causes of cu- { cumbers failing to do well as a crop. Plant lice, cucumber beetles which cause cucumber wilt, and cucumber blight are three enemies of the cucumber. The first
 may be controlled by dusting with nico- tine dust of at least 3 per cent, strength. care being taken to get the dust on the under side of the leaves where the lice are to be found
 Cucumber blight is a serious disease which causes the leaves to spot and dry up. This can be controlled through the use of Bordeaux mixture, used either as a spray or dust. Cucumber wilt, the third common cause of difficulty in cucumbeT tculture. is caused by the cucumber beetle. I7This pest can be controlled by dusting the plants at intervals of a few days with a ] mixture of dry lead srsenate and dry | lime, one part of lead arsenate to 20 parts of dry lime or gypsum.
 To grow healthy cucumbers with a
 good crop setting. good seed, rich, moist soil with plenty of manure and some lime, and insect control are essential. When 1 soil is lined for cucumbers use about 20 l pounds to each square rod of land, well
 raked into the top soil.

lime stock solutions are stirred well be- fore removing to make Bordeaux.
 5. Add l 1-2 pounds of arsenate of lead powder to each 50 gallon barrel of Bordeaux to kill bugs. The Bordeaux is good only to protect from blight and hea' sbeetles.
 6. Strain stock solutions when adding to Bordeaux barrel to avoid trouble with noZzles ciogging.
 '. Estimate that an average of. 75 gallons of Bordeaux should be used iper acre for each spraying.
 S. The lime and copper solutions will remain good indefinitely if unmixed. Bor- deaux mixture deteriorates rapidly and should be applied the same day as made.
 g. For smaller sprayers use some pro portion stated under (3). Thus for 10 gallon sprayer use 8 gallons of water and add 1 gallon of copper solution and l gallon of lime solution. l. TO- In making up stock solution, less materials can be made up, but always dissolve at the rate of 1 pound of mate rial to 1 gallon of water. Thus in Ais solving 5 pounds of copper sulphate, use
 gallons of water and the same with lime.
 Remember: That home made Bordeaux works on the same principle as home ! mixed fertilizers. There are all kinds of commercial mixtures on the market that cos tnuch more and are. often worth much less than the home made article. Can we afford to take the risk of com merciaI Bordeaux mixtures? Everyone must answer that for themselves.

BOND MARKET

New York. June 22.-The lower redis- count rate fixed after the clost of yes- terday's business by the local Federal Re serve bank was the reason most general ly advanced for the distinctly better tone of todsys bond market
 Among the most noteworthy develop ments were the new high records estab- lished by four of the Liberty issues. The first As rose to 1O0.20, the third 4 1-4's Ito 100.1S. the fourth Ifs to 100.2O and the first second 1-4>s to 101.5O.
 Several foreign loans were slightly higher also, notably San Paulo SIS, French muuicipals and Tokio 5's, but British issues seemed to be adversely in- fiuenced by another drop in sterling ex- change.
 Gains of one to two quarter points were made by such rails as Chesapeake and Ohio convertible 5's, Atchison ad- justment 4's, Northern Pacific As St. Louis and San Francisco incomes, South ern Pacific collateral As, Seaboard con- solidated 6's and Western Maryland As.
 A decline of ? 3-4 points was made by Missouri, Kansas and Texas second As, with reactions of to 3,1-2 points in Bal tirnore and Ohio As, Consolidated Gas 7's, Third Avenue adjustment As and Mar land Oil warren SIS. Total sales (par value) aggregated S13.345, 900.

 Highest prices of the day in the wheat market were attained after the issuance of an official forecast pointing to higher temperatures over a wide territory, but with little moisture probable tonight or tomorrow. Further crop damage from heat was apprehended, the thermometer having reached 112 in the extreme southwest yesterday. Complaints of lack of rain in Nebraska, South Dakota and Canada to emphasize bullish sentiment which was also influenced somewhat by. mention of black rust in Minnesota
 Ability on the part of the buyers to absorb increased hedging sales was shown and it was estimated that fully 5o0000 bushels of new wheat to arrive here had been bought by Chicago cash handlers. Gossip was current, too, that as a result of farm organization control the usual harvest pressure to sell might be less evident this year than has here tofore been the rule. Broadening out of the trade in corn and oats was also of assistance toward higher prices for wheat.
 Corn ascended to the uppermost quota tions reached in some time Demand was based largely on likelihood that if dry weather continued the corn crop would suffer. Assertions that the cats yield was already certain to be short found acceptnce from numerous traders.
 Provisions were. steady. Absence of offerings wa sthe chief apparent reason.

BUSTING WORKS WELL
 INSTEAD OF SPRAYING

Orchardists will be interested in the spraying apple trees for the control of scab, scale and curcu1io as worked out by W. H. Wolff, Hampden county (Mass) horticulturist. this year. MT. Wolff is loud in his praises of dusting, both for it's effectiveness in controlling diseases and for the time it saves in covering even large trees. In speaking of the results obtained in one orchard, MT. Wolff says:
 "The invention of the new orchard dusts and machinery for applying them Is, in my opinion, the biggest step in the progress of fruit growing since Millardet invented Bordeaux mixture in France in 1880.
 q have seen many well sprayed orch ards this season, but I find all of them more or less infected with scab and plant lice and in every orchard 25 to 50 per cent. of the fruit shows curculio pune lures.
 "In the orchard of H. A. Moses of Rus sell the crop at this stage is practically perfect and the leaves without blemish. It is the most perfect crop of apples ever saw.
 "1n this orchard was carried out the first apple orchard dusting demonstration ever put on in western Massachusetts, and it will pay every fruit grower to visit these orchards and carefully examine for himself the condition of the crop.
 '',The big advantages of orchard dusting as carried on here are that the materials are easily and quickly applied 1000 12 year old trees being dusted one night in five hours. Dusting is done at night sN account of the moisture on the foliaA and quiet air conditions.
 There is absolutely no danger of dam age to foliage or fruit, in dusting. al@ the objects sought are accomplished 2
