Spraying Potatoes
Is Most Profitable
Bordeaux Mixture Properly
Applied Is Best Plan.

Tests made each year on series
Of from four to twenty plots of Irish
potatoes during the past ten years
show that it pays to spray this crop
for most profitable yields.
During the years from 1916 to 1920
a series of six tests was conducted at
various places in eastern Carolina on
the early crop by DR.. r. W. Leiby,
of the North Carolina experiment sta
ton staff. In this section the pota-
toes are hurried to maturity, being
planted early and heavily fertilized
Here the most important factor is
the potato beetle. though early blight
occasionally attacks the vines and hills
before the potatoes are ready to har-
vest In each of the tests, certain
rows were sprayed, some We're busted
and others were left untreated as a
check
In checking his results, Doctor Leiby
found that where the vines were
sprayed with the poisoned bordeaux
mixture the yield was at the rate of
IA bushels per acre. Where the
vines were not so treated, the yield
was only 20 bushels per acre. This
is a gain from spraying of IA bushels
per acre. In dry seasons, Doctor
Leiby also secured good results with
busting, using one part of lead ar
senate. to six parts of finishing lime.
Doctor Leiby says, "As rule it is
safest to use the poisoned bordeaux
mixture at least in the last two ap-
plications. though the first application
may be dust. Our experience shows
the grower should not spray sparingIy,
but must use enough material to cover
all parts of the vine thoroughly. This
will require from 100 to 125 gallons
of liquid per acre, Any grower can
secure the good results that we did
if he will use good bordeaux mix
ture and efficient spraying machinery"

Sixty Million Is Ready
for Work in California

Fear that highway development in
California will stop unless the gaso-
line tax is raised apparently is with
out foundation, according to figures
coming from Sacramento.
These indicate that the state will
have some $60,OOO,O0O to $70,000,O00
to spend on roads in the next biennial
period without any increase in taxes.
The sums available include $45,000,-
600 that win be collected on motor We
hicle taxes, $8,0O0,O0O that is now in
operating contracts, $12,O00,000 in new
construction work by counties and
road districts, 100000 to be spent
by the forest service. and $1,0OO,OOO
on the national park highways, total
of approximately $6S000,000 on high.
ways during the next two years.
If this is not enough, more should
easily be available, as 1t is indicated
that the state will have a surplus of
$50, 100000 in the general fund, part Of
which could be diverted to highway
construction purposes.

Increased Consumption
Seen in Milk and Cream

Consumption of milk and cream has
been steadily increasing in the United
States for number of years, reports
the Department of Agriculture, which
estimates consumption at 52,772, 000,-
600 pounds in 1924 compared with 50,-
10000 pounds in 1923.
The larger part of the increase was
in consumption of cream, and all Of
the increase was in cities inasmuch as
consumption on farms was assumed to
be the same as in 1928.
The increase, says the department,
is due to improvement in quality of
product, delivery in sanitary contain
ers, and a general increase in knowl-
edge of the value of milk in the diet,
the result of milk campaigns and spe-
cial advertising.
The average per capita consumption
for the country as a whole last year
was 5475 gallons compared with SO
gallons in 1923. Daily average per
capita consumption is estimated at IL
pints, being .951 of pint in cities, and
147 pints on farms.
The figures are based upon reports
from boards of health of 354 cities
having an aggregate population of 3d.
303,398 people. The quantities of
cream reported were converted into
milk equivalent and added to the milk
in securing the total used for house
hold purposes.

ROAD
Bull DING
NEW BULLETIN ON
RURAL HIGHWAYS

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.l
There were PA, 2o4 miles of rural
public roads in the United States on
January 1, 1922, according to bull
Ietin issued by the United States De
partment of Agriculture entitled
Rural Highway Mileage, Income, and
Expenditures, 1921 and 1922" OF the
total road mileage, 3S7, 100 miles had
been improved with some form of sur
facing such as sand-clay. gravel, ma
cadam, or pavement when the year
1922 began.
The total road mileage Is sufficient
to encircle the earth at the equator
11S times, while the surfaced mileage
was sufficient to gridiron the United
States with 70 east and west routes
extending from ocean to ocean, and
an equal number Of north and south
routes extending from border to Dor
der Since 1921 surfaced mileage has
been built at rate of between thirty
and forty thousand miles per year, OF
which an undetermined portion has
been In the nature of resurfacing Of
roads previously surfaced.
The bulletin is the result Of an In
vestigation by the bureau Of public
roads, and contains the only complete
report covering the entire road work
of the country for any recent year,
and will be valuable not only in study
ing the present highway situation, but
for the future as a record of highway
improvement progress.
Complete data are given for all rural
highways by states with reference to
types Of roads existing in 1921, mile
age constructed In the years reported
on, sources of highway funds and how
expended. and motor vehicle registra-
ton statistics. The statistics on high
way income and expenditure show
state funds and those of local units
separately.

ment Bulletin 1879, may be obtained
