Sweet Glover Found to
Be Popular Legume

White sweet clover proved to be the
best legume as money maker in
comparison with four other legumes,
on the light-colored soils. according
to G. J. Badger. University of Illinois.
The crops of wheat, corn and oats
following the use of biennial white
sweet clover were worth more money
than after any other legume, but red
clover was close second. Values
of crops following hVbam (annual
sweet clover), yellow blossom sweet
clover, alsike and yellow biennial were
close together but below red clover.
The yields of corn following the
different clovers were 177 bushels,
following white sweet clover, 1914 for
red clover. Is after alsike, 1874 after
yellow sweet clover and II bushels
after hubam.
Wheat yielded highest after hubam
and oats yielded highest after yellow
sweet clover.

Casein Superior
Spray Spreader
Makes 1t Easier to Give
Fruit Complete Coat Of
Lead Arsenate.

(Prepared by the United states Department
of Agriculture.)
A mixture of lead arsenate and wa
ter, when sprayed on the fruit and
foliage of tree, does not spread as
evenly over the surface as is desir-
able. The liquid tends to collect in
drops and much of it rolls off. To
overcome this certain materials
known as spreaders are used.
Use Is New.
The use of spreaders in cOdling-
moth sprays is comparatively new,
says the bureau of entomology,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. So far as is known at present.
spreader is a desirable addition to
a lead-arsenate spray. 1t is possible
to control the insect just as thorough
ly without the spreader as with it. 1t
is somewhat easier, however, to give
the fruit complete coat of poison
when a spreader is included. The
spreader cannot be depended on to
make the spray go further, except
that without it there is tendency
to Overspray, until the material col
lects in relatively large drops. The
spreader added to lead arsenate has
the advantage of eliminating the con-
spicuous white blotches that usually
appear on fruit sprayed with the ar
senical alone. Chemical analyses
show that there is just as much poi
son on an apple when a spreader has
oeen used as when it has not. The
difference is that the poison is more
evenly distributed.
Among Best Spreaders.
Among the best spreaders are soap,
certain oil emulsions, glue, and casein.
Casein is by far the most satisfac-
tory spreader obtainable at present.
In its pure form it does not mix with
water, and it must be combined with
an alkali before it can be put into the
spray tank. The manufacturer gen.
orally does this, but any grower can
mix his own spreader by directions
the Department of Agriculture will
furnish upon application.
