many common agricultural as well as
ornamental plants can be obtained
only by the application of sprav ma

College.
Inc basic ingredient in practically
all OF these spray materials is either
copper or sulphur. Some diseases are
more effectively controlled by a spray
containing copper and some by
sulphur sprays.
In the control of diseases, nearly all
sprays are preventive rather than
curative measures. After the disease
has appeared on the plant it is usual
ly too late to start treatment
DR.. Shaw lists the following rules
in spraying for disease control:
Buy spray materials from a depend
able source.
Obtain reliable directions for mixing
the spray and follow this information
closely.
Begin spraying before the disease
is due to appear on the plants, and
continue spraying according to the
most reliable directions available.
If a farmer is going to the expense
and trouble of spraying, he should get

He greeted Laredo quietly, a

"Howdy, Chuck"

over the same trail Laredo had

II dunno" Laredo persisted.
''That's what I got you up here
for. All we got to do now is to
ride for a while and then you
can tell me-"
Ride how far? 1 should catch

And after that Laredo did not
talk. When they had passed the
lake on the way to the D bar T,
Laredo left the trail that angled
down to the ranch and picked
his own. The two horsemen skirt
ed the base of Old Cartridge
which jutted down to the lake
and headed north toward the
mountains.
AS dusk settled into dark,
Church gave up trying to keep
directions and let his horse have
it's head. With the precision of
years of practice, Laredo went
deeper and deeper into the can
yons.
They had ridden an hour in this
when Laredo drew up.
He dismounted and Chuck
heard him 60 off a short distance.
When he returned, something
changed at his side.
Here's a lantern" he said.
Light up and come with me-"
Chuck did as he was bid and
in the Pickering circle of light
cast by the lantern he followed
Laredo. The canyon narrowed
until it's width could be spanned
by stretching the arms, and a
cool dank smell of wet rock sur
rounded them. Suddenly they
stepped out of the bottleneck on
to the sparse grass of a little
amphitheater.
Here's the place." Laredo said.
He squatted on his heels by the
lantern and rolled a cigarette
carefully.
For a month, off and on, I

What I want to know is, what is
it he dug?"
He picked up the lantern and
moved over toward one of the
walls. A tight-mouthed tunnel
appeared before them and Laredo
motioned Chuck inside.
Chuck set his lamp on the floor
at the end with smothered oath.
A single, short-handled pickaxe
lay on the floor.
"Have you been. lookin' at the
walls here?" he asked Laredo
slowly, unbelievingly.
Laredo nodded. Church point

NEW TYPE WIRE ~.....
SPEEDS UP SPARK

WASHINGTON, Dec. Id. (UP)
Research work with complex
mathematical equations at the
National Bureau of Standards has
resulted in the DEVELOPMENT of a
new "easy flow" type wire cable
for use in ignition equipment.
Using steel wire in place of the
traditional copper wire, the Wash
ington Institute of Technology
produced a wire cable with mini
mum resistance and Glow capaci-
tance." Co.,. ........
The technologists based their
experiments with the new wire on
a series of mathematical studies
completed by Dr.. Melville "A. Pc
ters, bureau of standards physi-
cist.
The new ignition wire gives q
hotter, faster spark which lasts
longer, thus cutting down on the
amount of current necessary to
start a gasoline engine. The navy
used the new wire for two years
in naval aircraft, and found it so
satisfactory the wire until recent
ly was kept on the navy's secret
list.
In starting an ordinary auto
mobile, scientists calculated, the
new wire makes it possible to
save 80 per cent on the amount
of current used. The cable con-
sists of seven strands of stainless
steel.
