Fruit growers are desirous of using *- .one spray that will be effective against lboth plant diseases and injurious inâ€" :cects so that all can be. dealt with at - the same time. The department or en« ‘tomology or the University of Kansas, therefore, recommends the following: Lime, six pounds; sulphur, four pounds. :Boil together in a kettle of water for .an hour. Strain this into a barrel 'ot water and add two pounds of arsenate ~ of lead. It should be applied now to peaches :.to control the rot and to apple trees ? lto prevent wormy apples and to secure -' smooth, symmetrical fruit instead oil "limit disfigured by the scab. Thisds ~. .also an excellent spray against insects ‘ which airect the potato. For fruit ltrees begin spraying as the blossoms “mall, then once each month until fruit ultras begun to ripen.

This should be mixed and applied at the rate or 700 ipuunds and upward per acre.

Every beokeepcr needs one or more ‘books on bee culture. Look well after your beesand don’t 1 them swarm if you expect to get 43' honey. Don’t wait until your bees get in swarming to order hives. It‘s better . ‘0 keep them from swarming. iiivcs should always stand level side- :isc When comb building is being :oue so the combs will come down oven with the bottom bar of the frame. Bees like to work better probably than any other living thing. There is room for a few ilivos of bees on every ,clarm. Fruit. poultry and bees make a usplentlld combination. Every beginner should paste a label on the front of each stand, wholly for :l-Err own benefit. which should read: "Leave this hive alone. Nothing will snore disturb a swarm of bees and in- liwfcre with the. economy of the hive filmn to be constantly opening it and :lliz'tlug out the frames."

Canadian breeders of Clydesdales, trained as they are to recognize merit in a wide hoof head, a broad strong foot built to wear and last on a hard city pavement, have learned a great deal more about the importance of a. good foot than about how to get it, and how to keep it. The fine free step of the broad-footed Clydesdale with the foot lifted jaunt- ‘ly, carried straight ahead and set firmly down, tells a story of something more than nicely adjusted articulation of joints and coordination of muscles, with lines of power identical with. those of resistance. Does it not tell a story of foot steps that are free from pain and all feeling of discomfort? Going farther back, does it not mean a good free circulation of blood, 'and of a circulation able to take up waste matterâ€"in fact, of a well nourished foot? Dry hard feet tell a story of insuf- ficient nourishment. lions may assist in producing this situ- ation, and it is wise to- correct or alle- -.iate them as much as possible. In stables where feet appear to become dried out, attempts to correct this by stuffing the frog with wet clay have been popular. success at least, but it is doubtful if a horse appreciates going to bed with his feet soaked with cold mud, much more than this his owner would, al- though in the latter case the conse- quences might be more immediately disastrous. There might be a little lost and a good deal gained if this side of the argument were kept more prominently in view by horsemen whose chargers are troubled with, dry hard or con- tracted feet. Such means are condu- cive to general good health and thrift, accompanied by others well known to be useful in stimulating the nourish- ment of anypart, by stimulating the blood circulation. Such methods as standing, “tubbing” the feet in warm water, aiterivards giving a cold bath and drying thoroughly. should be well worth a patient trial for feet showing a tendency to become dry and brittle. The human fingernail when it b;ccmc~s Cry apd‘brittle usually becomes thin as well. Treatmcut‘with olive oil will usually improve il‘ in‘ a very short time.
