Father Flahaven, ~= ape =+â€" â€" smcs Wanted It is needless to say that the care 6f spraying machinery should never be neglected, Indeed, the spraying outft should never be put away afâ€" ter using until the mixture is thorâ€" oughly cleared out from all parts of the pump, rod, piping, hoke and nozâ€" sles by running clear water through them. The water should be drained from the engine, and all parts cleanâ€" ed and oiled.â€"Prof. Jno. O, A. College, Guciph, © ~ The agitation of the liquid in the tank is another important mattor, In the case of most sprays, the individâ€" ual particles that make up the inâ€" secticide are suspended in the water. Unless the sprayer is equipped with a good agitator, these particles will settle to the bottom, rendering the mixture in the top of the tank weakâ€" er than it should be, and that in the bottom stronger, and possibly in some cases too strong for safe appliâ€" cation. Prepare for Spring Spraying. Efficient and economic spraying is hard to attain with the use of poor machinery. The power sprayer is an expensive piece of machinery, but it is effective when properly handled. Its usefulness can be greatly impairâ€" ed by improper care. To s#â€"ure the highest degree of efficiency‘in sprayâ€" ing the maintenance of high pressure is necessary. Probably high prossure is not needed in all cases; it is, howâ€" ever, true that by means of it wmore thorough and, consequently, more efâ€" fective work can be done in a much shorter time and with imuch less effort. The old Sixâ€"rowed barley gave way to the Mandscheuri, and that in turn has given place to the O.A.C. No. 21, which is now grown throughout Onâ€" tario to the exclusion of practically all other varieties. The Egyptian and the Black Tartarian varieties of oats which were popular at one time have been largely displaced by the Banner and more recently by the O.A.C. No. 72 and the O.A.C. No. 3 varieties. The O.A.C. No. 72 variety has a comâ€" paratively strong vigorous straw, spreading head, and white grain of good quality, the hull being quite thin. In experiments at the Ontario Agricultural College it has surpassed the Banner in yield per acre in each of nine out of ten years. It has made a phenomenal record in connection with the Ontarioâ€"Standing Field Crop Competitions, taking more first prizes than all other varieties of oats comâ€" bined. The Q.A.C. No. $ variety is ten days earlier than the Banner or theâ€"O.A.C. No. 72, ana is an excellent variety for mixing with barley when it is desirable to grow the two in combination. Of the spring wheats the Red Fife, the Marquis and the Wild Goose are the principal varieâ€" ties. At the present time, however, when the demand for wheat for bread production is so urgent the Marquis and the Red Fife, and especially the former, should be grown as extenâ€" sively as possible in Ontario. Spring rye does not yield equal to Winter rye but its cultivation will perhaps be increased somewhat during the present year. The O.A.C. No. 61 variety has given the best results, surpassing all other kinds in yield of grain .perâ€"acre.â€"Dr. C. A. Zavitz, O. A. College, Guelph. The cause of these diseases is not known. Whether there is some orâ€" ganism, or whether the climate has something to do with them, is a matter of doubt. Prof. P. A. Murphy, of Charlottetown, who is the Chief Pathologist for potatoes for the Domâ€" inion, and who is attached to the Central Experimental Farm, is at work on this problem, and it is hoped that before many months the cause will be known. At any rate, it is known that the diseases are more common in potatoes in the Southern States. That is why it is expected Ontario seed potatoes will be in deâ€" mand there in a few years. _ The survey which was made last year by inspectors to detcct diseases in the potatoes was spread over 32 counties, although the reports from four of that number are not included in the statistics because of irregulariâ€" ties in the work. The territory coverâ€" ed was from Northumberland and Peterborough counties west to Essex, not including Simcoe and Victoria. It was found in this survey that an average of 15 per cent. of the potaâ€" toes had the most serious disease of Leaf Roll, and that 7 per cent. were affected with Mosaic, a total of 22 per cent. affected by discase. An inâ€" teresting fact revealed by the survey is that the diseases are most common along the shores of Lake Ontario, through Dufferin and Wellington counties, and along the shore of Lake Erie through to Essex county. Farâ€" ther north the percentage of disease is much smaller. While the average for the two diseases is 22 per cent., some of the counties showed a much higher rate, as Haldimand 29, Welâ€" land 61.7, Lincoln 33.5, Wentworth 26.6, Brant 44.8, Halton 32.1, Peel 51.9 and York 25.4. The standard in this province permits of two per cent. Leaf Roll in No. 1 seed and 5 per cent. in No. 2. In severe Mosaic the percentage is the same, although in slight Mosaic the figures are doubled. FFICIALS of the Ontario Deâ€" partment of Agriculture inâ€" spected 313 seed potato fields in Northern Ontario last year of 278 acres, and 119 fields qualified for certified seed. It is estiâ€" mated that there were 16,000 bushels of certified seed secured from Northâ€" ern Ontario. All of this is being shipped to Old Ontario to be planted this year.

Ihe Review and Tcoronto Dawly The Canadian War Savings Plan precâ€" ents a splendid opportunity to train children in habits of thrift. It does so because it provides a means whereby even 25 cent pieces may be taken care of with profit A Thrift Stamp only costs 25 cents, while 16 of them will buy a War Savings Stamp. For the $4 which one of these stamps costs, the government will pay $5 in 1924, which is equal to to 44 L€r cent compounded haliâ€"yearly W.S.S. will make for a thrifty home and thrifty children. Introduce them. If Canadians are to be a thrifty people it will be largely because thrift is taught in the homes of Canada. For habitsof thrilt may be formed there even before the child starts to school. Even after atâ€" tendance at school begins the child spends much more time at home than in the school room. Every home should be a centre for the Thrift campaign. _ For in the life of the nation the home occupies a position of strategic importance. The citizens of toâ€" morrow will be what our homes make them, it being impossible for the children to get away from home influences. $¢.3C 3C 3C 3¢.. .

R,. G:aham, B.8.A., Q A. Colâ€" lege, Gueiph. However, A.C. cannot be used to charge storage cells and hence priâ€" vate plants which usually have storâ€" age batteries must be of the D.C. variety. This is also true of lighting systems for automobiles. Now alternating current, or A.C., may be used for lighting, just ar well as D.C. If the alternations are very rapid the light is perfectly steady, but if too slow the lights will Suctuate in brightness, and the light is hard on the eyes, Many light and power companies supply A.C. Electric energy passing through fine wires will heat them white hot, | hence electricity may be used fo: lighting. Current for this purpose usually has a pressure of 110 volts, when supplied by light and powo companies, but private plants usually generate only about 32 volts, All current generated by dynamos is alâ€" ternating when made, i.e., it fows in one direction for half a revoluâ€" tion of the dynamo and then in the opposite direction during the other half, but by fitting the dynamo with a commutator (which means changâ€" er) these waves of current may all be sent in the same direction along the distribution lines. It is then called direct current or D.C. In the year 1800, Volta, a famous Italian pbhysicist, discovered that if a plate of copper and one of zine were placed in weak sulphuric acid, and connected by a wire above th« acid, there was transmitted along the wire a certain amount of energy, which transmission we speak of as a current of electricity, comparing it o a current of water, As it requires pressure or head to make water flow , so. it requires electric pressure to make electricity flow. The pressure of the simple cell described above is called a volt, in honor of its disâ€" coverer. A dynamo generating 3% volts would have a pressure equal to that of 32 simple cells.
