Good Effect of Mulching and Spraying
In the Spring.
By JAMES ELWIN, Minnesota.
Last winter. 100G-7, I bought a
straw stack in order that we might
mulch my plum trees to keep them
back in the spring In case a late frost
might come after blossoming. We only
mulched about one-half and mulched
them in February, when the ground
was frozen. As the season was very
backward I could ifot tell if It hohl
them back or not. but I do know that
on those that were mulched the fruit
was better and more of It, owing to
the mulch retaining' the moisture
around the tree. On trees that wore
not mulched the fruit In a number of
cases wilted and dried up before ripen
lug. The spriug of 1000 was the first year
we sprayed. AVe sprayed before the
trees were in blossom with bordeaux
and parls green and commenced the
second spraying after the fruit had
formed. With only a knapsack spray
er it was slow work, and we were un
able to finish the orchard. All the
trees that were sprayed twice had very
fine fruit, and those that were sprayed
only once were inferior. A number of
the trees that were sprayed twice yield'
ed two slxtcen-quart crates of elegant
fruit.
Early in 1007 I purchased a barrel
sprayer, which made the work easy.
Ono man would drive and pump nnd
two would spray. By this means wo
could spray 200 trees an hour. We
sprayed twice last year, using bor
deaux and arseuate of lead.
Black Aphis.
The first three years black aphis was
very prevalent among the trees, espe
cially. the De Soto. Last summer after
the second spraying I noticed nearly
all of the new shoots were covered
with this pest and thought perhaps
spraying had not helped It, but In a
few days, to my surprise, I found it
all gono and concluded tho iusccts
working down to tho part that was
sprayed obliterated them. In conclu
sion I wish to impress oil tho minds of
those raising plums that it is not ad
visable to offer them for sale lu bushel
baskets.

The following advertisement, quoted
from a Boston paper of a date early in

pose such conditions on the hindrance
In tho kitchen?

the earth's rotation. In a very short

and came to rest, while the boiled ouo

An Awkward Comment.
In the vicinity of Germantown there
lived a worthy old Quaker lady and
her son John, who were once called
upon to entertain a number of ladles,
at dinner during quarterly meeting.
As John began to carve the broiled
chicken he entered upon a flowery
speech of welcome, but in the midst
of his flattering utterances his mother,
who was somewhat deaf, piped uj
from the other end of the table:
"You needn't bo pnilslne of 'em up,
John. I'm afraid they're a lot pf
tough old heio, eTery ouo of 'em."
