The land to be plant ed at this distance from the factory, and where the haul must be alto gether by wagon or truck, will ne cessarily be of the very best quality for the production of beets. There is no better soil In the west than that In the district mentioned.

Cover everything thoroughly with spray and use not less than 200 pounds pressure. I have been asked, "If I am going to omit any spray, which one would you advise to be omitted?"

If you attempt to con trol fungus with less than four or five times spraying, you may be dis appointed with results.
