Spraying for Potato Blight Begins— By Using Bordeaux Mixture and Paris Green 10c -teased Potato Crop Will Bo Harvested. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) IN a season of labor scarcity hay - ing is a problem on the average farm. It is necessary to make use of all the modern machinery available in order to expedite the saving of this: important crop. First, then, we must emphasize the use of machinery in curing and storing. Men are not to be had in, plentiful supply, but, in most cases some form of co-operation may be resorted to in order to obtain the use of.tedders, hay loaders and horse forks to han- dle the bulk of the crop, By all means plan to use machinery in place of men this year or otherwise considerable of the crop will not be harvested in the best possible condi- tion. It is usually safe to cut after a rain when the weather appears to have cleared. Red clover should be cut when about one-third of the heads have turned brown. The ted - der should then be used until the crop is dry enough to rake -a period which will vary according to the weight of the cutting, the weather and the amount of sap in 'the stalk. While it is possible to make slightly better hay by cocking up, this will be a practice of doubtful value this year in view of the labor shortage. Gather with a side -delivery rake if possible, or in small windrows with an ordi- nary dump rake. The hay loader works best with a small windrow. By all means us a loader if possible and to facilitate matters a 'sliding rack may be used so that when one- half the rack is loaded it may be pulled ahead . `and the remainder loaded. We mention red clover because it is the commonest and nest satisfac- tory hay crop, and: is used in all gen- eral farming hay mixtilres. Timothy should be cut either after it is out of the first blossom or after the second blossom has fallen—gen- erally the latter. It will require less tedding than clover, Is more easily cured and may be drawn in sooner after cutting. Do not let it get too ripe and woody. Alfalfa should be cut when the young shoots are noticed starting out from the axils of the lower leaves on the stalks, and should be handled much like red clover, only greater care is necessary to preserve tbe leaves, a very valuable portion of the plants.—.Prof. Wade Toole, Ontario Agricultural College. Spray for Potato Rot. Late blight and rot is the most de-. structive disease of potatoes in On- tario. In wet seasons it frequently destroys a very largeproportion of the crop and causes a loss of many thousands of dollars to the farmers of the province. This is to a large extent a needless loss, for "late blight" and "rot" can be prevented by timely, thorough and intelligent spraying with Bordeaux mixture. Directions for Spraying. Spray with Bordeaux mixture, strength 4 to 6 pounds of copper sul- phate (bluestone) and 4 pounds of lime to 40 gallons (imperial) of. wat- er: Commence spraying when the plants are from five toeight inches high, and keep the foliage covered with. Bordeaux throughout the sea- son. Forty to 100 gallons of the Bor- deaux mixture will be required for each application, , the amount to be useddepending upon the size of the plants. Take ; special care to see that the spraying ,is very thoroughly done if the weather is at :all damp about the 15th of July, as blight often be- gins at this time. Add a poison when necessary for potato beetles--arsen ate of lead paste, 31/2 lbs. to each 40 gallons of the liquid spray, or Paris green 2 lbs. to 40 gallons or a mix- ture of 2 lbs. of arsenate of lead paste and 1 ib. of Paris green to 40 gallons, From three to seven appli- cations should be made, depending upon the season, the wetter the wea- ther the larger the number. Do not put off spraying because it looks like rain. If the spray is on the plants half an hour before the rain comes it will be dry and ,suffibient of it will stick to prevent infection, which takes place during or soon after rain. Spraying as described above should prevent not only late blight and rot but also early blight and potato beetles. For late blight and rot only, it is not necessary to commence spraying until about tbe 10th of July, but in Ontario it is usually ad- visable to spray for all three. A hand pump barrel sprayer can be used for small lots of potatoes. Most men who grow any considerable acreage of potatoes consider that a power potato sprayer is a good in- vestment, The best results from spraying are obtained with machines fitted with T -joint attachments so as to insure covering both surfaces, of the leavesat each spraying.
