Lime Sulphur With Arsenicals for the Orchard. A. Combined Fungicide and ,Insecta.. cide—Get the Right Arsenate of Lead -- Stomach Worm Loss Preventable. (Contributed by Ontario Department or Agriculture, Toronto.) The time is again at hand for lay- ing plans for the summer care of the orchard and garden and nothing that can be done will be found to give better paying returns than the careful control of insect and•fungus attacks. It has been computed by reliable authorities that an annual toll of 10 per cent. is taken by the inroads of these enemies of the farm- er on his variouscrops and that this loss increases many fold where pro- per precautions are not taken. In extreme cases complete destruction of some crop has sometimes been known to occur through failure to give care, or through neglect at the right steps at the right time. In this connection it will be found that there is 'nothing that can be done that will give more satisfactory returns on the investment than a small outlay in money and time on spraying and dusting. But it must be done intelligently or time and money will be squandered and the leading essential here is the Choice of the proper remedy and the correct compounding and a'pplyieg of it. one of the most outstanding and effective remedies in use to -day is the lime -sulphur solution mixed with an arsenical, Tia combination gives a sorbins insecticide and fungicide effect, a teaatn. play which is very fre quently required during the growing season, Insects and fungi often giv- ing trouble at tae same time on the same plant, The advantage at mix- ing the two and applying them together is obvious — the cost of application is exactly ane -half what it would be had they to be separately applied. But care in making this combined spray must be exercised. Some arsenicals cannot be mixed with lime - sulphur. Paris green, long the xrost popular bug exterminator, and still extensively used where quick results are desired, will destroy fully 35 per cent, of the efficiency of the lime - sulphur wash if mixed with it, and, what is far worse, this mixture will taadly damage leaves and other ten- der parts of plants. It follows, there- fore, that Paris green, though a powerful poison insecticide, cannot be used along with lime sulphur wash • as a combined spray. On the other hand arsenate of lead has given de- cided satisfaction in this respect and it is quite probable that the, neWgr arsenical, calcium arsenate, Is also suitable to combine with lime - sulphur, But the chief purpose of this arti- cle is to draw attention to the hitherto little recognized fact In connection with the use of arsenate of lend along with lime -sulphur that there are two kinds of arsenate of lead, chemically, one of which is more fitted for combining with lime - sulphur than is the other. Acid ar- senate of lead destroys nearly 30•per cent. of the efficiency of the lime - sulphur, whereas neutral arsenate of lead, the other kind, only destroys 9 per cent. In other respects, these two forms of the lead arsenate are equally useful to combine with lime - sulphur solution to get a dual pur- pose spray. If, however, when using the acid arsenate of lead, 3 ee pounds of finely sifted, and fresh hydrated lime be mixed into the lime -sulphur solution along with every 1 pound of the arsenate used (which is us- ually 1 pound to every 40 gallons of the lime -sulphur solution) the de- struction of the efficiency of the lime - sulphur is reduced to 8 per cent. (practically the same as the neu- tral). I! this practice be followed when the acid variety of the ersenate is being used it does not matter which of the two forms of this ar- senical is used In making lime - sulphur arsenate •spray, as equally satisfactory results are obtained with either. This precaution in connection with combining lime -sulphur and lead ar- 'senate becomes especially important in view of the fact that practically alb the lead arsenate now put on the market is of the acid variety. Itis therefore recommended ,:that when- ever using arsenate of'leed and lime - sulphur as a combined spray, unless the kind. of arsenate is knbwn to he neutral,' the practice of using hydrat- ed lime along with it be always followed.—H.

Animal husbandry division men at the University of Minnesota Farm say that sheep owners of the state have suffered great losses among their flocks by reason of the stomach worm. The lambs suffer the most. "The best preventive and the one most easily given," says Philip A. Anderson of the division, "is copper sulphate or blue stone, as it is often known. Make a 1 per cent. solution by dissolving one-quarter of a pound of the blue stone in a pint of boiling water, adding cold water to make three gallons, being sure that a clear solution is obtained and always us- ing an earthenware or. a wooden receptacle. The dose ,for lambs, ac- cording to size, is• three-quarters of an ounce to,pne and one-half ounces; for older. sheep,- two and: one-half ounces to three ounces An ordinary tablespoon hplds, one -,half ,ounce. "A veterinarian's syringe can be used, but care must. be exercised in not .. pushing, the•. -plunger of the syringe too rapidly, as the solution may enter 'the lungs and give trouble. This treatment should be repeated hi ten days or two weeks, or, if the flock is badly infested, two or three times during season& at intervals of 30 days."
