Absolutely Necessary to Prevent Blight and Rot. Hbw to Eight These Fungus Enemies —Directions for Spraying—Must Be Timely and Be Thoroughly Done, (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agrloulture, Toronto.) Potatoes are sprayed to prevent such fungus diseases as Early Blight and Late Blight and Rot. Efficient spraying depends upon an under- standing and appreciation of what fungus {jiseases are. Fungus diseases are caused by planta known as fungi, These plants, unlike ordinary flowering plants, have no green coloring matter (chlorophyllk, and are unable there, fore to manufacture their own food. All their nourishment must be ob- tained from decaying animal, or. vegetable remains or from living animals or plants. Thome fungi which derive 'their nourishment from living plants injure them in too doing in various ways, and thus give rise to what are known as ltaagus diseases, Late Blight and Rot is the most destructive disease of potatoes in Ontario. In wet seasons it frequently destroys. a very large 1portiea of the crop and causes a lose of many thousands of dollars to the farmers of the province. This is to a large extent a needless loas, for Late Blight and Rot can be prevented by timely,< thorough and Intelligent spraying with Bordeaux mixture. This has been proven by numerous field experiments both in this country :ands the United States. Spraying' every year is an insurance. Can You afford to neglect it? Directions for Spraying.— Spray with. Bordeaux mixture, strength 4 to 6 pounds 01 copper sulphate (blue stone) and 4 pounds of lime to 40 gallons (imperial) of water. Com - menet: spraying with Bordeaux throughout the season. Forty to 100 gallons of the Bordeaux znlx ure will be required for eachapplication, the amount to be used depending upon. the size of the plants. Take speclal 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 begins at this time. Add a poison when. necessary for Potato Beetles—arsenate of lead paste 3 pounds to each 40 gallons 01 the H- eald spray or Paris green 2 pounds to 40 gallons or a maixture of 2 -pounds of arsenate of lead paste and 1 pound of Paris green to 40 gale lone. From three to :wren applica- tions should be made, depending up- on 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 cornea it will be dry and sufficient o1 it will stick to prevent infection, which takes place during or soon atter rain. Spraying as deecribed 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 com- mence spraying until about the 10th o1 July, but in Ontario it is usually advisable to spray for all three. . A .hand pump barrel sprayer can be used for small lots of potatoes. Most men who grow any consider= able acreage of potatees consider that a power potato sprayer is a good investment. The beat results from spraying are obtained with ma- chines fitted with T -joint attachments so as to insure covering both sur- faces of the leaves at eaeh spraying. Efficient spraying of potatoes depends: 1. Upon the use of the proper fungicide. Bordeaux mixture has so far proved to be the only satisfactory spray mixture for potato diseases. 2. Upon timely and repeated spraying. Spraying should be com- menced when the plants are from six to eight inches high, and repeated at intervals of from a we to ten days throughout the growing season. From three to seven applieations will be required, the number depending upon the weather, the wetter the weather the more frequent the spraying. .. 3.. Upon the liberal use of Bor- deaux mixture. Thorough spraying can only be done when sufficient of the spray mixture is used. From 50 to 150 gallons of Bordeaux mixture should 6e used per acre at each;ap- plication. When the plants are large not less than 100 gallons per acre should be applied. 4. Upon- thorough spraying, which means the covering of every portion of the plant. 5. Upon spraying before rather than after prolonged rainy periods. Infection of the plants takes place during or soon after rain. Therefore it is of the utmost importance to have the spray mixture on the plarits when the rain comes. If the spraying is. completed half an hour before rain sufficient of the Bordeaux will stick to prevent infection. If the spraying is left until after •prolonged rain in- fection 'will take place before the Bordeaux can be applied to the plants. Putting off spraying because it "looks like rain is one of the' most frequent causes of failure to obtain results from potato spraying, --J. E:T Howitt, O. A. College, Guelph.
