Late Blight and Rot is the most destructive disease of potatoes in Ontario. In wet seasons it frequently destroys a very largo proportion of the erop and causes a toss of many thousands of dollars to the farmers of the province. This is to a large an old Candelabrum at that plat" • which has been in a -resting place for a good many years. Away back hi 1756 the first Methodist church was built at Barrington. The edifice was of the Cape Cod style. The Material used in its Construction was brought fora; Massachusetts, and in this •building the sturdy Methodist loyalists worshipped for many year's. In the early days df the. church, Rev. John Wesley, the father • of Methodisni, presented hid followers with a candelabrum, for those were .the days of candles, It did faithful service with ite candle; until the ad- vent of oil, when it was fitted up to contain lamps, and for a long time was used in that way. Later days brought up-to-date chandeliers, and the old Candelabrum was laid aside. But once again it ie into use, hav- ing_been resurrected from its resting place •of many years, eThe .ladles have taken hold of the retie, and have polished it up so that now it looks as bright as a button, and i3 once more hanging in the church, not in the olds.Cape Cod edifice, but the up-to-date `church in which the Methodist :folk of Barrington now worship. But to -day it is :not do- ing service in holding either wax candles or oil lamps but is fitted with electric candles from which go forth a brilliant light. The Candelabrum is quite massive, with. a spread' of probably six feet or more and besides being useful ;c highly ornamental. It is made of solid brass, and while those sleep wiho were alive when it first did ser- vice the old candelabrum continues to send out its fight, and will, as long as it hangs, keep green the memory of the devoted man of God who presented it to fee worshippers of those days.-0rillia Packet.

This has beau proven by numerous field experiments both In this country and 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 of copper sulphate (blue - stone) and 4 pounds of lime to 40 gallons" (imperial) of water. Com- mence spraying with Bordeaux throughout the season. Forty to 100 gallons of the Bordeaux mixture will be required for each application, the amount to he used depending upon the size of tho plants. Take special care to see that the spraying is very thoroughly done if the .weather is at alt 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 31,5 pounds to each 40 gallons of the 11 - quid spray or Paris green 2 pounds to 40 gallons or a mixture of 2 pounds of arsenate of lend paste and 1 pound of Paris green to 40 gal- lons, From three to seven 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 comes it will be dry and sufficient 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 com- mence spraying until about the 10th of 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 potatoes consider that a power potato sprayer is a good investment. The best results from'sprayiiig are.obtained with ma- chines fitted with T -joint attachments so as to insure covering both sur- faces of the leaves at each 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 tate plants are from six to eight inches high, and repeated at intervals of from a week to ten days ,throughout the growing season. From three to seven applications 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 eau only be done when sufficient of the spray mixture is used. From 50 to 160 gallons of Bordeaux mixture should be 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, 6. 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 halve the spray mixture on the plants 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•.fallure• to obtain results from potato spraying.—J. E. Howitt, 0. A.

The main objecTiona to putting fresh manuro on the land are: First, it ie not always convenient to do so; second, weed seeds may be numerous In the fresh manure, cousequontly a heavy weed crop may be expected; third, its action is not so rapid as in the case of well -rotted manure, but 11 is active over a longer period. Where manure is to be stored in piles or pits until it is ripened, or until it is convenient to use, then the greatest eal'o is necessary to prevent lessee of plant food materials from it. In the first place the bottom of the pile or pit should be impervious to water so that teachings from the pile will not occur. Second, it is well to have a layer of old welt -rotted ma- nure at the bottom. Third, the ma- nure as it is piled up should be well compacted or tramped down to pre- vent excess of air from getting into it, Fourth, it should be kept moist but not wet. These precautions 'apply more particularly to horse manure, which is loose and comparatively dry. Unless this is kept well packed and moist, loss by fire.fanging is certain. This is an oxidation process, or fer- metation, set going by certain species of bacteria, in the manure. If cow or Pig manure is available it should be mixed with the horse manure In the pile, as these are very wet and com- pact and will give a good consistency to the whole mass. The'main things to be remembered are: First, prevent leaching; second, keep It well pack- ed down and moist.—D, I•I. Jones, 0. A. College, Guelph. Dig out borers from. trunks of peach trees.
