Flats should be about three inches deep with holes in the bottom to' afford drainage.

Spraying to guard against or to kill San Jose scale should be finished at once. It must cease, of course when:`tlte young foliage appears, as the spray kills the growth. The fact that the scale is not present in the orchard, shrubbery or on the branches and limbs of the shade trees is a poor excuse for omittrpg this important opet'ation, It is much easier to pre vent it than to eradicate it and spray ing as a precautionary measure should be employed generally, even where only a few shruhs and trees are grown.
