The character of the erosion varies with the type of soil. 'Usually on the heavy clay soils "shelf or surface erosion is found. With increasing proportion of sand in the soil the erosion changes to the "shoestring" type, then to the gully type, with rounded edges, and finally to the gullies with caving edges. AU methods for prevention and con- trol are based either on increasing the • capacity for absorbing the water as it falls or on decreasing the velocity of the run-off. A new method hi use in one locality is the construction of what ' are known as "christophers.'• the die- ttinctive feature of this plan lying In the manner of disposing of storm wa- ters. Across an incipient gully is built a dam. through which is passed n sewer pipe connected with an upright pipe on the upper side of the dam. Water fills the valley until it reaches the top of the upright pipe and then flows down this pipe into the next field. The water left standing below the mouth of the upright pipe is grad- ually removed by a tile drain. 00000000.00000000000000 Scientific Fanning 0000000000000000.0000 000 CROWN GALL AND HAIRY ROOT Rules by Which These Diseases, May Be Reduced to a Minimum. [Prepared by M. T. Coolc, plant patholo- gist, New Jersey experiment station.] That crown gall and hairy root: are serious diseases cannot be doubted. That they may be much more serious in some localities' than others and upon some plants than on others 1s equally true. Eleavy applications of fertilizer tend to redhce the injm'ious effects on many varieties. but it would be more profitable for the grower to feed healthy plants than diseased plants. • The great difference of opinion con- cerning these diseases expressed by various workers in the past can be readily explained by our increasing knowledge of the subject. It is very generally conceded that the distribu- tion of these diseases is largely due to nursery stock; that cane fruits, espe- You Should Worry If it were difficult to find a safe and reliable remedy for the ailments due to irregular or defective action of the stomach, liver or bowels.

Tar pads will protect early cabbage from the pest at a cost of about $1.40 per thousand plants. Truck growers, who are subject to losses by the cabbage maggot, are urged by the New York agricultural lxperIment station to test the tar pads experimentally as a• basis for more ex- tensive operations against this pest. i The Cabbage Maggot. The cabbage maggot is the principal handicap in the production of early sehbage and cauliflower. The insect hi present in most communities where early cabbage is grown and occasion- ally causes extensive damage to this crop. Of the insecticides that are employed to destroy maggots about the roots of the plants carbolic acid emulsion has generally been regarded as the most efficient. Tests with the emulsion at recommended strengths have " demon- strated that it will prevent the hatch- ing of the eggs and is fatal to the younger stages of the larvae. It may, -however, cause injury to young seed- ' Ings and is not a safe remedy for the treatment of plants recently set in the told.

When boils or pimples start to break out on your face or body you may rest assured that the blood is in an impure state, and that before you can get rid of them it will be necessary for you to purify it by using a good medicine that will drive all the impurities out of the system. Burdock Blood Bitters is a blood puri- fying remedy. One that has been on the market for the past forty years. One that is known from one end of the country to the other as the best blood purifier in existence. It cures boils, pimples and all other diseases arising from bad blood. BOILS CURED. Mr. Andrew E. Collier, River Glade, N.B., was troubled with boils for years, in fact, did not know what it was to he rid of them until he used Burdock Blood Bitters. It cured him. PIMPLES CURED. Mr. Otto Boyce, Yorker, Ont., had his face and neck break out with pimples. He tried several kinds of medicine with out success. Two bottles of Burdock Blood Bitters banished them.

Yellow Transparent. Wolf River, Ben Davis and Northern Spy, are especially susceptible. Certain varieties of grapes and berries are also more susceptible than others. These diseases are so widely dis- tributed that theireradication is prac- tically impossible. but they can be very greatly reduced. The buyer of a tree is entitled to a healthy tree, and no fruit grower can afford to set in- ferior or diseased plants. The inspec- tion laws in the different states are becoming more and more strict every year with stock likely to carry these diseases. By observing the following rules these diseases can be reduced to a minimum: Nurserymen should- D4rst.-Grow their stock- on ground as nearly free from these diseases as possible. Never use ground which bas recently been set with cane fruits. Second. -Avoid injuring the young trees by cultivation. Third.-TJse the best grade, healthy seedlings for budding and grafting. Fourth. --"Use scions and buds from trees known to be absolutely healthy. The roots, trunk and branches of trees from which the scions are cat should be free from all forms of the disease. Fifth. -When root gall is prevalent budding is much to be preferred to root grafting, especially with suscepti- ble varieties such as Wealthy. Sixtb.-If root grafting, is practiced the following precautions should be taken: Make close fitting grafts, leaving no exposed cut surfaces. Wrap each graft well with soft was - ed cloth. Avoid wrapping with waxed string or raffia. Store root grafts in clean moist sand at temperatures above 32 degrees, but not to exceed 35 to 40 degrees. Plant as early in spring as soil condi- tions permit - Handle grafts carefully in planting so as not to make any wounds upon the roots or disturb the callous forma- tion upon the Ant stirtaces of scion and stock. Avoid injury toplants in'subsegnent cultivation. Seventh. -Propagate by budding so tar as possible the few varieties most susceptible to crown gall and hairy root.
