HORTICULTURAL IDEAS FROM JOHN CRAIG, EXPERIMENTAL FARM, Showing Why and Hew to Spray Fruit Trees, Grape Vines,Eto.—About Healthy Foliage and Fungi. The three short bulletins given here- with have beemsent out to the press by Mr. John Craig,'! Horticulturist of the Experimental Farm, Ottawa: WHY AND HOW TO SPRAY. Spraying with arsenites for the pre - tion of insect attacics has, by progressive fruit growers, become a recognized ne- cessity and is now' widely practised. Spraying with copper compounds for the prevention of fungous diseases is rapidly gaining in favor and the value of the remedies recommended has been demon- strated by the orchardist, as well as the experimentalist. Fungous diseases will in all probability increase in proportion as the food plants upon which they prey are multiplied, andas climatic and other conditions are favorable to their development. Spray- ing, therefore, must be resorted to, and in order to derive the greatest benefit, it ehould be greatly practiced. The value of the efforts of one man who faithfully sprays his orchard is greatly lessened If his neighbor neglects preventive mea- sures and eo allows his orchard to serve the purpose of a breeding ground for the spores of fungous diseases such as pear and apple "scab." The law relating to Peach Yellows and Black Knot of the plum are based on the necessity of united action on the part of fruit growers in order to rid themselves of these pests. These statutes have not, however, .been, as rigidly enforced as their importance deserves and may be said to have been beneficial just so far as the letter of the law has been com- plied with. As the treatment is entirely preventa- tive, in order to make spraying effective it must be commenced early. All parts of trees or plants must be reached with the preventative agent, Drenching is not necessa7 and is expensive. A thin film or coating of the fungicide deposit- ed upon the foliage will prevent the de- velopment of the spores as well as a com- plete soaking; but it is important that all the leafy surface should be wetted at least on the upper side. For orchard work a good forte pump, which may be fitted into a barrel—side or end—will give satisfaction. It must be of sufficient strength, and fitted with a nozzle which will project the spray in a fine state of division, yet with sufficient force to enter the deeper recesses of the foliage. More expensive pumps drawn and oper- ated by horse power may be purchased, but are seldom nepessary except for large orchards. The Vermorel nozzle is a very satisfactory instrument for dis- tributing the liquid.1 EXPEkIMENTS IN T14EATING GRAPE MIL- DEW AND ANTHRACNOSE. Two diseases of the grape are more or less prevalent in Canada. lat. Grape mildevr (Peronospora viti- cola). 2nd. Anthracnose or Bird's-eye rot (Sphaceloma•ampelinum). They have both been already referred to in the annual reports of the Horticul- turist. As pointed out in the past, No. 1 is amenable to the Ammoniacal Copper Carbonate treatment. The Farm vine- yard was sprayed with this ' fungicide the past season, except three vines each of a few varieties which are peculiarly subject to mildew. These were reserved to compare the efficacy of dilute Bor- deaux mixture and Ammoniacal Copper Carbonate. The vines were sprayed three, tines, the first application being made on May 18th, the second on June 10th, and the third on July 18th. In the case of Noah and Pearl, which in the past have been most seriously affected, the results of the treatment were as follows: ; NOAH. Dilute Bord 'aux mixture, 1 vine, 11 lbs. grapes. Am. copper carb., 1 do 18 do Untreated, 1 do 34 de P Dilute Bordeeux mixture, 1 do , 4 Am. copper oath., 1 do 34 Untreated, k 1 do a HEALTHY FOLIAGE. . It should be remembered by every fruit grower that in order to obtain well- developed fruit the foliage must be healthy and able to perform all its func- tions; and further that it is easier in a rainy seesoln by spraying to destroy the form of he fungus attacking the leaf than th attacking the fruit. This may be due t the fact that the spraying com- pound i not as easily washed off the more or less hairy surface of the leaf as it is from the comparatively smooth skin of the fruit. By thus preserving the foliage in a healthy condition not only is the fruit of the current year more fully developed, but the growth of the season more perfectly matured and better fittedfor the production of good fruit the following year. do do do THEI CODFISH ATONES. Newfoundland Has No Frogs, Toads, Liz- ards, Tur'tles, Fireflies or Squirrels. "Everybody knows that there are no snakes in Ireland," said a native of St. Johns,' N. F. , "but very few, I guess, know that Newfoundland is just like Ire- land in that respect—and. there is no re- cord that Newfoundland had a St. Pat- rick to drive the snakes off, etiher. "There is plenty of game in New- foundland, but nota reptile of any kind --snake, toad,‘frog, lizard, or even tur- tle. Another queer thing about the province is that while some wild ani- mals are Abundant there, no one ever saw a (squirrel, porcupine, mouse, or lynx anywhere within its 'boundaries. This is all the more singular 'because the adjoining provinces of Nova Scotia and Cape Breton have all of these animals and many kinds of snakes and other rep- tiles. On tile other hand, the Arctic hare is abundant•in Newfoundland, but is not found in Nova Scotia or Cape Breton. The summee nights of Nova Scotia are made brilliant by fireflies, but no firefly ever lights up a Newfoundland nocturnal landscape by its spark -ling flight. Yet there are swamps and bogs innumerable in Nova Scotia which one would naturally suppose would be the choicest kind of breeding places and retreats for reptiles of all kinds, say nothing of insects of which there is a remarkable scarcit4 in Newfoundland."

NEW MUSICAL INSTRUMENT. _Great Things. 'Directed front the Vlolon- callo-Piano. The manufacturers of musical instru- Detente as well as others have for years been endeavoring to free the tone of the piano from its metallic harshness. The aim has been to produce a mellow "sing- ing" quality", possessing' as much as Dos - 1 11 sioie tee nein:may and sustained charac- ter of the human voice. A thoroughly satisfactory solution of this problem has not been reached as yet, but great ef- forts are constantly being made toward its accomplishment. Profes.o I1. de Blaminck, of Paris, has made a great VIOLONCELLO-PIANO—END VIEW. step in the right direction. He has con- ceived ihe idea t) construct an instru- ment which would combine the special features of a string instrument, consider- ed as leading, with that of the accom- panying piano. Under the piano a vio- loncello or a violin is attached and closely connected with the piano. The left hand of the player tontrols the keys, while the right guides the bow of the string instrument. An ingenious mechan- isin causes the mellow clearnees of the tone produced upon the string instrument to - e#4/ 4,44aak' .11.1.011V VIOLONCELLO PIANO—FRONT VIEW. keep up with the established pitch of the piano and imparts a great purity and sweetness to the tone of the latter. It is also easy to produce the so-called tremolo as well as sustained organ tones On this piano, which is something that is impossible to obtain from the ordinary pianos now in use. When the violon- cello -piano embraces five octaves it is said to be capable of taking the place of every stringed inetrument. -It ha 4 met 'with the strong approval of leading musicians, and great things are expected from this starting innovation in the piano world. SOMETHING NEW IN GEOMETRY - Solution of the Old Problem of Triseoting An Angle. Apply the straight edge so that while it will pass through the pointed the dis- tance C B on its edge will be exactly in- cluded between the curve and the exten- sion of its diameter, Draw the line d 0 DIAGRAM OF THE DEMONSTRATION. and the dotted radius a b, and the thing is done. For the triangle a b c is isosceles, therefore the angles at its base are equal, and each of them is equal to half the exterior angle B. Also the angles Bo and B are equal, being parts of an isosceles triangle. Therefore angle C is half the angle B. And in the larger tri- angle the Sum of the angles C and B is equal to its exterior anile A. Hence the angle 0 is one-third of the magnitude of the angle A, and angle B is two-thirds the magnitude of A. The long -pending geometrical problem, how to trisect a plane angle, hasbeen solved within the last few days, and the solution is so simple as to excite surprise that it was not found out sooner. The thing was worked out by Mr. 0. M. Tennisen of New Orleans and sent by him to the Thies -Democrat of that city. The solution will ue understood easily by reference to the accompanying dia- gram : Draw tvvo straight lines forming the given angle A, the third part of which it is desired to find by construction. Extend one of the linesindefinitely, and on it describe a semicircle of any convenient radius, having its center at a. On any convenient straight edge, as that of a ruler, lay off a distance, C 13, equal to the radius of the circle. Scientific Clippings. The waters of the Atlantic ocean are a sort of whirlpool on a gigantic scale, the central point of which is a short distar1c3 to the southwest of the Azores. Twilight is longest toward the poles, where the night of six months is short- ened by an evening twilight of about _fifty days, and a morning one of equal length. At the equator the length of the evening twilight is about one and a quarter hours, and remains almost con– stant the entire year. One of the visions of Jules Verne is likely to become a reality. Experiments have demonstrated to the satisfaction of experts of the navy that a ship can be constructed with a capacity for sub- merging itself and moving below I the 3urface of the water rapidly and utder strict control. - Laraoid is a cement for iron and ttone that is now being introduced by a Vienna firm. The Austrian authorities speak of the compound in the highest terms. It consists of sulphur, iron, silicic acid, and alumina, and it is used in a molten con- dition. Its applications in iron and stone work are stated to be numerous. It serves also as an electric insulator. It melts at 125 degrees 0., and cools quickly. A Steam and teas Motor. An English engineer has devised an engine for producing motive power b' the joint use Of steam and a combustible gaseous mixture in such a manner that there is claimed to be little or no loss of steam by the cooling of the cylinder, re- sulting from expansion, and little or.no loss of heat derived from the combustion of the inflammable mixture.
