The Bordeaux—Paris Green mixture is prepared to the following formula:— Copper sulphate or blue stone 4 pounds, Fresh Lime 4 pounds, Water 40 gallons, Paris Green 4 to 6 ounces. The blue stone is dissolved in 15 to 20 gallons of water in a barrel and in an- other barrel the lime is slaked carefully and 10.to 15 gallons of water are added to make a milk of lime. Then the con- tents of the two barrels are poured into the spray barrel through a strainer. Finally the Paris Green is made into a paste with water and ptit into the barrel along with the Bordeaux. It is very necessary that the agitator should work while pumping is going on so as to keep the Paris Green well distributed throughout the mixture. Use a good spray pump and spray the trees care- fully at the times mentioned above. The practice of banding trees is com- mendable, but everything takeninto account, is more expensive than spray- ing, and is more over, actually harmful unless the bands are examined and the larvae destroyed every ten days or two weeks during the latter half of June and all of July. Every fruit grower should acknow- ledge the value of such birds as the Chichadoe, Downy Woodpecker, Nut- hatch, Bluebird, Swallows, Wren, and Song Sparrows ill checking the increase of the Codling Moth and other injurious insects, for without them fruit could scarcely be grown. Encourage the birds, therefore to come about the or- ohard by keeping the gun at a distance, and by punishing the robber of birds' nests. —Speaking at a press gathering not long since a leading Montreal newspaper man made the very truthful remark that among the best printers and those usually the first to advance to leading positions, were the graduates of the country newspaper offices, where in- struction is had in not only one or two but all branches of the business.
