Whereas an apple grower was once content to apply a single spray, today many of them spray as many as nine times to control apple scab. It is true that insects and fungus >pests have greatly increased in numbers and that their working season is. appar­ ently longer. In any event the mod­ ern orchardist has found that it pays to spray early and often. Spraying appliances have shown noteworthy improvements. The old heavy rain made by early pumps and nozzles has changed to the .finest mist or fog covering trees thickly, thoroughly, and with less material used.

Bound, For Poultry Congress Prof. John Buchanan, Director of Extension at the Ontario Agriculture College, sailed last week on the Duchess of Bedford for England, to set up and arrange the Ontario Gov­ ernment' exhibit in connection with the World’s Poultry Congress, which •opens on July 22.

The Congress opens on July 22 and con­ tinues until July 31. Vetevinary Summer Courses The summer course for practical veterinarians which was so well liked last year is being repeated at the On-' tario Veterinary College, Gelph, from July 7tk to 11th. A'short course on the veterinary problems connected with the fox industry will also be held on July 14tli ands 15th at the College, when both breeders and vet­ erinarians will be present. I Tomato Crop Tinproveineint An extensive improvement pro­ gram for the tomato crop branch of farming has been planned by the Ontario Agricultural college, for Northumberland and adjoining coun­ ties. Accordingly T. IT. Jones and Mr. Butler of the Ontario agricultur­ al staff for the past few weeks have conducted experiments on farms in the Quinte district in the spraying of tomatoes in 'beds before being transplanted. Tomatoes under this treatment were sprayed at various stages of growth with Bordeaux mixture. The plants then were dis­ tributed to different growers, who will keep them under close observa- market The bruising of the flesh forced to cut side perhaps Injuries to Hogs Quite serious losses .are sometimes suffered from bruising of hogs while in transit, causes a discoloration, which the packers aye away, destroying the for the Wiltshire bacon trade.

Don’t expect someone else to clean up your difficulties for you. Tackle them yourself. The object of every dairyman should be a high producing herd, as too much time is now wasted on poor cows and efficient methods.” W. R. Reek, in- The Wbinemi’S' Institute In-There are now 1,150. Women’s stitutes in the rural districts of On­ tario with a, membership of over. .40,000. The Institutes exist' for promoting social contacts .and what­ ever is beneficial to the community as a whole, especially to women and children, through co-operative effort. The movement, started at Stoney Creek, in 1897, has now become world wide. Women’s Institutes, wherever they exist, are non-sectar- ian and non-political. Grading’ Wool Has Helped Canadian wools are now recog­ nized both at home and in otuside importing countries as. possessing highly desirable qualities. Since wool grading became a general policy several years ago, buyers have learned’ to look with confidence to Canada for supplies. In the last fiscal year a little less than 3,500,- 000 pounds were graded, slightly more than in. the preceding year. Wool grading has. had a very good effect on improving the annual wool clip and its preparation for market. The fleeces are ow received at the storages are well rolled and dyed and show a very small percentage of rejects or low grade wools.
