BULLETIN OFTHE ONTARIO AGRICUL-
TURAL
GRICULTURAL COLLEGE.
The Fungi are Parasites, and 'Require
Special Treatment—What That Treat-
ment is—How to Destroy 'Suets, smuts,
Mildews and Blights—Valuable Fungi-
cides,
Bulletin 87 of the Ontario College of Ag:
riculture. Which relates to the destruction
of tnischievous insects and fungi, was pre-
pared by J. Hoyles Penton, M. A., F.G.S.,
professor of Natural History and Geology.
We give that part of the bulletin which re-
lates to "fungicides,"
Fungicides may be defined as chemical
compounds or mixtures used for the pur-
pose of destroying such injurious forms of
plant life as live upon other plants byab-
sorbing their juices, whereby they affect
their vitality. The rusts, smuts, mildews
and blights are examples of such parasitic
forms of plant life. Amoug the tort com-
mon fungicides are the following :
Bordeaux Mixture.—There are various
forme of this mixture, the following being
most commonly used :
(1) Consists of six ib. of copper sulphate,
4 lb. lime and 22 gals. of water. This may
be prepared as follows : Dissolve the cop-
per compound in sixteen gals of water ;
Blake the lime in 6 gals. of water, and when
the latter it cooled pour it into the copper
solution and min thoroughly.
(2) A modified form is made by taking 4
lb. of copper sulphate, 41b. of lime and 50
gals of water (Green's formula).
(3) Another form is made by taking 6 lb.
of copper sulphate, 4 Ib. of time and 60
gals. of water (Weed's► formula).
Theae diluted mixtures have been proved
to be very successful, and are now common -
1 used. An advantage is gained by using
Bordeaux mixtures, since Paris green may
be added so as to combine insecticide and
fungicide. Sofar experience indicates the
Bordeaux mixture to be one of the best
funggicides known.
Eau Celeste.—Consists of 2 Ib. of copper
sulphate, 1 quart of ammonia and 50 gals.
of water. Dissolve the copper sulphate in
2 gals. of hot water ; as soon as pool add
the 1 quart ammonia and dilute to 50 gals.
A modified form has been very successful,
viz.: 2 Ib. copper sulphate dissolved in 2
gals. of water, 2a} lb, of sodium carbonate
(washing soda) dissolved in another vessel.
Mix these and when chemical action has
.eased add 2 quarts of ammonia and dilute
to 50 gale.
Copper Sulphate. -1 ib, popper sulphate
in 25 gals. of water ; spray early upon
vines, etc.before leaves appear.
Ammoniacal Solution of Copper Carbon-
ate. --Dissolve 3 oz. of copper carbonate in
2 quarte of ammonia, and when sbout to
use dilute it to 50 gals.
Galloway's Mixture No. 5.—Equal parte
ammoniated copper sulphate and ammonia
carbonate, used at the rate of 8 t0 12
ounces in 25 gals. of water.
Potassium Sulphide.—Consists of 1 os.
potassium sulphide to 2 gale. of water.
In applying the above remedies the fol.
lowing precautions should be , carefully ob-
served :
1. Keep poisons labelled, and out of the
way of children.
2. Do not spray so far into the season as
to affect the fruit.
3. In making emulsions remember the in-
flammable nature of coal oil.
4. Neter spray trees in bloom.
5. Try solutions on a small soak if likely
to injure foliage, and watch results.
6. Be careful and thorough in your
work.
Careful analyses show that there is no
ground for alarm regarding the effect of
spraying fruit trees with Paris green.
The foregoing mixtures are usually ap-
plied by spraying machines, which eau be
procured through any responsible eeede-
man. -As copper compounds act upon tin
and iron it is well to prepare such mixtures
in earthen, wooden or press vessels.
- The Bordeaux mixture is rather dirty to
work with, and inclined to clog' elle jet.
Nevertheless it is about as effectual a fun-
gicide as has yet been discovered. If used
too long in the season it is apt to affsot
the appearance of the fruit. This can,
however, be washed off with a dilute solu-
tion of vinegar.
Cost of the Mixtures. A fair idea of the
cost of the various mixture s may be had
upon an examination of the following price
list of substances used in the different
formulas:
Ammonia, 26c. perlb. - retbrum, 40c per ib.
Copper carbonate, OOe. Copper sulphate, 12c. per
per lb. lb
Paris green, 30e. per ib. Sodium carbonate 5o, per
lb.

Bulletin 87 also gives a number of "in-
secticides." Those are compounds or mix-
tures used to destroy insects injurious to
vegetation. We have not space for them
now, but may refer to the "combined mix-
tures."
Combined Mixtures.—By the combina-
tion of an iuseotioide with a fungicide we
are able at the same time to cope with in-
jurious insect and plant life. A good ex-
ample of this can be seen in the application
of a combined mixture to potatoes, in
'which case the beetle may be destroyed
and the blight prevented. While Combat-
ing the "spot" of the apple the coddling
moth may also be fought if a combin-
ed mixture be used.
(1) 4 oz of Paris green added to Bordeaux
mixture (No. 2 or 3) makes an exoellent
combination.
(2) The following is also recommended : 2
oz of Paris green and 2 oz of copper oar-
bonate dissolved in 3 pints ammonia, ; ib.
of lime added to 32 gals. of water, and the
whole thoroughly mixed. It is necessary
to add the lime, or the foliage will be
damaged.

DEVICES FOR POULTRY YARDS,
Coop For a Broody Hen and Pneumatic
Fountain for Drinking Water.
A useful contrivance for removing the no-
tion of hatching from a sitting hen is shown
in the engraving from a sketch by M. E.
Brown, of New Hampshire: The top and
bottom of the box are boards two feet long
and one foot wide. A board door, one
AN ANTI -BROODING GOOF.
foot square, is fastened by hinges at one
end. The sides of the coop are slatted for
ventilation. The broody hen is placed in
the coop, the door is fastened and the box
is tipped up witJablooks on one side so that
the hen has to stand up and cannot sit
down comfortably. Under these conditions
the hatching fever soon leaves the thorough-
ly discouraged hen, and she is soon laying
again.
Pneumatic Fountain for )poultry,
One of the best troughs for supplying
fowls with drinkingwater is made of an
empty five -gallon erosene can as shown
in the illustration from sketches by C. H.
Riley, of Oregon. A hole two and one-half
inches square is scut near the bottom as in
Fig. 1. Next cut an enipty tin can in two,
and about three inches deep as in Fig. 2,
and bend the edges in at right angles.
With a soldering iron, solder this section of
can to the five gallon tin opposite the hole
at Fig. 1, so that when the section is fixed
on, the hole will be" one -half-inch lower
than the top rim of Fig. 2. The two put
FIG. 1. FIG. 2. FIG. 3.
together' are seen in Fig. 3. The result is
that chickens cannot tramp through and
soil; the water. Five gallons will hold
enough for a large flock of fowls, and the
drinking pan fills as quickly as they drink
from it, and by throwing a sack over the
fountain it will keep cool in hot weather,
which would be a great advantage in warm
climates, It is easily moved from place to
place, and is far preferable to open dishes,
whioh get so hot in the sun. There must
be no holes in the kerosene can, except tho
one below, or else the water would alt rush
out, and for the same reason the one hole
must be a trifle lower than the top of the
tin they drink from. The inventor has
found it to act very well, and sends this de-
scription, trusting that other poultry lovers
will find the contrivance satisfactory.—Are-
eeiosn Agriculturist.
1. Apple Spot.—(1) Spray with Bordeaux
mixture No. 2, making first application in
spring before the blossoms open. Spray
again as soon as the fruit is well forme
Now add 3 oz. of Paris green to the barrel
and make three applications at intervals of
two weeks. These last applications will
destroy insects as well as the spores of the
"spot" fungus.
(2) Copper carbonate ammoniacal solu-
tion referred to and Rau Celeste are also
good remedies. With these the first appli-
cation should be made previous to blossom-
ing, the second when the fruit is about the
size of peas, and the third two or three
weeks later.
2. Brown Rot of plum, cherry and peach.
Use the Bordeaux mixture in the same way
as for apple "spot." Burn all affected fruit
and leaves in the fall. If "rot" should set
in make one or two sprayings with Dopper
carbonate solution.
3. Pear Leaf Blight, which appears on
both leaves and fruit, giving the leaves a
spotted appearance and causing the fruit to
crack.
(1) Spray with amfnoniaoal solution of
copper carbonate as soon as the leaves be-
gin to open, and repeat two or three times
at intervals of two weeks.
(2) Use Bordeaux mixture as for - apple
"spot."
4. Strawberry Leaf Blight.—Spray dur-
ing July and August. every two weeks,
with the following solution : 4 oz. of copper
carbonate and two quarts of ammonia in a
barrel of water.
5. Gooseberry Mildew.—Spray with 1 oz.
of potassium sulphide in two gallons of
water. Begin as soon as the leaves are
opening, and repeat about every three
weeks.
6. Grape Black Rot.—Spray with am-
moniacal solution of copper carbonate of
Bordeaux mixture (No. 2 or 3) six times,
every two weeks, commencing early in
May. if the last two sprayings are with
the copper carbonate the fruit will not be
disfigured.
7. Grape Down Mildew.—Spray with
Eau Celeste about ten days before blossom ;
give another application as soon as the
berries are set, and a third about three
weeks later.
8. Raspberry Cane Rust.—Spray with
Bordeaux mixture (No. 2) before the leaves
appear and two or three times after ; but
not after the blossoms open.
0. Potato Blight.—Apply Bordeaux mix-
ture (No. 2) three or four times, administer -

Year After Year.
Year atteryear the blighting curse of drink
Sweeps o'er our land with pestilential breath,
While yearly thousands of its victims sink
Into the gloom of an eternal death.
The traces of its devastating course
Are seen in every hamlet of our land,
While blasted lives which date to it their source,
Dread monuments of testimony stand.
No fired incarnate, with the power of hell,
Could work each dire destruction half so well
Year after year, with ruin in its train,
O'er Canada has swept this tidal wave ;
Man's petty will resists its power in vale,
And, failing fills a drink -dishonored grave.
The sweetest joys of home are turned to gall,
And family ties are broken and accursed ;
While everywheve the power of alooidnl
'Mong Satan's influences rank the first ;
Reason dethroned, and manhood's vigor marred—
Man, ruined here, from heavers's gate is barred t
Year after year we're seen the work go on
With feeblest efforts to o'ertura its sway.
And in the night but faintest signs of dawn
Proclaim the Doming of the wished for day.
Intemperance. in spite of alt we've done,
Still rarefies, unchecked, Canadian land.
The battle fought for years is still unwoa
By Prohibition's soant and noble band.
The drunkard's cry for helpstill rings unheard,
And still our claims for ustice are deferred.
Year after year,and what shall be the end f
Shall righteous law and justice ne'er prevail ?
Shall all our human efforts to defend
The happiness of home and loved ones fail ?
Shall it be trulysaid, in future years,
That we, as hristians, ne'er opposed the wrong,
But saorifioed the right to party fears
And by aaaeotia helped the curse alongt
But no, it must not, shall not, thus be said,

A. ][Method Whish Naves Conslderabl•
Work—Have Yon Tried it ?
When a nearly square field is to be har-
rowed after it is en'irely plowed, the work
stay be efficiently done by diagonal harrow-
ing. (See illustration). This is specially
adapted to working up sod or any ground
that it is necessary to drag crosswise of the
furrow. Enough tune and labor are lost in
turning around to amount to a good deal in
a day's harrowing. If we begin on the dia-
gram at a, working parallel to nd and let-
ting the heavy 'fall represent the path of
the harrow, it is evident that at least four-
„ teen turns will - be
necessary in going
once over the growl,
or twenty-eight in
twice over ; also that
after the line bd is
passed, we corns t•
• the fence at an acute
angle, making it
necessary to turn be-
fore driving to [fie
fence, or else to make
almost the complete circuit of 360° and turn
lo the right, or back upon the harrowed
ground. With the above method the harrow is
started at a tap the heavy line to c. The
rest of course may be best followed by
tracing up the heavy line on the diagram.
With but fifteen complete turns the ground
is harrowed twice and the fence always ap-
preached at an obtuse angle ; so the harrow
may be driven to the very edge and still
leave room to turn. Of course with a har-
row of ordinary width the central lino
would be much more nearly parallel to db
than appears on the diagram, the variation
not being noticeable in practical work. --

What a Monkey Thinks About
Whisky.
In my youth I had a friend who had a
monkey. We always took him out in our
chestnut parties. He shook all our chest-
nuts for us.! I !
!e
One day my friend stopped at a tavern,
and gave Jack about half a glass of whisky.
Jack took the glass and drank its contentr,
the effects of which set him skipping, hop-
ping and dancing. Jack was drunk, We
agreed to come to the tavern next day, and
see if Jack would drink again.
I called in the morning at my friend's
house ; but instead of being as usual on his
box, Jack was not to be seen. We looked
inside, and there he was, crouched up in it
heap. " Come," said his master, Jack
came out on three legs, applying his fore-
paw to his head. Jack had the headache.
