SPRAYING FOR MUSTARD. DY FRANK T. SHUTT, M. A, CHEMIST, DOMIN- ION EXPERIMENTAL FARMS. One of the moat persistent weeds that farmers -in many parts of Canada have to contend with is mustard, commonly known in Europe as charlock. Though an annual, it is most difficult tei eradicate from fields in which it has become established, owing to the fact that the seeds -of which a large number is formed -are endowed with a strong vitality and are preserved, by the oil they contain, from decay until favour- able conditions for sprouting occur. Pulling the mustard when it appears among the grain, or keeping the weed fram seeding by sesorking the land (as under a hoed crop) ate the two methods which have hitherto beeo in vogue to exterminate this pest, and when the work is done thoroughly they may be considered satisfactory and efficient-. The former, however, is always costly, and ithe latter is sometimes not convenient. When, therefore, it was an- nounced in the Agricultural Press that spraying with certain solutions of sulphate of iron and shlphate of copper had been tried successfully in England and France:it was deemed advisable to make similar experiments here. We should then be in a position to furnish information at first hand on this subject. The fields of the Experimental Farm be- ink_free from his weed, it became necessary to make the t ials upon an adjoining farm, and for this p rooms a field of barley was selected which showed a considerable amount of mu tard. The size of the plot treated in eac case was one-tenth of an acre, and the uantity of solution uniformly aulpplied to ea h area was five gallons, or at the rate of 50 gallons per acre. The date of spraying was June 26tb, the grain being from 15 inches to 20. inches high, and the rhustard practically the same height and just coming into flower. The chief data may be briefly stated as follows :- Sulphate of iron, 5 per cent. : No effect upon barley, The leaves were practically all stripped fr m the stems of the mustard, but the weed as not killed, as evidenced by the new eaves subsequently starting, the plant flow ring and the seed -pods filling out and matu ing. The leafless stems were quite green a °alright after the. spraying, and were ap arently furnishing nourish- ment to the seed. Sulphate of iron, 10 per cent. : A slight scorching of s me of the leaves of the barley was to be noticed. A, fortnight after the spraying thi was not discernable, and, though this spray may have slightly re- tarded growth, it is not probabte that the yield of grain was affected. , . 'ellhough the effect upon the mustard was more pronounced than in the foregoing instance, as noticed by the "spotting" on vas not the stems, it as not suciently strong to prevent flowe ing and the ripening ef the seeds, a large proportion of which proved, upon testing, to be vital. Sulphate of copper, 2 per cent. : A certain amount of injury to the leaves of the barley resulted, evidently retard- ing growth to a somewhat greater. degree then the 10 per cent. iron sulphate solution. At the .end of two weeks, however, this effect had pnictically all CAMPERS Should take with them a supply of Dr. Fowler's Ext. of Wild Strawberry.

Prompt treatment with Dr. Fowler's Strawberry in such cases relieves the pain, checks the diarrhcea and prevents serious consequences. Don't take chances of spoil - 'mg a whole summer's outing through neglect of putting a bottle of this great diarrhcea doctor in with your supplies. But see that it's the genuine Dr. Fowler's, Extract of Wild Strawberry, as most of tile imitations are highl, dan- gerous. disappeared, and it became doubtful if there was any permanent injury trr-the grain. The mustard very quickly and markedly showed the effect of the spraying, both the stems and leaves dying witLout allowing the plant to Reed. Two weeks after spraying, a few living mustard plants were found in the plot, but it is believed they had escaped the solution, owing to the height and over- shadowing of the bin -ley. Sulphate of copper, 5 per cent. This solution damaged the barley in a much more pronounced manner than the preceding solu- tion ; in all probability it somewhat lessened the yield of grain, though, as the ground was very uneven in character, no no compara- tive data on this point could be obtained. The mustard was all killed; n inspection two weeks after the spraying d,id not reveal any living plants. . In order to ascertain the effect of these solutions upon this weed at a younger stage of growth than that just reperted upon, mus- tard seed was sown in rows in a plot upon the Experimental Farm. Wheu the must- ard plants had reached the height of six to nine inches they were sprayed, as follows : July 20th -Sulphate of iron, 5 per cent. • Not all killed; the few survivors possessed green stems and in time sent out new leaves. It is extremely doubtful, however, if the plants will have sufficient strength to floWer. Sulphate of copper, two per cent. All the plants died within a few days. July 22nd -Further sprayings were made. Sulphate of iron, 5 per cent. The stems were stripped of all their leaves, but in the course of a few weeks fresh leaves had ap- peared on many of the plants. Sulphate of iron, 10, pe!'eent. Though somewhat more severely attacked than by the five per cent, solution, there was sufficient vigor left in many of the Plants to send out new leaves,_ after a few weeks. Sulphate of copper, 2_ per cent. Only a very few of the older and more vigorous plants escaped destruction, probably not more thanehree t,o five per cent. This solu- tion is evidently strong enough to kill all mustard -plants six inches in height and less. Sulphate of copper, 5' per cent. All plants killed. From the above data, I make the follow- ing inferences : 1. That a 2 per cent, (2%) solution of sul- phate' of copper, (that is, 2 pounds in 10 gal- lons of water) is, all things considered, the moat effective, safest (as regards the grain crop) and most economical in use. The. spraying shoald be done thoroughly, and for that purpose 50 gallons per acre will be required. If a heavy rain follows the spray- ing within 24 hours the operation will be required to be repeated. 2. That, in order that the work may be effeetive, spraying should not be delayed after the mustard plants have reached a height of six or nine inches. If allowed to grow taller than this, stronger solutions would be necessary and in larger quantity, as the grain would then largely protect the mustard. For many valuable suggestions and much assistance in the work I am indebted to Mr. W. T. Macoun, horticulturist of the Ex- perimental Farm, who concurs with me in the deductions drawn from this investiga- tion. • The Zurich Show. _ HORSES, -Draught-Brood mare and foal, Donald McKinnon, Jae Gauld.
