y u T Success in Turkey Raising. At no time in the history of the world has it been so necessary to give thought and diligent care to the rais- ing of turkeys as the spring of 1920. All realize that the dollar has de- creased in value. In turkey raising we nntst manage- to make more money liy losing as few young as possible. Th© pairt wnter the top was reached In the price of turkeys on the market, and the deniau-l for breeders has been greater than the supply. Now is a splendid time to commence turkey raising. The reports of the turkey market show tremendous sales, and great numbers of egg orders. If anyone falls to make money with tur Poison Barri^e For Orchard Pests Unhappily, there U an Insect, fun- 1 gus, blight or pestilence of some sort j likely to attack almost every plant i that grows.

Raising turkeys is no ex- COptlGE. • Breeding tims-is now here; turkeys commence to lay in March. A tom can fortilize the eggs of twelve hens, so If possible keep that many. Furo stock is stronger and better in every way thaa scrub or mixed stock and and gives better satisfact'on. Settle your mind on the breed most adapted to your locality and the range of land you wish them to travel over. Select good stock from breeders who can fur- liish references.

At the outset one should remember there are two classes cf sprays: those which are intended to control Insects, commonly known as insecticides, and those which are intended to check or prevent disease, called fungicides. The solution intended solely to kill insect pests rarely has any value as a fungicide, and the out-and-out fungi- cide seldom has any virtue as an in- secticide. There are compounds, how- ever, which are designed as a combina" tion spray â€" for both purposes. A lime-sulphur solution is the foremost. Insect-destroying spriiys must be considered from still another angle. They must be selected according to the manner iu which the insects do their feeding. Certain species feed by biting and chewing; beetles, cater- pillars and worms are in this class. To kill them we simply distribute a poison on the fcliage or other parts of the plant on which they feed, and in this way reach the stomach of the pest, hence the term^stomacU pois- ons. Paris green is the old stand:by though in re- cent years arsenate of load has grown in favor, because it is less likely to in- jure the plants, also because it is not so easily washed off by rains. Insects which have no jaws, but w'lich do their feeding by means of piercing mouth parts that s^uck the plant juices from beneath the sur- I folding. This spray controls the cate> ' pillar, scab and leat-oating Insects. 1 Trees should nerc-r be sprayed while they are in full bloom. Not only will this interfere with pollination and probably destroy many bees, valuable agents of the orchardist, but it is like- ly to destroy the blossoms themselves. When the last cf the blossoms have fallen it Is a good time for the second summer spray, to control the coddling moth or apple v,-orm. The sprayer aims to fill the calyx cavity of the young fruit before its lobes close and render this safeguard impossible. As a rule, the next spraying is given when the fruit is about half ripe. The lime-sulphur sprays, Bordeaux mixtures and other compounds may be prepared at home, but unless the fruit- grower has a large number of trees, it will be better to buy the commercial brands sold by seed firms and farmers' supply houses, all ready to be diluted. Select Suitable Apparatus. Spraying apparatus, implements for applyi«g the solution, are required, of course, a selection of which depends mostly upon the amount of work to be done.
