Will you please tell me what is the

 trouble? Also what is the cause?

Great Saving in Preparing 

 Land for Carnation Stock 



Following is what Eretschmar Bros., 

 of West Nyack. New York, say of the 

 System: 

 "It has always been a great expense 

 to prepare our land for the carna- 

 tion stock before planting, as each 

 day we would only plow enough 

 for the day's planting so tliat we 

 could work in moist soil. This also 

 would be all band raked to get it in 

 the best condition. We can now 

 plow the whole strip and harrow 

 with a spiked tooth harrow and use 

 the Skinner System after each day's 

 planting to water them down."

dragons. Its cause is problematical, but 

 it undoubtedly is spread by too much 

 atmospheric moisture. Damping of the 

 stems and foliage when watering will 

 increase it. Water on clear mornings 

 only and damp the foliage as little as 

 possible. Keep a dry atmosphere. Cut 

 away badly affected shoots. It would 

 be best to destroy badly affected plants. 

 Select a fine, sunny morning and give 

 the plants a spraying of Bordeaux mix- 

 ture. Repeat this eight or ten days 

 later and it will afford material relief. 

 Eely on seedlings rather than cuttings, 

 if yon would have your snapdragons 

 more nearly immune from disease.
