FUNGUS IN CUTTING BENCH. 



I am much troubled by the damping 

 off of cuttings in the sand. Can I use 

 a spray to kill the fungous growth f 

 What is it and how do I use it? 



J.M. 



Possibly your drainage is not so good 



as it should be, below the sand. Then, 

 again, if the sand itself is too fine, it 

 will lack porosity and be more liable 

 to cause damping. If the latter is the 

 case, you can improve matters by mix- 

 ing some fine charcoal with the sand. 

 This helps ta keep it sweet as well as 

 open. To kill the fungi, stir up the 

 sand well and run live steam in it, if 



you can possibly do so. Failing this, 

 soak the sand well with boiling water. 

 This will destroy all fungi and make 

 the sand practically as good as new.
