son"^'. The house was then closed and left, in various experi- 

 ments, from forty-five minutes to f6urteen hours. When the 

 fumigation was given early in the afternoon of a bright clay, the 

 tomato plants were injured by the use of one ounce cyanide to 

 1000 cu. ft. of space. The same amount caused no trouble, how- 

 ever, when the fumigation was postponed until evening, a fact 

 which verifies Johnson's statementf. With i oz. cyanide to 1 500 

 cu. ft. of space the plants were not injured. In no case, how- 

 ever, is it considered advisable to fumigate when the sun is shin- 

 ing brightly, or when the temperature is above sixty degrees.
