New York AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. 143 
The cutting on this field was begun May 6, 1899, a total of 
forty-five cuttings being made in each row. The amount taken 
from each at each cutting was weighed separately and a record 
kept of the weighings. In this way we obtained the yielding 
capacity of each row. It was found that the rust had reduced 
the vitality of the field until it was yielding very lightly. ‘The 
last cutting was made July 1, after which the field was plowed 
down and allowed to grow. On July 28, the spraying was com- 
menced, every other row being sprayed. The odd numbers were 
sprayed, the even numbers being left as checks, as shown in the 
following chart:

The 1-to-8 formula Bordeaux mixture with resin solution added

made, the dates being July 28, August 10 and 26, September 
6 and 14. 
NOTES. 
The rust (summer stage) showed on the unsprayed rows 
August 19, and by August 24, had spread to all parts of these 
rows. They were killed by September 10, The ‘sprayed rows
