Brush Killers Can Be Painted On Trees Trees several inches in diameter are more easily killed by painting on brush killers than by spiaying the foliage, and with much less lisk of injurying nearby plantings from di if ting spray. The newer hoimone biush killers are designed for use m weak -water solutions as foliage sprays or in oil solutions for tiunk treatment, ex plains Dr Otis F Cuitis of tlie Ex periment Station at Geneva Mixed with kerosene or fuel oil, they can be applied to the lower foot of the trunk of the plant to be destioyed \The great disadvantage of the hormone biush killers is that the merest trace of the chemical can in jure oi kill many crop and garden plants,\ warns Doctor Curtis \As little as one one-hundredth of the normal biush killing doge can ser damage grapes, tomatoes, cab bage and its relatives, and Tine crops Care must be exeicised to avoid drift of the spiay towaid these crops; also spiayers used for apply mg brush killers should not be used for spraying crops\ To avoid much of this hazaid and particularly foi use on tiees ten feet m height or more, a so called basal trunk treatment is lecommended, Using oil instead of water because of its greater peneratmg qualities. The basal treatment can be made at any time of year and a gallon of spiay applied by this method will go at least 20 times as fai as with^ fol- iage spiaying. Smaller equipment can also be used such as a knapsack s'prayer even an old paint biush In an article on brush killers available upon request to / the Experiment \Sta- tion, directions are also given foi the destruction of stumps with mirfmes of oil and brush killers and by other means.

R Aldrich, professois of field ciops at Cornell University, Piofessor Aldiioh points out that farmers who lift themselves above the average with a »good lime and soil-fertility program will be in a better position to withstand the cur- rent cost-price squeeze. iSoil tests by county agricultural a,gents show that the average acidity of farm fields has changed little in the past 25 years*, and that farmers are using smaller amounts of lime than are needed. Lime is a real bargain, too. Com- paied -with 1940, the money & farmer getsT-for one, ean of milk will buy 50 pei cent more lime, but 30 per cent less labor .and .15 per cent less ma- chraeiy. Since the prospects a£e not too good for increased ACP al- lotments, farmers should surely buy all the. lime they will need. \Those who failed to get enough lime into the ground thi$ sring can make it up now,'* Aldrich says. \Liming a new seeding after the grain is cut strictly an emergency measure, but is recommended where the legume stand is still good. ''Mitf-summer offers the best chan- ce to get lime when and where it is, needed,\ lie says. \As bulk Spread- ing becomes more popular, farmers aie using 1 more lime at this time\ For bulk spreading, the nelds shocld be dry and firm. Liming may be done after the first or second cutting of hay, or while the cowd are graz- ing the aftermath. In the fall, wheat ground or corn stubble aie good places to lime. ^ serve Bank of New York, Harold Stmeel, vice-president of the Con sohdated Car Heatmg Corporation, Dudley Cates of the Kidder, Feabody investment Canupany, and Lawrence Senesh, of the London School of Economics. t The worshop will operate from July 27 tp August 1, in^a jsummer session beginning June 29.
