In the demonstrations given | on Tuesday and Wednesday, has shown that stumps can be blown out for a "cost as low as fifty cents. The larger the stump is, of course, the more dynamite it takes, and consequently | the more expensive is the operation. Ditching‘was successfully done on the Meadowview Farm at a cost of ten cents a foot. The farmers of Cape May County will not be able to procure lime next year from the State lime works, the preparations for carrying on | this work in the State Legisiature not being forthcoming, Those caring to take up the work «£ onion maggot control should . see ‘Shat materials are on hand and the yeison ‘applied"in the field soon after the onions are up, better befmc they «ome through the ground at all. ‘The Belleplain Cooperative Amsociation is in ‘the market for ten toms aff vetch‘ seed. ‘Those having vetch for sale in the County should send their names to this Office or to Thomas J. Durell, Belleplain, so thrt fra Association may not only aid them im distributing their seed, but that the wants in vetch seed of the entire «County will better be known.

A car of twenty-five tons of ground limestone from the Michigan Limestone and Chemical Company . has Reen given to the farmers of Cape May County ‘for demonstrating: the good qualities of this high grade limestone. The Executive Committee of the County Board of | Agriculture, which met in its regular meeting last Baturday, apportioned this lime to those who would carry out careful demonstrations with this materfal when compared with hydrated lime. The Fitst National Bank of Ocean «City, which carried out very successful work in the Pig Club last year hax received another lot of 100 fine animals, In most parts of the County the bude are showing pink on the apple trees. This means that the second spray is due. On peach trees the petals have mostly | fallen, . Here main the second spray is due. Two different materials, however, are used Tor apples and peaches. Do not con Tuse them. A blind cultivation or a good harrowing might prove to be a money maker for the potato grower, . for either will conserve moisture and kill the small weeds. In nome strawberry fields the strawLoo t has put in its appear ance. If you ‘eare to protect yourself against a possible injury | you . had better make an examination of your strawberry bud« and nee whether any . +4f them are cut and hanging. . If so the weevil is working and should be controlled by one pound of powdered arsenate‘ of lead to five pounds of commercial plowers of sulphur, dusted on the leaves and bloxnoms. J. A.
