in June an annual cattle judging:
tontest is held a t the Connecticut‘
Agricultural College to give actual!

ing had such courses in the college
or School of Agriculture, and it is an.
interesting climax to the work. it isl
made all the more attractive by an
offering of bull calves to the win-
here by breeder-Pin the state. The
high quality of the bulls offered
made a premium most fortunate to
the winner. .
John Hill. of Norwich, made the
highest 'total score in the contest this
‘year. The total score is obtained by
adding the grade for pla'cing the
animals ,and the reasons in support
of the placing for each class andl
totalling-the score for all classes.
Seven classes were judged, vis: Onet
of Ayrshires and two each of Guernj
eeys, Holsteins and Jerseys. This
year the sweepstakes man had a,
choice of bulls. They were offered
by Gardiner Hall Company, South}
Willington (Holstein), E. R. Dunn”
Southlngton (Jersey), and Hugh J}
Chisholm, Port Chester, N. Y. (Ayr.
shire). No sweepstake Guernsey
was offered. The Holstein bull,
whose dam has recently made twenty-z
eight pounds of butter in a week, wank
selected by Mr. Hill. Mr. Hill has
Holsteins on his home farm.

Spraying Potatoes.
Last year, due to moist hot weath-
er for August the losses from potato
blight (rot) werehcavy over large sec-
tions of the country. The continued
wet weather of this year may cause
similar injury and will also encourage‘
early blight. Spraying potatoes pays
even in normal years—in blight years
it makes the difference between suc-
cess and failure. ,
The spray commonly used in Bar-
deaux mixture, 5-5-50. That is. dis-
solve five pounds of copper sulphate
(blue vitriol) in a bucket of water.
I
llillicit five pounds Of quick lime, mixtlnvished on it. 1 often wonder wheth-
and make up to fifty gallons with
water. Be sure to strain into the
sprayer.
For potato beetles add to the above
spray mixture one pound of Paris
green and one pound of lime. The
lime prevents burning. Arsenate of
lead may be used instead of Paris
green.
Copper sulphate is very high this
year and it may be cheaper to use
the ready made sprays. Use these
according to directions.
The fifty gallons made as above'
ought to cover an acre. Be sure to
cover the vines well, using pressure
enough tomako a fine mist.
Begin to spray when the vines are
six-elgbtha inches high and repeat.
as often as necessary to keep them
covered all season. This means four
to eight sprayin‘gs. ».

“Water is just as important to the
birds as foods." says a writer in the
Woman's Home Companion, “and
sometimes is harder for them to find.
Any plans for attracting birds must
include some sort of water supply,
both for drinking and bathing. it is
