Wo deliver and ship anywhere. slight expense and without matorlnl Injury to tho grass, bypropor spray ing with an Iron sulfato solution. Ordinarily, four or fivo applications aro required. Tho first spraying should ho mado in May just boforo the first blooming period. Ono or two othors should follow at intervals' of threo 6r four weeks; and finally ono or two moro m the lato summer or fall. Dur ing tho hot, dry wonthor of mid-summer spraying should ho discontinued becauso of tho dangor of injury to thh grass. A conspicuous .blackonlng ot tho lawn which follows each appli cation would disappear if tho grass Is growing vigorously. Of tho otler com pion lawn weeds, somo aro killed Lwhllo others aro but slightly injured by tho spraying. Unfortupatly, whit a clover is also killed. Spraying should bo supplemented by tho nso of fertil izers and tho application of grass sooj in tho spring nnjl fall of oach year. With proper management it is neces sary to spray only about overy third year In order to keep a lawn practi cally freo from dandelions. Our experiments nt Geneva, New York indicate that nt least threo (or usually, five) .thorough applications during, a se.nson nro necessary to orndicate tho dandelions from tho av erage lawn in this state. To be the most offottUe tho epraylng should he .-epentt'J as soon an tho dandollon plant has l gnlurd n v follago ani Jnot befoe It U full Town usuiihy when tho leaves nro throe or four ln,ches long. This forces tho plnnts to use upthelr reserve food stored In the roots, nnd eventually starves them. On tho Station lawns, which were exposed to dandelion seeds from adjoining untreated lawns, it was found necessary to spray overy sec ond or third year, and to supplement tho spraying with other control measures. Tho tlmo of application appears to ho Important In our tests, tho host results wore secured .when tho Jlrpt application was mado In early spring Tho spray solution Is prepared by dissolving ono and ono-halt or tvo pounds-ot iron sulph'nto (also called copperas and green vitriol) in oach gallon of wntpr. Tho weaker solu tion appears to bo ontiroly satisfac tory, and is probably tho ono to bo proforrcd. Used at this strength tho quantity of Iron sulphnto (required for a Blnglo application is approxi mately 175 pounds per aero or folir (pounds por thousand squaro feot of lawn. A gallon of tho solution will covor about 375 squaro feet Iron sul phate for spraying purposes is usu ally offered for salo in tho granular or "sugar" form, which Is readily sol uble" In wator. It Is comparatively in expensive, costing, usually, from ono to two dollars per bag of one hundred poun)ls. Sinco it corrodes motals, tho solution should bo prepared in wood en or carthonwnro vcssols. Experlonco lins demonstrated rnth or conclusively that tho offoctlvonoRK Of illO HtirnV Rnllltlnn llnnn llin .Inn. I dolions depends, to a consldornblo ex tent, upon tho manner in which it Is applicjl. Tho best results aro secured whon tho solution is applied In tho form of a flno mlRt-iko spray woll driven down among tho follago. Wlillo fairly satisfactory results may bo expected when tho solution Is ap plied judiciously with a sprinkling can, it is recommended that Bomo fonn of a spray pump' bo used. Tin kind ot outfit selected should doponfl upon tho size of tho area to be treat ed. For sranll lawns a compressed air sprayer, knapsack sprnyor, dr good "bucket pump with brass cylinder, and equipped with a flno nozzle will bo found satisfactory;. While lor largo lawns a sprayer mounted on- wiioels Is dcslrcablo. Tho spray solution should bo strain ed through a flno strajnor or two tliickiicssos of cheesecloth to roniovo any particles which would clog tho nozzles. On' stone, cement, metals, nnd cloth Iron surphato solution produao.8 a conspicuous yollowlsh-brown rusty stnln which Is extremely difficult to romovo. Accordingly, caro should be taken to avoid getting any ot tho spray on ono'a clothing or on Bldownlks, building foundations, momtmonU-, curbstones and . tho Hko, Evon tho dragging of tho wet hoso across stono or comont sidewalks will stain thorn. Aftor using, tho sprayer sltoulU bo washed out thoroughly wflth clean water to provont serious rusting. Tho " working parts of tho spray should, ho kept well oiled. It is necessary to supplement tho spraying operations with nt least two aftor treatment measures, namoly, fertilization nnd rcsoodlng. ' W. P. SNYDER, Superintendent.'
