CHANGING ‘III llX OI‘ CHICKS

lcienog is forging ahead in cur- ious fashion these days. Last year I read of the use of x-rays in chang- ing the sex of chicks-and expected the scientists engaged in the task. Lit- tle has been saldabout it to the present however, but I gather that the egg is exposed to the X-rays for the purpose of killing the chromo- some which would produce a male bird and st the same time stimulat- ing the female chromosome, which will produce s. pullet. As the fertile egg contains these elements of both sexes, the result of the treatment is pullet hatches, according to Paul R. Had- ley, of lianwoodpN. J. Experiments nducted at Guelph, and up to the present the treatment costs about $4 per pullet produced. This might be looked upon as discouraging, but excessive cost is the invariable initial accom-

LIMESTONE AGAIN

Since writing the article stressing the need of lime on sour soils, I st- tended the convention of the Live Stock Board, and heard a discussion on that question. There is no doubt that all were in favor of the use of lime, and some had found it to “work wonderszc" nevertheless Professor Baird sounded a note of warning. The value of lime ls, in great part, due to its power of rendering avail- Bbie the Plant 100d already in the soil; it must not be regarded as fer- tllizer.

Very frequently fruit is kept clean "hill late into August and then on ac- count of a few clays of close muggy weather, sufficient scab appears on the fruit io cause serious loss.

psble of- delivering the spray under an even pressure of 150 to 200 pounds. However, it must be understood that success is measured by the extent to which the leaves are coated. Grow- ers. therefore, must adjust the boom and nozzles so as to thoroughly coat the leaves with spray. The nozzle sr- rangement should be changed for each application to keep pace with the plant growth. Machines have a tendency to lose pressure at l-he ends o.‘ the rorvs, with the result that the plants in these areas are not prop- erly sprayed. 'I‘his is remedied by skipping every four rows going one way and spraying these 0n the return trip. In this way the sprayer covers sufficient distance on the turn to

maintain the pressure.
