Rubber hose of good (jualit}^ is most satisfactory for all kinds of spray work. The strongest and l^est hose will usually prove cheapest if i)roperly cared for. All hose should be thorouo^hlv washed, both inside and outside, at the close of each day's work, and it should be well scrubbed, w ashed, and dried when the spray work is com- pleted, and stored in a uniformly cool, dark, and medium dry place. Practice varies somewhat as to the internal diameter of hose used. One-half inch is perhaps the most common size. The external diameter of the hose should not be so small nor its flexibility so great that it will easily kink and twist upon itself. Hose which does this is a constant source of annoyance, causing loss of time and often endangering itself. Where possible, it is best to have all lines of discharge hose leading from the pump pass from the back end of the wagon, between two short stakes, one at each corner. With such an arrangement there is little danger of its being caught in the wheels or run over by them. Many lines of hose are injured or destroyed in this Avay. The stakes at the back corners of the wagon also serve as a means of winding up the hose preparatory to
