farmer in Sudbury has carried home fifty
pounds to use on his own fields, If neces-
sary. Mr.. Williams is reliable man, and
there is no danger of misplaced confidence
in ordering by mail. The best way to ap-

of coarse cloth, and shake it over the hills
where there are bugs. Apply at night
when there is no wind, or in the morning
when the dew is on, but no wind. Mr..
Williams says at night is as good time as
any.
