Salt as an Insect Destroyer.

As a remedy against cut-wIrms a Michigan
man applies salt and ashes at the rate OF
a barrel to the acre. The mixture is sowed
Just ahead of the plow. His object is to
get it under with the green sod, which the worm
must feed on until the corn comes. He reports
having planted two ten-acre fields to corn. On
one he plowed under his mixture On the
other he did not. The field which had received
the mixture had no worms. The other was in
tested, but as soon the corn came up and
the worms began to operate he applied salt
ashes and plaster in eQNal parts 1t appeared
to do the business for the worms stopped
working.
There is abundant evidence of the same sort
from all parts and il becomes the enterprising
farmers of the West-Kansas most Of ALTO
use salt both a bug-destroyer and as a fertii-
izer: thus increasing their crops and aiding
materi ally the development of the salt indus
try-;o make that of Kansas grow, and not di-
miuish that of other States.
In this use of salt il is well to proceed with in
telligent caution. Don't be too niggardly to use
enough; don't be so careless or extraragant as
to use too much. Salt destroys insect life. 1t
also destroys vegetable life il enough be used.
The quantity that is enough TO destroy chinch-
bugs will also kill many small weeds. Larger
quantities will kill grain or even trees Fortu'
naiely, most of our u eful plants will stand a
great deal of SALT. but some of them will be-
come salt to the taste before they are killed.
From the testimony given in Salt Sayings
and agricultural papers II appears that less than
! two bushels tS the acre produces little good.
From a0I 10 400 pounds per acre appears a
range of quan dty within which the fertilizing
| qualities of the mineral are conspicuous, and
its powers as an insecticide certain.

The salt of Kansas belongs to various geo.
logic periods. and is found under great part OF
the surface OF the State. Many deep wells east
OF the sixth principal meridian have their
waters strongly saline from deposits OF the Car
boniferous period In Northernmiddle Kansas
there are extensive marshes that yield the
saline infiorescence in large quantity. and
springs that yield strong brine. On the Indian
torier of Comauche County the plains Of the
Cimarron become covered with thick, white
cake OF beautiful salt. The Great Spirit Spring
in Mitchell County, is a natural artesian flow
of salt water with other mineral ingredients.

seeking coal and gas, has found rock salt in
beds from ten te one hundred feet thick in the
