much troubled by chjnch bugs is are crops

Many remedies for the chinch bug troubie
have been proposed, but really It Is not

We are frank 10 acknowledge thai we don :
know of any reliable means by which the
chinch bug may De circumveuted The
kerosene emulsion described by Us last
week has been highly recommended, but
we have neither tried It or seen il tried. In
our opinion the chirch bug visitation IS a

AGRASS EOR NAME.

Herewith find blades of Il grass which l
take TO be fescue grass. Please let me
know whether OF not il IS feScue grass, and
also whether or not It IS Il better grass than
broom Sadge. ". I. kURPENDALL.
Ashby, Tex.
1t IS not fescue grass, and we cannot tell
from the single blade received what grass
ii is, positively, though we rather suspect
it to be Johnson grass-the Sorghum hal
pense OF botauists. If il Is johnson grass
the question Is to whether or not il IS 4
better grass than broom sedge would depend
upon circumstances. If YOU desire TO give
YOUR farm up wholly to grass it would beat
broom sedge by long shot. If YOU don't
wish TO give your farm up that way, aud
yet ought to move to some other locality
but can't get the consent of YOUR mind 70
do so, it viii prove better than broom Sedge,
for in few years it will force YOU TO move
away to get rid Of il. Where johnson grass
becomes fairly located It IS there to stay and
ii is selfish enough not to allow any other
growth to stay with II. Broom Sedge is
next door 70 worthless as q grass-Johnson
grass is fairly good grass for both hay and
pasture. With these few facts before you we
conclude that you will be able TO decide for
yourself as 10 which of the two IS the better
grass.
For positively identifying . grass it IS
necessary that we have the entire plant
taken while in bloom.

POTATO FLOUR.

Some OF our consular reports to the
United States department of state represent
that Germany does large business in the
manufacture of -four from the Irish potato.
The -four is used for culinary purposes, and
for multifarious purposes in the mechanical
arts. Sausage makers use it in consider
able quantities; bakers and confectioners
make extensive use of it. Textile and
weaving establishments use it, calico print
ers use it, silk workers use it, and it is
manufactured by the wholesale, so to speak,
into glucose syrups and grape sugars.
Professor Darrell says the sweet potato
Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1891-05-31

their no more industrious neishbors; and
who eventually demand forced relief to
come from sources beyond the fence OF he
farm: in other words, they fall into farming
with their mouths rather than with the
brain and the hand, a species of farming
which, while it may pay some ring leader
for a little season, will pay tue actual
workers worse than any kind of farming
they could possibly engage in. There is no
such thing as honestly obtaining something
for nothing If we get money without
holding up" a man, and taking it from
him by brute force, we must have some
thing to give in return for it.
He who uses in his farm operations, the
best agricultural implements TO be had, and
who saves everything possible on his farm,
converting it to some good use, and who
makes the best of his time, and who follows
that branch of farming for which his land
and conditions are best adapted, is on the
straight road to cheap production.and fnan-
cIal success.

TAECuNCI{ BUG.

Some of rs farmers IN this neighborhood
are troubled with the cfinch bug VIII
You be SO kind as to tell Us through The
GAZETTE what to do to rid our corn of

to manage the cotton v-orln-nOw please do
as much for Us with reference to the chinch
bug, and much 0blige regular reader.
Kemp, Tex. y. G.. BURRow.
We need not describe the chinch bug,
owing TO the unfortunate fact that 1t is
well-known IN farmers in all regions where
it puts in an injurious appearance. Its
scientific name is Micropus lencopterus.
The matured insect lives through the win
ter in comparatively small numbers and

probably. would be to get vines from The
woods of regions where the mUScadines
grow. ANY vine of this species growing in
the muscadine regions, that mas never been
known to bear fruit. is almost sure 70 be u
male vine, ana therefore layers from 1t
might be quite safely risked.
The Texas nurserymau who will 20
largely into propagation Of the scupper,
nong, supplying both sexes. will eventually
have a good thing on his hands. He can
safely warrant his scuppernongs 10 be
fruitful in Texas.
The wild muscadine grows abundantly IN
all the lower states east of the Mississippi
river, and we think it grows also in the
long-leaf pine regions of Eastern Texas
Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1891-05-31

yields as fine a potato -four as the Irish
potato, and turus out much larger per
cent of the pure article to the bushel.
All of which furnishes hint that the
Texan might take with advantage 10 his
state and profit TO himself. Potato -four
could be manufactured as well here as in
Germany, and under correct management
we can make 400 bushels of sweet potatoes
to the acre rather sure thing. We have
already shown that there is undoubtedly
millions for Texas in the manufacture of
glucose from the sweet potato-this flour
manufacturing might be made an adjunct TO
the glucose plant. 1t is our honest opinion
that Texas has no better thing than she
might find in extensive sweet potato cult
ure, and this is certainly saying great
deal for the industry
