and also to many of the mandibuiate or
masticating insects, such as the apple
worm or plum curculio, when the
use Of arsenites is not advisable. Kerosene
emulsion may be made by means of vari-
GUS emulsifying agents, but the most sat-
isfactory substances, and those most avail
able to the average farmer and fruit
grower, are milk and soap suds. In each
of these cases the amount Of emulsifying
agent should be one-half the quantity Of
kerosene.

Heat the solution of soap, and add it

mixture by means of q force pump and

emulsion, if perfect, forms a cream
which thickens upon cooling and
should adhere without oiliness to
the surface of glass. If the water from the
soil is hard or has large percentage OF
lime, add little lye or bicarbonate of soda,
or else use rain water. For use
against scale insects dilute one part

sects dilute one part of the emulsion with
fifteen parts of water. For soft insects like
plant lice the dilution may be carried to

In this connection il may not be out Of
place to say that the Rothamsted expert
ments on pig feeding conducted many
years ago are still the best on the subject.
They showed that success depends more
on good judgment in selecting or on care
in breeding the pigs intended to fatten
than the particular kind of food given
them. Those who buy pigs for fattening
should therefore try and get good ones.

are increased by seeds, by divisions of the
rhizomes and by cuttings which strike
freely in sand and leaf mold. Leaf cuttings
succeed best when laid on sand and shaded
from bright sunlight.

of propagation is shown in the accom-

Many thick and heavy leaves may be
used as cuttings. Leaf cuttings are most
commonly employed in the showy-leaved
begonias and in gloxinias, but many plants
can be propagated by them.
Sometimes a whole leaf is used; again
it is divided into two parts and again into
triangular portions, as shown in the first
cut. Leaf cuttings are handled in the same
manner as sof. stem cuttings, so far as
moisture and temperature are concerned.
