Here is a cure for cabbage worms

Here is cure for cabbage worms
from country girl that may be of in
terest to our readers: I'VE put out our
cabbage; they were growing nicely and
the small leaves were turning in when
the worms appeared in plenty | had
never heard of any cure and had no
faith in this one, but l took a bucket,
filed it several times with wood ashes,
went TO each little plant and threw in a
small handful. During the night there
was very light shower, which made a
lye and completely burned the worms
up. | never saw one of them since that
summer The cabbages grew very rap
idly, and we had large solid heads for
the experiment 1t is now twenty
years since we raised them. | think if
this cure will benefit farmers and gar
deners they should know it.

Fair because its everybodys Fair and
