THOSE MUD HOLES.

For the past few days the roads
between here and Thatcher have
been almost impossible, caused by
water ponding in the roads and
creating mud holes that are dis.
grace to any civilized community,
besides being a great inconvenience
to the public at large.
BY little judicious road worn
at the right time of year, we be-
lieve, this deplorable condition of
the roads can be avoided. Dur
ing the rainy season, when the
water comes in floods, we know it
is impossible to keep it out of the
roads, but there is no necessity for
it remaining there, creating i'm
passable mud holes and disease
breeding nuisances.
1t has been the custom of the
road masters to fill up low
places In the roads by grading
from either side, leaving great
holes without any means of drain,
age. By continual travel over
these grades they cut up into 6n'
dust and blow away, leaving a low
place in the road capable of receiv
ing and retaining almost any
quantity of water, which cal

A gricultural Education.

Before the Industrial Commission at
Washington recently, appeared two
able witnesses, whose testimony called
loudly for the betterment of the condi-
ton of the farmer by educational aid.
These witnesses We're Dr.. A. G. True,
director of the office of experiment
stations. and G. X. Holmes, statistical
expert of the Department of Agricul-
ture
Doctor True advocated the Govern
ment employment of travelling profess
0rs for the benefit of farmers insti-
tutes. and advised instructions in ma
ture. especially in rural schools. as
preparation for agricultural instruc-
ton. The movement for agricultural
education in the United States, he
said, is only part of a worldwide
movement. including Egypt and Tur-
key.
He pointed out that all this meant
competition for the trade of the
world.
Mr.. Holmes submitted detailed sta
tistics and showed the average per
capita earnings of farm labOrers was
S227. without board, against 1927 paid
to persons in domestic service, $427 to
miners and $445 in the mechanical
arts. He considered the farm labOrer
as wretchedly poor, while the farm
owner was but little better. The farm
er receives an average of only $22.61
per month, counting nothing for inter,
est. according to his estimate He
urged the commission to remember the
AGRICULTURAL trusts in their recOmmen-
dations. citing numerous fruit assOcia-
tons. milk producers associations, and
said an existing tendency toward or
ganization among cotton growers, if it
took definite shape, would be the most
gigantic trust in the world. He thought
farmers cooperative concerns should
be under State supervision to safe
guard the members.

The eggs are laid early in the season

from the ground and the bOrer matches

green will be good thing to use early
in the season, and as the vines begin
to grow hoe the soil over the crown
where the vines come from the ground.
AS the vines make growth cover every
second joint with soil to the depth of
two inches and roots will strike into
the soil almost at once, adding vigOr
to the vine, even keeping it growing

into it, If the vines begin to drOOp,
split open with a sharp, thin knife,
and find the bOrer and kill it. Then
cover with soil and it will usually re-

Cabbage worms are certain to be
with us, and they should not create
much alarm. Take common Persian
insect powder, being sure to get that
which is fresh, and put it into a COM

that, pepper box with a perforated
top, and early in the morning sprinkle
a little of the powder over the inside
of the leaves on the worms that are
at work. In five minutes every worm
that is touched will be dead, and a
few such treatments are all that is
necessary in a season. The insect pow
der is not poisonous to anything but
insects and may be used with safety.

Garden Enemies and How to Destroy
Them


Farmers Voice says that during re-
cent years the insect enemeS of gar
den crops have become much more
numerous than formerly, largely on
account of the ravages of imported
varieties which seem to thrive in their
new environment, and this makes the
knowledge of how to meet these new
enemies absolutely necessary to sue
cess. ''The best way to begin is to
give the various garden crops the best
possible chance by providing good soil,
proper plant food and cultivation that
they may grow up vigorous and better
able to resist destruction from insect
pests Without these the crop will not
be worth the trouble of preventing at
tack from these destroyers After
these come watchfulness and prompt
attention to remedial measures. There
is hardly an insect pest but can be
destroyed with little trouble if taken
when it first puts in an appearance"
The following gives the principal
pests and the means of destroying
them:
"CutWOrms are hard to catch, as
they keep hidden during the day. Usu-
ally they do but little damage if the
garden is plowed very early in the
spring and allowed to freeze and thaw
few times. A good way to kill them
is to sprinkle Paris green on slices of
potatoes and lay these pieces near
freshly set out plants.
"Paris green also kills potato bugs in
very short time. Most people use
the mixture too strong. Two ounces to
fifty gallons of water is effectual if the
mixture is kept constantly stirred
Striped cucumber bugs are about the
hardest we have to deal with. They
come in a night and destroy the vines
in a day. Usually they send a scat,
tering advance guard, which should be
warning, for thousands are certain
to follow. Mix five pounds Of airslak-
ed lime and a quarter of an ounce of
Paris green very thoroughly and dust
the leaves with this while the dew is
on in the morning. Do this before the
bugs come, and repeat occasionally
until danger is past, which will be the
last of June usually, although some
times they come later. Do not leave
any clods around the hills Make the
surface smooth, so there will be no

Growing Strawberries in Frames.

under consideration l wish to describe
an experiment made during the past
season which may be of interest to the
society
The object in view was to hasten the
maturity of fruit by protecting the
early blooms from the freeze which sc
commonly ruins them in December OF
January. For this purpose structure
was built which | called a strawberry
frame. Double walls were built by
driving two rows Of stakes into the
ground about four feet apart and nail
ing to them rough boards II feet III
length until a height of four feet was
reached. the distance between the
rows being two feet This frame was
built in the form of a square, each
side of which was II feet in length
with double walls two feet apart aud
the corners pointing to the four points
of me compass, north, south, east and
west, so that each side was subjected
to the direct rays of the sun during a
portion of the day. These walls both
inside and outside were perforated
with twO-inch auger holes seven inch
es apart. The space between the in
ner and outer walls was filled With
soil mixed with compost and made
rich with chemical fertilizers. Three
inch drain tile we're placed on end at
distances three feet apart as the eaTril
was filled in, one tile being placed end
to end on top or another as the space
was filled. The bottom tile was filled
the easy passage of water through the
same so that these tile, when fill "a
with water, became reservoirs Of
moisture which percolated slowly into
the surrounding soil, keeping the same
constantly moist. Strawberry plants
were then set in the auger holes
drought the wooden walls. An open
ing was left at the northern apex Of
the frame to allow passage to the in,
terror of the same. The structure thus
described accommodated about 600
plants which took root easily, grew
thriftily and yielded bOuntifully.
AS matter Of comparison plants
of the same varieties were transplant
ed the same day and with essentially
the same treatment into a bed with
Slated covering and one adjoining in
the OPEN The result was that the
plants on the frame grew more rap
idly and blOOmed earlier than in eth
Ell of the other cases. The first fruit
was picked from the frame on Feb.
18th, fully three weeks earlier than
could have been possible in the open
field and probably two weeks earlier
than would have been the case under
shade. The actual final comparison
was, of course, spoiled by the freeze
of Feb 18th, which ruined all blooms
and fruit although the plants them
selves in each case escaped.
-Four advantages, it seems to me, are
presented by this method of strawber
~ protection.

quires some little expenditure, all sub
