The systematic efforts made last sum-
mer and to be continued this season In
various communities to Danish the mos
quito carry a lesson Of useful sugges-
ton to the individual householder. Ev-
cry village or farm dweller has 1t in his
power to protect his premises. If not en-
tirely, at least in q large degree, from
mosquitoes. He has only TO see that
any stagnant water about the place in
pools or barrels is first drained Off If
possible, or If not then covered on the
surface with crude oil. One woman
found that by sprinkling the small
patch of lawn about her suburban cot
tage occasionally with Kerosene a
marked lessening Of the number of the
insects was noticed. Now that scien-
lists are certain that mosquitoes spread
malaria and In the south yellow fever
everybody should feel a responsibility
to help In their determination.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
The Grasa CrOD.

The cool weather Of April and May
has caused the grass to grow slowly,
and II has made thick growth ne the
bottom rather than rank growth. As
n result many are prophesying heavy
hay crop. good pasturage and plenti-
full supply OF milk and milk products.
We hope they will not be disappointed,
but It is we'll to remember that many
grass fields were severely injured by
the drought Of last year, and even copi-
Gus spring rains cannot restore life to
dead roots. Such fields Will produce
but light crops, and those Will not be or
the better quality Of hay. The coarse
and comparatively innutritlous grasses
will live, while many Of the better va
rIetles will have disappeared or Will
make but n scanty and feeble growth.
Again, so much surplus moisture In the
first four months Of the year Is very
likely to be- followed by dry season
later on. The total rainfall in year
varies but little from one year To an
other, and wet spring usually Is Il
forerunner Of dry summer and fan.
II this proves true this year, we cannot
hope for heavy second crop upon tie
moving lands and may find pastures
furnishing but little late feed. The
farmer who Is not in haste 10 clean ont
all the old hay I'm his barns or the ones
who provide forage crops to help the
cattle when they do not get enough IN
the pasture will be the lucky ones.

EnrIY Garden Vegetables.

There was a time when the gardener
who had his produce ready for the mar
ket earlier than his less enterprIslng
neighbor was well repaid for his care
and trouble by better prices for the
products. Then the early bird caught
the wealthy consumer. Now the early
worm In the northern states finds his
profits II not himself picked up by
those In a southern climate, who can
plant, grow and put on the market n
crop before the plow can penetrate the
frozen soil Of the northern states. We
are inclined TO think the chance for
profit today for market gardeners In
the north, says American Cultlyator, Is
In growing such crops as Will not ma
ture until southern produce no longer
fills our markets and perhaps in put
ting that In cold storage that 1t may
not be brought out until there are indi-
cations that II IS much wanted by those
who are willing TO pay liberal prices
for II. Let early crops pass by and
strive to grow crops Of such quality as
will suit even those who have been
using the earlier products Of the south
which are not Improved by long trans
DOrtatlOn.
