Spade or plow the garden as
early as possible in the spring and
work 1t over as many times as
possible. This will not only put
the soil in the best condition for
the growth of the plants, but it
will also kill most insects that live
in the ground during the winter
and early spring.
Plow the sod for corn early and
cultivate it as often as possible,
especially with therevolving blade
harrow. This will destroy many
cut.worms and grub worms. Do
not be in a hurry to plant on sod
ground.
Poison some bran with paris
green in water and molasses and
put it under boards or cover it
with soil in the garden for cut
worms, crichets, earth worms,
slugs, etc. The reason for cover.
ing it is to prevent desirble birds
and domestic fowls from eating
it.
Go over the young apple and
pear orchards and kill all bOrers
by either cutting them out or by
pushing sharpened wire as far
as possible into their holes. Their
presence may be detected by the
borings like fine powder around
the trunks of the trees near the
base.
Examine the peach trees, for
the peach tree borer, and wher-
ever masses of gum are seen de-
termine the cause. Kill the bor-
ers, either by cutting them out or
by piercing them with sharpen
ed wire.
Give the furs and winter cloth
ing a good airing and brushing in
the sunshine, and if there are
moths in them fumlgate in a tight
box or trunk with carbon bisul-
phide, or fumes of sulphur, or
gasolene in quantity. Then put
them with moth balls) into tight
paper or muslin bags or into box
es of wood or pasteboard and seal
the cracks with strips of gummed
paper. If bags and boxes are
made absolutely tight moth balls
are not needed, but they do no
harm and are not expensive. -
They may save hundreds of times
the amount of their cost.

this and are germicides as well
as insecticides.
Just as the buds on the apple
trees are bursting the minute
plant lice eggs on the smaller
twigs are batching by the thous-
ands and millions and are likely
to become very destructive. They
can best be killed by spraying as
soon as hatched with a mixture
of from ten TO fifteen per cent. OF
kerosene with water, using the
kind of a spraying apparatus that
mixes it in definite proportions at
