A Destroyer.

Bisulphide of carbon will destroy all
animal life. If a small quantity is
poured into ant holes, or even into rat
holes. it will prove the best remedy that
can be used. 1t is excellent to use on
plants when they are young in order to
destroy insects, provided the plants are
covered for a short time. There is moth
ing better for driving rats away if its use
is persisted in The difficulty 10 the
use of bisulphide of carbon is in having
it reach into wheat bins and other places
where insects are established. The lat
est suggestion is to insert piece of gas
pipe, or any kind Of tubing, into the
centre of the bin, pour the liquid into
the pipe, insert stopper, and allow it
to remain closed for forty-eight hours
Although very volatile the gas evolved
is heavier than air and sinks.

Storing the Hay,

1t is a very desirable thing to be able
to haul all the hay into the barn the
same day it is cut The worriment and
anxiety consequent upon the liability
Of st rm before morning are thus
avoided. and experience has taught that
hay having no more than three or four
hours sun will come out in the spring
perfectly sweet and in fine condition for
tho cattle In adopting this plan it is
well to keep the hay constantly stirred
with tedder There has long been a
fear Of putting hay into the barn that
contains q noticeable amount of water,
but il it is properly packed by being
evenly distributed over the NOW each
forkful trodden upon and the barn kept
closed as much as possible the result
will probably be very gratifying.

Should Not Be Scared.

In handling poultry one should be
careful not to brighten them, as every
fright deranges their nerves and decreas-
es the profit that may be expected from
them. All common kinds of poultry
suffer greatly from fright This is
something that many are ignorant of
Children often Brighten poultry just
for the fun Of seeing them get scared
Their elders should teach them the bad
results that may be expected Dogs,
too, sometimes play with poultry much
to the annoyance Of the latter
Even adults sometimes take pleasure
in annoying defenOeless poultry, because
it may be done without danger to them
selves. Such adults should remember
that they might just as we'll put their
hand into the pockets of the owner of
the chickens and take out money.

Growing Horseradish from Sets.


While it is true that horsoradish sets
as ordinarily used are from A to 6 inches
long, experiments at the Cornell station
show that it is possible to grow large
and symmetrical roots from sets only 1
inch long. 1t is also true that sets IL
inches long are sometimes used. What

earth.
Good results can be secured by plant
ing the sets either vertical or slanting
In some parts of Europe they are al
ways planted slanting, the top end be
ing an inch deep, and the lower end {
or A inches deep. During the summer
each plant is uncovered and all th,
small side roots are rubbed of with
wooden cloth. If any large roots hav,
to be removed they are cut of and thu
wounds covered with powdered char
coal to prevent decay. After this oper
alton the soil is replaced about thu
plants, which are then allowed to grow
undisturbed until the end of the season
Where this method Of culture is prac
ticed, it is customary to use sets 1:

America, horseradish roots are neither
uncovered nor pruned during growth

PLAN OF COUNCIL ORGANIZATION

President Fortune Eormulates ii on
the Eve Of Leaving the cou~try.
To the Officers and Members q the
; & MI National Afro-American Cou~cil:
As ! shall leave the United Sizes
shortly for the far East, to be abse<%t,
perhaps six months. my last thought
in doing SO is the Afro American Coui-
Gil and it's future well being, as the
one organization OF the race whose
primal object is the preservation and
proper defense Of the civil apd political
rights of the Afro-American people.
My best thought, sympathy and effort
have been devoted, during the past
twelve years;-dating from the organ
ization of the National 'Afro-American
League, at Chicago, January Is, 1890, -
to the paramount necessity of effective
race organization for mutual protection
and defense of civil rights and mutual
interests. Effective organization is
the only supreme power in modern
society,". The greatest misfortune of
the race has been it's refusal to recog
nize and live up to this principle of
social security and progress. We%have
depended too much upon others to
do for us what we could and should do
for ourselves. Mankind is selfish by
nature and the enforced conditions of

neglect their own interests will find
to their sorrow, that others are too
busy to: attend to them for them.
What is erybody's business is no
body's business, is faithful old saw.
The main difficulty with and draw
back to the National Afro-Amer1cal
Council today is that it has no sub
stantial basic organization. The pass-
es of the people do not belong to 1t
or support it with their sympathy and
money. It's annual conventions are
composed of fraternal delegates and
delegates representing business and
professional interests, who are willing
to pay IS for participation in the delib-
