HOW To OVERCOME
The CABBAGE APHIS

The following bulletin has been
issued by the Agricultural Ex-
pertinent station at Mesilla Park
''The cabbage aphis or louise is
one of the worst pests the grower
of this crop has to contend with
in New Mexico. The aphis is a
sucking insect and must be COM
bated with a constant spray. 1t
is Of a blush gray color, of an
oval shape, being a little larger
than the head of a common pin.
They make their appearance in
early summer on the plant, and
are usually found on the under
surface of the leaves, Their
presence on the plant may be
easily detected by the edge of the
leaf curling up.
''The aphides live in colonies,
and multiply very rapidly. Un-
less checked they soon spread
over the entire plant and either
kill it or cause it to head very
poorly.
Remedies. There are quite a
number of remedies recommend
ed for use against the aphis. The
horticultural department Of the
. New Mexico Experiment station
has used several of these reme-
dies, and found some of them to
be both practical and effective.
They are made and used as fol-
lows:
mo. l. Kerosene Emulsion.
Dissolve one-half pound of laun-
dry soap in QUE gallon of hot
water. Then add, away from
the fire. two gallons of kerosene.
Churn this mixture until white
and of the consistency of cream.
After the oil and soap have been
thoroughly emulsified, add 25
gallons of water, and apply as a
spray or with a stiff paint brush
or swab. 1t is important that
the mixture be thoroughly emul-
sified. On indication of injury
to plant, dilute the emulsion with
more water.
mo. 2. Whale Oil Soap. Dis
solve 2 1-2 ounces in one gallon
Of hot water, and apply while
still warm, as a spray or with a
stiff paint brush OF swab.
mo. 8. Tobacco water is fire.
quently used as a remedy for
plant lice. Boil for one-half
hour one pound of tobacco dust
or stems in one gallon of water,
and use as a spray or wash with
''No. A. Tobacco dust is also
quite effective for combating
cabbage lice. This dust is ap-
piled with a bellows blower, or
may be shaken on the plant with
a pepper box. The blower gives
the better results of the two, as
it puts the material on with more
force.
In using any of these remedies
promptness and thoroughness il
applying will count great deal.
| On the first appearance of the
insect the remedies should be
used, and applied a second time,
if necessary.

PRESIDENT HAS LOST GROUND
Veto Of the Wool Tariff Bill Likely
to Convince Nation That Chief
Executive 10 4 Wobbler.

In vetoing the wool tariff BILL Pres
ident Taft has disappointed large
element OF people who had hoped for
wiser and better action. Moreover. he
has taken course inevitably tending
to arouse suspicion that. after all, hts
sympathies are with and for the in
terests.
The arguments against the bill have
been the allegation that its principles
and provisions we're not scientific"
and that action on the matter should
have been delayed till the tariff COM
mission could report.
No such pretensions were set up
when congress was increasing the
burdens Of the tariff No Republican
lapdoodle then !. about Scientific"
principles and provisions. No demand
for delay till some commission should
offer its report. The Aldrich-Payn
monstrosity was pushed through con-
gress regardless of protests Tariff
grafters demanded more graft, and
they got It.
Mr.. Taft made many friends by his
course In the contest for reciprocity
with Canada. He almost convinced
the country that he was sincere
friend of fair tariff schedules as dis
tinguished from a robber tariff.
His veto OF the wool schedule indi.

important matters. Mr.. Taft is wob-

KEEPING SHEEP AT PASTURE
Animals Should Have Free Access to
Water at All Times--Pine Tar.
10 Excellent Fly Cure.

Sheep do not require as much water
as cattle, but they should have access
10 water when they do want 1t. When
the weather is dry and the nights
cloudy, when no dew falls, they may
suffer IL not watered. If there is no
stream Of water in the pasture the
f}ock should be driven to water once
daily.
The fly will make its appearance in
midsummer. The fly aims to deposit
its eggs within or close to the nostrils
of the sheep. This Is accompanied by
no pain to the sheep; the eggs hatch
In few weeks and the little worm
ascends the nostrils making the poor
animal almost wild with nervous dis
tress.
The best remedy is little pine tar
smeared on the nose. It should be
frequently applied. By pouring lit
tie tar in the feed troughs and sprin-
king it over with fine salt and wheat
bran the sheep will coat their own
noses This is good way where the
flock is large.
