CONTROLLING THE BOIL WEEvIL.

Years of experience and careful study
have brought to light many facts in re-
gard to the life and habits of the boil
weevil. By taking advantage of some
of these, much can be done to lessen the
damage of this pest.
Read carefully all available bulletins
or publications concerning this insect
and verify the statements in these pub
locations for yourself. Make. observa-
tions as to which fields are most seri-
ously damaged by the boil weevil. land

ference upon fields i'll the same neigh
borhood. .tl
Test different varieties of cotton under
the same conditions so as to obtain the
variety that does best on your farm
under boil ,Weevil conditions. Carefully
observe the effects of early and late
planting. There are hundreds Of facts
concerning the boil weevil that each
farmer should find out for himself in
order. to more intelligently meet the
situation and to continue to raise cotton
on profitable basis.
The leading authorities upon the DOLL
weevil all agree that one of the most
important steps I'M the control of this
insect is the destroying of the stalks
early in the fall.
AS soon as the weevils become so
numerous that practically no more cot
ton will be produced, destroy the stalks
so as to kill many of the insects and to
cut off the food supply of the others.
Hasten the picking of the cotton, and
as soon as it is picked out destroy the
stalks. The earlier the stalks are de-
stroyed the fewer weevils will survive

There are many kinds of insects thai
poster the farmer and fruit grower and
all of them, taken together, may be df-
vided into two great groups dependant
upon the kind of mouth parts they have
and the manner in which they attack
plants. The. insects of one group have
jaws and bite off bits of plants and
swallow them. They are known as the
biting insects. The members of the Sec
ond group have a bill or sucking tube
which they insert into the tissues OF
plants and suck out the juices. These
are the sucking insects.
The grasshopper is a familiar example
of the first class of insects, for it has
biting mouth parts. composed of two
pairs of jaws, one of which is hard and
black and easily seen with the eye, With
these jaws the grasshopper. bits off pieces
of leaves, stems, etc, and swallows them
much as a COW or horse would do. Very
many insect pests have biting mouth
parts like the grasshopper and eat parts
of plants. For example the caterpillars
or worms" on cotton, tomatoes, cab
bage, ETC., the June bugs, fig eaters po-
known as the biting insects.
1t is plan that an insect that bites Of
pieces of leaves and swallows them
stands relatively high chance of being
killed by putting some poisonous sub
stance upon the leaves before they are
eaten. 1t is absolutely necessary tC
know what kind of an insect is causing
the injury-whether it is biting or suck,
ing insect. This is the first point to de-
termine.
Probably Paris green is one of the best
known poisons for biting insects. 1t is

DESTROYING. BITING INSECTS
Constant and Concerted Warfare Against Injurious Insects
and NoMouS Plant Diseases Is Necessary

Quick lime is added to prevent burning
of the foliage and the poison Is used In
the following proportions:
One pound of Paris green. 200 to 800 gal
Ions of water, pounds quick lime.
Stake this lime in little water and aod

then add the proper amount of water
for potatoes 200 gallons OF. wafer anu
for peaches 800 gallons.
Arsenate of lead is combination OF
arsenic and acetate of lead and is bet

White arsenic is cheap, easy to get;
and is not often adulterated. Therefore,
when it is combined with lime or sal
soda to prevent burning of the foliage,
II is most satisfactory insecticide.
1t may be prepared as follows:
1 pound white arsenic.
4 pounds quick lime,
4 gallons water.
Boil the lime and arsenic together IN
the water for half an hour and then
dilute with geo gallons of water for
spraying. cs 1 r-sFea era ~
Arsenate of lime may also be pre-
pared by boiling two pounds of white
arsenic and eight pounds Of sal soda in
two gallons of water for 15oor 20 min
utes, or until the arsenic and soda are
dissolved. This constitutes stock So
luton which may be kept in a sealed
jug for a long time. When ready to
spray, slack two pounds OF quick lime,
take one pint Of the stock solution and
mix them both with 40 gallons OF water.

QUEER IDEA ABOUT ROSE BUSHES

QUEEA IDEA A5OOG 4OS1 6SS66S
A correspondent asks if Manure will
harm rose bushes?" adding that one of
her neighbors told her that it would pre-
vent them from Towering.
We never heard of such a thing be-
fore It is a fact, however. that in some
parts of the country there are people
who still believe that manure will poi
son the soil for farm crops. and doubt
less this idea has spread to rose bushes.
Nothing was ever more absurd. Rose
bushes are tremendous feeders Of rich
soil and it should always be composed
of well-rotted manure besides additional
leaf mould and the entire soil should he
of the richest character.
. A heavy loan or clay and gravel, well
drained, are suitable soils for rose
bushes. A trench at least three feet
deep should be dug and filled with alter
nate layers of manure and compost and
well worked up before the roses are
planted. 7fI
After the plants have become well
started they should still receive manure
and this should be applied every spring
in liberal quantities.
Do not be afraid of giving your rose
bushes a soil too rich. The richer it
is the more vigorous will be the growth
of your plants and the more beautiful
will the color OF your flowers be.

Never make the mistake of feeding
commercial feed that contains ground
oyster shell to very young chicks. It
is all right to give to a full grown bird,
but it is death to youngsters as it causes
white diarrhoea of which they die in
three or four hours.
Many persons feed their fowls oats,
but we do not believe it is good thing
as it is likely to cause irritation in the
intestines. ~ --
If you have male bird that has proved
a good breeder do not discard him
until you are quite sure that his days
of usefulness are over-but keep watch
for that event.
The best prices for breeding birds are
obtained at the poultry shows. Begin
ners generally get the fever about that
time
Men who have lost money in the bust
ness say it costs fully Is cents per pound

is the cost of eggs, Matching and feed,

KEEP A POULTRY RECORD.

One of the greatest needs of most poul-
try keepers is definite record of ex-
penditures and receipts. In too few cases
does the owner of poultry flock actual
ly know whether his fowls have been
an expense to him or have paid a
profit. This is perhaps truer in regard to
poultry than with most other branches
of animal industry, because of the fact
that both expenditures and receipts are
spread over the entire year and are in
dividually small that large part of the
product is used at home, and that the
poultry keeping is incidental to the farm
work.-R. r. s.
