FIGHT AGAINST
INSECT NUISANCE
Never Failing Remedy Against
Aphis, Onion Thrips and
Cd her 3 u kina
Garden Peets.
Ry e. W. GRUsS.)

Kerosene emulsion is one of the
standard remedies in the combat
against insect pests. 1t is made by
boiling one pound of whale oil, or
caustic potash soap, or one quart of
soft soap In two gallons of soft water.
When the soap is dissolved pour the
solution into the sprayer, adding two
gallons OF kerosene. Then pump into
itself until the compound has the con-
sistency of buttermilk and its bulk has
increased to nearly five gallons. This
is the stock solution. For spraying d.
lutte two parts of the stock with 8 or
10 parts Of soft water ! cannot rec
ommend a stronger solution. This is
never falling remedy against the
aphis, onion thrips, and other sucking
insects. Biting insects, too, will sue
cumb II the spray touches them. For
best results the spraying must be re
peated four or five times in intervals
of five to seven days. It must not be
used on vegetables of which the leaves
are eaten.

CATS PERPLEX NEW YORK
Advocates Of determination Say He
roic Measures Are Necessary to
Avert Real Plague.

New York.-Whether New York
may intrust the disposal of its gar
bage to four-footed scavengers in the
shape of cats. corresponding way
to the dogs of Constantinople, is the
most striking possibility in the contro-
versy now raging as to whether cats
are a public necessity or a public
nuisance in this city demanding imme-
date recall.
According to the latest feline census
Il is estimated that there are 100000
cats In this city, as compared to $4,000
dogs, and in view of the rapidity with
which the former are increasing in
numbers 1t is now proposed either to
license or eXterminate them.
The proposal to license cats is at
tended with many difficulties and OBJ
jections. Aside from the difficulty of
catching a quarter OF a million strays
and establishing their ownership, one
expert holds that such step would be
on a par with licensing birds, white
mice or rabbits.
On the other hand, an expert of con
trary views paints shocking picture
OF cat-ridden city in the near future
II steps are not taken to eliminate
these animals.
According TO him, in the thickly
populated districts the cats are really
wild animals, attacking chiefly the
odoriferous garbage can. A recent in.
vestigation shows that these animals
come out only at night, so that to

EGG TESTER IS
QUITE USEFUL
with Very Little Time and Labor
and Practically No Ex pense
Handy Device Gam
Be Made,

When the farmer begins to save
eggs for Matching purposes, he natur-
ally wonders how many of them are
fertile and how many are worthless
for Matching. A great many make
the hen the tester. That is, they set
the eggs, and If they hatch they at
tribute 1t to good luck, and if they are
all sterile they charge the result to
bad luck and wonder why they cannot
have as pronounced success as their
neighbors.
With a very little time and labor
and practically no expense whatever
the farmer can make an egg tester
with which he can tell the fertile frou.
the infertile eggs. BY testing the eggs
before placing them under the hen ln'
the incubator, the farmer can increase.
the percentage Of eggs hatched--tG4
many cases this percentage can al
most be doubled.
To make the tester take a cracker
box and place in 1t an ordinary hard
lamp. In one side cut a small hGte
just the size of the egg when It is heEr5
with the large end up. Make this
opening about on a level with tire
lamp. It Is best to test them at night
IN dark room.
Perhaps the most pronounced indi-
cations of fertility of an egg is the
clearly defined air space at the largo
end OF the egg and a cloudy appeas-
ance. densest at the upper part of the

that means great deal in the mar

while their low stature makes cultiva-

The ground for Lima beans should
be plowed early, but not until the soil
is in good condition Beans SHOULD be
dropped in rows four feet apart every
eighteen inches and covered lightly.
Deep planting is fatal. If the weather

over the bean. 1t requires about one.
half bushel of seed per acre.
The Lima bean does not need fer.
tilizers containing nitrogen. because 1t
gets all II needs from the air, but
should have plenty of phosphorus
Fertilizers should be put on after the
plants are up and growing nicely.
The plants should be well hoed be
fore the vines commence to run, and
as soon as the ground dries off after
rain, they should be lightly hoed and
the surface kept loose.
1t is important to study the demand
of the market, because some con
sumers require the plump potato-bear
while others will have nothing but the
large. fiat variety.
When grown on a large scale, the
beans are sold in bags, and bring
from $3.50 to $500 per bag, the low
price being at the close of the season
