THE SAN JOSE SCALE
LIME SULPHUR SPRAY ADVISED
HOW TO MAKE 1T.
BY Prot. w. H. Chandler, Of the Col.
Iege of Agriculture, Uni
versity of Missouri.

A very serious pest on the apple
trees in Missouri is the San Jose
scale. If left untreated this insect
will eventually kill the trees. How
ever it is not difficult to control it
by the use of various spray mixtures.
Prof w. H. Chandler of the College of
Agriculture, University of Missouri.
gives the following directions for COM
batting the insect:
The San Jose scale inserts its beak
into the bark of the tree and excreates
a scale. covering its body. It multi
plies rapidly and may completely
cover the bark of the limbs in places.
When the limbs become encrusted
with them the tree is likely to die.
As these are sucking insects, they
may be treated successfully with
either the miscible oils or the boiled
lime.sulphur wash. The kerosene
emulsion is one OF the commonest OF
the miscible oils. A number Of COM
mercial oils are manufactured which
are also satisfactory. The lime-sui
phur wash is made as follows:

would also be stimulated, since there
is a real need of clean, sanitary stock
yards where farmers can bring their
surplus stock hogs, that are unfit for
shipment to large markets, but are
needed by other farmers of that COM
munity who would readily buy, if it
We're safe to take pigs to their farms
from the stock yards.
The maintenance of clean stock
yards would lessen to considerable
extent the need of the thorough dis
infection of the stock cars.
The cars in which swine are shipped
should, under present conditions. be
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected be-
fore they are returned to the country
districts-they are otherwise a means
of spreading infection, through the lit
ter that falls from the cars en- route,
or is thrown out at the end station.
The tagging of cars that are known
to contain infected-hogs should be re.
quired, to call attention to the neces-
sity for thorough dsinfection, before
other hogs are shipped in same car.

massed about the borders of the
grounds or in the rear. Occasional
low masses OF them may be placed at
the angles of drives and walks.
Vines frequently may be used o7er
porches to keep out the hot sun, or,
as previously suggested, to screen
away back fences or unsightly objects
For roadways there are probably no
better shade trees than the native
elm, sugar maple, or oak. Native
species are already acclimatized and
at home, hence they grow we'll. They
are in keeping with our natural sur
roundings.
Among our native shrubs, the dog.

Of hawthorn or thorn tree, silver
bells, buckbush, red bud, elderberry
or sumach are good. Aside from
these native shrubs. If desired, one
may employ the oldtime lilac, snow.
balls, syringa, spirea, weigela OF
hydrangea.
Among native vines, the trumpet

er, and even wild grapes may be used.
If small Towering plants are used,
1t is better to plant them at the outer
edge of sheltered borders than to put
them in isolated beds. The peony,
iris, lilies and hyacinths are desirable,
and require little care
One may add to such home plants
year by year by bringing in handsome
plants from the wild. When one once
begins looking for ornamental plants
In the woods or along creek banks, it
Is surprising how many beautiful
species are brought to our notice.
Planted out about the home where
they are removed from their strug.

ded beauty so that we would hardly
recognize them as wild plants Not
intreHnentlv visitor will ask, What
beautiful shrub is this" without
recognizing it as wild species which
ne has tramped over in the woods all
his life.
All this puts us more in love with
the home. 1t gives us a greater pride
in living, and it thereby makes farm
life worth living 1t furthermore
brings us into better understanding
of and love for our native plants and
enriches our capacity for enjoyment

PREVENTING HOG INFECTION
USE OF SERUM MUST BE SUPPLE
MENTED BY OTHER MEASURES.
DR.. J. w. ConnoWay. Professor Of
Veterinary Science, University
Of Missouri.

The results of our rather extensive
work with the 'immunizing serum
for hog cholera justify us in the be
lief that it is destined to play an i'm
portant part in the eradication of the
disease. However, the use of the
serum must be supplemented by other
measures in which every hog raiser
and shipper has a part.
We should confidently expect that at
no very distant time the large and
small stock yards will be kept free
from cholera infection, SO that stock
hogs may be purchased at said yards
at any season, for stocking up the
farms which have an abundance Of
feed but are short on hogs. At pres
ent the great stock yards are consid
cred to be permanently infected with
cholera, and hogs that enter are not
permitted to be shipped out, but are
sold for immediate slaughter, no mat.
ter how unfit they are in weight and
condition, for packing purposes.
Stock hogs can. however, he pur
chased i'll the interior of the state and
collected in the local stockyards of
the towns and villages and shipped to
distant parts of the state. These small
yards are scarcely less dangerous than
the large stock yards of the great
packing centers; and some of them
are, no doubt, more dangerous, as
they have dirt floors and have been
collecting cholera infection for many
years. In many Of these yards are a
menace to a farming community, as
points for distributing cholera infec.
ton.
The cost of paving these small yards |
with non-porous brick or rough con-
crete, and providing hydrants and |
hose so that they can be kept in a !
clean, sanitary condition, would not
be expensive. The saving to the far
ners In a season or two would more
han pay the cost. It would improve
he business of these yards and the
'ailroads to maintain sanitary stock
ards in the small towns, especially
n sections where many hogs are sold
v "stockers," to be shipped to other
ections where corn is the principal
rop, and where numbers of hogs
must be bought for feeding.
The local trade among farmers

be pruned from year to year so as to
allow them to take their own natural
form or habit. Ordinarily it is not
best to clip trees into low or compact
forms by annually clipping them back
or shearing the outer surface.
Most of the pruning should be done
i'll winter but when the wood is not
severely frozen. Dead or dying limbs
should be cut out at any time, how.
ever Where it is desired to secure
long trunks SO one may see out under
the trees, the lower limbs may be cut
out from year to year as the tree
reaches upward in height. Wherever
the limb is cut, however, it should be
cut close to the trunk of the tree so
the growing layer may easily close
over the wound. If even a short stub
