TO KILL TENT CATERPILLARs
Single Spray Of Arsenate Of Lead
When Insects Are Observed
Would Stop Depredatlons.

II a grower is spraying his fruit
trees faithfully with arsenate Of Lead
from tent caterpillars. or the tents
may be crushed with the gloved hand.
when they a be reached, at a time
when the caterpillars are inside; or
burned by a torch on the end Of a pole,
twisted out Of their place by means OF
a wire brush. attached to the end Of a
long pole. these remedies are effect
ual only when the caterpillars are in
their tents, early In the morning. or
in stormy wet weather. A single
spraying Of arsenate Of lead, when
caterpillars are observed. would prob
ably stop their depredations.
The forest tent caterpillars can be
destroyed when they collect In bunch
es on the trunks of trees. Prune of
and destroy the twigs holding the

remarkably during the last quarter OF

of education, which is materially al

person who will hold the reins OF

The shape Of the head is Of greater
importance than its size, and the S

the ears and forward. with a broad.

Heads that succeed in educational

eight or more feet in height with such
an outfit. Grape vines can be sprayed
very we'll with a bucket pump, pro-
vided there are not many Of them. II
there are many vines to spray a KNAPP
sack sprayer may be best. This Is q
very convenient outfit for spraying
tobacco, potatoes and other low
growing plants, which from the man
ner of their cultivation, 1t is not prac-
ticable to go among with a team and
wagon.
For extensive spraying, It Is well
to secure a strong pump attached to
a barrel or tank that can be hauled
about in a cart or wagon. Hand
pumps SO attached are used for small
orchards and other plants grown IN
a moderate way, but power pumps are
necessary for extensive spraying and
for that required by tall trees.
A man engaged in fruit growing or
potato growing, as a business, ought
to have a power sprayer Of some sort,
either operated by the wheel Of the
vehicle carrying the outfit. as in the
compassionate sprayers, or by a gas
oline motor.
A general purpose spray pump
should be made of brass SO that 1t
Will not be corroded by the copper
sulphate used in bordeaux mixture
Nozzles, too, should be made OF brass
and ought to be constructed SO that
they can be quickly cleaned Of solld
particles that may lodge in the outlet
The pump will last longer and give
better service IL washed out with clear
water whenever done using them.
Hose should be Of the best. Fol
trees it is we'll to have a sufficien
length SO that the nozzle can be ele
waited on the end OF a pole among thu
branches. The precise length will de
pend upon the size OF the trees. Fol
orchard work a length of 10 to Il
feet will serve when the pump !
operated from g wagon bed. Fol
shade trees Of large size 1t may b.
necessary to have so feet or more
The hose ought always to be detached
drained and hung up in a cool plac'
after using. A cellar is as good
place as any that Is commonly avail
able.

GOOD RESULT OF SUGGESTION

Richard Mansfield told me that
when he was a lad in London he often

The boyhood notion gave him the Idea
of putting those lines In his play,

This idea of suggestion has done
many a good deed. About ninety

OF allaying it-and pumped a lineup

way Of getting rid Of a small patch OF
Canada thistles is to go owe it every
week and cut off all leaves below the
surface Of the ground. II a c%onscien-
tious job of this is done for the sum-
mer, the thisties will not bother much
the next year, although 1t Is best to
keep an eye open for them and cut
them of regularly. A careful job
must be done, for If the leaves m
allowed to grow very long in the sun
shine enough energy will be stored up
in the roots to hold the pest over fer

Breeding Draft Horses.

The breeding Of heavy draft horses
is one of the most profitable branches
OF live stock farming. Few farmers
realize the Importance of size In a
draft horse, when put on the market,
either in public or private sale. a
horse that weighs less than 1900
pounds is not considered a draft
horse In any Of the horse markets of
the country. yet tho mares kept on
the ordinary farms are usually light
er than that. This accounts for the
small, scrubby lot Of horses that are
constantly being put on the market
at q loss to the breeder.
