question that Is frequently asked OF
the experiment station, and one which
is very important just now, is what to
do for the root-maggot. This insect
attacks plants of the crucifera (mus-
tard) family, such as the cabbage, rad
ish, turnip and other closely related
forms-and even the wild forms, such
as the wild mustard. The maggot that
attacks the onion is not the same as
the one that works on the radish, but
is closely related specie.
A fly, quite like the house-fiy, laws
eggs that later become the root-mag-
got. The female fly might be mistaken
for the house-fiy, but close examina-
ton shows the abdomen to be longer
and thinner, and the wings when fold.
ed to be little longer than those of
the house-fy. The eggs laid at the root
of the plant attacked are small, long,
thin and white. They are easily found
by digging away the soil from the root
of the plant. The eggs will sometimes
be found an inch and a half below the
surface and often in great numbers
They require from two days to a week
to hatch. The small maggots crawl to
the roots and begin work. They some
times eat the root Off, and at other
times girdle it. This causes vigorous
looking plants to wither up and die.
There are two ways to control the
root-maggot: To prevent the fly from
laying the eggs around the plant, and
to kill the maggot after it is Matched.
The first, or preventive method, is
probably the best, but the latter may
prove of some value and a combination
of the two will probably be worked out.
Napthaline flakes repel the fly, and can
be scattered around the plant very
easily These flakes are quite insolu-
BILE, and an application scattered
around the root of the plant will last
for ten days or two weeks, depending
on the weather. They cost from II
cents to 20 cents a pound. A pound

:: ECONOMY HINTS IN CANNING FRUIT :;

On the farm there is question as to
economy or the desirability Of cannin.,
fruits and vegetables.
The grocer and the woman who has
no time for such things may tell yoI
| that you can buy them just as cheaply,
says writer in the Arlington Chro1-
icle, but don't you believe it. 1t can
not be done.
But says one woman, :'some of II ;
fruit does not keep, or at least are
lacking in color and flavor"
Here let me make a plea for the tin
can. If you will use tin cans for such
fruits as peaches, pears, apples, pine
apples and Strawberries, as well as to-
matoes, corn and beans, you will find
that they not only keep far better,
without so much sugar, but have a far
richer color, very superior flavor.
and there is no loss of the top layer
as is frequently the case in the use OF
glass.

with a tin lid that fits very closely in
to groove that must be dried and
filled with hot sealing wax. They re-
tail at 35 cents a dozen, and have a
capacity of one quart.
Buy good grade of tin cans. They
can be used over again if well washed
and dried as soon as emptied. Scour
slight discolorations, replace lids and
keep in dry place to prevent rust.
When the tin is eaten off discard the
can.
Use only the best of red sealing wax,
and as soon as the wax sets" run the
end of hot stove hook, or similar
piece of iron, heated very hot, over it.
in order to prevent any air holes from
forming. This is very importan,
part of the process.

fruit, cover with the boiling syrup,
dry the groove carefully, and seal at
once. If peaches are scalded a few
minutes the skins can be removed IKE
those of tomatoes. thus saving u.uch
time as well as fruit.
| cut pineapples into dice or circles,
cook them in little heavier syrup,
and can them like peaches.
Cut apples into quarters or less and
cook them quickly so they will burst
and be tender, and yet not sauce do
not add sugar. When they are opened
re-heat and sweeten them and they
will be found as good as fresh ones for
pies or desserts.
Do try tin for strawberries. Wash
the berries carefully and stem them.
Place three pints of fruit and one pint
OF sugar--no water-in a preserving
kettle. and set it on the back of the
range for several hours, when it will
have formed rich syrup. Place over
the fire, boil briskly few minutes and
can. They make delicious dessert and
are fine for winter short cake
If you are one of the few fortunates
who live on a farm where maple syrup
is made, do try canning it in tin. The
results will be such that you never
will use glass or jugs again. This need
not be emptied as soon as opened as it
contains no acid
Few people can keep tomatoes in
glass, and at the best they lack both
color and flavor and there is large
percentage of loss, whereas if canned
in tin there seldom is any loss. If a
white paper bag is used-No. lis
placed in the can and the cooked to-
matoes put into this they can often be
removed without tearing the bag, and
thus prevent discoloration o fthe can.
For many fruits l prefer glass jars
and use them successfully, but for
these | have mentioned | use tin with
excellent results.

EXPERT TELLS HOW TO KILL MACC0TS

Will treat continuous row of turnips
about $50 feet long. Crops from seed
should be treated before the fly be-
comes active. This is when the plants
are about an inch or less high.
! Tarred paper discs in the form of
| collars put around the plants at the
time of transplanting, will keep the fly
from laying the eggs around them.
me discs should be placed firmly
around the plant, and on the ground so
the fly cannot get under them. They
should be about two inches in diam
eter.
Plants that are grown in the seeded
to be transplanted should be grown in
rich, well worked soil, and should be
covered with cheese cloth. Twelve TO
20 meshes to the inch is quite heavy
enough. This costs very little and in
sures good plants to put in the field,
Any spray to kill the maggot must
necessarily be placed on the root
where the maggot must eat it. To do
this the soil must be pulled away from
the roots, and the spray applied, pre-.
ferably with pressure. This makes
such treatment rather expensive.
Any of the poison sprays such as paris
green or arsenate of lead, can be used
in this way. Care should be taken
with these sprays not to let the chill.
dren get at them, as they are very
poisonous. Dipping the plants to be
transplanted in a solution of arsenate
OF lead is highly recommended by
some. 1t should be used at the rate of
four pounds of the paste to so gallons
OF water when applied in this way. A
little of the solution will be sufficient
for large number of plants. Our ex-
periments with the poison sprays have
not gone far enough for use to make
any recommendations at this time
Any of the methods to control the
root-maggot requires time, patience ana
some money The station Is trying
out a great number of different treat.

have cheap and effective remedy.

which he keeps for tobacco and sun
dries. In her list OF expenses occurs
this item: ITO husband. four dol
lars" That is. out Of his wages
which she gets from him. she allows
him one dollar a month. That is
a mighty good idea-instead OF the
husband doing out pittances TO his
wife. allow her to take charge OF the
income and let her make such allow
