Chicks.

In case of digestive disorders the
treatment of the drinking water may
aid in the suppression Of the trouble.
An effective method is by the use of
potassium permanganate. A satu-
rated solution is obtained by keeping
lie p~ermanganate crystals in the
ottom of some receptacle, covered
with water. One tablespoonful of the
5aturated solution is sufficient for
two gallons Of drinking water.
In case of colds, treat the drinking
water in this manner, and II the nos
trils and eyes run battle with the sat
urated solution.

Striped Cucumber Beetle (Enlarged)

The beetle may also be controlled
by covering the plants with cheese
cloth. Or the plants may be kept
sprayed with ~arsenate and Bordeaux
mixture. While this does not kill the
beetle, 1t seems to be distasteful to
the insect and furnishes protection
to some extent. Cultivation which
raises a dust, or lime and ashes
sprinkled on the bugs tend to stop up
the breathing pores and kill many
of them.
