ERADICATION OF CHiNCH BUGS
Arkansas Farmers Are Advised How
to Destroy the Pests.

Arkansas Farmers Are Advised How
to Destroy the Pests.
Farmers in Arkansas are suffering
from inroads in their cornfelds OF
chinch bugs. Commissioner of Agricul-
ture Page has given the following in
structions for destroying the pest:
Infested grass lands and stubble
should be burned over, and all rubbish
under which the bugs might hide should
be destroyed in the same way. They
may be DESTROYED while migrating from
one field to the other by tar barrels Or
deep burrows and by being buried I'M
der the ground by means of plows and
harrOws. A narrow strip of grass may
be Sown around cornfieldS and turned
under as soon as badly infested with
the bugs. In cornfields they may
readily be destroyed by spraying with
kerosene emulsion made according to
the following direc tons:
"Any good bar soap Shaved fine>.
one-half pound.
Soft water, one gallon.
kerosene, two gallons.
"Dissolye the soap in the water,
which should be hot: then remove
from the fire, add the kerosene and
ing the nozzle into the container, con-
tinuing the churning until the mate
rial gets thick and goes through the
pump hard This is stock material.
"Now take one part Of the stock ma
terial and mix with five parts of wa
ter and you have the kerosene emul-
sion for use in the field.
''Chinch bugs and grasshoppers at
about this season of the year some
times enter the cornfelds in great
hordes and destroy the crop. If the
work is done in time they may be
trapped successfully as they are about
to enter the corn. A strip of ten feet
or more wide should be plowed. disked
and narrowed into a dusty condition.
Through this strip one or more
dusty burrows or bitches should be
made by dragging a log back and
forth. If we'll made the dusty sides
of the ditch will prevent the bugs
from escaping. and the digging of
holes at intervals in the ditch will
cause them to be caught in large guam
titles in the holes. They may then be
killed by pouring kerosene on them.
Should a rain interfere with the pres
ervation of the dusty trenches strip
of coal tar can be substituted to keep
the bugs from entering the corn
"This remedy is to be used in cases
where the work has not been done be
fore the chinch bugs have started thei,
ravages. After that use the remedy
named at first. Rotation of crops Is
of little value in fighting chinch bugs
because they attack so many of on:
staple crops"

KEEPING GARDENS CLEAN.
Loss Of Late Growing Vegetables En-,
sues if Patches Are Neglected

Loss OF Late Growing Vegetables En-
sues if Patches Are Neglected.
When the first radishes. lettuce, peas
and beans have been taken from the
farm garden a good many peoplesseem
TO lose much of their interest in it,
In many instances too much land is
used rs a garden spot and it takes
hi Of unnecessary time to keep the
leeds down on it.
SO as soon us the first gardening
enthusiasm is over in the spring the
plants are neglected and the weeds
are permitted to riot wherever they
will. Some gardens begin to look like
iuNuriant weed patches by the lst of
July. The rows aud beds are swallow
ed up by the army of weeds that have
oyerrun the rich soil.
This means an actual loss of late
growing vegetables. Where tomatoes
are being grown they will be rotted
by the dampneSs and heat of the close
vegetation. the weeds and the rank
grasses. They cannot ripen properly
for lack of the sunlight that is needed
for that purpose.
Where cucumbers. sweet corn. late
beans. beets or any one Of dozen
other vegetable have been put out the
neglected garden filled with weeds
ruins any chances they may have for
good production. The pIow, the weed
er and the hoe should be kept going

garden is not kept clean and its soil
is not stirred the work of spring and
early summer is pretty well wasted

though. we lose most of our interest in
the garden shortly after the LIST of
July and let few million weed seeds
rlpen and fall to the ground where
they will plague us next season
The watering. mulching and even
planting should be kept up through all
of July and most OF August. Fresh
vegetables are fully as palatabe in
August and September as they are in
May and June. Keep the rake and the
watering pot handy in July after the
weeds have been cleared away with a
good sharp hoe.
Some weed seeds ripen very early in
the season. Because Of this it is in
advisable to let the whole crop Of
weeds go till later in the summer and
then NOW or chop them down. You
will, of course, get rid of most of the
weed seed crop by doing this. but
there will be a good many weeds
whose seeds have already ripened and

One of the advantages of swine hus-

The difference in the leading breeds
Of hogs is small and principally in de-

Good sheep require more care to

Hogs should always have yard Of

A successful swine breeder needs to

value of sanitation: also an intimate
knowledge of all the requirements Of
