Castor Beans and MoIcs.
(Edgefeld ChrOn;clc.)


All of our lives we were tolG that
castor beans, called Palma Christi
commonly, would drive moles away
from the land. We never had faith
enough to make the experiments: but
two years ago, without stall having
any faith in it, we planted a good
many of the seed because the moles
were about to ruin our garden, which
was over-run or Il over with them.
Last year we did not notice much
difference in their number, Blu: this
year, there has not appeared one
sign Of a mole anywhere in the gar
den. We are giving results and not
a guarantee hat the castor bean will
drive off molcs. We planted It for
The purpose, and the moles have dis
appeared. Let others speak who have
had more experience than we have,
because we really desire to know if
the remedy is as cffectnal as il would
appear from Il efforts of the past
two years.
