MAKING WAR UPON INSECTS
Often Found More Effective to Use
Mechanical Means Than That OF
Hand or of RepeIlents.

In the small garden, hand methods
of fighting insects are usually en-
ployed; and it is often found more
effective to protect the plant by me-
chanical means than to kill the insects.
Thus, cut worms may be prevented
from destroying newly transplanted
cabbages and tomatoes by wrapping a
piece of heavy paper around the stem
Of each plant at the time of transplant
ing. This method is fully as effective
as scattering poisoned bran mash
about the garden a day or two before
setting the plants. Likewise the
striped beetles which invariably attack
cucumbers, melons and squashes, can
be kept away from the plants by a Gov
ering of mosquito bar or cheese cloth
stretched over a light frame or bot
tomless box made for each hill. This
is a more effective method than is the
use of ~repellents, like turpentine or
crude carbolic acid, mixed with ashes
or land plaster, and is well adapted to
the small garden, where only a few
hills of the vine crops are grown.
When plants are attacked by any of
the larger insects, like tomato worms
or celery caterpillars, the quickest
way t o dispose of the insects is to
knock them off and crush them under
foot. Hand picking may also be. en-
ployed for destroying the eggs OF
squash bugs and potato beetles. For
some of the smaller leaf-eating insects.
it may be necessary to resort to the
use of spray materials. In the small
garden these can usually be applied
with sufficient thoroughness by the use
of a sprinkling can or an atomizer-

Usually the millet may be mown and
stacked early in September and the
field hurriedIy cultivated and sown to
rye, which will make excellent fall
pasturage at q time when it is most
needed.
The wheat or rye fields may be
utilized in the same manner. and be-
ing somewhat earlier, are better adapt
ed to growing double crops than the
oats stubble.
The potato patch may be made to
double it's profits by sowing it to mil
let, cane Or kafr corr after it has been
laid by. Sowing the ground to some
other product also yields the bene-
fetal influence of keeping down the
weed pests which always bob up after
you stop blowing the potato vines and
which, where unmolested, furnish mil
lions of seeds for p~ropagating a rank
and troublesome growth of weeds the
next season, besides helping to drain
the soil of its fertility.
Or if one will dig the potatoes from
the early patch they will bring a high
price at hat season. and the ground
may be sown again to rape for hog
pasture.
Late tomatoes, cabbages and turnips
also may be raised among the potato
vines as successfully as though they
occupied a plot by themselves.

fBv NJ. covERDELL.,

(By NJ. COvERDELL.>
While two crops q season on a piece
of ground will bring double profit,
there is, of course, a corresponding
double amount of vitality Slapped from
the soil, and the frequent application
of a good fertilizer is imperative, lest
the ground soon become thin and un
productive.
In the garden one may utilize for
second and even third crops the beds
in which early peas, beans. radishes
and lettuce were grown.
The same is true of the early sweet
corn. 1t is advisable not to plant the
same article twice in the same spot in
succession, but rotate the products the
same as in field rotation of crops.
A well prepared seed bed at each
planting is almost essential, and a
sprihkling of fine rich manure will
prove very beneficial to the growing
plants and in maintaining soil fertility.
Sow oats as early as possible in the
spring, NOW them for hay just a few
days in advance of the time they would
be reaped for the grain; remove them
from the field as soon as they are suf-
iciently cured, and stack well for fu-
ture feeding purposes
Then put as many teams in the field
as can be spared. Stir the ground
quickly and thoroughly. Immediately
sowing it to millet.

BENEFITS OF SWEET CLOVER
Valuable for FertiIizing Purposes and
Also for Feed-May Be Sown Al
most Any Time.

Sweet clover is a plant grown most
ly for fertilizer purposes, but it is val
liable also for feed. 1t is closely re-
lated to alfalfa because the same bac-
terra that work on the alfalfa roots
have their nodules on the sweet clover
roots.
Sweet clover may be sown any time
from April l to September Is. Pre-
pare the ground the same as for alfal-
ia and SOW ten to fifteen pounds per
acre. This plant will grow almost
anywhere, and on poor land, if left
for four or five years. the land will
grow a good crop of coru, as the sweet
clover will keep ~reseeding itself and
the roots and tops VIII cover the
ground two or three inches deep with
a good manure in that time. After the
first year it can be cut for hay, two
or three cuttings made in a season.

PLANTING for Future Seed.

Few farmers feel that they have
time to give to an elaborate corn-breed-
ing plot, but none of them is SO busy
that he can't take time to select the
best hundred ears in his supply OF
seed, and, after testing to be sure of
it's vitality, plant in a plot or the south
or west side of his main field.
Doing this will not only simplify the
matter of selecting the seed ears next
fall, but the location of the best and
most thrifty type of corn in the posi-
ton mentioned will mean that much
of the remainder of the field will be
fortified by the tassels on these bet
ter stalks.

HANDY DOOR FOR
THE CHICKEN RUN
Opening May Be Arranged to
Open and Close From Front
Without Entering House.
lBy M. E. s. HYMERsA

The small door opening on the
chicken run, and for the use of the
fowls only, may be arranged to open
and close from the front without the
necessity of going inside the house.
To make this possible, the door
should be put in so as to slide easily
up and down. Through the top of the
door fasten a strong wire terminating
with a weight; the wire running
straight up and ove a small pulley
which Is fastened in the ceiling direct
ly owe the door. The wire is then
carried across the ceiling and down
POSSIBLY over another pulley-depend-
ing on the height Of the ceiling), COM
ing out through a hole bored In the
front of the building hear the large
door, (or whatever is most conveniently
and where the end Is finished with a
wooden button.
To open the door, pull the wire out,
then down to the full length OF the
wire, and slip it under a couple of
nails farther down on the outside of
the building. To close it, remove the
button from its lower fastening and
allow it to slide back to the place of
exit, and the weight fastened over the
little door will carry it down to posi-.
ton.

KEEP THE W0oDCHUcK AWAY
Cotton Soaked in Bisulphid and
Placed in Hole is Good Way Of
Getting Rid of Rodents.

CBy F. L. wASHBURN, Minnesota Elk
pertinent Station.)
The woodchuck, or ground hog is
destructive to gardens in some
counties in this section that a few
remedial measures may be of interest.
White muslin strips may be tied to
the peayine supports about a foot
above the ground, at intervals of about
a foot in a row, to keep the animal
away. Cotton or oakum may be
wrapped around a stone soaked n
carbon bisulphid, and the mass rolled
into the hole as far as possible, In or
der that the fumes may have the full
est possible effect, close the hole as
tightly as possible. A good marksman
with a rifle, stationed where he can
secure a good view of the infested
field, may prove effective. Blasting
powder and a long fuse are sometimes
used and so is the steel trap.

In shading hives from the sun, vart
u methods have been advanced.
such as grape vines, sunf1owers, trees,
shade boards. ETC., each having its good
points.
Trees have n advantage over
everything else, inasmuch as they
shade the apiarist as well as the hives.
While this is SO, yet trees as a rule
are apt to give too dense a shade, and

servance that, so far as the bees are
concerned, they do much the best
right out in the rays of the sur the
whole year around, when the question
comes to dense shade or no shade at
all.
For this reason l prefer to have
shade where l can go once in a while
when becoming greatly heated and
use a shade board for each hive. let
ting them stand in the sun.
Where a person wishes to do away
with swarming entirely, he must
either divide his bees or work for ex.
tracted honey. Most persons having
outyards prefer the latter plan. l be-

the drones. The mother bee in the
busy time lays from three to four
thousand eggs a day; for this she has
her being. These eggs develop into
larvae, which the attendant bees feed
with bee bread, a mixture Of pollen
and honey, then when the larvae have
completed this stage Of thei- existence
these nurse bees seal them in their
waxen cells and leave them to develop
into the insect stage-the busy bee.
