New Sport With Cottontails.

a sport that is becoming very pop
ular where the cottontails abound is
that Of shooting them by the light of
automobiles after dark. A friend who
has bagyed a good many Dummies in
this way switches his headlights from
side to side as he proceeds along the
country highway. This usually causes
the rabbits that may be feeding along
or just inside of the fence rows to
make for the road, where they become
bcwildered by the bright light and fall
easy victims to wen Il fair shot.

WATCH FOR SAN JOSE SCALE.
Look Out For This Pest In Apple Or
chard-Use the Spray.

1t is we'll for those having apple
orchards in sections which have not
as yet been infested by the San Jose
scale to keep a sharp lookout for the
pest. Its presence is indicated on the
bark Of limbs and trunks OF trees by
minute grayish scales, which serve III
the aggregate to give it Il somewhat
rough surface. The presence OF the
scale on fruit is plainly shown in small
purple spots with a grayish center, and
this is particularly true where the
ripe fruit is either green or yellow in
color. The spray that is universally
used in keeping this scale pest i'll
check is a concentrated solution of
l%ime-sulphur applied while the tree is
in a dormant condition. In sections
where the aphis bothers, the spraying
is usually done in the spring just be-
fore the buds start.
