ample. The food of sucking insects,
which include all the scale insects and
the plant lice, can not be poisoned by
spraying-Paris green and arsenate
of lead are useless III fighting San Jose
scale, woolly aphis, and the lice that
infest melons, apple trees and many
other useful plants. This group can
only be overcome by spraying with a
remedy that kills by contact with their
bodies, or serves as a repellant; hence
the use of kerosene emulsion, boiled
lime-sulphur solution, and BLACK Leaf

try. On the other hand, the apple
worm (coddling moth), curculio, pc.
tato bug, tomato worm and the great
group of biting insects, can be con-
trolled by spraying at the proper time
with some arsenical poison. Arsenate
of lead is the best of these prepare
tons, because it sticks better than
Paris green or London purple, and is
hence effective for a longer time.
In fighting the various diseases of
plants-mildew, fruit rot, blotch, scab,
etc.-the main principle involved is
the idea OF prevention-spraying with
q remedy, like self-boiled lime-sulphur
solution or Bordeaux mixture when the
fruit is first formed, and then at in
tervals OF not more than four weeks,
to destroy the disease when its germs
begin to grow. The germs OF the de-
structive fungi are SO very minute that
they can not be seen with the naked
eye, and the air is full of them. If the
plants are covered with the solution
when germ starts to grow on the
skin OF fruit, leaf, or branch, it's ten
der young parts are destroyed by con.
tact with the remedy. Several spray
ings are necessary, not only because
rain may wash off the first application,
but also because the growing tissues
expand, and the new parts must be
protected by repeated sprayings.
1t, is apparent, then, that the spray
pump must be frequently used>if the
crops are to be protected from their
enemies. ut is also apparent that many
kinds of crops can be protected by
spraying. Most people think of the
spray pump in connection with the
orchard and vineyard, but it has a
much wider use. Not only fruit and
vegetable crops can be protected by
the spraying machine, but wherever
insects or fungi threaten, there is use
for the spray pump.

The Split Skirts

i notice that all the pious old
hypocrites of the country are
loudly condemning the split skirts"
observed a brother editor, after
he had quit rubbering at a flash
of a green petticoat that fitted by
the window. Personally" he
said, the sight of a graceful
ankle is a morey pleasing sight
than the bustles and hoop skirt
the ladies once wore, and for the
life of me ! can't figure Tout why
the sight of lady's shank should
retard civilization. II The new
tangled skirts at !least don't. en-
croach on the street sweeper and

crobes and street sewerage that
tho long skirts the women used
to wear did. As near as | have
been able to figure it out, the
fashions in feminine clothes were
started in an imbecile asylum, and
it has only been in late years that
old Mr.. Commonsense has had
anything to do with them. De-
spite the knockers, none of whom,
incidentally, ever shut their eyes
at the "turrible" sight, | contend
that nothing as graceful and
pretty as feminine ankle was
ever meant to be covered up and
deprived of sunlight land ventila-

Medieval Teutons.

The Teutonic races, spurred for
ward by migrating hordes in the rear
and thrown backward by trained ar.
mics upon the Roman frontiers, were
compelled to bend the full force of
their tribal organizations to warfare.
Their youths were trained to a hardy,
active life. Their courage and spirit
were constantly fed by stories of ex-
pioits of the chase and the battlefield.
They were proud Of their stature and
strength and were full of boasting and
ferocity.-Engineering Magazine.

CLEANUP DAY.

By a proclamation Of the Com
missioner of Public Safety, Mayor
A lphe FOntelleu, acting in the ca
pacity of Health Officer under the
City Charter, designated Tuesday
of this week as the day for gen
eaal cleaning up Yesterday was
inspection day While we are go
ing to press before the esuIts are
known, we feel confident that a
marked Improvement III sanitary
conditions may be noted on every
hand and that this fair city is one
of the cleanest and sweetest
towns in the State.
1t is possible for this town to
attain a clean conditions, and to
remain clean, under the methods
prescribed by our charter. There
is all the law in the charter need
ed to effect that result And it
should be a matter Of great pride
to our officials-sufficient 10 war
want their most sufficient efforts
to eclipse any past record in
clean city. They also have a
most excellent opportunity of de-
monstratiDg the economies of our
laws and regulations as compared
with the old system OF expensive
and warning Boards of Health.
Under our present system every
item of expense is absolutely
within the control of the Commits
sioners; while the old system
gave the Clty Council no privilege
of reviewing Board of Health ex
pense bills without the menace of
possible greater expense by ap-
pealing to the courts.
A belignrant council frequently
dlscredlted the efforts of con-
scientious Board of Health and
rendered the efforts Of the latter
futile. l he greater mass of the
public was content to referee the
sqpabble and do nothing for sani-
tatiOn-while the public expense
was going on at frightful rate
Under New Iberia's present law
there is no possibility of such ed
tanglements. Our Commissioner
of public safety has ample law
and unquestioned authority-Dr.
Dowllng notwithstanding. 1t is
now question of good Judgment
and vigilance on the part of onr
@. FL. O. to equitably enforce the
sanitary regulation and TO see
that that enforcement shall te
constant and not become lax or
periodical.
We recognize the fact that
much of the result of a good
showing depends upon the spirit
in which the people will cooper
ate with the authorities. The
good, law abiding citizens will
certainly applaud and support ev.
cry effort on the part of the May.
or TO attain a clean city Once a
standard is abl shed and main
tanned long enough to be admired
1t will become a public habit, and
nothing else will satisfy.
