GRAssHoPPERs POISON BAIT.
Vermont Extension Service Advances In
formation for Farmers.

| The Vermont agricultural extension
service has adapted to Vermont condi
tions the recent recommendations OF the
federal department of agriculture as the
most practical means of destroying
lgrasshoppers and preventing their raw
ages by use of poison bait made as
| follows.
Wheat bran, 90 pounds; Paris green,
one pound cheap molasses or syrup, two
and onc-half quarts; oranges or lem
ons, six fruits.
Anything of this nature must, of
course, be made and distributed with
care, as poison bats may poison chill
dren as well as grasshoppers II placed
where they are readily accessible.
Thoroughly mix together the bran and
Paris green. An ordinary washtub will
answer for this purpose. Into separ-
ate receptacle containing the molasses
or syrup, squeeze the juices of the fruit,
then chop up finely the skin and pulp
of the fruit and add this also to the mo-
lasses mixture, which is then diluted
with two gallons of water. Mix the two
together and add enough more water to
uililS LLt WIctt w sun ubuSh. luis
amount of poison bait is sufficient to
treat from five to ten acres when prop
erly applied. 1t should be borne in mind,
however, that the fruit is the essential
element of this bait and If not employed
rs per cent OF the efficiency of the bait
is lost.
This poison bait should be applied to
tine area to be treated very early in the
morning, before sunrise. To obtain the
best results, the bait must be sown
broadcast around the border and in strips
on rod apart over the area. More
than one application may be necessary.
Broadcasting obviates the possibility OF
horses, cattle, sheep, poultry or birds
being able to obtain a sufficient amount
of poison in the field to kill or iniure
them. But under no circumstances should
the bait be scattered over treated areas
in piles or punches for fear that birds
or live stock might, under such circum
stances, eat enough of the poison to prove
fatal

Splendid Advice.

A contributor to the current issue Of
Farm and Fireside tells as follows how
to avoid lawsuits:
"Talk about no one.
"Make friends with people who hate
you.
"Give no one cause to hate you.
IF the line fence needs mending, get
together; and get it done at any cost,
and don't quarrel over foot or two OF
land.
Help any living thing in need, es-
pecially sick or poor neighbor.
Don't sigh any papers unless you
are sure OF their contents.
Don't brag about your bank account.
Don't go on any persons note, even
to save his home; for, while your sym
pathy may be all right, doing so may
send your own wife to the poorhouse.
Don't make threats, harbor rough
cases, or go in debt"

inches, but keeping somewhat the form
OF Gothic arch, with a breadth at the
bottom nearly double its height. In the
years to follow, the hedge must be kept
narrow at the top, so that the foliage
above may not shade that below or in
jure the broad thick growth near the
ground. Evergreens should be planted
about IL inches apart and in a single
row, and the pruning need not be started
so soon, as this form of tree takes nat
urally pyramidal shade. But as these
hedges grow larger, they should be
sheared every spring, to keep them all
even and within bounds.
