"Coal oil is one Of the best agents
for the destruction Of reaches and
their eggs. 1t should be sprayed free
ly by means of a machine oil can into
the cracks and crevices Of the floors
and other woodwork where they breed.
Powdered borax mixed with a little
sugar is also a good remedy. but in
the presence Of other food borax is not
very effective. Crumbs should be care

1.-THE best way to destroy ants is to
trace them to their nest and pour into
It gasoline or benzine. When using
these substances remember that they
are highly infammable.
1.-THE young Of fleas live in carpets
and mating, so the cats and dogs
should not only be kept clean, but the
sweepings from the carpets in which
they sleep should be burned. A solu-
tion of corrosive sublimate, which is q
dangerous poison to be handled with
care, is the best spray for relief from
bed bugs.
ITO SAFE clothes from moths pack
them in paper bags which have been
sealed and made air tight. Moth pre-
ventives in fakes or balls should be
freely distributed in trunks. closets
and the pockets of clothes.
"a good defense against flies is q
tight garbage pail lid. Fly paper dis
tributed through the house will also
be great help in destroying them"

Coal oil will help the housekeeper
out of many difficulties. A spoonful
Of kerosene added to kettle Of very
hot water will make windows, looking
glasses and picture glasses bright and
clear. Use small clean cloth, wiring
it dry and rub it over the glass after
wiping down the framework with an
oiled cloth; then proceed to the next
window and treat 1t similarly on both
sides. After that 80 back to the first
one and wipe 1t dry with large clean
cloth. No real polishing is required,
and the windows or glass will look
clear and shiny.
Kerosene will clean your hands bet
ter than anything else after blacking
a range or stove. Pour little in the
water; wash your hands in it: then
wash them in tepid water and finally
with plenty of soap and stiff brush
in hot water. Finish up by rubbing
the hands with lemon and rosewater
and glycerin.
When your kitchen sink is rusty rub
it over with kerosene. Squeaky shoes
are cured by dipping the soles in kero-
sene-enough to reach the top Of the
soles without reaching the upper
leather.
The white spots appearing in the
spring on the lining Of your refrigera.

Beds of bulbs are not so attractive as

For bulbs are far more charming when
they are not formally arranged. Hya-

rule They are stiff and formal, any
way, in appearance, and look we'll in

Immediately l took measures to

term, through action of the Legisla-
ture, several new bureaus were created
and put into operation, all proving ben
eficial to the farming industry. How
ever, this work could not be carried to
completion, because of the political
change in the administration in 1915.
l have reason to believe my manage

to the farmers of the State. I am now
respectfully asking the Republican
members of the next Legislature to
give me the opportunity to renew and
carry forward to a greater measure of
completion, the plans formulated and
entered upon during my term.
This position demands a wide know
ledge of the farm interests Of the
State, an extensive acquaintance with
farmers and farm organizations, a 10y
