PROTECT GARDENS
 FROM CUT WORMS
Prof. G. C. Becker of the College of Agriculture at Fayetteville Gives
 Formula t0 Eliminate the
 Pests-The Breeding Places.

Fayetteville, April ii.-"If farm CTS and gardeners want to be per- feetly safe in the job of growing food and feedstuns. they must re- member" says Prof. G. s. Becker of the College of Agriculture at Fay .etteeille. that there are a good many enemies to fight"
 One of the little enemies of all farmers and gardeners is the cut worm, he continued. Every sprine gives us lot of trouble in both field and garden with the different kinds of cut worms that come out at night and cut off the various kinds of plants just at, or little above. the surface of the ground Cleaning ur breeding and oVerwintering places would usually have prevented the presence of the worms, but when these have been neglected. poisoned bait should be used at once.
 Cut worms breed along weedy fence rows. ditch banks and weedy fields. They spend the winter in such places and in the spring come out of their quarters. Frequently a cleaning up of such places hy breaking in the fall, would have de- stroyed practically all of these cut worms
 Professor Becker recommends the following formula for the poison to kill the cut worms:
 Wheat bran, 20 pounds: Paris
 Green, i pound; cheap syrup. 9
 quarts; oranges or lemons.
 three; water. three gallons.
 Of course, this can be modified to meet the demand Mix the Paris green with the bran until the pois- on is thoroughly a part of the mix ture. Squeeze the lemons or or anges into the water. cut up the peeling and pulp into small pieces and add to the mixture, add the syrup to the fruit juice and then mix this sweetened fruit juice and the poisoned bran mixture very thoroughly.
 This bait can now he apphed." says Professor Becker, where the worms are bad. and it is desirable to apply it late in the evening. It can be scattered broadcast along fence rows or ditch banks, or can be scattered in and around infested holes, or if can be scattered broad cast at the rate of about i pounds to the acre. This mixture should not be allowed to he where chickens can have access to it, although. when scattered thinly around the fields or fence rows, especially in the eve nlng; it will not harm even the chickens"

It has adyer- tised the state in the most disgrace ful manner. 1t is q great pity be- cause Arkansas has been looking up and has been trying Co get away from its reputation. There ought to be some way to get politics where the people can take pride in the government of the state. There ought to be some way to cut out this terrible mud singing and have nominations decided upon higher ground. Here is a great state mak- ing mighty struggle to get to the front. Here are the farmers and the laborers and the merchants and the bankers and the professional men all working to get Arkansas to the front. Here also is bunch of politicians advertising the state in the most Iiscreditable manner, and unfortunately the politicians have the public ear as all inc other classes put together do not have. IL is time for the rank and He Of the party to insist on decency The great majority of voters do not be- lieve in bad politics. Tn fact the condemnation among the voters has been most emphatic.

How to Win Elections.

William Allen White has this to say in the Emporia Gazette in re- ply to Brother Thompson of the Howard Courant.
 How long has it been. anyway, since The Kansas City Star support ed man for mayor in that city who was successful at the polls?- Howard Courantr
 That is not the way to put the question The way to state the question in terms that will bring out the real worth of a newspaper is this: How many times has it sup ported a man who ought not to have won; or how many times has it sup ported a man who should have won?n
 A newspapers victories are it's liabilities. Its real assets are the lickings it gets when it IS right, and the looi Iolks wake up too late to find this eutl
 To which il might be added that The Star would find no trouble in being on the winning side in every Kansas City election if it didn't care what sort of a mayor was chosen, or what he did afterward.-Ka Kansas City Star.

Cut Your Store Bill
 Down One Half

Tens of thousands of farmers as well as town and city folks cut down their store bills one-half last year and saved money in spite of generally short crops and re- duced wages.
 Absolutely millions of dollars were saved and countless families lived better than ever before in the face of the cotton crisis and general business depression.
 How were these burdensome store bills cut down9 By the real money-saving power of good home gardens, rightly planted and kept planted and tended through the season.
 Hastings 1916 Seed Catalogue tells how to cut store bills down; tells about gar den and farm seeds of kinds and quail ity that cannot be bought from your mer- chant or druggist. It's full of garden and farm information. It's free if you ask for it. Write for it now. H. c. HASTINGS Q, Atlanta, Ga. (Advt.)
