 Spraying.
 ''In this I have also followed the directions of Dr. Clinton.
 I dissolve fifty pounds of lime in fifty gallons of water, fifty gallons of copper sulphate in fifty gallons of water, making two barrels of stock sO- lution. Each gallon of water carries one pound of lime or one pound of copper, useing four gallons of the milk of lime and four gallons of the copper solution in one barrel Of fifty gallons gives us four pounds of lime and four pounds of copper to the bar rel,-and this is our Bordeaux mix ture. For bugs I add three pounds of arsenate of lead to each barrel of Bordeaux and apply it before the bugs begin to hatch out in the latter part of June For spraying I use a barrel on wheels with four nOzzles, doing four rows at a time, pumping by hand.
 "I made three applications with the lead mixture and five thereafter of the Bordeaux alone, making eight spray ings in all.
 After fifteen years experience and with 5,400 bushels of sound potatoes in 1915, I am convinced that the only remedy for blight as we'll as reducing rot to a minimum is the frequent ap- plicatiOn of Bordeaux.

In the first place." said Marie, smil-
ing at her little friends anxiety, give
him plenty of closet room. And,
speaking of closets, it is well to re-
m to empty the one that belongs
to the spare room, SO that it will be
ready to receive the guests belongings.
Bureau OF chiffOnier drawers should
also be left empty, for a guest should
never be made to feel that he or she
is in any way mountaineering the
household.
The writing table or desk, which is
an almost necessary adjunct to the
spare room, should be supplied with
stationery, pencils. pen and ink, or if
one lives out of town, it should further
and, if possible, picture postcards Of
some beautiful spot in the neighbour
hood or of the house itself.
"A razor strop, shaving paper, neck
tie rack and all other little convent
ences will span comfort for your guest
and should always be at hand. There
should also always be a plentiful sup
ply Of fresh towels, an extra tooth
brush and wash rag. All these things
may seem but ~trifles, but their provi-
sion deSignates the thoughtful hostess
who is anxious for her home to be the
center of gracious hospitality"

MOOSE REJECTS
DRY" PLATFORM
Table Resolution By Vote of
523 to 81, Saying They
Favor 1t, But Will
Not Adopt It.

Auditorium, Chicago, June 10.-The
progressive convention by a vote Of
523 to 80, tabled a resolution favoring
prohibition. Delegates expressed the
opinion that while they favor prohibi-
ton, they DO not want to make it the
main issue in the party's campaign.
Delegate w. d. Cooper, Of Lawrence,
Kas, launched the prohibition fight in
PRODUCING an amendment proposing a
federal constitutional amendment to
prohibit the sale, manufacture, impor-
liquors. 1t was greeted with prolonged
applause. His amendment read as fol-
lows:
w pledge ourselves to submit to the
people Of the United States an amend
ment to the constitution forbidding the
sale, manufacture, importation n ex-
portation Of Intoxicating liquors."
Henry Allen, of Kansas, urged adop-
tor of the plank which he said has
designed to conserve humanity"
James R. Garfield differed with Allen,
not, as he said, because he did not be-
LEV in prohibition, but because it's
appearance in the platform would make
prohibition the main issue in the cam
paign and not be to the best interests
of the party.
Takes Time.
"The liquor question:" he said, lis one
that must be solved by the slow tedious
process of education. This party should
not make prohibition an issue in this
campaign unless we are willing to for
get all other issues. 1t takes courage TO
postpone, but 1 hope this convention
will refuse a prohibition plank" said
Garfield in conclusion. The applause
was vigorous.
Former Lieutenant Governor Wal
ACE, of California, who spoke for the
amendment suggested that Roosevelt be
asked whether such a plank should be
inserted, but the delegates groaned dis
approved. He pointed out the lessons of
the European war to- show the ad-
vantages Of prohibition.
The vote tabling the resolution and
excluding the plank from the platform
was announced the convention whooped
its approval. Afterward Chairman
Robins followed a suggestion that the
convention be given an opportunity to
express its sentiments on the question.
He asked all those who favored the
principle to rise and almost the entire
throng stood and checred.
Chairman Robins said the latter
action of the delegates was a splendid
testimonial' of belief in prohibition.

hens. Eve was chasing the lens round

the hens We're flying around cackling
as loud as possible.
At last Eve made one hop and landed
on a hens back and the other hens
flew yer the wire fence int their own
yard. Eve hung on to the hens back
until she flew over the fence too, and
hen Eve hoped up to Ethel and into
her lap as much as to say: See, l knew
you didn't want those hens there and

Ethel picked Eve UP, went into the
house and old her mother about it
and Ethel says she knows that Eve I'M
derstood all she had told her and that
she did drive the hens away.
Anyway, the hens have eve come
over into the yard since n if they see

thoughtfully one day. I'VE have an old

There certainly is, if o just give

Marie. The walls are most import

an expert could manage the problem

The color chosen should be dun.
Tan, brown, putty. cream, gray or

the colors of the rooms opening from

ITO correctly furnish a narrow hall

pieces of furniture-usualiy a table
and a chair; but this rule is broken
occasionally for variety's sake. This
table, or an equivalent, is needed to
hold the card tray, bowls of flowers

purpose of necessity or ornament.

SLEEPY Time TALES,
Tip Runs Aw.v

lip Runs Away.
once upon a time Tip went to call
on his city cousin in the park. Baby
John had come to the park in his babv
coach and Tip perched on the TOP and
rode with him. A great many people
stopped to talk with nurse about them
as 1t looked SO funny to see Tip rid
ing with a baby. When they reached
the park Tip ran off and nurse didn't
pay much attention to him as he al
ways came back in time to go back to
the house with them.
When Tip reached his Cousins he
found him ready to go and visit some
cousins in the country and Tip started
along with them and forgot all about
baby John. The squirrels ran along
with them along the road as happy as
possible, and at last reached the home
OF their country relatives. Tip had
grown SO fat no one knew him at first
and they invited him to visit with them
for a while. Tip thought he would SO
when the others went home Tip
started.
When it came time for nurse to go
home with Baby job she called and
called for Tip, but no little Tip came
and she had to go home without him.
Baby John cried for his little pet so
hard that his father said he would see
Wha he could do to find the squirrel
and went out to the park to see if he
couldn't lnd him.
Although he called and looked every
where he didn't find Tip and he
started for home when he met a no
liceman whom he thought might keep
hlm, for nearly everyone knew Tin
because you KNOB, he had lost the
tip of his tail.
The policeman said he would look
about and thought The could find him.
h very next day the policeman
had a d1V off 1n1 In pyo,,t r,;+l,. ~,
little boy out into the country to look
for spring lowers. AS they were look
ing for these, who should come run
ming up and jump on the policeman's
shoulder but Tip. SO they carried the
squirrel home to Baby John and now
they are very happy again.
Tip say he is never goin. to run
away again and the policeman says he
is going to watch and see that he
doesn't.
Eve and the Garden.
once upon a time the Three e. chill
dren started to have a garden. Edward
dug the ground up and Edna planted
the seeds while little Ethel brought out
her watering pot and nearly drowned
the seeds before they had a chance to
grow. Edward thought it was best to
put a wire fence around the garden Sc
that Eve, their pet rabbit. would not
be able to get in and spoil it.
Ethel said she was going to go right
out tell the rabbit thai she must
not go into the garden, not even once,
and that night at supper she said she
knew Eve would do just as she had told
her for she knew she was sure she UNI
derstood what she said.
In a few weeks nearly everything
was growing fine in the garden anG
Edward was kept busy digging up the
weeds. Eric didn't seem to think the
