CITY IS LEARNING new
TRAFFIC REGULATIONS

The traffic squad of the Hattiesburg
police department evidently has had
much success in teaching the drivers
of vehicles and the pedestrians of the
city the ms and outs Of the new traf
fic regulations, as but few violations Of
any of the sections are being reported
these days. .
"The citizens kicked for awhile"
Chief Bennett said today, because
they thought the rules were toe strict.
But after. few days they soon saw
that nothing had been included in the
regulations except necessary rules
and the city now seems to be very IA
miliar with them"

for driving by street car from which
passengers were alighting. He was
the first violator for several days.

Scombination Of arsenicals and Bor-
5deaux mixture is the best NethoG Of
their control. The proper arsenical
spray would be made with either one
pound of paris green or three pounds
,of arsenate of lead to so gallons Of
water. When the combined spray is
syused the same quantity Of arsenical
ishould be mixed with so gallons Of
Bordeaux mixture instead Of the wa
ter. The danger that free arsenic
may burn the foliage is lessened and
sfhe Bordeaux mixture may control
leaf spot and other similar diseases
which affect the catalpa. The spray
may be applied with a small outfit for
young trees or with a large high-pow-
er machine such as is used in spray
ing high irees along city avenues.
The caterpillar is attacked by a
number OF parasites and the entomol-
Aogists advise tree owners to encourage
the propagation OF these natural enc
mics of the sphinx. One Of these, a
minute four-winged, wasplike fly, lays
its eggs in the sphinx caterpillar. This

CONTROL CATALPAPES7-
Insect Feeds Exclusively on FoIi-
age of Trees.
Several Methods by Which Sphinx
May Be Readily Destroyed-Com-
bination of Arsenicals and
Bordeaux Is Favored.
fRv z II.

Our native species Of catalpa are
comparatively free from insect attack
but there is one insect, however, the
caterpillar of the catalpa SPHINX
which feeds normally and exclusively
ION the foliage Of these trees and IN
some seasons does very considerable
injury, often completely stripping the
leaves from individual trees and some
times from an entire grove. Owing,
doubtless, to the increased planting OF
these trees outside the regions in
which they are found in the wild state,
this insect has extended its natural
range, and it's injury is more wide
spread now than formerly.
There are several methods by which
the catalpa sphinx may be readily de-
stroyed. The caterpillars may be
gathered by hand, the foliage Of the
trees may be sprayed with arsenical
spoisons, the pupae may be destroyed
by spading the ground around the tree
trunks in the fall, and, indirectly, the
sphinx may be destroyed by protect
ing the parasitic insects which attack
1t. Owing to it's large size, the cater
pillar is easily seen and can be con-
trolled by hand picking. A long ladder
and a 12-foot pole primer or similar
device will be necessary in this work.
Where hand picking is difficult the
application Of an ~arsenical spray or

HATCH BREEDERS WITH HENS
Eest to Wait Until There Are Plenty
OF Rroody Old Fowls, as They
Make Excellent Mothers.

For Matching out the flock of chicks
to be used as breeding stock, it is bet
ter to use hens. 1t is not necessary
to hatch the breeding stock early,
hence it is better to wait until there
are plenty of broody old hens, as they
make better mothers than the pullets
and for this purpose a number OF the
best are kept over each year.
II we wish to hatch 100 chicks we
get - hens ready at once and put the
eggs under them all on the same day,
says a writer in an exchange. On the
fifth day the eggs are tested, and all
infertile ones are removed. Perhaps
one or more Of the hens are relieved
from duty. If we desire more chicks
these hens may be given other eggs
and the work kept going.
When the Matching commences the
hens are watched closely and as soon
as a chick dries off it is removed from
the nest. No hen is given more than
20 chicks to brood. AS o as that
number are Matched they are given to
one of the quietest hens, she having
previously been fed and watered lib
orally.
The chicks are not allowed to have
anything for at least II hours. In this
way not all of the sitters are needed
for mothers and some are broken up
and returned to the laying pens.

YOUNG CHICK REQUIRES ASH
Lime and Phosphates Necessary for
Bone GroWth-Mus Be Furnished
From Animal Sources.

A rapidly growing chick gains not
only in flesh, but makes bone at the
same rate and in order to make this
necessary bone growth, a large amount
of ash is required in the form Of lime
and phosphates. Some of this is fur
nished from vegetable juices but it
must also be furnished from animal
and mineral sources. Shell and grit
are the two most common mineral
sources, while beef scrap and granu-
lated bone are the most common ami
NAL sources. Beef scrap should not
be fed in excess, so bone is the most
reliable source from which to obtain
the bulk Of this animal requirement.

IMPORTANCE OF WORK TEAMS
Good Horses Permit Use Of improved
Implements, Doing Better Work
and Making Profit.

Teams are very largely responsible
for successful farming. Good teams
permit the use of improved imple-
ments, implements that save labor, do
better work and in fact make profit. 1t
has been estimated by those who
should know that it takes nearly one
acre out OF every i've in this country
to feed the cams used in farming.
This, ii true, means that many are
using inefficient teams. Why not raise
colts ana gradually dispose of the
boarders row being used as teams?

and tomato hornworms. The eggs OF
these parasites hatch into white, mag
sgotlike larvae which develop in the
body Of the c%aterpiller and then eat
through its skin and spin little white
cocoons attached to the outside of its
body. AS these parasites are mostly
in evidence in September and October
and largely destroy the last generation
of caterpillars, it is unwise at such
times, especially if the white cocoons
are visible, to kill the caterpillars by
other means.

Pekin Ducks Are Large, Grow Fast

Fowls of Other Breeds.

Young ducks should be fed from
four to six times a day, according to
the variety. Pekin ducks are the

they require more feed than other
ducks, although they must not have
feed that is highly concentrated. That
