sucking insect-an aphid. or plant
louse-that is found principally on
the underside of the leaves.
These aphids may be kept under
control by spraying with a mixture
Of one teaspoonful Of nicotine sui
phate and an inch cube Of laundry
soap in a gallon Of water, the soap
being first dissolved in a portion of
the. water. A spray pump that Will
force the liquid out of the nozzle as
fine spray or mist must be used, and
the aphids must be wet with the
spray in order to kill them. The noz-
Ele should be so attached to the spray
rod as to form a right angle at that
point. With this device the spray
can be better applied to the under
surface OF the leaves. Begin spray.

plants.
To facilitate spraying the seed

ARCADE TONIGHT.
Mary McAlister Fashion Critic

Essanay's six-year old star, little
Mary McAlister, Familiarity known
around the studio as Billie, en-
phatically demands that she be al
lowed to take part in all style dis
cussions held by the feminine mem
bers of the company. This does not
appear strange when it is remem-
bered that for the greater part Of
two years she has been receiving a
dressing room education. She
considers herself the court Of last
appeal and it is matter Of record
that several of Essanays best dress
ed stars consider her exclamation of
Every modish" or perfectly darling"
an approval worth striving for.
She is now appearing at the Ar
cade Theatre tonight in The
Bridge of Fancy" Come and sec
for yourself what a fashion expert
she is.

pat out smooth into cake Is inch

turn and bake on the other. This

has caused the landlord much dis
gust After using 500 worth OF trade

for $50 additional AS the crop was
in need of cultivation and the family
was short on meat and flour, he
signed note for the amount and the
tenant drove to town. where he pro-
ceeded TO procure a big lot OF goods.
The disgust OF the landlord came
when the articles were unloaded. \
large part OF the order consisted OF
candy, oranges and chewing and
smoking tobacco. seven out OF the
eight members of the family being
addicted to the use of the weed and
all OF them being fond Of candy What
the landowner said on this occasion
