Keep this thought in mind in con-

as a war necessity: Poultry Is a means
OF converting into good food materials
that cannot be utilized by man, that
cannot be eaten by any other kinds
of stock and that without the poultry
would be absolute waste. Very clearly

TROUBLE WITH TURNIPS.

PRINCE BAY, N. Y, July 22.
To THE EDITOR OF THE GARDEN DE-
PARTMENT-Can you tell me in THE
SUNDAY Sun how to raise Russia tur-
nips or Swede turnips? I used to be
able to raise them, but for the last ten
or twelve years I cannot get them to
grow more than an inch or two high
and then they die. There is an insect
OF some kind that I cannot get the
best of. have used everything known
to kill insects and have used extreme
care in using the more dangerous pow
ders. l have communicated with the
State Agricultural College with no re-
suit. Everybody around here has the
same trouble. H. l.. A.
In postscript III. A." says: 81 will
not subscribe myself "Old Reader" for
l have no such claim. did not begin
to read THE SUN until l was IA years
old and am only 80 Ijbw."
1t is almost impossible to tell what
fs the trouble with your turnips with
out seeing them. as you give no details
or symptoms whatever. 1t may pos
sibly be that the trouble is with the
soil; If it is clay that bakes as hard as
brick In hot, dry weather, with lit
tie or no vegetable matter in it, that
may be the cause. The remedy then
Is to work in large quantity OF de-
cayed leaves and stable manure, also
ashes or sand, to make the soil loose
and porus to a considerable depth.
Assuming that your soil is all right
ana that insects cause the trouble,
thrips are naturally first to be sus-
pected, because they cause great dam
age and are difficult to locate. They
are intermediate between biting and
sucking insects and damage onion, tur-
nip, cabbage. caulifower, cucumber.
melon. tomato and other vegetable and
noWerlng plants. The remedy is
spraying with fishoil soap, one pound
to two gallons OF water, or with kero-
sene emulsion or strong tobacco water.
The spraying should be done very
thoroughly to reach the insects in the
axis Of the leaves, and the soil around
the plants should be thoroughly wet
to destroy the mature nymphs that
may be hiding, The under side Of the
leaves must also be thoroughly wet.
The flea beetle may be the cause Of
the trouble. Bordeaux and arsenats
lead spray will help keep the flea
beetle away. Kerosene emulsion is
also good to use alternately with Bor-
deaux-lead. In England the practice
Is to dust the plants with lime for flea
beetle.
Aphis have been very troublesome
| OH turnips this season and must be
Kept In check by spraying with nico-
tine sulphate or kerosene emulsion.

Dor recruiter, deposited at the time he
was arrested here by Sheriff Van Pelt
on the charge of soliciting labor to be
