POTATO BEETLES ARE
 EARLY THIS YEAR
Home Gardeners Must Protect Their Crops By Spraying in Time,

A news service for the benefit ef home gardeners has been initiated by c. NJ. C6dding, special field agent Of the United States Department of Agriculture, now detailed at the Con-. heotiett Agricultural college. This letter, which is being sent to all garden supervisors and leaders i11 the state is put out from the Headquart- CTS of the Committee of Food Supply, Connecticut State Council of Defense and gives timely Information in re- gard to insects ann their control.
 The insect pest for which the warm ing is now out is the potato bug which has appeared unusually early this year Mir. Cedding points out taht' the female bugs are now laying their eggs and that every female will Dc the mother of about two thousand bugs by fall if she is allowed to continue her course tnmolested.
 The remedy for the potato bug is a thorough spraying of the vines with lead arsef1ate, the spray solution be- ing made tip of two pounds of DOW dered lead arsenate 10 fifty gallons of water. Where the paste is used in stead of powder, four pounds will be required to fifty gallons of water. Where small quantities of the spray solution are needed, one tablespoon ftil Of powder (two tablespoons of pastel arsenate of lead to 8 gallon of water is sufficient.
 l There are a number of standard brands of arsenate of lead which can be purchased
 l In addition to the potato bug, a warning nas also been sent out to be on the lookout for the flea beetle which 1 has appeared in quite large quantities l in this state. The flea bettia at. tacks potatoes, tomatoes, cabbage; ant several other plants as well, riddins
 the leaves of the young plants, thu: Towering their vitality This beetlt
 greatly resembles the common flea both in appearance and in the way i jumps around. It is however, some what larger than the flea.
 Potato plants sprayed with arsen
 ate of lead for potato bug and Bor
 deaux mixture for diseases such a
 blight etc., are protected to
 great extent from any serious dam
 age from flea beetles. which do no
 seem to attack plants which have bee,
 properly sprayed with either of thes

DEMOCRATS CONSIDER
 WHERE PLUMs WILL GO
Many Want to Be Street Commission
 er-other Places Also Sought.

The common council members, now
 all democrats have held their first meeting to discuss where the ap-
 pointiVe plumS in city offices now held
 by republicans shall go.
 It is understood that there are ap-
 f'licants in plenty for every office that
 is to be filled by appointment from
 the council with the largest number after the place of street commission CT now held by George E. Fellows Most prominently mentioned for this place are James P. Fox of Greeneville, 8 well known brick mason, Frank N. and Henry Gebrath, q former alder man and for many years office assist ant in the street department while E. c. Li1lfbridge was street commission CT. It is understood that there are enough more who think they ought to be considered for this appointment to bring the number of applicants up to seven or eight.
 The office of corporation counsel, which is now held by Attorney Her man Afofsin. 2nd, is also another to 1 be filled with the probability, it is un- derstood. that this will go to Attor. l ney Joseph T. Tanning. who has al- 1 ready held the same office during oth- i CL OSItiONI dlLC AL torney Earnings candidacy, however It is understood will not be entirely Gnopposed.
 1 There is also the appointment to be made of one member of the common | council to the water board, which will
 offer some grounds for rivafry among | the council members to obtain this 1 honor.
 | The positions of police chief and chief of the fire department, so long held by the present jncumhents, Pc. ice Chief George Linton and 1Tirl Chief Howard L. Stanton, are also ap- pointive places. but changes in these are not at all probable.
