LOOK OUT FOR CUTWORMs

This is the "cutworm' season and
in places where they are eating the
buds from the trees and grape vines,
the raricher should get action against

Remedy-Take twenty pounds of
coarse flaked bran, pound of Paris
Green, 2 quarts of molasses and 6
oranges or lemons Stir the molasses
into gallon of water; add the juice
iof the fruits and their rinds finely
chopped; stir in the Paris green and
bran, adding enough water to make it
into a dough dry enough so that it
can be spread.
Place this on the ground around the
trees and about one inchfrom the base
late in the evening. AS soon as il
hardens it will have to be renewed.
The success of this method is large.
ly dependent upon getting the fruit
flavor and some of the Paris Greer
on each flake Of the bran, making
these flakes both attractive and pol
sonous to the cutworms- therefore

HARVESTING THE WOOL CROP

Sheep shearing is usually done in
late spring after the lambing season.
The work should be performed on a
warm day, so that the ewes may not
become chilled. For flocks of less than
so head, hand power machines are the
most economical. These machines are
more rapid, produce smoother work,
injure the sheep less, are more easily
handled, and result in larger crop
than where hand shears are used.
After the fleece has been removed
all tags and dirt should be cleaned out
of it and it should be rolled up, not too
tightly, the skin side out, and tied
with paper Irvine. The value of the
wool crop is often impaired by the use
of binder Irvine in tying up fleeces.
Anything is superior to binder Irvine
and paper Irvine is most satisfactory
Boxes for tying fleeces are not neces-
sary; in fact wool shows better if not
tied too tightly.

storage by evaporation would be great,

Making aviation gasoline for the
Government took very considerable
part of the low boiling point or highly
volatile constituents of the crude oil,
and, as result, the gasoline left avail
able for regular use lacked those quail
ties which assure easy starting of the
automobile engine.
The Governments demand for avi-
alton gasoline reached its maximum in
the late fall of 1913, and then for peri
cd of about six weeks the deficiency of
Red Crown gasoline in low boiling
point constituents or easy starting
qualities was most apparent.
Now that the war is won and the
great demand for aviation gasoline has
ceased, we are again able to offer the
same grade of Red Crown gasoline as
formerly, with the same full and COM

the low to the whichis necessary
