Care Needed in
Making Kerosene
Emulsion Spray

Care must be used in making kero-
sene emulsion in the battle against the
plant pests, says the American For
estry Association. The stock should
be made up by following the direc-
tions after which is must be diluted
to the proper proportions for spray
ing. The proportions follow:
(Stock Solution-66 per cent, oil)
kerosene local OILY, two gallons; soft
or rain water, one gallon; hard soap,
one-half pound. In small quantities,
use, kerosene, one pint; soft water,
one-half pint; Ivory soap one-eighth
of cake.
Dissolve the soap and add the kero-
sene and shake violently in a quart
jar. Dilute as follows: For fifteen
per cent, spray add one part stock sol
ution to three and one-half parts of
water For twelve per cent, spray add
| part stock solution to four and one
half parts of water. For ten per
cent, spray add one part stock solu-
ton to five and one-half parts of wa
ter. For eight per cent. Spray add
one part stock solution to seven and
one fourth parts of water. For per
cent spray add one part stock solu-
ton to ten parts of water.
For dormant spraying twelve to
fifteen per cent kerosene emulsion
can be safely and satisfactorily used,
but for spraying Of foliage in sum-
mer never use stronger than ten per
cent six or eight per cent, emulsion
being the more advisable percentage
for general spraying Of trees and
shrubs.

1t is now up to the farmers to do
their part-to avail themselves of the
laws which have been enacted; for
those laws will not avail if they are
not used.
The farmers themselves must be-
come inbued with the spirit of CO.
operation, for cooperative effort
without the cooperative spirit w
not avail. They must strive to estab-
fish mutual confidence, for distrust
has heretofore killed every movement
looking toward betterment in agricul-
tural conditions. They must recognize
that the isolation which existed when
the country was new is thing of the
past, and that in the present every
man is his brothers keeper.
In a growth of the fraternal spirit
lies the hope the hope of agriculture.

WIVES WHO FAIL
SHE WAS
TOO HELPLESS
CHE was fragile little lady, flower

CHE was fragile little lady, flower
like, exquisite, lovely.
He used to like to watch her-just
the wonder of her delicate beauty.
And he was proud, so proud, when
finally he took her home and showed
her to his family as their relative
his wife! 1t was a pleasure to shut
windows, bring her wraps and show
her every attention he possibly could.
He was wondrously happy over it
at first
But with the honeymoon over and
the work at the office piling on a
little more heavily all of the time, the
thing palIed. Finally it irritated
him.
He used to wonder sometimes why
she didn't get the scarf she needed
for her shoulders herself instead Of
interrupting the few quiet hours he
had after dinner.
1t annoyed him to be asked con-
tinually to put down this window or
shut that door so draft would not
strike her. She had hands, why
couldn't she have done it herself
he thought.
When she wanted drink Of water
she asked him to get it for her ard
if the book she had been reading
had been left upstairs she asked him
to bring it.
And the bills, the water bills, gas
bills and electric bills-5he would
have paid them in time to get the
discount, but ene weather had beer
so sharp and she feared going out
in it. she explained, ana if she didn't
g., to it il Il day or two he could
take care of them next week.
And so, finally, in order to get
away from Il constant reminder Of
the delicacy he once thought he adj
mired he spent his evenings alone.
If she sat on the veranda he sought
the living room. If she read in the
living room, he went upstairs
And things kept going from bad
to worse because the fragile little
lady was not clever enough to UNI
derstand that when a man marrles
some of his ideals reverse.

know, so ! feel that | have something

nize your responsibility in connection

ity is tremendous, especially if the
girl has never worked before.

eral of her kind, live quite easily,
dress well and seem to her to repre-
sent the sum total of the best in life.
"Then-make it clear to that girl

ed, fearing that in my enthusiasm II

THE difference? Only dollars.
"And that girl. Mrs Ames, will
