The most common of these contact
poisons is nicotine sulphate--a tObac

from factories. This is a poison and,

without injuring the plants, must be
used exactly according to the direc-
States Department of Agriculture
Farmers Bulletin $50, on the control
Of garden diseases and insects, has
the following TO say regarding the use
of nicotine sulphate:
For small garden plats one tea
spoonful of nicotine sulphate should
be used to one gallon of water to
which a one-inch cube of hard soap
should he added and thoroughly mixed
If a larger quantity is desired, use one
fluid ounce to eight gallons of water,
with the addition of one-half pound of
soap. Full directions are given on the
covers If packages. and instructions
accompany them.
Effective Application of Spray.
''In the use of nicotine sulphate the
effective application of the spray is of
the utmost Importance since it is pri-
marily upon this that the success Or
failure of the treatment depends If
the liquid has stood for any length of
time it should be agitated thoroughly
before use. The insects themselves
must receive thorough coat of the
spray or they will not be killed, and
immediate inspection after spraying
should show the foliage occupied by
the insects to be completely wet
Spraying should be done as early
as possible, always on the first appear
ance of the insect, not only because
1t is good practice to keep the plants
free from pests but because more thor
ough work can be done on small plants"
The main point is to start the fight

which limit the number which may be

Life of Lumber-Close Open
ings During Winter.

Board floors usually are short-lived
unless air Is allowed to circulate I'M
der them. This may be provided for
by means of openings in the founda-
tion walls, which should be closed
during the winter. A board floor COW
cred with one-quarter inch of fine
sand, with scratching material on this
makes a good floor. The litter and
sand can be removed readily when de-
sired, and fresh materials provided.
If the wooden floors are constructed
within two or three inches of the
ground il is essential that the founda-
ton walls be constructed in such a
way that rats cannot gain access be-
meath the floor.

Bulk of sales figures should always
be studied in conjunction with the

on weight and quality. The bulk of
sales figures may vary widely from
day to day without indicating that the

frequently arises from limited trade

Shows Quality and Grades.


To be of practical use to the farmer,
the bulk of sales quotations must be
considered with the knowledge of what
is being offered for hogs of various
grades and qualities. Studied in this
way the bulk of sales reports are of
material value, for they show the quail
ity and grades that make up the prin-
cipal supply at any market for any
period. Bulk quotations also give
more lucid idea of general trade con-
ditions on those sessions of the mar
ket when the values from the opening
to the closing vary widely.
The Qualification and, standardiza-
ton of market reports and classified
tons throughout the whole country is
one of the big tasks on which the bu-
rcau of markets. United States De-
partment of Agriculture, is working
When this has been accomplished and
the livestock trade begins to grade its
receipts with reasonable uniformity
the need for bulk of sales quotations
will not be nearly SO great as at
present.
