BROWN TAIL MOTH IMPORTED
Inspection Of French Nursery Stocks
Results in u%neovering Many
Nests Of Insects.

Federal and state inspection OF
French fruit and rose stocks during
recent months has resulted in the In
Perception of S5 nests of the brown
tail moth In 80 shipments, In contrast
with SO infested French shipments
which have arrived In this country
during the last nine years. The find
ing of so many nests In such a brief
period indicates that the French in
spection service Is much below the
standard of previous years. To meet
this situation, all French shipments
of rose and fruit stocks are being
f~umigated at the port of entry under
the direction Of the Department of
Agriculture, as well as inspected at
destination by state inspectors. Fur
thermore, a warning has been sent to
the French n%urserymen and the
French inspection service to the effect
that IL shipments continue to arrive
infested with nests Of this injurious
insect, II may be necessary to cancel
all existing permits to import French
stocks.
interruptions have been made by
the state inspectors Of Connecticut,
New York, Indiana. Iowa. New Jersey.

FRUIT FOR AVERAGE FAMILY
E%verbearing Strawberries Should Find
Place in Every Garden Where
There Is Space.

Plenty of vegetables for the table
should be the first consideration of
every home gardener, but fruit trees
and some bush fruit should be plant
ed, say specialists of the United
States Department Of Agriculture. II
does not take a very large space for
growing enough fruit and berries of
the different kinds to supply the aver
age family.
E~verbearing strawberries, which
were a novelty a few years ago., are
now being planted by thousands of
gardeners, and they should find a
place In every garden of ths temperate
region where space will permit.
Strawberries, however, can be grown
under a very wide range of climatic
and soil conditions. The same is true
of the blackberry and the ~dewberry.
Raspberries are more limited as to
distribution, and will not Withstand
the heat Of summer In the South or
the extreme cold of the North. Their
planting is confined almost entirely
to the temperate regions, the Central
and Eastern states and the Pacific
Northwest. Certain varieties Of the
red raspberry that are practically
everbearing, or that at least produce
both a summer and fall crop of fruit.
are now being developed. Raspber-
ries, ~blackberries, and dewberries do
well when planted along a fence.

they are about an inch in diameter,
both leaf stems and young beets can
be cooked together. When the beets
are larger the leaf-stems become tough
and woody. AS a rule two paintings
should be made, one extremely early
and another in about four weeks.
Carrots should be planted just a lit
tie later than beets, and as 500 as
the plants are up they should be
thinned. A second thinning will leave
the plants one and one-half to two
inches apart In the row and give a
supply of small carrots. known as baby
carrots, for use on the table. Tit
tops of the carrots cannot be used for
greens.
Parsnips and satisfy are more In
the nature Of winter crops; that Is,
they are grown during the summer
and kept for winter use. A section Of
row 20 to 80 feet long generally will
produce all the parsnips or satisfy that
the average family will want.
While 1t Is true that too much lettuce
often Is planted at one time, not
enough attention Is given to keeping a
continuous supply. Lettuce plants
grow IN the hotbed or cold frame, or
In a K In the house. can be planted
in tn open ground just as soon as the
dang Of the last frost Is past.
Fresh ThIngs All Year.
b iaklng a study Of the different
kline Of salad crops offered In seed
cat sues one can easily have a con-
tin, Is supply from the earliest
springtime until the late autumn, and
even into the winter. Water cress, for
instance, Is grown commercially In
ponds or springfield streams In sec
lions where the water naturally con-
tains large amounts Of lime. BY start
ing water cress from seeds sown In a
box In the house or by getting a bunch
of cress I'm the market and using the
stems for plants, 1t is easy to grow a
he'd of water cress without the aid of
a stream or pond.
Chickory, or endlve. is n Of the
finest Of the winter salads. The roots
are grown during the summer, and
then dug in the fall and packed In the
cellar in boxes Of moist sand, the roots
being placed rather close together In
the box with the own or tops near
the surface. A covering Of straw is
placed over the box, and the soil
around the roots kept moderately wa
tered. Fresh. young leaves will be
formed beneath the straw, and as they
are grown in comparative darkness
these are white, crisp and tender.

Cement floors for poultry houses are

poultry specialists in the United States
Department Of Agriculture say, that
there is no n best kind OF floor. II

CONTROL OF BLISTER MITE
Very Thorough Spraying, Covering
Every Part Of Tree, Is Recon-
mended as Satisfactory.

Early spraying will control the
blister mite on apple trees. The trees
should be sprayed when the trees are
dormant oil when the leaf buds are
swelling with lime sulphur spray In
about the proportion OF n gallon of
the concentrated lime sulphur to nine
gallons Of water. The spraying must
be very thoroughly done, covering
every part Of the tree. Unless the
spraying is done early the result will
not be satisfactory.

a large part Of the fertillzing value,
provided the manure is well handled.
When the entire crop is plowed under,
a more beneficial and lasting effect is
obtained, but this advantage is not
sufficiently great to equal the feeding
value of the cowpea.
Pillow Under Entire Crop.
Light or sandy soils that have been
cropped for a long time and need
humus receive greater benefit from
blowing under the whole crop. When,
therefore, the improvement of the land
is the sole object, the entire crop
should be plowed under to obtain the
greatest value. In utilizing the entire
crop for soil Improvement, 1t is best
to pillow It under when green. before
being killed by frost. The green
plants decay more readily and are su-
perior to dry plants In their fertilizing
effect.
The results Of analyses made by the
North Carolina agricultural expert
ment station show that one ION OF
cowpea hay contains Al pounds Of
nitrogen. 10 pounds Of phosphoric
acid and 20 pounds Of potash.

The ease with which cowpeas are
grown and their marked effect on sue
ceeding crops have made them n OF
the most popular crops grown for soil
improvement. Besides increasing the
productlveness of the soil. the bulletin
says, the cowpea also improves its
general physical condition making
heavy clay soils more open and sandy
soils more compact. The cowpea has
the distinct advantage of making a
good growth on soils which will not
produce profitable yields of other le-
gumes or cereals. 1t is an excellent
green-manure crop for vineyards and
orchards.

insect pests are hard to reach with
ordinary sprays, but the floating dust
settles upon the under side Of the
leaves as well as on the surface. The
experiments show that much larger
areas can be treated In less time than
is required by spraying. Moreover, the
equipment necessary to apply the dust
is much less expensive than a spray
outfit and its cost Of application is
less than by the older method. II

The muscadine grape will produce

Plant Juice for Fish Bait.

Late in the dry season. when the
rivers are low in the heart of Africa
the Gwari. who inhabit the central
Soudan. set out on prolonged fishing
expeditions. The natives who live on
The banks Of the rivers are proficient
fishermen, taking great pride in their
work, but the village Gwari are not
very sporting In their methods. They
90 out for the final results rather
than for the pleasure of the sport.
They pour the juice of locust tree
pots into the pools, to which the
streams have shrunk. and this causes
the fish To leap out OF the water.
Wildly they leap. Hopping out on the
dry river bottom as often as not. but
the excited natives DO not wait for the
fish 10 catch themselves. They lean
over the shallow water. finding great
delight in snatching the leaping fish
as they flash from the river.
This custom of using the Jump

down from time immemorial among
these strange Africans.

Breathing Under Water.

If a swimmer is three minutes under
water he is looked upon as Il prodigy,
but VI. ThCoris, French doctor, de-
clares that man could remain half
an hour if he only knew how TO handle
the carbonic acid in his system.
\ man proved recently TO body OF
medical experts and scientists that
it was possible 10 remain under water
and laugh at the audience surrounding
a 12-foot deep aquarium. eat cherries,
take out the stones, pull a wry face
when the cherry proves sour, and smile
when pretty woman touched the
glass with a cigarette.
The secret OF all this lies in using
a special method OF natural breathing
as soon as you are under water, TO ex-
hale the carbonic acid gas. This
requires some practice. When this
is done you stop the nostrils, thereby
keeping off all Inhalation.
Rid of the carbonic acid in the blood.
a man is able to remain much longer
under water.
