SPRAY Kills Webb Worms
Arserate OF Lead Can Be Used With
Much Success.


Fail webworms. which are identi-
fed by the web structures woven
over the ends Of limbs of fruit trees,
may be killed by using arsenate OF
lead in the ordinary fall spray.
On shade and ornamental trees 1t
is easier to cut out the web and kill
the worms by thrusting the branch
into bucket OF water to which has
been added pint Of kerosene.
Arsenate of lead, which is used at
the rate of three pounds of paste or
apound and a half OF the powder to
80 gallons of spray material or water
will also help to control other fall
insect pests.

INTERSTATE FARM CONGRESS
New Orleans, August, 10.

| New Orleans, August, 10.
Cotton planters visiting the Inter
state Farm Congress, September r.
| IL, will be interested in motion pic
lures and lectures Oh boil weevil
poison, to be given by the expert In
charge OF the Delta Experiment Sta
ton. This is just one of the many
educational features arranged for
what is expected to be the greatest
gathering OF farmers ever held in
| the South.
The thousands of cotton farmers
who are summoned here to discuss
ways and means for developing a
Echsia Of warehouses in which to
keep their crop while awaiting high
er prices, will find these demonstra-
tions especially profitable. "Better
prices and bigger crops" is quite a
promise, but those who are behind
the Interstate Farm Congress say
this is one promise that will be
made good.
The warehouse idea is founded on
the belief that no cotton farmer
would sacrifice his crop ii he could
get enough money to run himself.
Most of the cotton is now thrown
upon the market shortly after it is
harvested, and the price says. Later
on, it rises, and spectators and 9th
ers who had warehouse space, reap
the real profit OF the sweat of the
farmers brow. Under the proposed
system, the cotton would be graded
and valued, and the farmer would
get a negotiable warehouse receipt.
Then he would sell the cotton at the
market price OF the. time when the
cotton goes into consumption thru
the mills.
This is only one phase of the Con-
gress. Another will be the develop
ment OF better marketing conditions
of vegetables, which would mean
lower prices to the consumer and
higher prices to the farmer. This
sounds like paradox but it ism t..
Retail prices are high because a poor
distribution system has been devel-
| oped. A poor distribution system
has been developed because the farm
er don't get encouraging returns for
their produce. They don't get prop
er returns because they don't pro-
duce and ship In sufficient volume to
have Il voice in fixing the prices. And
they don't pack quality goods.
All these weaknesses are to be dis
cussed by an imposing group of ex-
perts, and the remedies are to be
pointed out. Better relations are to
be developed between the farmers
and the middlemen.
The railroads have cut round trip
rates 25 per cent. Here is how to
take advantage of the reduction
Buy ticket to New Orleans, and
take a receipt from the agent. Then
register at the Interstate Farm Con
gress headquarters, and you will be
given a certificate which upon being
presented at the ticket office here,
will entitle you to ticket back
home at half fare.
Hotel rates will be on the dollar d
day basis, it Is announced, for those
attending the Congress. The dele
gates badge will secure this rate.

 Iwent on a trip to Springfield with Sam Futile. Sam uses his Essex for business purposes and saves dollars of railroad fares.
 I noticed that Sam's car had more response and power than mine. This peeved me somewhat as I had spent over $100. .00 in the past few months for overhauline and carbon grinding.
 But was dumbfounded when .am's gas indicator showed that on the 100 mile trip he had used but six gallons of gas. 1 had burned up little over nine.

Mr. Essex Owner!

So I asked Sam what kind of magic he had used to make his Essex perform so wonderfully. He gave me his secret-FAM-O.
 As result of his trip, I poured an eieht-ounce can of FAM-O in my gas tank before starting a 226-mile trip to Vermont. wak getting II miles to the gallon when 1 started out. On the re- turn trip 1 averaged over 16. And that small can of FAM-O at S1.0 did the trick for me-
 Now make practice of pour ing about 2 ounces of FAM-O in every ten gallons of gas. And some day If you see a red Essex touring car go ripping by up some steep hill, you'll know it's yours truly with his AM-O-ized Wonder Car. Send S1.o0 to COR DON MANUFACTURING CO.,, Foxboro Mass, for S-oz. can enough FAM-O for 40 gallons of gasoline.
