Insects Do Not Thrive In This Garden,

plants but which will kill the ''lice."
The most common Of these contact
poisons is nicotine sulphate-a tobac-
co extract-made Of tobacco refuse
from factories. This is a poison and,
to be effective in killing the 'lice"
without injuring the plants, must be
used exactly according to the direc-
tons given on the container. United
States Department of Agriculture
Farmers Bulletin $3.50, 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 one-inch cube Of hard soap
should be 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 of packages, and instructions
accompany them.
Effective Application of Spray.
I'm the use Of nicotine sulphate the
effective application Of the spray is of
the utmost Importance, since 1t Is pri-
marily upon this that the success or
failure Of the treatment depends. II
the liquid has stood for any length Of
time it should be agitated thoroughly
before use. The insects themselves
must receive q 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
las possible, always on the first appear
ance Of the insect, not only because
&c 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
In time and kill the advance scouts
and head of The main army Of insect
pests.

Seeger-Bundlie's Fashion
Message

IL NEW pace has been set in ready
to-wear in Blackfoot. Those firms that
put on the fashion show Tuesday even
ing placed on the living models the
harmonious selection Of garments and
hats that proved two important things
we have the goods, and we have the
talent and good taste to know how to
select for each person and how to select
the different things that go we'll to-
gether. We have shown the public that
they can get a complete outfit under one
roof and that it will be perfectly
matched.
OHE applause of the audiences at the
fashion show showed that they appre-
ciated the fact that the living models
as they appeared on the stage, were
we'll dressed turnout, from hat to shoes.
The colors of the dress or coat blended
properly with the hat, and in each case
the trim Of the hat suited the trim of the
rest Of the attire. 1t showed something
IlAoI 10 AAAEIOA SCAAI ~ OVCAy NSSlOAA1CA OAlIA
especially to those who realize that they
cannot choose those things themselves
with any assurance of their being cor
rect. The girl who has not been taught
those things, hesitates to accept the sug-
gestons of salesman for fear it is only
an endeavor to make sales or unload
goods on her. Now the fashion show
has established the fact that we have
the sales people who can look Gus
toner over and then clothe her with the
things that harmonic with her size,
form, age and complexion person
ality, and have it approved and admired
by all who meet her.
LIN THE preparation of the exhibits
for the fashion show, each suit and coat
was scrutinized and then the Johnson
millinery selected hat to go with it,
and houseful Of critics at the show
applauded. Now the experienced
woman can go to these firms with as
surance, and those who are not ex-
perienced can go to them to be fitted
out and know that they are receiving
the judgment Of people whose reputa-
ton in selection has been established by
long series of tests and approvals.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1921-10-20

LIT WAS said that Blackfoot could
not put on a fashion show-that it was
such a difficult thing to do, that it re-
CURED an expert from somewhere to do
that, that it required training and re-
hearsing of the models, and that what
Blackfoot firms put on would fall flat.
We accepted the challenge and as
sembled goods and people and placed
them before the public, and we are
grateful to them for their hearty re-
spouse and for the thanks that have
come to us from every side. This fash
ion show was what we craved-an OPP
portunity to prove our worth to the
public, to prove that we have the goods
and that we know how to combine
them to get the pleasing effects.
OHAT is why we said at the top of
this message that new pace has been
set in ready-to-wear in Blackfoot. That
is why the expressions of appreciation
from people who have paid their money
for mis6ts gathered from different
places that did not harmonic and that
violated the sense of taste and har-
mony. 1t does not matter that somebody
that is overloaded with medley of hats
shall put on a sale and slaughter the
prices to get people to take them, if
there is no harmony between hat and
coat or hat and dress when they are
worm Even if the hat was gift,
present from dear friend, and it did
not accord with the rest of the clothes
it would not be acceptable, and why
should people go to bargain sale and
buy hats because they are cheap or be-
cause the price has been cut in half! 1t
is as i'll advised as it would be for a
dairyman to buy scrub beef cows to
build up his dairy herd just because
they were obtainable for less than they
were quoted on the beef market. The
thoughtful dairyman builds up his herd
by careful selection of pure bred
animals that blend with his other pure
breds and then there is harmony and
results. The successful dairyman does
not go to slaughter sales of stock, and
in the new pace that has been set in
Blackfoot ready-to-wear, thoughtful
people will not rush around to attend
slaughter sales of ready-to-wear and
millinery.

The occupation of coal-mining in
England is said to pass very largely
from father to son and from uncle to
nephew. II is a calling to which one
is dedicated. and more than any 9TH
er class of workers the miners are a
caste and people to themselves. 1t
was about a coal miner, or, as he used
TO be more generally called. a collier,
that the famous story of the Broad
wood grand used to be told--how he
bought the piano out of his monstrous
wages and, finding himself unable to
play 1t. took umbrage and kicked ii
to pieces. The story was generally
believed and much grieved over in mid
dle-ciass Victorian society.

Changing Their Tune

gave room for considerable thought. It
was not only convincing proof Of the
railroad managers having successfully
obtained the upper hand In the matter
of operating costs, but the question
arises whether or not the economical
program is not being carried altogether
too far for safety.

:HALTS CUBAN LOAN
TO PAY HUGE DEBT
Government Plan ThWarted by
Bank Refusing to Accept
Pesos at Par
AMERICAN BILLS TAINTED

Havana. Cuba, Sept 2T.-The at
Tempt of tho Cuban Government to pay
of its floating debt of S46. 900, 900 by
exchanging two pesos for one United
states dollar has been thwartcd by one
OF the large banks, which has refused
to accept pesos at par.
Cubans have been rushing to banks
with quantities of these coins since the
Government had always before given
only one peso for n dollar. When two
pesos were seen to grow where but one
mad grown before, unusual thrift was
practiced.
Banks were for a while puzzled at the
sudden multiplication of the fractional
currency. Traction and lighting COM
panies and other companies making col
.ections from the Government were
turning in pesos by the bushel.
One large contracting firm has re-
ccived an installment of hundred thou
sand pesos, which it has been unable to
cash because the banks refused them at
par.
For years there had been frequently
recurring complaint about the filthy
condition of American bills of small
denomination circulating in Cuba.
Money was needed, and there seemed
no means of rcscuing the island from
the tainted American bills until suddenly
there appeared in Havana newspapers
announcements that the Treasury would
receive CnClr Sans outwOrn dollar bills
and give in exchange two pesos for as
many as were offered for exchange.
The scheme proved too simple. The
United States Mint makes Cuba silver
and gold coins. The silver in a dollar
Is worth forty seven or forty eight
cents and each worn American dollar
would pay for a little over two dollars
worth of perfectly good pesos, which
run about five to the dollar.
