they are general feeders. White grubs,
or GRUB worms" are the larvae or
young Of the brown May or June
beetles, with which most persons are
familiar. The beetles occur In the
North as late as August. while In the
South they appear in April or earlier.
control.-Deep blowing Is the most
effective remedy for white grubs.
Cross blowing and deep disking are
sometimes necessary, and the ground
should be disturbed often and kept
clean of weeds so that the grubs can
be eliminated.
Rotation OF crops. avoiding the
planting OF potatoes, beets, sweet corn,
and other crops on land which has
been for some time In the same crops

kainit, as heavy top-dressing are of
benefit Gas lime is valuable. Hogs,

garden, or when the crop is or, will
eat large numbers of grubs. Domestic
fowls will pick up grubs on newly

Wireworms.
Wireworms, like white grubs. are
common pests in the garden and are
also general feeders. They are the
offspring of swapping beetles, or
''snap-bugs," and are of long oval
form.
Their tastes are similar to those
OF the white grubs. They attack and
often do great injury to potatoes and
other plants bearing tubers, as well
as to carrots, beets, sweet potatoes,
and onions.
Control.-The remedies advised for
white grubs apply also to wireworms,
with due care in selecting land for
planting and in fall blowing and crop
much more difficult to control than
white grubs.
Blister Beetles.
Blister beetles are common farm
pests and are very destructive to
vegetables, especially beans, peas, pc.
tatoes, and beets. They travel In the
same manner as army worms and are
sometimes called army beetles" for
this reason. They are hungry feeders
and travel frequently in lines, eating
everything in their path, chewing up
apparently more than they need for
food. They are slender In form, some
what soft bodied, and colored various
ly. Some species are perfectly black,
some are yellow with black stripes,
others are of the same color with
several light stripes, some are gray.
and others are gray spotted with black.
Blister beetles are particularly abund-
ant in the Southwest, but occur prac-
tically everywhere. Different species
appear at different times, usually after
the plants have made about one-third
growth, and they continue until late
in the season.
Control.-Lead arsenate applied at
the very outset of attack is the best

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
From the standpoint OF their food
plants, injurious insects may be
grouped roughly into two classes ::
First, those which are choice feeders
and ordinarily attack only single
crop, or crops of single class, al
though when they are extremely
abundant they may resort TO other
crops or weeds. Examples are the
asparagus beetles and asparagus
miner and the large tomato worms,
which confine their feeding TO plants
OF a single family. Second, those
known as general feeders-insects
which are not particular as to their
food plants. Some of these devour
nearly every form of vegetable that
grows in the garden. These include
cutworms and other caterpillars,

PIant-Lice.
Practically all vegetables, especially
cucumbers, cabbages, and peas, suffer
considerable damage from attack by
small, soft-bodied insects commonly
called 'lice" or "aphis," but better
known as plant-lice. These work for
the most part on the lower sides of
the leaves, which become curled or
otherwise destroyed by loss of their
vital juices. They give Off a sweet
mixture called honeydew, which at
tracts ants, flies, and other insects.
Plant-lice increase with great rapidity
by the female giving birth to living
young. The different kinds vary In
color from light to dark green or
nearly black, grayish, brown, yellow,
and red. They have comparatively
long legs and have feelers attached
to the head. Some forms have two
pairs of transparent or clear wings.
They feed by sucking juices of the
plants through beak. Familiar ex-
amples are the melon aphls, pea aphIs,
and cabbage plant-lice.
Control.-If the plants are grown
under glass, plant-lice may be killed

Cutworms.
Tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and other
truck plants, particularly when started
under glass, are likely to be injured
by cutworms when transplanted
These appear in great numbers in
the spring and early summer, and
the injury is often complete before
the gardener notices 1t. The chief in
jury is due to the severing OF the
stems of young plants at about the
surface of the ground. One cutwOrm
can destroy many plants In single
night by cutting off more than 1t can
devour.
Control.-The best remedy is what
is called poisoned bait" For use in
a small garden take / peck of dry
bran, add ounces Of white arsenic
or Paris green, and mix thoroughly
with 2 gallons of water In which has
been stirred half gallon Of sorghum
or other cheap molasses.
For large garden, use bushel Of
bran to / pound of the arsenical mixed

half a gallon OF molasses. This Is
enough for treating or acres Of
cultivated crops.
After the mash has stood for several
hours, scatter it in Jumps the size
the injury is beginning to appear and
about the bases of the plants set out.
Apply late in the day so as to place
the poison about the plants before
night, which is the time when cut
worms are active. Apply second or
third time If necessary.
1t Is advisable to keep young chill
dren, live stock, and chickens away
from this bait.
Clean cultural methods and crop
rotation are advisable, as are also
deep fall blowing and disking, TO
prevent occurrences OF cutworm at
tacks. Experienced growers become
expert in detecting cutworms and re-
move them by hand. This often can
be done with profit on small patches.

Mrs. Wilson attributes his fine health
toEagle Brand, on which he was raised.
Mrs. Wilson was an Eagle Brand baby
too, so of course she brought up her
little son on il. This is one of the
thousands of cases where Eagle Brand
has been the accepted baby food for
severalgenerationsin the same family.
In some cases grandmother, mother,
and child were all reared on it. For
Eagle Brand has been the standard
for sixty-four years.
No thoughtful mother would expert

pure milk and pure sugar combined.
