If you have not cleaned up the
poultry house and yards, do so with
out further delay. The house should
be whitewashed inside and out at
least once a year. One pint Of crude
; carbolic acid to one gallon Of white
wash will make a better dislnfectant.

Immediately kill and burn her. II
she is too valuable for such treat

low in the wake Of the boil weevil' in
all newly invaded territory, where
the gullible farmer Is easily per-
suaded to part with some hard-earn-
ed cash for patent brush, knocker,
liquid spray or what not, which rem
edy, the enterprising agent assures
him, will speedily rid his farm OF
Weevils.
"a deaf ear should be turned to all
such spielers. If the man who is SELL

turn the machine or poison over to
government authorities or to Glenn

be tested, and then, II IT WORKS.,
the fact will be broadcasted over the
land and his sales will be enormous.
So far the government. has tested,
year by year, many devices and poi
sons on the experimental farms in
Louisiana. Every device is given q
thorough trial, and so far hundreds
of remedies have been tried out
without success.
THE ONLY PARTIAL CONTROL
REMEDY which has given even fair
success is calcium arsenate poison
applied with the proper sort of gun
or duster, IN DUST FORM, under
proper conditions. None Of the liq-
uid sprays, including the patent"
sprays which are supposed to have
certain sticking or other qualities,
are recommended, for the govern
mont authorities maintain that these
HAVE NOT shown results where
tried.
1t seems foolish for farmers to
waste money on useless devices
which have been tried by men in the
government service, who are paid to
try all manner Of things in efforts to
control the boil weevil.
