Check Cucumber Beetle ,
by Using Dust Mixture

One Of the best methods of control
ling the cucumber beetle, according to
Carl ]. Drake, state entomologlst at
Iowa State college, is TO dust the
young plants with a mixture of one
part OF calcium arsenate and 20 parts
Of gypsum.
The dust can be applied with a
shaker made by punching holes in the
bottom Of a half=gallon tin can with
IN eight-penny nail. The first appli-
cation should be made Immediately
after the young plants break through
the ground. After that the plants
should be busted either early In the
morning or late in the evening from
two to three times per week and fol-
lowing rains.
Usually from 10 to IL applications
per season are all that are required,
although more are necessary In the
case OF exceptionally severe attacks
by the beetles. II these directions are
followed rather closely, there VIII be
no trouble in controlling the cucumber
beetle.

Increase in Wheat Yield

An Increase In yield of more than
$4,000 bushels of wheat without extra
labor was the reward Of farmers In
Union county, Oregon, following the
advice of the county extension agent
last winter in selecting the variety of
winter wheat to be planted. The
county agent had carried on an effect

wheat growers In the county to the

ton tests. AS a result, a number OF
farmers planted Hybrid 12S and OBJ
tained an average increase of 81
bushels rer acre over all other varie-
ties, according to reports to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. About 90 acres of the 1922
planting was certified for seed.

Weapons to Be Employed
Against Flies on Farm

II 1t is impossible to get rid OF the
breeding places of flies on the farm
the best protection to the animals
will be found In the use of repellants
or mixtures which when applied to the
animals will prevent the flies from at
lacking them, according to George
Dean, Kansas state entomologist.
He suggests the possibility Of de-
stroying the breeding places of the
horn fly, which is found In clusters
on the shoulders, back and tanks of
cattle In pasture, by scattering the
animal droppings. Old rotting straw
piles are the breeding places Of the
stable or biting fly. and Professor
Dean suggests the ACCESSIBILITY, IL pos
sible, OF cleaning up or doing away
with them.

Grit Is Most Essential
to Health of Hen Flock

Grit is essential to the health of
fowls and to economy in feeding. Grit
takes the place Of teeth In preparing
the feed for further digestion and Is
required for the proper preparation
of feed In the gizzard. When the feed
Is not properly taken care of in this
organ al undue strain is thrown on
the fowls system. often resulting IN
disease. and also allowing much of the
nutriment to pass through the birds
body without being absorbed. In ev-
cry pen or yard a box Of grit should
be kept. Recent investigators have
asserted that grit is part Of the neces-
sary feed, giving the fowls strong
bones and a bright plumage.

Change in Milk
Checks LAYING of Flock

Many people who feed milk in some
form to their laying flock regularly
have been obliged TO learn one thing
about the feeding. A sudden change
from sweet milk one day TO sour the
next. or back again, causes digestive
troubles as a rule, and either checks
the laying of the flock or upsets the
feeding rati0ns so hat the mash or
grain feed varies from day to day.
Buttermilk, skinned milk. Soul or
curd or sweet milk are all desirable
feeds for chickens. but they should be
fairly regular feeds. or fed In small
amounts. II a change Is necessary.

This Information can only be OBJ

The making OF such a canvass Is a
task calling for conservatism and the
exercise OF good judgment, for the
