Freedom From Weed
Pests Is Difficult
Prevent Seed Formation by
Moving and Spraying.

Eternal vigilance is the price Of
freedom from perennial weed pests,
according to Charles F. Rogers, former
assistant botanist and deputy state
entomologist at the Colorado Agrfcul-
tural college, who is the author Of a
bulletin on Canada Thistle and Rus
sian Knapweed and Their Control"
Copies of this publication may be
obtained by those interested by writ
ing to the Colorado Experiment sta
ton at the college.
Canada thistle and Russian KNAPP
weed, two of the worst weeds known
to agriculture, are found associated
with all crops and almost every kind
of soil, and in every agricultural region
of Colorado" the bulletin states.
"The best way to keep any peren-
NAL weed out Of locality Is to use
clean seed, to clean all farm machine
ry before it leaves the place where it
has been used, and to prevent flower
ing and seed production.
proper control measures for per-
ennial weeds should consist of the pre-
vention of seed formation by moving
and spraying, the burning of moved
weeds, separate, clean cultivation of
infestations, clean fallow at intervals,
crop rotation and smother crops"

Dusts Prove Satisfactory.
Sweet Potato Diseases
Prevented or Checked

A combination Of several practices
for disease prevention is necessary in
controlling sweet potato diseases. any
one of which, if omitted, will fail in
securing the desired results. For the
best, control of wilt the seed should
have been hand selected in the field
last fall. The use of certified seed is
equally good. Treat all the seed be-
fore bedding. Treated seed should
be placed in new hot beds. Old beds
are "hot beds" Of diseases. New sand
and new or sterilized lumber should
be used for hot beds. When the plants
are pulled and ready for transplanting
they should be set in fields that have
not been in sweet potatoes for five
to seven years. Unless all these steps
are followed, one or several of the
common diseases may be present.

Kill Perennial Plants
During Summer Season

July and August are the best
months to kill perennial plants. There
is no set day that will give better re-
suits than another.
The reason that this season of the
year is most effective in killing plants
is because the plant has exhausted
it's supply of food from its roots and
in these late summer months is manu-
featuring food on which to live the
following winter. If anything hap
pens to prevent normal food storage,
which is made in leaves and is trans
ferred to the roots, the plant will have
a hard time living over the next win
ter. This applies to perennial weeds
as we'll as trees.

Poison Bran Controls
CutWorms in Garder.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Seeding tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce
and melons are frequently cut off near
the ground by cutworms, especially in
the spring and early summer, says
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. A cutworm is the young or
caterpillar of a night-fying moth.
The moth lays its eggs upon plants or
other objects and in some cases d.
rectly upon the ground and the eggs
hatch into cutworms.
The commoner cutworms are stout,
soft-bodied, smooth or nearly smooth,
and cylindrical, varying in color from
gray to brown or nearly black and
sometimes spotted or marked with
stripes. Cutworms ordinarily work at
night, but often feed on dark, cloudy
days. Many kinds of cutworms go
through the winter in the soil and
begin work again early in the spring.
Not only vegetable crops are attacked,
but also wide variety of ornamental
plants and field crops may be severely
damaged.
Cutworms may be gotten rid of
readily by using poisoned-bran bait
made up of one peck Cor five pounds)
of dry bran, one-fourth pound white
arsenic or paris green, one pint strip
or molasses and three or four quarts
Of water.

Aphids Big Limiting
Factors in Production

Aphids in the garden are limiting
factors in the production of good vege-
tables. They are on the radishes, tur-
nips, spinach, and other plants. The
adults are about One-siXteenth inch
long and vary in color from green to
red to black to mottled. The color
depends on which plant they are feed
ing. Ordinarily the aphids are called
plant lice. Do not wait till the plants
are damaged beyond repair to look
for the bug that is doing the injury.
Treat plants infested with aphids with
nicotine dust containing about Z per
cent nicotine sulphate or per cent
free nicotine. The dust should be ap-
piled thoroughly with a good busting
machine.

Agricultural Hints

''s''.'':'":'''''*'"''''S
In dry season paper mulch gener-
ally increases yield.
A farm without trees is like dog
without fleas; there is something
lacking.
Cost per hour, with both tractors
and horses, depends to a large extent
upon the total hours work performed
in year.
Planting soy beans too deep delays
their coming up and may permit a
crust to form on the soil. One inch
in a good seed bed is deep enough.
To get rid of mustard not only
must all the mustard plants be killed
and prevented from producing seed
but the seeds in the soil must be de-
strOyed also.
North Dakota has produced a new
Golden Bantam hybrid corn, Golden
Sunshine, reputed to be extra early,
a week to ten days earlier than
Golden Bantam.
The pie plant and asparagus have
good food value and besides are in
deed health giving materials. Some
folks say that these two vegetables
are better than medicine.
An application of poison bran mash
the very first warm evening will aid
in the control of cutworms in the gar
den and in the field. If alfalfa fields
have not been inspected for this pest
it is a wise thing to do.
Screw worms are serious pest and
one farmers should try to destroy.
Immediate destruction of dead ami
mails is the best way to kill them.
BY building a bonfire over the carcass
with wood and a can of oil. maggots
of the screw worm fly can be de-
stroyed.

Onion Maggot Injuries
Garden Crop All Year

There is little bug that does much
injury to onions early in the spring
and continues to work in the garden
all the year. 1t is the onion maggot.
1t is footless, nearly white in color,
and smooth. 1t feeds on the onion and
when full grown leaves the onions to
change to small fly. The fly is about
the size of the common house fly. The
fly lays eggs on the onion, and the
eggs hatch into more maggots. The
best remedy is to spray the young
plants with bordeaux-oil emulsion.
The commercial oil emulsion may be
used at the rate of III gallons oil
emulsion to so gallons bordeaux. Spray
the plants thoroughly about once each
week for five or six weeks.

Fighting Quack Grass
Most WeariSOme Task

Fighting quack grass is about as
mean a job as any that exists on
American farms. Experience has
proved that it is almost impossible
to eradicate the grass completely,
once it gets start and extends it's
rootstocks in the fields. and that or
binary cultivation is just about as
bad as leaving the weed alone.
The ideal weather for killing quack
grass is hot days and cool nights, with
just enough moisture in the soil to
keep the grass growing. In midsum-
mer. say in July, when the grass be-
comes sod bound and the plants are in
bloom, the roots accordingly are weak.

Grades for Honey

For a long time liquid honey has
been sold on the market on a basis
of grade. The lighter colored honeys,
such as that coming from white clover,
have commanded the highest price and
the darker grades, such as that made
from buckwheat, brought the lowest
price. Until very recently. there was
no reliable method of determining the
actual color grade. Those buying and
selling honey depended upon their ex-
periences and judgment.

Early Aquatic Sports

In IT'S an Englishman named
Thomas Doggett instituted boat races
among the fishermen on the Thames.
r The first English regatta Of which
we have evidence took place on the
Thames off Raleigh gardens in 1775.
This was modelled on the Venetian
regatta. The first race in the United
States occurred in 1911 between two
barges, the Knickerbocker of New
York and the Invincible of Long Is
land, the former being the winner.

Harsh Colonial Rule

Whipping was one of the most COM
mon of punishments and severe
one, in Colonial times. Men were
whipped for all sorts of offenses. In
1913 a man was severely whipped
in Salem for sleeping during the min
isters sermon and for taking pass
at the man who woke him up. An
other man was whipped for travel
ing unnecessarily on the Sabbath.

However, many were small boats and

Growers Protect
Against Thrips
Tiny Insects Are Hard to
Control Once They Get
Good Foothold.

Cucumber growers have recently
complained Of curling of the leaves
accompanied by whitish spots of vary
ing size. This damage is caused by
thrips, minute sucking insects, says
the Cornell university experiment sta
ton, and growers should take care to
control them before they gain foot
hold.
Mistaken for Fungus.
Thrips are frequently mistaken for
| fungus growths because the insects are
so small. They are usually found on
the under sides of leaves. Leaves so
damaged curl as If injured by aphids,
but the injury differs in possessing
| characteristic white spots.
A satisfactory remedy for thrips If
| applied as soon as the injury Is de-
tected is: One-half pint of nicotine
sulphate containing 40 per cent free
nicotine; three pounds of laundry soap
dissolved in water, and enough water
to make fifty gallons Of the mixture.
This mixture should be applied with
f.! pump which has considerable pressure.
Care should be taken to spray the I'M
der sides of the leaves for only when
reached by the spray are the insects
killed.
Dusts Prove Satisfactory.
Dusts containing per cent of free
nicotine have proved satisfactory when
applied on warm days when little wind
is blowing. Such dust must be applied
with a buster and not merely shaken
over the plants in order to be effective.
The plants must be enveloped in
dust cloud. The Cornell experiment
station has received word also of con-
| siderable damage in other states.
