rooster or a hen. And, at this
point, that is an important ques-
tion.
The wood tick, I am told, is
the insect version of a flying
saucer. That is why he can ap-
pear on you so suddenly. There
are no ticks. then you feel
something and look down to find
tick crawling up your arm.
According to a forester friend
of mine, the tick sails through
the air, much like saucer or a
pie plate that is thrown horizon
tally. He can leave a leaf and
sail right onto a person stand
ing nearby.
We haven't had many ticks so
far this year, but they seem to
be increasing now with the heat
and dry weather. A walk
through the woods usually will
turn up a dozen or so.
They seem to prefer dogs, al
though I have found them on
the cows and the horse. If it
were not for the fact that an
occasional one may carry Rocky
Mountain spotted fever,
wouldn't mind them so much.
The trouble is you keep think
inng you have them, whether
you do or not.

Capt. William C. Ball, a re-
tired Navy officer who lives at
4617 Cheltenham drive, Bethes-
da, tells me I am wrong in think
inng that a praying mantis is
the only insect that can turn its
head.
The dragon fly, sometimes
called the mosquito hawk, also
can move his head, writes Capt.
Ball. I learned this, he said,
by observing the mosquito hawk
while on duty IN New Orleans.

Spraying Cuts Losses
From Tomato BIiqhts

Spraying tomato plants with
copper fungicides, or organic
compounds such as zineb, man
cate or captain, is the best in
surance against crop losses from
common leaf blight and fruit
rot diseases.
Pathologists advise gardeners
not to wait until they see disease
symptoms to begin spraying.
Spraying is a preventive-not a
cure.
Plants need spraying about 80
days after the first blossoms ap-
pear, and every seven to 10 days
after that. In long periods of
wet weather they will need more
frequent treatment.
Sprays are usually more effec-
tive than dustS. They stick to
plants better.

Strawberry Runners
Should Be Spaced

Proper spacing Of new straw
berry runners is an important
factor in production of high
quality fruit, according to hor-
ticulturists.
The easiest and most econom-
ical way to handle the new run
ner plants, which are now be-
ginning to appear, is to let them
root as they will until late Au-
gust. Cultivation at the side of
the rows will keep the runners
from spreading out of the rows
and into the middles. Plants
that become too thick may be
dug out.
To get even distribution OF
plants in row it is often de-
slrable to train the new runners
by moving them with a hoe to
the space where the plants are
needed. Where needed, a small
clod or stone just back of the
tip will keep it in place until
rooted.
The best way to distribute the
runners is to train them in all
directions, SO that the mother
plant is surrounded by new
growth,

Life in the Country
Neighbor Starts Study to Determine
How Busy Is Hen With One Chick

George Gerling, who owns the
five acres adjoining our place, is
making a study to learn how busy
a hen is with only one chick.
George became a bantam
friend" this summer. He sent
out to Iowa for a trio of rose
comb bantamS-a rooster and
two hens. When he had collected
IL eggs, and there was no sign
OF the maternal instinct devel-
oping in his hens, we got the eggs
to set under one of our more adj
vanced bantams.
Meanwhile. George lost his
rooster and one of the hens, so
was counting on a good hatch
from us.
But as luck would have it, only
one egg Matched. A single little
black dot in nest Of white eggs.
We delivered the chick and the
hen, and have been getting daily
bulletins. Both hen and chick
are fine. but George doesn't know
yet whether the chick will be a
