The state agricultural experiment station sends out the folloglng bulle tin on maggots: "There has been no more trouble some Insect affecting garden crops than the root maggot this past year. Uhnfortunately there Is no treatment that will Insure complete success. It Is suggested that the ground where the plants were affected be thorough ly cultivated during the fall to destroy the grubs of this maggot In the ground where they stay to pass the winter. The lsect'that occasions this trouble resembles closely the com mon house fly, but Is somewhat smaller. In some districts it Is the commonest fly to be found In bouses. Treatment of the soil with wood ashes, lime, etc., are usually not very successful and hardly pay for the trouble to apply them. Some success has been had by treating the soil with tobacco or kerosene emulsion early in the spring. The object of this Is to deter the flies from laying their eggs in the protected places. Growing plants undermusllo cover early In the season will, of course, keep the files away nd in some dis tricts Is extensively practiced. Cab bage can be protected by placing three-Inch disc of Ur paper as col lar around their stems at the time of getting out. Spraying the -soil about the plants several times during the early summer with carbolated HmeU perhaps the best remedy. This spray can be made by adding an ounce of crude carbolic acid to ten gallons of milk of lime. f wmm ma j. afflM laaaiho Tata's Our Annual Pre-inventory Sale of Home Furnishings Begins Today Big reductions on every article in our immense stock, excepting only a few contract goods Just a few of the many exceptional values to be found on our floors during the sale.
