Home o w tiers Hint gardeners troubled with earwigs should begin control measures without delay. Large numbers of young earwigs can now be found around walks, un der stones, and debris in the yard ur mound the garden, according to J. Kolaiid Parker, county agricul tural agent. To .keep down Infesta tion, young earwigs should be poi soned before they reach sufficient size, to climb into shrubs, flowers und vegetable plants. A sutislaciory poison bait for ftrwlgH consists. of VI lb.", bran, I pound sodium flnocilicaie (or so lium fluoridei, and 1 quart of fish oil. The bran and sodium fluocili- :aie, or sodium fluoride, whichever Is used, should he thoroughly mlx- I together, then add fish oil slow ly and thoroughly mix. It is best to keep the mixed bait in a metal container as paper bags, icks, or wooden containers will ab ih much of the oil from the bait. The bait should be placed In small piles about the foundations if buildings, along walks, around shrubbery, or w herever earw igs are lound. No more lhail a small pinch a heaping teaspoon full should he spread in" any one place. Per sons using the above formula for killing earwigs should take care to see that the poison bait is kept away Horn children, dogs. cats, poultry and other livestock. The poison is only effective it it can be kept dry. After rains new bail should he placed if the earwigs are giving trouble. Anyone desiring- printed instruc tions for making or using of poison earwig bait (jtn secure a copy by calling at the county agent's office or w riling. im TURKEYS TURN IN TWOFOLD PROFITS MiCOOK.
