Unless
you
c a n answer a

“yes” to each of
those three questions, better take
a good look at tips given in this
column. They’ll help you reach
pastry making perfection if you
put the hints into practice.
Pie is a dessert to have at any
luncheon or dinner, whether light
or heavy. It might be a rich apple
pie, topped with scoops of ice
cream if the meal itself has been
shy on calories.
Pies may be baked or chilled.
Their crust may be pastry or
crumb. Their fillings may be fruit,
berries, juice or eggs or combina
tions of these, so you see how much
variety pie can give your meals.
If you have some especially
bright and lovely berries or fruit,
don’t hide them under a top crust.
Place a lattice crust or crumb top
ping or a lacy fluting of whipped
cream on the pie, and let everyone
enjoy the handsome looks of the
pie.

of this insecticide lasts about two
days.
Toxaphene or chlorinated cam-
phene can be used as a dust, as a
wettable powder or as an emulsion.
The emulsion usually lasts longer.
Toxaphene is available in 10 or 20
per cent dusts. It gives good results
at the rate of 30 pounds of 10 per
cent dust per acre. As an emulsion,
it should be used at the rate of one

and a half or three pounds against
large hoppers. Toxaphene is effec
tive for about 10 days.
If the hoppers are confined to the
field you want to treat, you can
do a good job with benzene hexa-
chloride. But if the pests are mov
ing into your field from the outside,
you’ll be wise to use the longer
lasting chlordane or toxaphene.

Water Soluble Chemical
Effective on Quack Grass
Quack grass can be killed with a
water soluble chemical, according
to R. F. Carlson, Michigan state
college horticulturist. Tests have
proved that quack grass can be
controlled through use of a chem
ical commonly known as TCA.
Quack grass Is one of the great
est nuisances on the farm and In
the garden, and TCA is the best
chemical available now for its con
trol, Carlson said.
Those massive tread bars take a bigger bite, a better hold—
and T H A T ’S NOT ALL. Because they’re curved for self,
cleaning, they keep right on pulling while other tires only
clog and spin.
And here’s another big feature. Every inch of tread-har
length does its share of the pulling because the low-pressure
body design puts ALL of the tread in FULL ground contact
for a FULL TRACTION BITE. Because it’s patented, this
tire gives you many advantages which no other tire has. Let «

facts to your satisfaction.
