The screening of seed beds of rad- ishes and cabbages has come into quite general use throughout the county and is very effective in pro- tecting the seedlings. Many are hav- ing trouble after the plants arc trans planted. To them the following sug gestion from Prof. A. G. B. Piquet may be of help. "The maggot may be controlled by the "poison bait spray” which is designed to destroy the fly that lays the maggot eggs. This spray consists of one gallon of water, one pint of black New Orleans molasses, and about 5 granes of sodium arsen ite. The latter is dissolved in boiling water and the malasses added and thoroly mixed. The poison bait is then sprayed in coarse draps about the field or, in the absence of a spray outfit, it can be applied with a whisk broom. No attempt is made to cover the plants, but rather to place large drops where the fly will readily feed on them and die before lying the eggs. Applied once a week or twice during rainy time the ravages of the maggot will be largely controlled.” Get after the Potatoe Field Now Many inquiries have been coming in regarding the combating of potato blight, Instructions for this were printed some time ago but are of enough importance to stand repeat- ing. When about six inches high the vines should be sprayed with Bor deaux Mixture and thereafter every ten days until six or eight applica tions have been made. If you wait until the blight can be seen it is too late to do much good. The Bordeaux Mixture is made as follows: Slack 5 lbs. quick lime and make up to 25 gallons with water. Dissolve 5 pounds blue stone (copper sulfate) in 25 gallons of water. Keep the two solutions separate until ready for use, then mix in equal parts stirring them briskly. The stock solution will keep indefinitely, but after mixing it should be used im mediately. Apply with a spray outfit that will throw a fine mist and be careful to thoroughly cover the fo liage, especially that near the ground. If insects appear to be bothering the vines also, a little Paris Green or arsenic added to the spray will get them. There are two insects which commonly attack the potatoe vines. One is the Colorado Potato Beetle which, so far as I know, has not been found in this county. The other is the Flea-Beetle, a small dark colored jumping beetle that riddles the leaves with holes. The blight is entirely independent from any insect attacks, as it is caused by a small fungus plant growth on the same order as bread mold, but the attacks of the insects usually occur about the same time. Bordeaux acts as a repellent to the insecfi'^nl if a little arsenic is added, will kill them. "It’s Awful Like Ye.” Sandy had been photographed and as he was looking intently . at - - his - “pic- ter" Tam McHhersan came c lam McPhersan along. ’What that ye hiv theer?” he asked.

Thus one jovial frequenter of gutter addressed a friend he had seen for weeks. "Nah, I’m not out o’ work. I’m gaged at present at a domino factory.’ "Wot branch?” pursued the inter- rogater. “D’you make the boxes or the dominoes or what, Matty?” “I make the spots on ’em.” “An’ w’y ain’t you makin spots on ’em terday, then?” ’ Why,” replied the other, "I’ve got a ’oliday terday. They are making double blanks.” Entered the Ministry. Dr. Elijah E. Hoss, the Methodist bishop, said at a dinner in Muskogee; “'lhe Methodist minister is noted all over the world for his love of chicken. "Once, when I was stationed in Knoxville, 1 wanted a pair of chick ens for our Sunday dinner, and called on a suburban farmer’s whose fame as a chicken raiser remarkable. “There had been a Methodist con- fercnce in Knoxville that week, and when I told the farmer’s wife the na ture of my errand she shook her head ‘I'm sorry Dr. Hoss,” she said “but all my chickens have already entered the ministry.” Does it Pay to Advertise? ------o The little daughter had been pray ing each evening at bedtime for a baby sister. The other morning her mother, reading the paper, exclaimed: ”1 see Mrs. Smith has a little dau ghter." "How do you know’ that,” asked the child. “I read it in the paper,” answered the mother. "Read it to me,” said the daughter. The mother read, "Born, on March —, to Mr. and Mrs. ------ Smith a daughter." The child thought a moment, then said: “I know what I’m going to do.

The carriage does not bob up and down when the shift is made to v rite capitals. Why? Because the type is shifted—not the carriage.
