The Raddish and Cabbage
Maggot.
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.

Matey’s Holiday.
"Alloa, Maty! And wher
orf to? Not out o’ work I ’opes?
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?

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.

Printing Point Does Not
In an L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter
the point on the paper which is to receive the
type impression is stationary at the instant the
type hits. 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.
The only movement of the carriage Is back and
forth on its closely adjusted ball bearing runways—
and this does not take place while the print is being
made. There is no lifting of the carriage.
This is one reason why L C. Smith & Bros, type­
writing is free from blurs and every letter in the right
place.
