The planting of the corn early will often enable .the gardener to mature an early crop before the severest work of the worms appears. Late corn _always suffers more than early _8weet corn. These are the more important pests which the gardener will meet in his spring and summer work, though they do not include anything like all of the immense number of garden insects. Many other forms will be found attack- ing the crop mentioned above, as well ds onions, celery, aspara- gus and other vegetables. :0.0 00 0 ©00000000000000000000000C0O0O00O ©0000000000000000000000000000000000 ©00000000000000000 RAISE MORE GRAIN. Practical Suggestions by Pennsylvania Official to Dairy Farmers. With milk bringing practically the same price that it did fifteen years ago and butter costing on an average 80 cents a pound to produce on the farm' under present conditions it is readily seen that the farmer who owns a herd of dairy cows, gets up at 4 o'clock in the morning to milk and has to haul it to his market or churn it into butter gets nothing out of his investment ex- cept what goes for the soll, says James Foust, dairy and food commissioner; in speaking of conditions in the state of Pennsylvania. These conditions are practically the same in many other states. What the farmer must do is to as- sume modern farming methods and raise twice as much grain and feed to an acre as he does now and then raise more dairy cows to keep his farm pro- ductive. The foreign farmer understands this, and by the production and use of fer tilizers produces from two to two and one-half times as much of anything from-the soil as the average American farmer. In 1911 statistics showed that Belgian farmers used 448 pounds to the acre, Germany 214 pounds, Great Britain 152 pounds and the United States 28 pounds. Yet that little twenty-eight pounds, adds Mr., Foust, meant the consumption of 6,800,970 tons in 1913, for which the American farmer paid $170,000,000, more than one-fourth of it going to foreign coun- tries. The assumption of the commis- gloner is that by intelligent dairying and other stocking of the farm this money might nearly all have been kept at home, to say nothing of adding to the outflow of luscious milk. Ordinary Whitewash. * This {s ‘made by slacking about ten pounds of quicklime with two gallons of water. The lime is placed in a pail and the water poured over it, after which the pail is covered with an old piece of carpet or cloth and allowed to stand about an hour. With an insufficient amount of wa- ter the lime is “scorched” and not con- verted into hydrate. On the other hand, too much water retards the slacking by lowering the heat. “Scorch- ed” lime is generally lumpy and transparent, hence the use of the prop- er amount of water for slacking and after addition of water to bring it to a brush consistency. - 8Seed Corn Tester Made at Home. The drawing shows a.good seed corn tester that is easy to make and very convenient. Take a two inch plank, four feet long and one foot wide, and in it bore holes one inch in diameter and one-quarter inch deep. Make ten holes 'crosswise of the plank. This makes it unnecessary to number every hoie. Place four grains from every ear in a hole until the tester is filled. Cover them with a cloth and place sawdust on top, molsten thoroughly and keep four or five days. It is best to have four inch'boards nailed around the edge of the tester to hold the cloth in place. This will accommodate about three bushels.—George Gross in Mis- souri Ruralist. Chicken Lice Preventive. Lice are a great annoyance to sitting hens and are one of the worst enemies of young chi‘cks. To prevent their get- ting a foothold dust the hen thorough- ly with some good lice powder before she 1s placed on the nest and once a week thereafter while she is sitting. The nesting material should be kept clean, and if the eggs become dirty they should be washed with lukewarm water. Purifies Poultry Water. Do not be afraid to use permanga- nate of potash in the drinking water for poultry whenever there is any sign of colds or any bowel disease: It will not injure the tiniest chick when used in the usual strength, which gives the water a light wine color, and its use may prevent infection by destroying any germs that may find their way into the water vessels.
