ARSENICALS FOR
KILLING WORMS
Annual Loss From Cabbage Pest
Conservatively Estimated
at $1,300,000.
NOT DIFFICULT TO CONTROL
Arsenate of Lead and Paris Green Are
Preferable to Other Poisons
Number of Sprayings Depends
on Conditions.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment ot Agriculture.)
Arscnlcals are being genornlly used
to control the cabbage worm. There
are now few Instances of the total de
struction of crops of cabbages as was
formerly often tho case. Neverthe
less, a conservative estimate would
place tho present unnual loss from tills
pest to cubbage alum. not Including
cauliflower and other related crops
at si.aoo.ooo,
of the entire 1
or one-tenth the value
crop.
"H'ha cabbngo worm Is not difficult
to control,' and It should he borne In
mind thnt most other cabbage posts,
more often present than riot, will be
controlled by the same methods.
Poisons Preferred.
Repeated experiments hnvo shown
that arsenate of lend nnd parts green
are preferable to other arsenlculs In
common use. If pnrls green Is used,
It may bo applied either wet or dry,
preferably, however, as a spray, at the
rate of one pound to CO gallons of wa
ter. The plants should be free from
Insect attack when they are set out
and should lie sprayed a few days later
to make sure thnt tho poison reaches
the young caterpillars before they have
burrowed far Into the heads. Other
applications should follow as Inspec
tion of plants shows thut they are nec
essary. These applications of arscnlcals can
be made with absolute safety even af
ter the lieads are formed, ns the" poison
disappears from plants almost com
pletely within two to three weeks af
ter application, and even earlier In
event of repeated or lienvy rainfall.
Increased Cost
Scarcity of paris green has Increased
tho cost. Arsenate of lead has been
rapidly superseding paris green nnd
other arsenlrnls ns an inRoctio'd" nnd

Planted In Thousands of Communi
ties This Year.,
has not Increased proportionately In
price. For many reasons It is pre
ferable. It serves the same purpose as paris
green nnd Is applied In the same mnn
ner. It Is sold both In paste and In
dry powder form. Two pounds of dry
arsenate to 50 gallons of water or
bordeaux mixture will make a solu
tion of Hufllclont strength to destroy
cabbage worms nnd similar Insects.
The paste form must be tised at double
strength, four pounds to 50 gallons of
water.
The number of sprayings depends on
local and sensonnl conditions. Some
times a single spraying will suffice, but
usually two or three are necessary.
The adhesiveness of the sprny mate
rial Is promoted by the addition of
nbout the same amount by weight of
resin tlsii oil soap as of tho arsenical
used.
DIG UP OLD RHUBARB STALKS
Divide Roots Into Pieces of Two or
Three Eyes Each and Start
Entirely New Patch.
After rhubnrb has been" planted
four or live years the stalks become so
thick that they are too small to sell
well. It Is then best to dig up tho
rootH and divide Into pieces of two
or three eyes ouch; which Is enough
for one hill, and start a new pnteh,
Another good way Is to dig up all tho
hill but n little corner which Is left
undisturbed, then (111 the hole from
which the roots were taken with well
rotted munure and cover that with

THINNING IMPROVES
' VALUABLE WOODLAND
Lack of Proper Treatment Is
Cause of Much Loss.
Farmer Should Take Steps to Glvo
Trees Sufficient Light and Soli
Moisture for Them to Thrlva
and Become Profitable.
Lack of proper thinning and cutting
Is a common, cause of woodlands be
ing unprofitable, according to n recent
bulletin entitled, "Making Woodland!!
Profitable In the Southern States," Is
sued by tho United States department
of agriculture. Nature usually over
crowds trees In n given spuce, says
this publication, nnd so steps should
bo taken to give them sufficient light
and soil moisture to thrive nnd become
profitable.
By properly controlling the number
of trees on a tract It Is possible to In
crease their rate of grqwth nnd cventu
ally their size. Kxcept for the produc
tion of cordwood, a few large trees on
a given area are usually more desira
ble than many small ones. If possible,
valuable kinds, of wood should be
grown lu preference to common woods
which bring lower prices. Woodlnnds

atlve Thinning.
In this country, ns a rule, contain
many crooked, forked and diseased
trees which should bo replaced by
straight, sound ones. Soon after n
cutting troes show nn Increased growth
and the whole woodland rapidly In
creases In value by the elimination of
Inferior trees.
With nn nctlve market for cordwood
and for fence posts, poles nnd lumber,
there Is every Inducement to clear out
tho inferior trees diseased, dying,
crooked anu less valuable kinds. Illgli'
cutting also includes the removal of
large, sound trees whose growth I
slow because they are nnrlng or hnvp
reached maturity. The cutting should
lie done only at a time of favorable
market conditions or when building or
other timber Is needed on the fnrm.

CONTROL OF SOIL DISEASES
Next to Seed Treatment Rotation Is
Best Way to Destroy Wilt and
Rot Spores.
With the possible exception of seea
treatment, there Is no form practice,
which, from the plant disease point of
vlew( gives greater returns on the in
vestment than crop rotation, Is the
assertion of Prof. .7. O. I.ench of tho
Colorado Agricultural college. There
are a great many plant diseases such
as wilts and root rots for which no
specific remedy is known and which
can be held In check only by the com
bined prnctlces of seed -selection, seed
treatment, and crop rotation. These
discuses become worse and worse each
year the crop Is grown In the same
soil, and ench one taking their annual
toll accounts for considerable loss to
the farmer.
A system of crop rotation entails nl.
most no expense other than n llttla
forethought nnd planning. The re
turns In dlsenso-free crops pay for
tills trouble many times over, iwt to
spenk of tho added gain in soil fer
tility. SILOS RAPIDLY INCREASING
Successful Farmers Have Learned
That Huge Receptacle Is Big
Asset on Any Farm.
m
Information gathered by the Penn
sylvania department of agriculture
sliows approximately 20 per cent, or
4.1,057 farmers In the state with silos,
while the number u yenr ago was es
timated at 32.000. Wide awake and
successful farmers have learned thnt
a silo, when properly used is a val
uable asset on any farm. As farm
conditions Improve, the number of silos
naturally Increases.
SPACE BETWEEN FRUIT TREES
Apples Should Be Allowed at Least 30
Feet Each Plums Do Not Re
quire as Much.
Standard apple trees should be nl
lowed ut least 30 feet of space each
way; plums 20 feet; currants, goose
berries nnd grapes from ten to 12 feet;
red raspberries should be allowed tp
grow only In hedgerow not over nix
Inches wide nnd rows ton to 12 feet

DESIRABLE HENS TO RETAIN
On Most Farms Size of Flock Coult
Well Be Increased Range Is
Very Important.
The average farmer might find l
desirable to Increase thq size of tin
Hock of hens. While most farmer!
have little time to devote to poultrj
raising, yet their families may attent
to the fowls nnd see thnt they are wel
cared for and protected.
The usual "advice" to poultry rnlsen
to begin with a few hens Is sound. Bin
on most farms tho women ami girli
have had tho responsibility of the Hoc!
for years and most of them could wel
nfford to Increase the number of lay
Ing hens.
Mango Is very Importnnt for poultry
Hut range alone is not enough. Tin
fowls must have feed and shelter whet
they need them.
When one Is nbout to Increase tin
number of hens It Is well to see thai
those kept are worth keeping. Pool
hens are not an asset; they nro gen
erally n liability.

Why Exclusive Agencies
Cost More to Operate
A roofing dealer who has an exclusive
agency has no competition on his pri
vate brand.- As a result he can charge
a large profit if you'll buy.
In addition, he is usually a long distance
from his little manufacturer and must
invest more money to keep his stock up.
Now look at the Certain-teed way. Any
responsible dealer can sell Certain-teed.
Each dealer carries a small represen
tative stock. If he needs more he orders
from a nearby Certain-teed warehouse
or jobber. It usually takes only a day
or two to get it.
The result is small investment, small
storage cost, light insurance, and no
slow-moving articles.
Certain-teed Saves You Money
That's why Certain-teed dealers operate
at less expense. And it's also why
Certain-teed saves you money because
they can afford to sell at close margins
and there are enough of them to insure
you a fair deal.
Noyv let's see what you get when you
buy Certain-tecd Roofing.
It's roofing that has never been known
to wear out on the roof. It is guaran
teed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according to
i weight. ,It is weather-proof, fire
retarding and spark-proof.
There is nothing else you want from
roofing. And since you get this highest
quality roofing at a saving, it's the
logical buy.
Any responsible dealer can get Certain
teed for you quickly from a nearby
Certain-teed warehouse or jobber. He
gets it when he wants it and he gets
what he wants. He can afford to sell
you at a fair price.
k - Certain-teed Products Corporation

Beware of the dealer who tells you he
has Certain-teed, but tries to sell you
a private brand. He probably wants
a bigger profit.
