To Get Rid of Ants
To rid your garden of ants effectu-
ally you must first find the location of
4he neats They can then be easily
destroyed by benaoln gasoline bisul-
phide of carbon or boiling water
The large ants which sometimes
make their nnsts above the surface of
the grass on the lawn should be de-
stroyed by bisulphide of carbon Punch
a number of holes la the neats and
pour a teaspoonful of carbon do'
each bole Throw a dark blanket over
the holes for a few moments then re-
move It and explode the carbon by
means of a light at the end of a pole
The slight explosions drtvs the fumes
down through the underground tun-
nels and destroy the ants
Care ef Cucumbers
Cucumbers for pickling may be
planted as late as the middle of July
Bordeaux mixture three ounces to
gallon of water Is an effective remedy
for the yellow-striped beetle which
attacks cucumbers melons and squash
es In the early summer and Is also the
preventive (or blight
If you have only a few vines the
bugs may be brushed Into a shallow
pan and at once transferred to a pall
of water containing a tablespoonful
of kerosene which finishes them This
can only be done very early In the
morning or after sundown They are
very active during sunshine but semi-
dormant In the early hours of the day
Lay In heed
Lay la a supply of seed early for
sowing after such empa as rye and
eowpeas la the corn at the last culti-
vation Rye Is especially good on corn
land Inclined to wash as the plants aid
greatly In bolding the soil These
crops will Improve the nature of the
soli and will ajford some good pasture
after the corn Is harvested
CREATE LOVE FOR THE FARI
Farmers’ Co-Operative Demonstration
Work Hae Solved Problem of
i Agricultural Ufa
(By & A KNAPP)
One of the greatest problems before
the American people has been bow to
Interest In rural life and attach to
the farm the young man who has ac-
quired a capacity for leadership The
loss of "rural leaders by emigration t
the city has been one of the most
serious retrogressive factors In our
whole civilisation The Farmers' Co-
operative demonstration work has
solved the problem These young
men left the farm because they were
repelled by the hardships excessive
toll and meager gains on the farm
and were allured by a seemingly
greater opportunity to acquire wealth
Influence and position In the city The
demonstration work undertakes to
create In the schoolboy a love of the
farm and a new hope by abowlng the
wonderful possibilities of the soil
when properly managed and the ease
with which wealth and distinction are
achieved In rural life when science
and art Join bands This is worked
cut by the co-operation of the demon-
stration workers the county super-
intendent of public Instruction and
the teachers
The superintendent and teachers
organize the schoolboys over ten years
of age Into clubs the demonstration
work furnishes tiie plan of organism
tion and the Instructions (which the
boys agree to observe) the respective
parents furnish land teams and Im-
plements the merchants and bankers
provide the prizes and the local pa-
pers give the publicity Each boy
must personally work one acre under
the same regulations governing all
other contestants The result of 300
to 400 boys entering such a contest
In a county arouses Intense Interest
The boy learns the beet way to raise
corn or cotton and his appreciation
of the farm is greatly enhanced
The boys In the corn contest of one
county In Mississippi last year aver-
aged a production of 74 bushels of
corn per acre while the farmers aver-
aged less than 20 In South Carolina
one boy raised 152 bushels on a
measured acre while the state aver-
age was 16
There la one sure way of preventing
large weeds from growing In tha gar-
den — kill all the small ones
White onions are very much better
keepers than the yellow variety al-
though the latter grow larger
The beat garden-seed are not al-
ways found In the packages on which
are found the prettiest pictures
Keep the cultivator and the hoe go-
ing In the sweet corn patch Not
weed should be allowed to grow In It
While It coats from fS to til to
grow an acre of corn It costa less
than four dollars to grow and save an
acre of hay
It Is best to sow grass seed with
drill on light sandy or sandy loam
oils as it Is lets likely to dry out in
dry seasons
Arsenate of lead will not destroy the
black aquash-bug and other sucking
Insects They must be picked off by
hand and aquasbed
The extensive root systems of grass
crops especially clovers open up the
subsoil Increase the supply of humua
and are of great value to the soil
Coalaihes contain no fertilizing
value and our experience la that they
only serve to pack the soil Instead of
making It friable Wood ashes are dif-
ferent The average wheat yield of Amer-
ica la only about 14 bushel to the acre
while In England the land that haa
been fanned for hundreds of years
averages about 20 bushels
In the mild climates lettuce may be
set out In the fall In beds protected
by glass or cloth and this delicious
vegetable may be had through most
of the winter months
If other remedies fall spray the cucumber-vines
with arsenate of lead
It destroys tbs yellow-striped beetle
which la the most dangerous enemy of
the cucumber and requires the most
vigilant watching
Value of Drainage
Drainage prevents loss of crops and
labor from stagnant water permits air
to circulate more freely through the
aotl carrying with It fertilising prop-
erties making a warmer soil that can
be cultivated early for dry soil works
easier than wet roots go down deeper
In It and get a greater supply of plant
food and more moisture in n dry sea-
son Drainage also prevents baking and
cracking
Growing Cultivated Crop
Cultivated crops Include corn pota-
toes mangles and all root crops that
are planted In rows and cultivated
during growth Such crops have been
regarded as beneficial to soil fertility
but Inveatlgatlon at tbs experiment
stations shows that continuous growth
of cultivated crops depletes the soil
more rapidly than does the growing ef
grain continuously
Keep Up Garden Notes
Do not neglect to keep up with your
notee on the garden The housewife
should have the record book to tke
pantry and note when the first vege-
tables are used Thla Is the only cor-
rect way to test varieties and becoms
familiar with the qualities of each
It roqulres little time to do this yet It
give you much valuable Information
SHE RECOGNIZED THE V0l6E
And From Remark Made Alee Knew
the Party Was Not En-
gaged In Prayer
Confidential friends of Louis B
Shields are telling this story about
that eminent Republican: A state
convention at Columbus had just ad-
journed and the Cuyahoga county
delegatea were all back home when
somebody suggested friendly game
of poker The game waa going along
right merrily at three a m
At that hour an officious attendant
called up Mr Shields' residence which
happened to be almost next door
“This Is long distance said the
servant with no warrant of authority
whatever "We are all here In Co-
lumbus and can't get home until morn-
ing" That’s all right’’ came hack the
reply “but If that voice I bear In the
apartment house next door shying
that's good' Isn't Mr Shields’ then 1
can't recognize a voice when I hear It
at night"
And that Is the end of the story for
the voice saying “that'a good" was
indeed that of Mr Shields and it waa
to near home so the narrator relates
that there waa no use In offering a
denial— -Cleveland Leader

Autoing and Optica
Ts not auto driving terribly hard
on the eyes?" we asked
'Well 1 guess not" replied the
chauffeur withering ua with scorn
'Why before I got to runnln’ a car I
waa thlnkln' o' gettln' specks my eye-
sight was that poor I couldn't see the
contribution box In church until it waa
so near past me It was too late to dig
for any money But I hadn't been
rtfhnln' that wagon two days till I
oould see a policeman's little finger
stlckln' out from behind a tree (our
miles away 1 could even see which
way a copper's eyeballs were turned
If be was standln' In tbe shade three
miles off Hard on the eyes! Well
not much! It’s the best medicine for
weak eyes that was ever invented
don't you forget it"
The Stomach Hold
Col H N Renouf at the "Old
Guard" banquet at Delmonlco's em-
phasized the Importance to an army
of a good commissariat
"You have perhaps beard" he said
“of the company of privates that a
pntrotlc lady entertained one Me-
morial day to dinner
"It waa a good dinner and at its
end a pretty maid servant entered
with a superb dessert
" 'Dessert sergeant? she said to
the stalwart young soldier at the
bead of the table
" 'Desert T the sergeant answered
When 1 can -get eats like this for
nothin'? Nixie! Not me!’"
