MIXING INSECTICIDES.
l Chomp Substitute, for Paris Green
Recommended by the Ohio.
Experiment Station.
Objections to Paris Green—1’ am
green is a good insecticide, but is
somewhat trouble-some to use in liquid
form as it does not dissolve readily.
and needs constant agitation to keep
it from settling. If allowed to settle
at all the distribution is not uniform,
and injury is likely to result to the
foliage of some plants, while the in-
sects on other plants escape. More-
over, it is unduly expensive, whether
used dry or in the form of a spray.
White arsenic, in as .Iol-uble form, cosrts
about one-third as much as Paris: green
and gives no trouble in the way of set-
tling.
How to Prepare the Arsenit-e of
Soda. —-Dislsolve two pounds of com-
mercial whit-e arsenic and four pounds
of carbonate of soda (washing soda)
in two gallons of water and use one
‘and one-half pints to a barrel of Bor-
deaux mixture (50 gallons). The easi-
est way to make the solution is to put
both the whit-e arsenic and carbonate
of soda in a gallon of boiling water
and keep boiling about 15 minutes, or
until a clear liquid is formed, and
then dilute to two gallons.
How Much to Use—One and one‘
half pints of this solution to each bar-
rel of Bordeaux mixture in sufficient
to use when spraying for potato blight
and potato bugs, for apple scab and
apple worms,
where a combination mixture for fungi
and insects is» required.
Merits of the Combination Mixture.
—Thlx$‘ combination has: been fully test-
ed at the Ohio experiment station and
found to be quite asI effective as the
Paris green and Bordeaux . mixture
combination, and for the reasons'giv'en
above is much to be preferred. This
arsenic and soda solution, or arslenit-e
of soda, is: more safely used in combi-
nation with Bordeaux mixture- than-
alone, as: when in combination it will
not injure the foiliage, but. alone it is
liable to burn the leaves. The same
objection hold-s good, however, with
reference to Paris green and London
purple. It is better, however, in al-
most every case, to use. the. combina-
tion mixture. as- fungi are nearly al-
ways present and unless they are kept
in check there is but little use for figh t-
ing insects—Bulletin Ohio Experiment
Station.
FOR ,SEEDING MELONS.
A Simple Homemade Device That
Does Better Work r1:11:11: Can Be
Done by Band.
___-— . .
For the past. two yearsl have used a
'homemad-e melon seeder that does
away with the backache, and does bet-
ter and’ faster work than can be done
by hand. The implement is shown in
the sketch. It has: two wheels about
seven inches in diameter, connected
with a reach on either sude, so that one
wheel follows In the track of the other.
Between the wheels is an upright tin
tube about three feet long. The top
of this tube is six or eight inches in
diameter, and the bottom tapers to one
and one-fourth inches. At its lower
end the. tubeopens into a plow-shaped
hollow shoe, which isndju-stable to any
desired depth. Two little sheet iron
MELON SEEDER.
wings follow the tube to cover the seed.
At opposite. points in one side of the
front wheel are two pins. Ataevery half
revolution of the wheel one ofathose
pins strikes the end of‘a spring and
presses: it forward, and then releases
it. The spring makes a snapping noise
to show when a seed'mustbe dropped.
As the seeder is pushed slowlyalong,
a boy stands erect and drops theseed
into the large end of the tube. There
is. a steady, distinct “tick, tick, tick."
that tells how fast to drop the seed.
It takes two to run the seeder, but. it-
both drops and covers. Any small boy
can do the dropping: and it matters
not if the wind blows; the seed goes
into exactly the right place. With a
seven-inch wheel. and two pins insert-
ed, the seeds are dropped about 11
inches apart. With three pins the dis-*
tance would be; a, fraction over seven
inches. The two wheels may be of dif-
ferent size. and both of them be pro-
vided with pieces for one, two or three
pins. and then a variety of distances
may be at the user’s disposal. In mak—
ing mine, I had an old seeder to begin
with. so I had only the tube to make
and the pins to fix on the wheels with
the spring snapper. I have used this
veedcr for lima beans and some other
large needs; which the garden seeder
would not. drop—C. L. Hill, in Farm
and Home.
Runners of Strawberries.
Whether yearly or late runners on
strawberry plants are to be used for
the succeeding crop is a question
worthy of consideration. E. A. Riehl
says that the early runners should be
be few if any late ones to cut 011’. Some
varieties of strawberries have the habit
on the early runners, and“if these early
runners are not allowed to grow there

rieties that will bear fruit no matter

a new and more polite version of the

have been but poorly attended. The
bench-ens seem anxious- to' remedy this

regulation which will doubtless. be

TAUGHT HER A LESSON.
A Selfish Young Woman Who “Foo-
Not Content with One Sent
to:- one Far-e.
When a newspaper man boarded a
Madison street cable car the other day,
five men. standing and glaring at the
only vacant seat—vacant in the sense
that its only occupant consisted of sev-
eral small packages deposited there by
a young woman next to the heater,
who was reading a novel in ostentae
tiously serene indifference to her mo-
nopoly. The newspaper man took in
the situation at'a glance and, touching
on the knee :1 man who sat next to the
packages, said, with a covert wink:
“I beg pardon, do these packages be-
long to you ?”
Before the man sitting had finished
his expected disclaimer of ownership
the Ioung woman snatched up the
packages and placed them on her lap
with the air of a greatly aggrieved per-
son. The scribe calmly sat down and,
glancing across the aisle, saw three
smiling ladies, one of whom, apromi-
nent member offa West. side woman’s
club. he happened to know. . She bowed
to him and, leaning forward, he made
this response in perfectly audible
tones:
“Mrs. —, I wish you would do me a
favor. At the next meeting of your
club read a papeg glvingthe unpopular
side of the widely discussed topic:
‘Why are not men more polite to wom-
