Thla dust can be mixed at home for about 14 cenu per pound. See article on "Striped Cucumber Beetle" for further Information about home miring this dual. • • • Paultry W. H. Allen, poultry specialist, is the following to say about raising young stock: "The big problem In raising chicks after the first few weeks Is to keep tier-, growing steadily. Three factors enter Into good management. “!• Heat—Do not take away artificial heat from the young stock until they have gone to roost. Provide more room for the growing pullets by separating the cockerels as soon as possible. "2. Cleanliness—Clean out the brooder house once a week. See that the roosts are free 'rom mites. Wire or board up the four aide* of the brooder house so that tbe chicks cannot get rnder It. "3. Feeding—Good feeding requires following a definite schedule. Tie following Is a good one. ri*«rTe how the chicks clean up ths scratch feed at each feeding. "Normal growth and daily feed consumption for 200 growing birds (in part): Seventh week. .9 lbs. weight per bird. 8 lbs. grain. 5.5 Tbs. mash: eighth week. 1.0 lbs. weight. 8.5 Tbs grain. 6.5 lbs. mash: ninth week. 1.2 lbs. weight. 9.5 lbs. grain, 7.5 lbs. mash; tenth week. 1.4 lbs weight. 12.0 lbs. grain. 9.5 lbs. mash. "Care of laying flock—Between May 1 and 15 Is the peak of high egg production and also the halfway point In the yesr's production. From now on It Is i. case cf keeping the flock layiug at Its maximum and culling out those that show Indications of non-laying. Just how well your flock lays for tbe real of the year depends upon good management. *See that the flock eats an average of 25 pounds dally per 100 birds. For beat results figure 12 pounds of scratch grain, 12 pounda of mash and one pound of milk. Keep the wi pans clean and full. The mash hopperr should not be over 20 Inches off the fle ,r. For 100 birds provide two hoppers 8 fe«t loeg “Mites and lice will do more to cut down production durimt May .nd June than most anything else Bee that your pens and birds are free from them."

tbe beetles to wraps. To obtain 3 per cent. dust, such a# la used for aphis and cucumber beetle, air slaked lime and 40 per cent, nicotine sulfate are mixed In the proportion of 8 3-4 pounds of nicotine sulfate to SO pounda of lime. Of course, as small or large a quanUty as Is dsslrsd can be mixed. To mix, tbe lime is put In the mixer through a small trap door on the aide of the keg. Then the nicotine sulfate la sprinkled over the lime Add half as many pounda of pebbles as the amount of lime which Is being mixed. The pebbles should be from 3-4 to 11-2 Inches In diameter. The material and pebbles are then rotated for at least five minutes. Sift tbe material when mixed into a box to catch the pebbles, and put the nlcoUne dust In air right Jars or tin boxes. For the convenience of those not caring to construct a mixer, thla office has one available at Court House, Including the pebbles. The mixer la so constructed that It cannot be moved, ao bring the lime and nicotine sulfate and mix It here. Bring acme of your neighbors along some night It more convenient, and mix enough

for all.

Striped Cucumber Beetle ThU beetle has yellowish wings, atripod with black. They are only -known to our melon grower*. They attack the smell tender melon planu and will kill thi unless something U done to prevent It. A little turpentine mixed with lime acts as a repeUant. and some even state that moth balls will answer the same purpose. However. the most effective means of controlling them, which has been tried by many of our local growers. to be 3 per cent, nicotine dust. ThU dust not only repeU the beetle, but kilU many as well. Several men here In the county mix their own dust at an approximate cost o' 14 cenU per pound. One of these men U E. E. Medara. of Palermo. Mr. Madar*. constructed his mixer out of e twenty-gallon keg. The keg U erected ao that It can k* rotated by hand with a crank. Such a mixer Is about Ideal and a Urge quantity of dust can be mixed by means of It In s short

time.

The most effective way cf applying the dust Is by the use of a hill duster to which is attached a short rubber how with a large funnel

on the end of It. The funnel U “uat Instnnces 3 per cent, i dropped ove' the hill end doe* not dust is probably a morel allow the «'ast to blow away or

Such is life Thr tadpole frisked in hU chlld--sh glee And wiggled hU little tall. And dreamed of the time to when b* VT'th hU music would regale A sweetheart listening on the bank. And casting her glances fond. At her lover there In their refuge dank O'erlooklng the little pond. When rime had passed and hU tall h*d split. And his springy legs had grown. He would sit and sing and sing and alt With the sweetest girl e’er known; Then hU piping vole* was rounded

But alas! they found that their love was doomed By a rather heartless Fate, For one dark night while his deep vole* boomed In a love song to his mste.

A Bsoonitructed Bebd Time has worked wonders upon Agulnaldo. the one-time rebel, guerrilla and all-around nuisance, who for years kept the Philippines In turmoil after American occupation. As president of the Veterans of the Philippine Revolution, the general appears on the scene again as the champion of General Wood and hla administration, and urges the Filipinos to strtv* for national unity and to stamp out political bickering and the spirit of taction. "The American flag is the greatest symbol of liberty In the world." says the ex-rebel general, ’hen the time comes the United States will grant you freedom. but that time has not yet arrived." Not leas significant of the changes which have come over the spirit of tbe Phlllppices Is the fact that General Agulnaldo's organization of veterans la a nonpolltcal and nonmilitary body dedicated to the civic and moral welfare of the
