In another column is an article !
telling about the use of arsenate '
of lead and Paris green t j kill 1
potato bugs. These remedies !
are good, but there is always
danger in having these deadly !
poisons about the home. Chil 1
dren may take some of the
poison before it can be helped.
Every care should be exercised
in the use of these poisons. It is
better to buy only as much as '
you need at a time.
We regret that the election on
the question of issuing bonds for
road improvement went against
the bonds because we believed
it was to the interest of the people
to issue bonds and build per
manent roads throughout the
township and county. We hope
the next plan advanced for road
improvement will be a better
one, but we fear it will not. We
submit as gracefully as possible
to the will of the majority.

the pockets of the tax payers of
Chesterfield county. Sooner or
later the people will see how
tirelessly he has fought for them
and then he will rise high in the
esteem of his fellow men throughI
out the width and breadth of
j the county. The people will
. honor him and remember him
as a friend. This is the pay
I Evans wants and will get.
The sandhill" sections of the
county are poorer because of
frequent forest fires. As fast as
leaves and trash-accumulate on
the land fire sweeps over it and
consumes the accumulated
vegetable matter and kills the
undergrowth, leaving the land
clean and bare and the trees
charred. This process keeps the
soil in an impo\erished condition
from year to year and
when it is cleared it does not
yield as fresh land should.
These fires become less frequent.
however, as the land is
settled and cleared up. The
fires discourage settlement by
making the land poor, and
settlers discourage the tires by
cleaning up fields and making
extensive forest fires impossible.
The sooner the settlers
get in the ascendancy in every
nook of tho county the better
for all concerned,
Time Has Come For War On
Potato Bugs
Cleinson College, May 1?
That common pest, the potato
bug, is now requiring attention
in South Carolina potato fields
and vegetable gardens, accord
ing to A F. Conradi, entomologist
of Clemson College. For
the sake of the state's spuds, he
describes methods of waging
war upon the bug.
"There are two forms of
poison used for killing the potato
bug," says Prof. Conradi.
"The best is arsenate of lead.
Paris green is also extensively
used. Arsenate of lead is pur
chased in two forms, paste and
powder. The ponder is recommended
for the reason that it is
more easily handled, cannot
freeze aud cannot dry up. For
large areas this powder is used
at the rate of lib. to 50 gallons
pf water. In making up arsenate
of lead or Paris green
solutions always stir fcthe poison
with a little water to the thick
ness of white wash before it is
added to the bulk of water.
Paris g^een is made up in the
same way as arsenate of lead,
except that the rate is 1-4 lb. of
Paris green to 50 gallons of
water."
For the small family garden,
says the entomologist, arsenatse
of lead powder is used at the
rate of a heaping teaspoonful to
a pail of water, Paris green, at
the rate of a level teaspoonful to
a pail of water. Pans green
should not be sprayed on the
plants without the addition of a
little whitewash to the spray.
This mil lu> nrrnmnlicho:! Ku
slaking a lump of quick lime
with a little warm water and
adding it to the pail of spray.
Arsenate of lead powder or
Paris green may be dusted. lror
the family garden it can dusted
through a muslin or cheese cloth
sack or through an old tomato
can with a number of small
holes punched in the bottom.
I is on, because theni^M^H

busted alone without
be^Juste?a?'''SSe'rate*of about
1 to 21bs. to the acre. If one
seems to be using too much of
it and trouble, it can be mixed
one half its weight with air slaked
lime and dusted liberally.
To dust Paris green, add a teaspoonfull
of Paris green to a
quart or air-slaked lime and
mix thoroughly and then dust
on plants in the morning while
the dew is yet onihem.
Where one desires to spray the
powder, any kind of spray pump
with a tine nozzle is .satisfactory.
Some people apply the spray
by means of a whis broom and
still others with pine brush tied
together. Although crude and
somewhat wasteful, this serves
the purpose in the small family
garden.

Hail Insurance in Strong Com- ii

The Home Fire Insurance ?
company, of. New York, the 1:
strongest company of the kind v
in the country has added a line r
of hail insurance for crops to *
their business and the Pageland *
Insurance and Realty Company 5
has the agency for this company. *
T-Iotl inail.AM<tn V. * ?
ismt IU9UIBUVC 11CICIUIU1K HAS
not been very satisfactory *
for the reason that only small jj
or local companies carried it,
and in case of geheral destruc- 8
tion the company could not c
pay the damage and remain in *
bssiness. This strong company, 8
with millions capital, can pay J
for all the damage that is likely ^
to occur in several states, how- J
ever, and anyone who insures
his crop against hail with this f
company may feel sure that the
company will be able to pay '
the damage. The cost is small
and nearly every man can have
his crop protected by insurance
if he will. Mr. A. F. Funderburk
will be glad to discuss the (
matter with you and quote you c
rates. c
