J "Clean culture plays a most important part in the fight which must be: waged against the insects which men ace the success of the home gardenei's efforts," ay the entomologists of the United States Department of Agriculture. "Cleaning off all the rubbish left over from last season's gardening aids materially in reducing the numbers of the overwintering forms of the insect enemies of the vegetable garden, whose activi- j ties are only too great* in any case. Clean Up Litter and Uuhbish. "Cutworms which hide in the soil "in ihc daytime and come out'at night ta feed on the tender growth and cut small plants entirely off, wireworms that damage the tubers of potatoes nad other root crops an I a host of other insects, winter under brush and rubbish on the earth or a few inches under ground. Where they can find protection during the cool weather of winter, conditions are ideal for their survival, and the Mvaj-m days of the spring will bring ^Jthem out in countless numbers to 1 eetl upon the tender foilage of the young- garden truck. Neighboring: v eed patches shelter many forms. In the Clulf region and westward some insects work practically the year round. " 'Aphids' or plant-lice, are active during the winter months in the more southern sections and find food on ornamental vines and shrubs and on growing weeds which afford them food and shelter when other plants are not available. Much may be gain Jed by keeping down the weeds in \ r.oglccted corners. "Leaves, stems, and other litter should never ho allowed to accumulate up to the time of planting, or there will he thousands of insects the cor:iing" year where there were hundreds last season. Weeds should bo cleared up and burned, together with ail garden lubbish. Working Soil Will Destroy Many Insects. '"The soil should be thoroughly worked over during- the winter to destroy such insects as may be spending the winter on, or a few inches below, the surface. This is best clone (at least a month before the seeds are planted. u "If chickens are available for the purpose, they ought to be allowed free access to the newly turned over Whenever You Need General Tonic Take Grove's, The Old Standard Grove's Tasteless chill Tonic ia equally valuable as a General Tonic because it contains the vpc 11 known tonic properties of QUININE and IRON.

American artillery on the Tout front has heavily attacked the Gerrnans with gas shells, it is now permitted to announce. Four different attacks were launched and from the manner in which the enemy was >jilnm?rwl i< !" 1 1 x, VV1UI IIL IIH'V IUICI tiU5 (it si rod effect. During one period when the gas shells were flying over the enemy lines last night, a Gorman airplane with a red tail light apj>cured over the American lines and dropped a rod rocket, for what purpose d. is not known. However, shrapnel from American anti-aircraft batteries burst so near the German immediately afterward that he was forced to fly for his own lines in a hurry. Last night, the enemy observation towers and position on Montsec were shelled heavily, and a heavy fire was directed against the enemy lines this morning. Artillery Exchanges. At noon today the enemy opened a lively fire on one of the American positions with 37-millimeter guru* from the cemetery at Riehec.ourt. Tho American gun of the same caliber came into action and after they hud fired 50 shells, the Germans ran from the position and took their guns with them. The American guns then shell etl the village of Lahayville, where I've heavy explosions, apparently of munition stores, were caused. The German artillery directed moat of its attention to dropping a few gas shells into one or two towns wi;.h in the American lines, and shelling a cross roads known as Death's Comer during the day and night. Little to Interest Patrol. Last night, American patrols entered the flermnn t'mnt limw >* points but diil not see a single enemy soldier, although they hunted for some time. Another patrol remained in the enemy wire entanglements ail night, hoping to ambush an expected | enemy party, but it did not appear. A third patrol party was discovered by the Germans, who hurled hand grenades and forced the Americans to wtihdraw. Still another established contact with an enemy patrol and a few shots were exchanged. The Americans came htrough unscathed, but it is not known what happened to the Germans. Entente Airplane Beaten. Many airplanes were tied up until it began to rain at noon. One airplane from the rear of the American line drove off tw,o Boche machines after a thrilling battle in and out of the clouds. Another airplane was ' engaged against n German when a second German joined in the fight. A second friendly airman came up to assist, but it was too late, for the airplane the Americans hoped would be victorious, fell to the ground within the enom\ lines. On the sector east of Luneville, the artillery continued active and a few American patrols have reached the enemy line. One party enepunternl an enemy patrol urul forced the Germans to v ithdraw after a sharp skirmish. A certain Irish regiment was bombarded heavily today with big shells. Repuorts from both the Luneville and Toul sectors say that more German gas projectiles batteries have been discovered and blown to bits by the American gunners. >?
