Why does my home-canned tomato juice sometimes separate? A. Some separation is normal because the pulp is heavier than the light-colored juice so settles below it in the jar. The finer the sieve used for straining the juice, the less the pulp will settle. Too much or too little heat may cause the solid part of the tomatoes to Remember — You Always Save At...

For practical purposes a met al juice extractor is satisfactory unless some copper or iron is ex posed. A bag would hold back so much good red pulp that the juice pressed out would be weak and pale.* Matilda Bell, Co. Home Dem. Agent. X Sabadilla Kills Hard-To-Kill Bugs Clemson, Aug. 6. — Considerable Interest exists in the use of Sa badilla, a plant extract to control certain hard-to-kill bugs such as harlequin bugs on collards, squash bugs, and chinch bugs. W. C. Nettles, Clemson extension ento mologist, says many county a- gents are giving the new material a trial. He quotes these reports of results: C. B. Cannon, Laurens county agent: “Never before have I seen anything that would kill harlequin bugs. There is no question in my mind now that these bugs can be killed. I find the dust very easy to apply because it is very fine and easily dusted through a small dust gun.” J. E. Fagan, Union county a- gent: “All of the harlequin bugs and squash bugs were killed on the plots where the dust was ap plied. The dust is very easy to use, being a fine powdered form. We used one plot, dusting very heavily; another dusting some what lighter. The dust was very effective on both plots. I think there are lots of farmers in Un ion county that would be inter ested in securing some .of the dust.” J. L. King, Chesterfield' county agent: “I have given Sabadilla dust a thorough trial on the con trol of squash bugs and harle quin bugs and have secured ex cellent results. I have used it on squash bugs attacking both squash and watermelons and it j j did a thoruogh job of killing (these bugs. Some farmers who | used this insecticide in the con trol of squash bugs, bean beetles, harlequin bugs, and the Colorado potato beetle were highly enthu siastic over its control of these insects. There was no apparent damage to any of the plants. The fineness of the dust made it easy to use in a dust gun.” INSURANCE 8863 34-48 Machineless Wave No Machinery No Electricity In Your Franchise Salon VANITY BEAUTY SHOP Matilda Nichols, Mgr., Main St. __ Phone 6T McCormick, S.
