If you haven't given you trees close attention, it would be wel for you to inspect them for this ap ? pearance. The ^use of this substance ^ being found o. the tree is due to the J | borer, which has cut through the sa] > of the tree and is cutting off a par I! of the supply of plant food ^cded be ; | the tree. ?? Wherever you find this gummy mas; present, clean it away and searcl ] | thoroughly the hole found in the bail > of the tree for the presence of th< J borer, using either a pocket-knife oi J | an old wire. If you find the borer <? destroy him; so that he cannot repro I duce his kind to attack your tree; J | next year. '? Within the next few weeks is thi !! best time to put on the tree was! ; | and bank up the trees for the sunr <? mer. The following directions maj aid you in this work. Remove th( | J earth from around the tree to a deptl ?? of 2 or 3 inches below the surface ol Iljthe ground, being sure to rid the tre< ] J of all borers. .Next apply ^ine wasr < ? to the trunk of the tree up to the .! point where the Jimbs begin branching \ [ out. You may use the standard trunk ? wash, which has the following for!! mula: J | Quick lime 20 lbs ? Whale oil soap 3 lbs ! | Sulphur 4 lbs ) J Water 25 gals 1? or you may prepaie a wash by mix . ing one can of lye to five gallons ol ^ | water. The latter wash is the easiei prepared of the two, and gives satis~ factory results. The wash may be applied by means of a paint brusl ~ ? ? i - xt. *T?1 or mop made 01 oui ciom. mm ic place the earth around the trunk 01 9 the tree, banking it up about fiv< m inches above the surface of th( j ground. S Plant lice.?If your omamenta plants or garden crops are affecte< 2 with the little aphides or plant lice 8 you would do well to spray thorough J ly with the following spray: Nicotine sulphate (40 per cent.) 8 1 teaspoonfu Laundry soap 1 inch cutn j| Water 1 gal lor | Prepare the above spray materia i by disolving the soap in the water g adding the nicotine sulphate, anc B then applying as a fine mist spray. 8 Watch your plaitts and trees close ly, and if any insects or diseases are 8 detected, begin fighting them at once 8 for "A Stitch in Time, Will Ofter 1 Save Nine" in fighting plant disease; S and insects on your premises will ? spread over and destroy your neigh bor' plants. If you don't know how tc J control a disease or insect, consull fyour county agent, home demonstration agent, or agricultural teacher; 8 they will be only too glad to help ? you out. o Old Sunday Blue Laws ++ T The March, 1921 number of Cuv a.i i. !A.. i? rent .History, a reputaoie auuuruy 1; published by the New York Time* |; Company, gives from the pen oJ ? Frank Parker Stockbridge an inter!! esting historical account of this much11 discussed subject, "Blue Laws ir ? America," a portion of which we I quote : J | "Most famous among these earliei ? codes, if not the most important, were 1! the blue laws of Connecticut, first givJ | en public prominence by the Rev 1*1. Samuel Peters in his 'General History ?. of Connecticut, originally* published in London in 1781. | "The Rev. Mr. Peters was a cler? gyman of the Church of England whe ! went out to the Connecticut colony ir J \ the middle of the eighteenth century "Asa loyalist he found himself unpop., ular in the troublous times preced| J ing the American Revolution, and it 1774 he fled the colony and returned .. to England. When his book appearJ [ ed seven years later it was greeted 1' with a storm of denunciation in Ameri . ica. Patriotism and state pride havt I [ led so many commentators to deny the 1' existance of the blue laws cited by .. Mr. Peters that it has become the cur t rent belief that his catalogue of statf utory offenses alleged to prevail ir X the colony of Connecticut was a saj j tirical fabrication out of the whole ' cloth. But while it is literally true ?? that none of the blue laws ever stooc \ | on the Connecticut statute bocks ir ' the precise form in which the rever end historian quotes them?he ac\knowledged that he had never seer ' ' them in print and was setting then i down from memory?extensive reJI search by Walter F. Prince and othei ] | historians bears out the statement thai ?> laws substantially to the same effeel I! were in existence and enforced, cithei '1 in Connecticut or in the neighboring ? theistic commonwealth of Massachu\ setts. Hearing of the punishment ; | meted out under these laws, and sc ?? having them fixed in his memory, il !! does not discredit Mr. Peters to point ; | out that some of the laws he attri?? butes to Connecticut were actually the 11 laws of Massachusetts. J J "Such of the forty-eight blue law?? cited by Mr. Peters as relate to Sun day observance he set down thus: I " 'So one shall run cn the Sabbath I day, or walk in his garden or else- | J where, except reverently to and from j v meeting. | s " 'So one shall travel, cook victuals, | l- make beds, sweep house, cut hair or ? 1 shave on the Sabbath day. ^ "Xo woman shall kiss her child on ? 2 the Sabbath or fasting day.' | 2 " This last was deduced by Mr. | j Peters, apparently, from the record of I t the imposition of a fine of ton shill- jj j ing by the Colony of Massachusetts | upon a certain seafaring man and his i 5 wife, when, his ship arrived in port | i on a Sunday, she met him****and, | i forgetful for the moment of the rever- g i ence due the day, greeted him with a g r kiss, to the desecration of the Sab- I , bath. i " The two other blue laws quoted * ; were typical of the Sunday-observ ance statutes that prevailed in nearly g ; all the American colonies in the eigh- | i teenth century and continued in sev- | - eral states for a long time after the f r Revolution." 5 Low Cost cf Newspaper Advertising. 1 Few advertising men know that m advertising space in newspapers is f by far the economical way to reach J the consumer. It is a fact and the only reason that advertising was ever created was because wise and shrewd business men learned that they could buy white space in publications at a minimun cost and because of the message they would put into that space they could make a profit on the transaction and make the advertising a real ? investment in production of sales and good will. In these days of high cost of white paper and printing the advertiser could not print a full page advertise[ ment and buy the white paper at the ? small c<vst that the newspaper charges * " - - 1 ' -i-i: 1 ; him lor the complete page aeuvucu into the home by invitation. That is ' to say, the readers of this newspaper 1 buy a paper because they want to ' read it and because they know they " get more for their money at 2 or 3 cents than anything else they could buy at the price. That is what makes ' the advertising so valuable, provided J they have the right message, the right 1 illustration and the right merchandis1 ing plan back of the advertising. > Newspaper advertising is by far the most economical method to reach the consumer. 666 cures Malarial Fever. ^ t .
