COMPOUNDS TO KILL INSECTS Experimental Work Recently Under taken by Specialists of the Bureau of Chemistry. Back of the manufacture of Goodyear Tires for small cars is the same purpose to supply high value in the product that is behind the manufacture of the Goodyear Tires that equip the most expensive automobiles built. This purpose is expressed by the enormous resources, extraordinary skill and scrupulous care applied to the manufacture of Goodyear Tires in the largest tire factory in the world devoted solely to the 30x3-, 30x3 1 /2'» and 31x4"inch sizes. The effect of this endeavor is noted in the fact that last year more cars using these sizes were factory-equipped with Goodyear Tires than with any other kind. It is also noted in the fact that, if you own a Ford, Chevrolet, Dort, Maxwell or other car requiring the sizes mentioned, you can secure Goodyear Tires and Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tubesat the nearest Goodyear Service Station. (Prepared by (he United States Depart ment o£ Agriculture.) The development of methods for the manufacture of cheaper and better chemical compounds to kill insects and fungi which destroy large quantities of fruits and vegetables each year is the object of experimental work re cently undertaken by specialists in the Insecticide and fungicide laboratory of the bureau of chemistry, United States department of agriculture. The high cost of copper, which is an essential ingredient of the fungicide known as bordeaux mixture, has led to experiments to determine whether a bordeaux mixture cannot be prepared which will be more effective for each unit of copper present than as usually prepared, thus resulting in a saving of this expensive constituent of the bor deaux mixture. Studies also will be made of the manufacture of paris green, lead ar senate, and other compounds of ar senic. No systematic study of all the compounds of arsenic that might be useful in spraying has been made, and It is thought probable that such a systematic study will lead either to the development of cheaper sprays, because the constituent elements are cheaper, or to sprays that are more effective than the sprays now used. Nicotine as an insecticide will be studied with a view of developing pos sible substitutes for it, since there are a number of compounds which resem ble nicotine in chemical and toxic properties. It is hoped to develop something that will be cheaper and even more effective than nicotine. A study will also be made of the best and cheapest methods of extracting nicotine from tobacco products on the farm. Compounds of lime, sulphur, and other compounds which may be used ns insecticides and fungicides will be investigated. Commercial methods of preparing insecticides and fungicides will be studied under practical conditions of preparation with a view of developing cheaper and more effective methods for manufacturing them. The efficiency of the insecticides developed and the question of whether or not they are injurious to growing fruits and vegetables will be deter mined by field experiments conducted by the bureaus of entomology, plant industry and chemistry. ‘ A method for preparing a commer cial grade of calcium arsenate has been worked out and a patent obtained for the process. The patent has been dedicated to the public, and any manu facturer may use It. The results of the investigation and a description of the process for preparing calcium ar senate have been published in depart ment Bulletin 750, which may be ob tained upon application to the United States department of agriculture, Washington, D. C. GEORGIA—Fayette County. To Whom It May Concern: Ernest Hand hereby gives notice that at the regular March term of the superior court. of said county to be held on the third Monday in March, 1920, he will apply to said court by petition to be relieved of his disabilities placed upon him by the verdict of the jury in the case of Minnie L. Hand vs. Ernest Hand, in a suit for divorce by Minnie L. Hand against Ernest Hand, at the March term, 1917, of said court, wherein a total divorce was granted between the parties and petitioners, Ernest Hand was left under the disability of not being allowed to marry again, and Ernest Hand publishes this no tice as required by law.

WINTER CARE FOR CURRANTS After being sterilized, filled and sealed, each bottle of Chercr Cola is labelled with the famous four-color label. This label is your guarantee of a pure, wholesome drinh! Without this label @111 it isn’t Chero-Cola. The automatic machine labels bottles at the rate of twcra-second, or 7,200 each hour. Now you know some of the rea sons why everyone admits There s None So Good”. Eradicate Insects and Fungus Germs Dormant Spray of Lime and Sulphur Is Good. Currants need good soil, and should not be planted too close, The rows should be at least seven feet apart, and the bushes five feet apart in the row. At tills distance, when full grown, they will come togellKir in the rows and leave none too much space between the rows for cultivation, and picking. Of course, this is for mar ket purposes. For home purposes four or five bushes, if properly taken care of, will give an ample supply. The soil should be rich and kept rich and moist by ample mulching with strong manure. This should be attended to every spring. Currant bushes need some trimming. Every spring they should Thera Coia^ Lee Black Currants. oe gone over, and all the new shoots taken out, with the exception of three or four. All wood and all branches lying on the ground siiould also be cut away, together with broken stalks. They should have a dormant spray of lime and sulphur, of the same strength as used for apples, one gallon of con centrated solution to nine gallons of water. This Is to eradicate scale and destroy fungus germs.
