KEEP YOUR LAWNS PRETTY ALL THE YEAR Constant Care May Keep Home Beautifier At Its Best The carpet-c'-tbe-yard from the landscape standpoint is the basis of the Home Beautiful. It is the ground work of the whole picture —the open center about which other things should be planted. Many excellent landscape effects and pieasing natural pictures are obtained with only grass and trees, and, contrary to the average concep tion, flowers, although they may be, and often are employed with telling effect, are really incidental and should not be used until the law has obtained perfection. Blue grass makes one of tbe pret tiest lawns possible, but since it usu ally languishes during the summer except, possibly, in shaded areas or in sections of north Georgia, it has been found expedient to use mixtures of Kentucky blue grass, Bermuda gra i and others, varying with the locality. Mowing once a week will help to keep it green by causing new growth and forcing it to spread, resulting in a better sod for the lawn and chok ing out of weeds. When the grass is cut weekly there is no need of raking off the cuttings. On the other hand, it should be allowed to remain on the lawn to be worked down around the roots of the plants and rot so the or ganic matter of the soil will be kept up. The summer fertilization of the lawn should consist of top dressing it once a month with nitrate of soda, using a pound of nitrate to 400 square feet of lawn. Apply this just before a rain if possible, otherwise follow the application of the nitrate with a good watering. Bo not sprinkle the lawn every afternoon, but about once a week, and, during dry times, give it a good watering by allowing the sprinkler to stay in one place until the ground is thoroughly wet. In the fall, before very cold weath er, cut the Bermuda grass close, and sow blue grass seed at the rate of one pound and a half to each 400 square feet of lawn. This is for the winter. It is also well to give a top dressing of well rotted manure after sowing these seed. For further in formation, write the Georgia State Col lege of Agriculture. SOAP MAKES SPRAYS MORE BENEFICIAL Sprays Are Found To Stick To Plant Better When Soap Is Used Hard soap, used at the rate of one pound to six to eight gallons of water, has always been recommended for a spray against soft bodied sucking in sects like plant lice. This soap should be shaved with a sharp knife and dis solved in the water. Recently the recommendation to use from one to two pounds of hard soap to fifty gallons of other sprays has become quite general. The reason for this is that the soap makes the spray material spread more evenly on the tree and improves the sticking quali ties of the spray. An even spread and a good stick are two very essential qualities of any spray mixture. As the soap gives these qualities and does not react chemically with the usual spray mu terials, it is most advisable to add it to the common sprays when using them in the garden or in the orchard In small quantities add one ounce to the gallon of spray. Formulas of the various sprays and instructions on how to use them can be gotten by writing the Georgia State College ot Agriculture, Athens, Ga. FUMIGATION LESSENS CORN WEEVIL DAMAGE Cribs Should Be Made As Near ly Airtight As Possible To Facilitate Future Fumigation At the present time the Georgia State College of Agriculture, through the Horticultural Department, is co operating with the United States De partinent of Agriculture to lessen the insect damage to ston'd grains. One of the most serious nests the Georgia farmer has to contend with is the weevil in coni after it has been har vested. Some of the corn is even injured in the field before it is car ried to the crib. It is estimated that twenty per cent of the corn is in jured by these weevils yearly, result ing ia great loss to our farmers. These weevils can be controlled through fumigation with carbon bi sulphide, using from one or more pounds per each 1,000 cubic feet oi space to be fumigated, the amount depending upon the seriousness of the Wifestation and the tightness of the corn-crib. Farmers wishing to f'tmi gale their corn this season sroulc start now to make their cribs as near ly air-tight as possible ami get into communication with the Geoigis State College of Agriculture so as tc receive all help possible when th time comes to fumigate the crop.

Health About Gone Many thousands of women suffering from womanly trouble, have been benefited by the use of Cardui, the woman’s tonic, according to letters we receive, similar to this one from Mrs. Z. V. Spell, of Hayne, N. C. “I could not stand on my feet, and just suffered terribly, she says. “As my suf fering was so great, and he had tried other reme dies, Dr. —•— had us get Cardui. . I began improving, and it cured me. 1 know, and my doctor knows, what Car dui did for me, for my nerves and health were about gone.” TAKE CARDUI The Woman’s Tonic She writes further! "1 am in splendid health ... can do my work. I feel I owe it to Cardui, for I war in dreadful condition.” It you are nervous, run down and weak, or suffet from headache, backache, etc., every month, try Cardui. Thousands of women praise this medi cine for the good it has done them, and many physicians who have Used Cardui successfully with their women patients, for years, endorse this medi cine. Think what it means to be in splendid health, like Mrs. Spell. Oive Cardui a trial. All Druggists J7l
