THE CARROLL FREE PRESS, CARR THE CARROLL FREE PRESS, CARR THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1923 The number of miles any product travels before reaching your home doesn’t add one whit to its quality--more likely it will add to the price. There should be no particular magic in a label because it bears the name of a distant city or state. Distance may lend enchantment, but it unvariably adds to the price.

CONTROLLING BEAN BUGS I have inquiries every day as to meth ods of controlling beau bugs. The vn rious poisons are very effective in eon- trolling this post but the question ill ways comes: Will it lie safe to use the beans after the poison has been applied? The answer is yes, provi ded care is exercised in washing the beans thoroughly before using. Calcium arsenate may be used and should be thoroughly mixed with equal parts of hydrated (water slaked) lime. Lead arsenate may be used and should be thoroughly mixed one part lead arsenate to ton pounds of hydra ted lime. For either mixture a dusting inn chine used for dusting cotton may be used. In case a machine cannot be had some hand device may be used to dust the mixtures on the plant. It should be placed on while plants are damp and the plant should not be made white but should only show greenish gray.— C. B. Ingram, County Agunt. FOR SALE Two extra fine Duroc Jersey Shoats.

The Mexican beau beetle is becoming vervs serious pest on the leguminous crops' in Georgia, particularly on the Barden beans and their close relatives It was first reported in the South axpuiu Birmingham, P Ala., in July, 1920 Since then it has spread rapidly in Alabama and into Georgia, ia which state it ms been reported from Darien and Thomas- vile in the south to all of the northern counties .iust south of the Ten#l:see border. The beetle has also malW its wav as far north as Kentucky an* Dr yin in. This insect belongs to a *irge group of beetles, among which we find tho Irish potato bug and many other beetles aro are injurious to young nouns, cantaloupes nnd like plants. There aro also beneficial insects in this group. According to tho Alabama publica tions, the bean beetle feeds on snap beans, navv beans, lima or butter beans, corn - field beans, beggar weed cow-peas, flowering beans, soy beans, sweet clover and alfalfa.. Velvet beans, crimson clover, espendeza and vetch are nirev attacked, while peanuts and Eng lish peas do not seem to be hurt at all. The adult beetle, when it is mature, if :i bronze brown with sixteen black snots The larva is yellowish nnd hairy looking and it takes from four to five weeks for the insect, to pass from the egg to.the adult. The beetles spend the winter as adults, coming out in the early spring to lay their eggs and start thoir depradations. The state of Anbamft has had more experience in fighting the bean beetle than any other state in tho South, and they recommend a dust made of foui parts of hydrated lime, one part of dust ing sulphur nnd one part of high grade calcium arsenate. These materials should be well mixed together and used as a dust with a hand (luster. If large areas are to bo treated, it takes about twenty pounds of the mixture to dust an acre. The first application should be made ns soon as the feeding injury by liibernnted beetles becomes common. This is generally about the time the blooming of tho beans begins. Treat ment should he repeated every seven days or so oil snap beans, nnd from foui to five applications should be sufficient to control the pest. On butter beans or lima beans treatment should be very ten days. No fear of poisoning need be entertained from eating beans from dusted fields as beans are always wash ed well before cooking in the first place, and in the second place very small amounts of dust would be on any indi vidual bean. Early planting for the spring crop if a help in controling the beetle, and MRS. E. J. EARNEST All of the friends of Mrs. Earnest were snddened when the nows came that her soul had taken its flight to another world to spend all eternity.

Heavy growing and rapidy growing beans should be used nnd liberal amounts of fertilizer should tie applied to stimulate growth so that tlie beans may afford to lose a few eaves and still make a profitable crop.— T. 11.

We roalize that the church lias not only lost her oldest member but, a real mother in Israel. She was no public speaker, but she was such a fine homo worker. She was loyal to her church ns long as she was able. When we had Saturday meetings a long time ago, she was always there unless something was in the way. Sis ter McColister was conscious that the time for her spirit to take its flight was at hand. She told her lover ones bv her bedside that she was going to die and for them to tell her loved ones that were not present to meet her in heaven.
