Can Use Calcium Arsenate on
Vegetable* or Tobacco
Calcium arsenate can be use ! to
dust or spray vegetables in the gar
dens to kill worms and to kill potato
bugs. It is stronger than arsenate
of lead, so use 3-4 of a pound of
calcium arsenate in the place of 1
pound of arsenate of lead. In using
a spray on vegetables, use 3 pounds
of lime to 3-4 pound of calcium ars
enate. It can be dusted on irish po
tatoes.
Mr. E. C. Westbrook, who was
I here lat week, is the College Tobac
| co Specialist, and he says equally as
good results will be secured in con
trolling the horn worm of tobacco by
dusting with calcium arsenate just
as it comes from the manufacturer.
For controlling the little bud worm
he says use 1 pound of calcium ars
enate to 75 pounds of meal and'
shake a little in the bud of each;
plant.
Are You Ready for the 801 l Weevil
Fight
Are you ready for the boll weevil
this summer? Those who sit back 1
and depend on getting calcium arse
nate and dusting machinery may
find themselves in a critical condi
tion and unable to get the machinery,
Remember last July when our cot
ton crop looked like old times? In
three weeks, the crop was cut two
thirds. It will require three weeks
to get dusting machinery here dur
ing the summer months, and it may
be impossible to get them at all. At
present, it requires two weeks from
the day machines are shipped until
get here by freight. A crop can bei
ruined in that time.
When to Start the Du*t
Those farmers who use the early
THE LYONS PROGRESS, LYONS, GEORGIA.
applications of syrup mixture, 1 gal
lon of molasses and 1 gallon of
water with 1 pound of calcium arse
. nate should not have to start their
i dusting until the first blooms appear,
'f they make their last application
of the mixture just before th&
squares are large enough for the
weevil to puncture. However, the
i punctured squares should be picked
up once a week from the time the
squares until the first blooms.
Then it will usually be necessary to
give a thorough dusting of about 3
applications four days apart and re
peat as soon as the weevils appear
again.
Those who do not use the molas
ses mixture should dust three times
when the squares first form, at in
tervals of four days, then pick up
the squares until the blooms rirst ap
pear. If this is done thoroughly
there should not be any more wee
vils until hibernation starts, when
more dusting will be necessary to
protect the young bolls. A goou
idea is to pull some of the first pur*,
ctured squares and lay in* a , shady
place. Dust when the weevil
hatches out of these equares, and
you will catch the first weevils that
hatch in your field and prevent their
laying any eggs. These direction!?
are abort and to the point.
I suggest that farmers cut this
out and keep it for future reference.
Marketing Frier*
During April fryer prives invar
iably drop. It is therefore import
ant that we grow our surplus cock
erels and cull pullets to profitable
market size as quickly as possible.
This can best be accomplished by
separating those that are to be mar
keted from the stock to be held when
from 6to 8 weeks of age. The mar
ket fryers should be confined to sep
arate brooder houses and yards while
the others should be given free
range.
The follow’ng home mixed ration
will be found very good for condit
ioning broiler.- and fryers Tor mar
el:
V. heat bran 10 pounds.
Corn meal 10 pounds.
Flour middlings 10 pounds.
Ground hulled oats 10 pounds.
Meat scrap 10 pounds.
This ration should be mixed with
milk and fed as a sloppy mixture
twice daily, giving all birds will
clean up in twenty minutes.
In addition to the above ration,
one feeding of scratch grain a day
should be given. Oyster shell or
grit should be furnished and green
food should be given once a day.
Broilers and fryers should not be
kept on this ration more than 10
days before being marketed. When
kept on a forcing ration more than
10 days the appetite is lost and
weight is likely to decrease instead
of increase.

Feeding Baby Chicks and Growing
Stock
First 24 hours in brooder. Fine
grit and shell in abundance with con
stant supply of milk and water.
Second day in brooder. Oat meal
fed sparingly three times during the
j day. Milk and water always before
i them.
j Third to seventh day. The fol
j lowing scratch rations 5 times daily,
feeding only what they will clean up
in few minutes: Equal parts fine
creacked corn, cracked wheat, pin
head oats or rolled oats.
One hard boiled egg to a hundred
'chicks can be given daily. Finely |
cut green feed should be given onee
daily.
Seventh to fourteenth day. Start
feeding wheat bran in shallow pans
or saucers, three times a day for two
days until chicks become use to it.
Omit one scratch feeding.
Third to eight week. Continue
feeding chick scratch ration three
times daily morning, noon and night.
When about six weeks of age a
coarser scratch ration should grad
ually replace the fine scratch feed.
Suppliment this scratch ration with
the following mash which should be
left before them all the while:
Wheat bran 300 pounds.
Wheat middlings 100 pounds.
Ground oats 100 pounds.
Corn meal 100 pounds.
Gluten feed 100 pounds.
Meat scrap 100 pounds.
Dried buttermilk 100 pounds.
(When liquid buttermilk is not
available).
In addition to above mash a!
scratch grain consisting of equal
parts of wheat and cracked corn
should be given morning and night.

Baking in the Home
There is no other single article of
food that is as frequently placed on
the table or takes as prominent a
place in the average diet as bread.
In some form or other it is served
at practically every meal, and many
times bread is the chief article of the
meal. Properly balanced with milk
butter, fruits, vegetables both leafy
and fleshy, eggs, cheese, or a little
meat, bread may well form a con
siderable part of our daily food.
Bread and other cereal products are
also among the least expensive of
our foods.
(As it occupies so prominent a
place in the diet, bread ought cer
tainly to be well made, well baked,
and properly cared for. Moreover,
any girl or woman who desires to be
known as a relly good cook, will
wish to excel particularly in bread
making. An ideal loaf of bread is
attractive in appearance; crust
smooth, tender, and golden brown in
color; the loaf itself light and well
rounded on top; the crumb spongy
and tender; and the whole delicious
in flavor.
Many housewives who do not care
to bake yeast bread frequently pre
pare “hot” or quick” breads for the
home table. It is well, therefore, to
emphasize the desirable character
istics of quick breads also, in order
that these, too, may be as well made
and well baked as possible. Hot
breads, because of their freshness
and softness, are often swallowed
hurriedly and without thorough ma
stication, hence it is especially im
portant that thorough baking, light
ness, and porosity should be sought
in their preparation, as well as good
flavor and attractive appearnce.
Although wheat is the leading
bread cereal in this country and
wheat flour of prime importance,
housewives have learned that many
desirable products may be made
from meals of other substances or'
> from a mixture of these with wheat
flour. This country has a consider
able number of products which may
be thus used, such as corn, rye, oats,
buckwheat, barley, rice, feteria, milo
maize, potatoes, peanuts, soy-bean
meal, and the flour made from pea
nut and soy-bean press cake. The
local use of these products where
they occur in quantity will be of
great economic value by saving a
large amount cf unnecessary trans
poration of food materials.
The following directions and
recipes deal not only with articles
made from wheat alone but also with
those into Which other porducts en
ter. All measurements are level.
Corn Muffins Southern Style
(15 small muffins)
2 cups corn meal (measured be
fore sifting).
3-4 teaspoon baking soda.
3-4 teaspoon salt.
1 egg.
1 tablespoon shortening (melted).
1 1-2 to 2 cups sour milk or but
termilk.
Proceed as directed for whole
wheat muffins.
Corn-Meal Sticks
The batter for corn-meal muffins
may also be baked in the iom bread
stick pans. Have the pans greased
and sizzling hot; place one good
spoonful in each depression so that
the latter is about two-thirds full;
smooth the top of the mixture with
a knife, if necessary, and bake in a
rather quick oven about 25 minutes.
Since they have a large proportion of
quick oven about 25 minutes. Since
they have a large proportion of
crisp crust and comparatively little
crumb, these cornstieks are liked my
many who do not otherwise care for
breads made entirely of corn meal.
If a corn-meal muffin of larger i
bulk and less granular in texture be
desired, some wheat flour must be
added to the meal, since mixtures
madew ith corn meal alone do not
rise as much as wheat-flour doughs.
If in the recipe for corn-meal muf
fins—southern style, one-third or
one-half of the meal were replaced
by wheat flour, a noticeably larger
and more porous muffin would re
sult.
Rice Whaffle.
(Serves four)
1 cup sifted flour.
3 teaspoons baking powder.
1-2 teaspoon salt.
2 teaspoons sugar, if desired.
1 cup cooked rice.
2 eggs.
1 tablespoon shortening (melted).
•About 3-4 cup milk.
Cook the rice until very soft and
while hot mash it to a pulp. When
cool add to it the melted shortening,
the beaten egg yolks, and 3-4 cup of
milk. Add to this the flour which
has been sifted with the baking pow
der, salt, and sugar. Beat thorough
ly and lastly fold in the stiff beaten
egg whites. If necessary, add more
milk to make a batter which will
pour easily.
It is not necessary in making i
waffles to separate the whites and
yolks of the eggs.
Strawberry Shortcake
(Serves five)
- 2 cups sifted flour.
3 teaspoons baking powder.
3-4 teaspoon sat.
i tablespoon sugar.
4 tablespoons shortening (prefer
ably butter or butter substitute).
About 2-3 cup milk or 1 or 2
tablespoons less of water.
Sift together the flour, baking
powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in the
shortening and mix lightly with milk
or water until like biscuit dough, j
Divide into two equal portions and
rcll each into a sheet about 1-2 inch
thick. Bake in shallow pan, one
sheet upon the after spread
ing the lower lightly with butter. Or,
cut the dough, after rolling, into
rounds as for biscuit, placing two
I rounds upon each other separated
by a thin layer of butter.
After baking in a rather hot oven
about 15 minutes, separate the two
layers. Spread each with butter
and well-sweetened berries. Serve
with whipped cream.
Other fruits, such as fresh red
raspberries, dewberries, sliced
peaches, oranges, stewed dried fruits,
or stewed rhubarb, are excellent for
shot cake.
Uses for Left-Over Pastry
In the making of pies as mall por
tion of dough, insufficient for an
other pie, is frequently left over.
This may be utilized in various ways
as follows:
Pastry Crisps
The dough may be simply rolled
thin, cut into squares, sprinkled with
sugar and cinnamon, and baked un
til crisp. These are very nice to
serve with sauce or other dessert, and
are more economical of time and
money than are most cookies or
1 cake.
Roly-Paly
Roll pastry until about 1-4 inch
in thiebness, cover with dried cur
rants or with fresh blackberries,
raspberries, or blueberries well
sweetened, sprinkle with flour, and
then roll like a jelly roll. Bake in a
moderately hot oven until well done.
•Serve with liquid sauce.
Cheese Straws
Roll pastry thin, cover with grated
cheese or with a highly seasoned soft
cheese; fold into thirds and roll
again into a thin, long sheet. Cut
into narrow strips and bake in a hot
oven until delicately browned. These
are nice to serve with salads.
Pastry Shells
Bake pastry in or on the outside
of muffin pans and fill these shells
with jam, preserves, or well-sweeten
ed stewed fruit. With or without
the addition of whiped cream these
form a delicious dessert
