HOW TO DESTROY THE PEST

, in number. I’hcse beetles appear
early in the spring, soon atter the po
tato plants have started their growth,
but though they do some damage di
rectly, it is to their young, the reddish,
fleshy "bugs” that the bulk of the "in
jury is due. These are hatched from
groups' of orange yellow eggs that will
be found soon after the appearance of
the parent beetles, vvhieh deposit them
on the under side of the potato leaves
or on other plants that chance to be
growing in the immediate vicinity, it
ia usually the appearance of these
"bugs” in serious numbers that first
calls the attention of J.he grower to
tho -aft that something must bo done
to cave the" crop.
Remedies.
The remedy most generally used in
treating for these insects consists in
tho spraying of the plants as soon as
the first grabs begin to hatch, with
some poisonous salstance, usually Par.
is green mixed with water. Several
.other compounds have been put on the
market which are equally effective,
and perhaps possess some advantage
over that named. Among them rnay
be mentioned Arsenate of Lead, either
as sold by Chas. Warren Davis, Au
gusto, ila., under the name of Swift’s
Arsenate of Lead, or by John B. Dan
iel, Atlanta, Ga., ui-ucr the trade name
of Dispureno, which seem to possess
certain advantages over the I’aHs
green in fineness and adhering qual¬
ities. At a rule, however, compounds
put up in packages and sold for tlic.se
purposes under fancy names should be
iooked upon with considerable su«pl
< ion, as they arc often nothing more
than Paris green or some other well
kLQwjj iuseciicigti adulterated with
nome worthless material, iu order that
a greater bulk may be sold for the
same price, and at the- same time leave
ft handsome margin to the “nmnufac
turor.”
Spraying.
in t’s application of these sub
stances o.;c ounce of the Paris green
or a somewhat larger of the
Arsenate of J-ead or Dinparene should
be weighed out for each six gallons o

Should ha thoroughly wet or stirred up
with a fin,ail quantity of water before
being diluted. Tho spraying will have
to be uone, if the field it; one of con
-siderable ext ml by means of a spray
pump, of which a great many forms
are manufactured and sold, and of
which the c'ui.-i requisite perhaps is
tin- at!:-/iimc-nt of a thorough agitator,
The poison sinks rapidly through the
water, in which it. is not dissolved but
only suspended, and unless thoroughly
stirred will be applied in very uneven
strength and some damage may re
suit. It is not necessary that a very
thorough application be made, as is
the case when spraying for scale in¬
sects, etc., since the young grubs col
leet, as soon as hatched, on the
more tender portions of tire growing
plants and are pretty certain to be
reached by the poison if these merely
arc sprayed. It is very often necessary
that two or-more applications be made,
as the young hatched from eggs laid
at'tei a p'.r.ut ia spryaed may find snf
ficient. food on the shoots, that have
grown after the application of the
son - a >‘.d will not on that account be
rect'e-J by it. at least, not until all the
tendorcr : , or ti ons are eaten away, and
a good deal of damage done.
In J ma] l patches, as in a garden,
where potatoes are not raised for the
market, and in which cases it often
happens that the owner lias no suit
able pump, some other means may
used for the application of the poison,
A god way is to mix a small tosspon
.-..j H f jj. e Barii. green into a bucket
ful of water, and by means of a whisk
iucorn, or even a whisp of straw on
a stick which is stirred about in tlm
bucket and tl.cn siiaken over the plant.
a very good job on a small scale may
he done. The use of the small com
pressed air purr-pa that are quite com
monly used in spraying whitewash or
disinfectants is not recommended.
These is no proper means provided for
gafRcient agitation, and unless the
purr.;; is constantly shaken to insure
the continued mixture of tho poison,
very poor results may he expected.
Some growers prefer to apply the
poison in dry form, and this method
ha s certain advantages over the spray

Information Wanted.
Owing to the rapid spread of this i«.
sect in recent years tho exact bound¬
aries of its range in the state are not
at present known, and it has been re¬
ported tilts season from localities con
siderably separated from any previous¬
ly known points of Infestation. It is
frequently asked of this office just
what.portlons of the state arc infested,
and how soon it may bo expected to
appear in localities at present, free,
In order to obtain more complete
knowledge on this subject, it lias been
decided to ask any one who has had
any opportunity for observation to
answer either or both of the following
questions:
(1.) Does the Colorado Potato Boo¬
tle occur in your locality?
(2.) If so, how long has it been
known ther.e?
An answer to these questions ad¬
dressed to State Entomologist, Atlan¬
ta. and coming from any part of tho
state will be of value to us, and it is
earnestly requested that any one inter¬
ested will reply.

FEEDifJG AND CARE OF HOGS,
Some peojjfe have an Idea that ai*
most any sort of kitchen slop is good
enough for a hog, and it is a common
thing to give them stale, sour slops
that have stood for hours. But this
should never be done. Let their food
be wholesome and sweet, whether ob¬
tained from kitchen or dairy; let it o«
fresh and clean.

water; bat do not conclude that, be
cause mud and filth are natural io
him, he will thrive on them. Stair,
surface water breeds the germs ot
cholera and other diseases, and hogs
that are allowed to use it aie liable to
contamination. Give them clean water
in something so arranged that they
cannot get their feet into it.
Corn should not be supplied too
bountifully, as its tendency is to over
heat the animals. When fed sparing
ly and along with grasses, it makes an
excellent ration.
A farmer who if; looking for gooil
results rora liia swine, will not allow
them to run and feed along thu
public highways, where the germs may
be conveyed to them by diseased bogs
that have previously gone trial way.
The host way to save a herd in which
cholera has appeared, is to immediate'
ly separate the well front the sic-k.
The old saying is ‘ an ounce ol‘ pro
ventivo is Worth a pound of cure.’ 1
Men of large experience have given
their endorsement to Chloro-Xaptho
leum as a cheap, powerful and non'
poiuoncue disinfectant,
The ns.-' of this excellent remedy

cine,
Another important thing in the care
of begs is to see that they have good
bedding, often renewed, so an to keep
it as clean an possible. As soon as
the old bedding lias been removed and
burned, tlm premises should lie well
disinfected with Cidoro-Naptholeum,
or some other good disinfectant,
-Many cures have been tried for liog
cholera, but the surest relief from this
3iead scourge lies In prevention. There
arc- many good disinfectants. One
of the best is Ghloro-Iyapthaleum, an| l
the fret* use of lime. . A good solution
is 40 or 50 parts of water to one of
CMoro-Naptholeuin. Take a large
bucketful of this solution and tlior
oaghiy spray the animals and sprinkle
the floor of the feeding pen.
The Bacteriologist of the Iowa State
Board cl Health in May. 1898, made
the following statement as to hog
cholera:
“This organism v.as found to be
especially susceptible to the action of
Cliloia-Naptholeuiii:
“One.part in 250 killed growing cul¬
tures In ten hours. One part in 500
pro’,’ i-DU'd development.
"Dry, but virulent, preparations of
this germ were killed in 24 hours by
immersing in water containing one
part in 4Op.”
Always lemember tiiat in t'ne rais
ing of hogs cleanliness and careful at
tention arc very necessary to secure
Ihe i)(*4,t results, both as to the hculth
fulness of tho animal and the resu'/,
ing excellence of his-flesh for food.
