iUsmg Fish Oil
. .
~in Poison Spray
Needed as Spreader and
Sticker in Treatment for
Gypsy Moth.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuiture.)
Among the problems incident to
gypsy-moth control work are those of
applying poison sprays effectively.
Lead arsenate is the spray most used,
but with it is needed some other sub
stance as a spreader and sticker, pre
ferably some material that will make
the spray adhere to the leaves
throughout the season in spite of rain
or other weather conditions, Many
different substances have been tried
for the purpose—soap, glue. casein,
molasses, gelatin, glucose, flour, and
various oils.
Best Results From Oils.
Experiments carried on by the bu
reau of entomology of the United
States Department of Agriculture
have shown that, of these substances,
the oils, especially linseed, fish and
corn 011, gave by far the best results.
Linseed oil is the most satisfactory of
all. but it is also expensive; and when
after numerous experiments on trees
at various stages of growth, it was
found that fish oil gave almost as
good results at a much lower cost, it
was felt that fish oil could be recom
mended as an economy in large-scale
control operations,
Fish oil mixes practically as well
as linseed oil with lead arsenate, and
is nearly as adhesive. Foliage
sprayed with a fish-oil mixture as
early as the first week in June was
found in September still well covered
with the spray, although some rain
had fallen. The use of either oil, but
especially fish oil, makes ‘t possible
to reduce with safety the proportion
of lead arsenate used, and to start
spraying operations sooner, even
though the foliage is small and likely
to grow, sinpe the quantity of poison
that adheres remains effective. A few
experiments have also indicated that
fish oil is a good adhesive to use with
bordeaux mixture or a combined lead
arsenate and bordeaux mixture.
Details of Tests.
Details of the experiments conduct
ed at different times with various ad
hesives are given in Techn'cal Bulletin
111. T, published by the United States
Department of Agriculture. The work
was done by Clifford E. Hood, asso
ciate emtomologist, who is the author
of the bulletin. Copies may be ob
tained upon application to the United
States Department of Agriculture,
Washington, D. C.
No Treatment Known for
Eradicating Corn Smut
Unfortunately, there ils no treat
ment known for corn smut. It ean
be reducec somewhat by growing the
corn on land that has not grown corn
for some years and by cutting off and
carrying out of the field any smut
balls that form. These should be,
buried or burned to destroy them.
Ordinarily, they aré allowed to go
with the cornstalks to the feed yards
where they become incorporated with
the manure supplies. This happens
to be a good place to preserve them
and they go back to the land when
the manure is applied.
If the cornstalks are left standing
in the field, the smut balls become
incorporated with the soil when the
land is plowed or disked and rein
fection occurs when the corn is
grown. There isn't any remedy for
it except to reduce the smut balls all
you possibly can by destroying them
and keeping them out of the feed
supplies,
Early Soil Preparation
Insures Big Wheat Crop
Timely preparation of the ground is
one of the principal factors in insuring
a good wheat crop. Early prepara
tion aids in conserving soil moisture
and in the development of nitrates in
the soil. When it is possible to plow
or list immediately after harvesting
the wheat crop, the land should be
disked early and then plowed as sooL
as possible. After the land has been
plowed or listed, it should receive suf
ficient cultivation to destroy all weeds
and volunteer grain,

Veteran Placer m l
Picks Up Nugget
John E, Perrett, veteran prospector
and placer miner, struck It lucky in
Potato creek, west of Spearfish, 8. D,
when he found a ten-ounce gold nug
get, valued at $250, The nugget, says
the Omaha World Herald, Is more
than four Inches long, about two
inches wide and almost half an inch
thick, Kor its size, it 1s sald to be the
purest one ever unearthed in the Black
hills, A few finds like this would give
a prospector more than a grub stake
for his year's work, Perrett says. Mr,
Perrett has been a resident of the
Black hills for more than 406 years,
and he has prospected more or less
during that time, His present claim
is located on Potato creek, where he
has lived for the last 19 years. Pota
to creek has yielded many gold nug
gets In the past, but it is doubtful if
any has equaled this latest find.
Contrary to the general opinioa,
“ays Mr. Perrett, a placer miner or
progpector does not depend for his
grub stake and wages only on the
gold he finds, but he also washes out
such valuable metals as tin, tantulum,
columbine, copper, tungsten, shelite
and mica.
King George's Name
The illness of King George was be
ing discussed, when James interrupted
to ask the last name of King George.
“Well,” said his mother, “that is a
long story,” thus shielding her igno
rance of the fact. ‘Wait until tomor
row,” said she, “and I will tell you
about it.” \
James did not forget the promise of
a story and on the following day re
minded his mother of it.
“Oh, I already know his name.,”
said brother William, *I read it in the
paper last night, and it's ‘George V
Rallies."”
Topheavy
A visit to a farm is always a time
replete with things of interest for
children from the city. Animals are
especially a source of wonder. The
fact that ducks could swim on top of
the water in the pond thrilled two
tittle fellows.
It was all very well until one duck
suddenly did a nose dive and disap
peared.
“Oh, Buddy; that duck lost his bal
ance and fell in, and he’ll drown if
we don’t get him out!” one of the two
cried in distress.

“Qh, by lionizing her husband.”
The highest bidder at a United
States marshal’s sale in Portland,
Maine, bought a towboat for $7,500.
He sold it for $70,000.
