Unfortunately the growing of a garden is often hindered by the ravages of insect pests and by diseases which check the growth. Rotating the crops helps a gOOd deal in the matter of those maggots and worms which liVe in the groundd When we find that one cr0p is be-‘ ing bothered by a pest. we will plant something that this particu- lar pest will not trouble the next year. This is really the first thing to learn in gardening. It is a protm:tlvo rather than a corrective measure and is effective with the maggots which eat into carrOts, onions, turnips and radishes. One may grow onions year after year on the same ground provided this pest can he kept in check. “‘0 learned years ago from an old gar- dener a method which seems to work out very well in the matter. We get, fresh pine sawdust and sprinkle. along the rows after the onions are started so the rows can he followed. This is worked into the soil with the cultivating pro- cesses and seems to keep the mag- gots away. It also repels the fly which lays the eggs from which the maggot hatches. The cause seems to lie in the turpentine contained in the fresh sawdust. For those who are unable to get fresh pine savv- dust. it may be mentioned that a week solution of turpentine has been used and found beneficial. So much for the maggot mmstton. _ _ _ Controlling Posts and Diseases Owing to the death of the late Mr. J. McKech- nie, it is necessary that all outstanding accounts due to him be paid at once.

Strewberry Plente Men Peete When cutworms are. present in numbers in a strawberry patch or field many of the plants will will and dry up overnight. and on ex- amination will be found to have been cut oil at or just below the surface. They are smooth, cylind- rical caterpillars about an inch or more in length and of a dull color similar to the ground in whirh they hide. The poisoned bran remedy is the one now most used for the destruction of eutworms generally. The method of using it is described in detail in a new Dominion De. partment of Agriculture bulletin on strawberry growing. distributed by the Publications Branch of the Department of (lttawa Twenty pounds of hran, one quart of molasses. one-halt a pound of either Paris green or white ar- senic, and two to two and a half gallons of water, compose. tlm mix- ture. The bran and poison arei mixed thoroughly in a pail or wash- tuh while dry. The molasses is dissolved in the water and used to wet the bran and poison. stirring well to dampen the. mtxtum thor- oughly. For a small garden patch of strawberries a simple formula is one quart of bran, one teaspoenl‘ul of Paris green and one tablespoon- ful of molasses, with sufficient water to moisten the bran. As seen as rutworm injury is noticed the mixture should be. scattered thinly along both sides of the. row, after sundown. ln gardens a small quantity of the material may be put around, but not touching. each plant.
