SOW BUGS. 



J. K. wants to know how to get rid 

 of sow bugs. We know of one man 

 who solved this question by turning 

 his hens loose in the houses in sum- 

 mer time. He says the hens enjoyed 

 the feast and their output of eggs 

 was considerably increased. Another 

 found air slacked lime scattered 

 around an effective remedy. Crude 

 petroleum has also been recommend- 

 ed, it being applied to the wood work 

 and places where the bugs hold their 

 conventions. But the hens will no 

 doubt do the work quicker and clean- 

 er and give a vote of thanks for th? 

 opportunity.
