spacing and twonty-tOiir inches should 

 lie allowed between rows. Water care- 

 fully in winter to prevent damping off 

 iind avoid spraying in dark weather or 

 it will start mildew. 



The calendulas are quite r()l)ust 

 Mowers and I would suggest starting 

 plants in 2',^-inch pots; then j)lant in 

 rows twenty-eight to thirty inches apart, 

 allowing eighteen inches between the 

 piants. This may seem needlessly far 

 .ipart for a time, but you will be sur- 

 prised to note how speedily the plants 

 will fill the space. A good carnation or 

 rose soil will be found suitjible for both 

 lupines and calendulas and neither 

 should require any stakes or supports 

 of any kind whatsoever. C. W.

 run your outdoor cro}>a you can take 

 tl>o hop out of them by using the follow- 

 ing method: 



Scatter a poisoned bran mash out in 

 the surrounding fields early in the morn- 

 ing — it takes from five to seven pounds 

 to cover an acre. The poison bait may 

 !'<• made by using the following propor- 

 tions: Fifty i)ounds of bran, alfalfa 

 ni(';(l or mitldlings and two ])Ounds of 

 I'aris green or white arsenic and two 

 pounds of salt. Mix all these thor- 

 "Uglily. Take one ounce of the 

 ilit'.'ipest lemon (>xtract and ]iour into 

 .1 bucket of water. Stir the water into 

 'lie bran and poison, adding more water 

 until the bran bectmies thoroughly 

 moistened and crumbly. Scatter broail- 

 '•ast over the iiif(>steil fields early in the 

 morning while the dew is on the grass.
