While Fern is so scarce and expensive why not use Leucothoe? Same is 

 exceptionally fine this season and will go twice as far in making up sprays.

advised if there is anything better than 

 tobacco stems to exterminate the green 

 fly. If so, what? How should it be 

 used, and where can it be secured? I 

 now have a crop ready for sale. The 

 quality is good, and the heads large. I ' 

 am surprised myself at the success I 

 have had with the first crop, but I 

 have had all sorts of trouble with the 

 green fly. B, E. E. 



Tobacco stems as a fumigant are now 

 almost entirely discarded. They make 

 a foul smell, and when they are used 

 there is great danger of scorching 

 lettuce leaves. There are now a num- 

 ber of good nicotine preparations which 

 are vastly preferable to tobacco stems. 

 K you use steam you can paint the 

 pipes with a nicotine extract. This 

 also can be evaporated over wood al- 

 cohol lamps. There are other nicotine 

 preparations in the form of paper. 

 These latter are handy, but, unfortu- 

 nately, variable in quality. C. W. 



Columbos, O. — E. B. Roberts, now at 

 36 West Fourth avenue, will take pos- 

 session of a 200-acre farm next spring 

 and plans to devote part of the tract 

 to hardy flowers for the market.
