■with grubs. If you have land that is 

 badly infested with the grubs and not 

 now occupied by any crops, I would 

 suggest using 1,000 pounds of kainite 

 and 250 pounds of nitrate of soda per 

 acre in spring. This will destroy a 

 large proportion of the grubs. Free 

 liming also acts as a deterrent. 



Carbmi bisulphide will destroy the 

 grubs if you bore holes fifteen inches 

 apart each way, with a pointed stick, 

 and drop a teaspoonful of the liquid in 

 each hole, immediately covering the 

 holes with soil. To go over a bed con- 

 taining 6,000 square feet in this way 

 would cost $5 or $6 for the carbon. A 

 pound can retails at 25 cents and 

 twenty or thirty cans would be needed 

 to do the job properly. Vaporite is an 

 English preparation, procurable here, 

 which comes in powder form and which 

 kills grubs and worms of all kinds. 

 Carbide can also be used and is quite 

 effective when the soil is damp; this is 

 also excellent for use in rat holes. 

 Slightly moistening it causes the for- 

 mation of a gas, which is quite deadly.
