NICOTINE KEEPS DOGS AWAY 



Spraying plants with diluted nicotine sulphate 

 will cause cats and dogs to avoid them according 

 to the U. S. Department of Agriculture. This 

 spray seems to be very offensive to animals and 

 should be used especially on evergreens at all 

 seasons of the year when dogs are liable to cause 

 injury. No doubt nicotine dust will give the same 

 results. 



FOR ACID LOVING PLANTS 



The apple pomace, or ground apple pulp which 

 is a waste or by-product of cider-making will 

 serve as a splendid mulch for rhododendrons, 

 mountain-laurel and other acid-loving plants, 

 \\Tites Alfred Hottes in Better Homes and Gar- 

 dens. Apple peelings and cores of course will 

 serve the same purpose.
