pie  of  a  strong  spring  which,  when  set 
free,  drives  down  into  the  ground  a 
set  of  sharp  spines  or  spears.  The 
trap  is  set  so  that  a  flat  piece  of 
metal  forming  the  trigger  rests  directly 
over  the  mole’s  run.  In  working  through, 
the  mole  raises  this  trigger  and  sets  off 
the  spring.  The  spears  dart  down  and 
pierce  him  in  the  ground.  It  requires 
very  persistent  use  of  these  traps  in 
order  to  rid  a  piece  of  ground  of  these 
moles.  Continuous  work  and  several  of 
the  traps  will  be  required,  but,  on  the 
whole,  they  have  given  us  better  results 
that  any  other  method  we  have  tried. 
Where  one  has  plenty  of  time,  he  could, 
no  doubt,  catch  the  mole  in  working 
through  the  ground  and  dig  him  up  for 
slaughter.  We  have  known  smart  little 
dogs  to  be  trained  to  do  this  work,  but 
most  of  us  lack^time  to  handle  the  trou¬ 
ble  in  that  way. 
Loss  from  Burning  Straw 
Will  you  take  up  the  matter  of  burn¬ 
ing  strawstacks  in  the  field?  I  would 
like  to  know  the  fertilizing  and  humus 
value  of  a  ton  of  thrashed  dry  straw, 
oats  or  buckwheat,  spread  on  field  where 
cut,  compared  with  value  of  the  same 
ton  of  straw  burned  and  ashes  spread  on 
the  field,  labor  not  counted  in  either  case. 
New  York.  c.  c.  G. 
The  comparative  fertilizing  values  of 
straw  are  given  in  the  table  below.

It  would  be  difficult  if  not  impossible 
to  give  any  financial  value  to  the  humus 
or  organic  matter  in  the  straw.  When 
the  straw  is  burned  the  nitrogen  is  lost 
and  as  we  see  this  is  the  most  valuable 
fertilizing  value.  The  lime,  potash  and 
phosporie  acid  are  left  in  the  ashes  and 
all  are  somewhat  more  available  than 
when  used  in  the  straw  without  burn¬ 
ing.  At  least  50  per  cent  of  the  agricul¬ 
tural  value  of  the  straw  is  lost  by  burn¬ 
ing.

A  Chute  for  Tile 
Iii  some  parts  of  the  country  there  is 
quite  a  revival  in  tile  drainage.  The  war 
stopped  most  of  this  work,  but  now  there 
is  renewed  effort  to  get  the  water  out  of 
wet  land.  One  of  the  jobs  connected  with 
such  drainage  is  unloading  the  tile  from 
the  wagon  and  distributing  it  along  the 
ditches.  The  Agricultural  College  of 
Ohio  thus  describes  a  device  which,  it 
says,  was  worked  out  by  R.  L.  Walker,  a 
farmer  of  Lorain  County,  Ohio  : 
It  is,  in  effect,  a  tile-sized  trough, 
sloped  down  from  the  back  of  a  wagon, 
so  that  a  load  of  tile  can  be  slid  down  it, 
one  by  one  and  end  to  end,  and  laid  out 
on  the  land  along  the  line  of  the  proposed 
ditch,  as  the  wagon  is  driven  slowly  for¬ 
ward. 
The  trough  is  simply  a  2x6  8  ft.  long, 
with  2-in.  boards  nailed  to  the  edges  to 
hold  the  tile  on  the  track  as  it  slides 
down.  The  top  end  of  the  chute  is  at¬ 
tached  by  a  half-inch  rope  to  the  tail  of 
the  wagon,  so  that  it  slopes  about  30  de¬ 
grees.  The  lower  end  is  carried  on  small 
■wheels,  about  a  foot  in  diameter. 
An  inch  board  3  in.  wide  and  3  ft.  long 
is  nailed  across  the  bottom  of  the  chute 
where  it  touches  the  wagon,  this  to  pre¬ 
vent  overturning  on  rough  ground.  To 
prevent  breakage,  and  to  insure  even  dis¬ 
tribution  of  tile,  the  chute  should  be  kept 
full  at  all  times, 
Mr.  Walker  and  his  brother.  Harry, 
have  laid  with  this  device  34.000  tile  on 
30  acres  of  garden  land,  which  he  has 
drained.  Extension  engineers  at  the 
State  College  of  Agriculture  say  that  the 
idea  can’t  help  but  work.  They  are  going 
to  try  making  a  chute  without  wheels,  to 
see  if  it  won’t  slide  along  on  the  ground 
just  as  well.

Asters,  Aphids  and  Ants 
What  can  I  use  in  my  flower  garden, 
that  seems  to  be  infested  with  lice?  It 
was  old  sod  just  broken  up  two  years 
ago.  When  I  transplant  my  young 
plants  into  this  garden  they  are  strong 
and  healthy.  In  a  few  weeks  they  turn 
yellow  and  upon  pulling  them  up  by  the 
roots  I  find  dozens  of  little  white  lice 
on  the  roots.  What  would  you  advise 
me  to  use  in  preparing  it  for  planting? 
Bolton,  Mass.  e.  l,  r. 
There  is  a  rather  large  almost  globular 
bluish-gray  aphid  common  on  the  roots 
of  corn  and  very  destructive  to  that 
plant,  especially  throughout  the  great 
corn  belt  of  the  Mississippi  Valley.  This 
aphid  is  known  as  the  corn-root  aphid, 
but  it  also  occurs  on  the  roots  of  culti¬ 
vated  asters  almost  everywhere  these 
flowers  are  grown,  at  least,  in  the  north¬ 
ern  part  of  the  United  States  east  of  the 
Rocky  Mountains.  The  aphids  suck  the 
juices  from  the  roots  of  the  infested  as¬ 
ters,  and  the  plants  remain  dwarfed  and 
spindling  and  do  not  bloom  satisfactorily. 
Although  this  aphid  is  destructive,  and 
causes  much  annoyance  by  its  injuries  to 
the  plants  upon  which  it  lives,  it  has  a 
most  interesting  life.  In  fact  the  story 
of  its  life  sounds  almost  like  a  fairy  tale, 
and  were  it  not  that  every  step  in  it  has 
been  followed  by  careful,  accurate  and 
truthful  observers  we  might  find  it  hard 
to  believe  the  facts. 
This  aphid  is  dependent  upon  certain 
ants  for  its  existence,  and  consequently 
it  lives  in  very  intimate  relationship  with 
ants,  more  especially  with  a  small  brown 
ant  generally  spoken  of  as  the  “cornfield 
ant,”  ( Lasius  niger  rar  Americanus) . 
In  the  Fall  the  ants  gather  the  aphid  eggs 
and  take  them  to  their  nests  and  care  for 
them  during  the  Winter  months.  In  the 
Spring  the  eggs  hatch  and  the  ants  then 
take  the  young  aphids  and  carry  them 
to  the  roots  of  certain  weeds  along  which 
the  ants  have  previously  built  tunnels. 
Here  the  aphids  insert  their  beaks  into 
the  tender  roots  and  suck  up  the  juices. 
The  aphids  soon  begin  to  secrete  drops 
of  a  sweet  material  known  as  “honey- 
dew,”  of  which  the  ants  are  very  fond, 
and  which  they  use  for  food.  Thus  the 
ants  find  their  reward  for  their  solicitous 
care  of  the  aphids  and  their  eggs.  Hater 
when  .the  corn  and  asters  appear,  the 
ants  transfer  the  aphids  to  these  plants. 
It  is  evident  that  the  ants  are  really  re¬ 
sponsible  for  the  aphids  attacking  the 
asters,  and  any  method  which  will  dis¬ 
turb  or  destroy  the  ant  colonies  will  also 
reduce  the  number  of  aphids. 
The  soil  in  which  asters  are  grown 
should  be  plowed  or  spaded  early  in  the 
Spring  and  kept  absolutely  free  from 
weeds  by  frequent  cultivation,  in  order 
to  break  up  the  ant  colonies,  and  to  pre¬ 
vent  the  ants  from  finding  any  succulent 
plant  roots  upon  which  to  nourish  the 
aphids.  If  the  common  weeds,  crab 
grass,  purslane,  smartweed,  pigeon  grass 
and  others  are  kept  from  growing  in  and 
about  the  borders  of  the  garden,  the  ants 
will  have  to  carry  their  pets  to  other 
feeding  grounds. 
Certain  substances  which  act  as  repel¬ 
lents  may  also  be  used  to  drive  away  the 
ants.  Oil  of  tansy,  oil  of  sassafras,  anise 
oil  and  oil  of  lemon  are  useful  for  repel¬ 
ling  the  ants.  A  little  of  the  oil  of 
tansy,  for  example,  may  be  worked  into 
the  soil  along  each  side  of  the  row  of 
asters,  but  it  should  not  come  in  con¬ 
tact  with  the  stems  or  roots.  Probably 
the  most  effective  method  of  control  is 
to  cultivate  the  soil  thoroughly  to  de¬ 
stroy  the  weeds,  and  to  make  life  as  un¬ 
comfortable  as  possible  for  the  ants  in 
that  particular  locality.

Storing  Cabbage 
We  are  interested  in  growing  cabbage 
and  storing  same  for  (Winter  use.  At 
present  I  am  considering  storing  cabbage 
inside  a  barn  where  cattle  are  kept,  and 
giving  plenty  of  ventilation  from  below. 
Last  year,  piling  directly  on  the  ground, 
much  was  spoiled,  evidently  by  heating, 
in-  the  center  of  the  pile.  I  am  planning 
to  store  20  to  50  tons,  and  must  have  it 
at  place  where  it  can  be  taken  out  In 
severe  as  well  as  mild  weather.  G.  L.  s. 
North  Lima,  O. 
In  the  cabbage  region  of  New  York  it 
is  the  practice  to  store  cabbage  largely 
out  of  doors.  It  is  never  stored  in  large 
piles,  however,  for  fear  of  heating  and 
rotting,  as  you  have  suggested.  When 
storage  is  done  in  barn  cellars  or  build¬ 
ings  especially  provided  for  cabbage  stor¬ 
age,  the  cabbage  is  piled  in  bins  made  of 
spaced  boards,  with  partitions  about  6  ft. 
apart.  In  this  way  sufficient  ventilation 
is  provided  to  prevent  heating.  Usually 
it  is  piled  directly  on  the  ground  and 
against  the  wall,  though  a  false  platform 
of  light  lumber  is  an  additional  benefit.

Washington,  D.  C.,  Sept.  26-28;  secre¬ 
tary,  Dr.  W.  C.  Deming,  983  Main  street, 
Hartford,  Conn. 
Responding  to  a  call  issued  by  the 
Governors  of  seven  States  who  are 
alarmed  by  the  “greatest  slump  in  wheat 
prices  in  50  years,”  500  delegates  repre¬ 
senting  agricultural  and  manufacturing 
interests,  met  at  Chicago,  June  19, 
for  a  two-day  conference.  The  aim 
is  to  stabilize  the  market.  Speakers,  ac¬ 
cording  to  the  official  program  include 
Governor  Preus  of  ’Minnesota ;  Samuel 
Gompers,  President  of  the  American  Fed¬ 
eration  of  Labor  ;  Alexander  Legge,  Presi¬ 
dent  of  the  International  Harvester  Com¬ 
pany  ;  F.  Edson  White.  President  of  Ar¬ 
mour  &  Co. ;  Royal  S.  Copeland,  Senator- 
elect  of  New  York  and  Senator  Capper 
of  Kansas. 
The  bill  providing  for  a  new  Ranger 
School,  a  branch  of  the  New  York  State 
College  of  Forestry  at  Syracuse,  to  be 
located  near  the  side  of  the  old  building 
at  Cranberry  Lake,  in  the  Adirondack.?, 
has  just  been  signed  by  Governor  Smith. 
Each  year  an  increasing  number  of  ap¬ 
plicants  were  being  refused  admittance 
to  the  Ranger  School  because  of  lack  of 
accommodations.  This,  together  with 
the  hardships  suffered  by  students  dur¬ 
ing  cold  weather,  made  it  imperative 
that  a  new  building  with  more  mod¬ 
ern  accommodations  and  capacity  large 
enough  to  meet  all  demands  he  erected. 
The  school  is  located  on  1.800  acres  of 
forest  land,  where  practical  reforesta¬ 
tion  and  the  growing  of  trees  are  taught. 
The  protection  of  forests  against,  fires, 
fungi  and  other  tree  enemies  is  part  of 
the  course.  The  new  building  will  have 
accommodations  for  70  students,  also 
quarters  for  the  teaching  staff,  drawing 
rooms  and  laboratories.  Material  will 
be  hauled  to  the  new  site  on  bobsleds 
during  the  Winter  and  the  actual  erec¬ 
tion  of  the  building  will  probably  begin 
next  Spring.  The  Ranger  School  is  de¬ 
signed  to  furnish  a  preliminary  forestry 
education  to  qualify  the  student  for  the 
post  of  forest  ranger,  or  forest  guard  and 
other  positions  in  the  management _  of 
forests.  The  course  covers  a  period  with¬ 
out  any  vacations  from  March  to  De¬ 
cember.  thus  giving  the  str  lent  forest  ex¬ 
perience  in  all  seasons  of  the  year.  Some 
students  take  this  training  before  enter¬ 
ing  the  regular  professional  course  at  the 
College  of  Forestry,  Syracuse. 
The  Spingarn  medal,  given  annually 
for  the  most  notable  achievement  by  an 
American  citizen  of  African  descent,  was 
awarded  June  17  to  Dr.  George  w  ash- 
ington  Carver  of  Tuskegee  Institute.  Dr. 
Carver  has  become  known  for  his  work 
in  agricultural  chemistry  and  for  his 
lectures.  Dr.  Carver .  developed  165  by¬ 
products  of  the  peanut  and  115  of  the 
sweet  potato ;  has  made  potash  and  ehma- 
berr.v  meal  from  the  ehinaberry  and  made 
a  tonic  for  stock  food  from  vegetable 
products.  He  also  devised  a  dressing  for 
canvas  shoes  and  white  and  colored 
washes  from  clay ;  has  used  okra  fiber 
for  making  paper  rope  cordage,  straw 
matting  and  carpet,  and  has  made  2U 
varieties  of  laundry  blueing. 
Rose  Hoppers 
What  spray  can  I  use  to  destroy  the 
hoppers  on  the  under  side  of  rose  leaves? 
Hannibal,  N.  Y.  31.  H. 
Rose  hoppers  may  be  controlled  by  the 
use  of  pyrethrum  or  Persian  insect  pow¬ 
der,  blown  on  the  under  side  ^  of  the 
leaves  while  they  are  wet.  Whale-oil 
soap  solution,  1  lb.  of  soap  dissolved,  in 
five  gallons  of  water,  is  also  effective, 
as  a  spray,  or  any  of  the  tobacco  ex¬ 
tracts. 
“Oh,  no!”  soliloquized  Johnny  birter-

get  a  rap  over  the  knuckles,  but  if  the 
baby  eats  his  whole  foot  they  think  it’s 
cute.” — Ladies’  Home  Journal.
