•
Unfortunately the backyard veget-
able grower has some difficulties to
overcome. It will not be all pleasure
and profit which he must look for-:
ward to because there are innumer-
able insects and fungus diseases
which cause' much worry and trouble
and necessitate the use of .extraordin-
ary methods to prevent or control.
Most of these troubles may be over-
come by spraying the plants with
remedies which can be secured from
seed stores and other firms hand-
ling them.
The following is a list otethe.•tmore
common vegetables' and the insects
and' plant diseases' attacking them
with remedies or preventives..
ASPARAGUS. Beetles. Blue, black
or yellowish colored, about one-half
inch long, which appear early, in May
and feed on the young shoots. Keep
the bed closely cut in the spring or
allow poultry to run through it. After
cutting season is over, spray' with
arsenate of lead: Encourage the
lady bird bottle which destroys many
of these insects. •
Anthracnose or Pod Spots. ,Brown
or reddish spots on the foliage and
Pods. Found on low damp ground.
Plant only seeds which have no signs
of the disease.' . Pull up and burn
diseased •plants as they appear.'
CABBAGE, CAULIFLOWER, AND;
BRUSSELS SPROUTS. Root Mag-
got. A small whitish colored mag-
got -one-quarter of an inch long.
Looks something' like a grain, of
wheat, found' just below the surface
of the ground either° close to or on
the roots. They eat the roots, caus-
ing the plant to drop over. Apply
a solution' of corrossive sublimate
one -hal ounce dissolved in five gal -
bons of water, at the rate of half a
teacupful over each plant once a
week for five weeks after they are
set ' out, commencing three or four
days after planting.
Cut Worms and White Grubs.
Greyish white grubs which work at
the surface of the soil cutting off the
plants. They may be trapped by
spreading a mixture .of '.pison bran
over the surface of the soil close to
the plants. A pail of bran with:sufd-
cient paris green to highly color it,.
should `be moistened with molasses
until it crumbles readily in the.
hand. This moisture should be kept
on: the ground during the early pad.
of the season.
Worm. A small greenish worm
three-quarters of an inch long, which
appears quite early in the season.
Dust with pyrethrum or hellebore
powder when the plants have headed,
or dust with a teaspoonful of parts.
green mixed -with three tablespoonful
of flour when . young. A piece of.
burlap may be used for this purpose
or an empty can with holes: punched
;n the bottom.
Aphis, also called louse. Small
-reyish insects which multiply rapid -
They
may appear at any time in
tie season. Spray forcibly with a
enlu '�-made
from.steeping
one
hound of tobacco refuse in one gal-
lon of water. This solution may be
used on all plants on -which Aphis
are found.
PERSONALS.
Well-known Women.
Chatham, Ont.—"I was sisk,for about
four years. Got very weak, could not
eat to amount to
anything. I got.
''' very thin and had.
no strength at all.
I was Very much
discouraged at
times—thought I
was never going to
get better. «,
r could not walk a
block without feel-
ing all tired -out.
' I took different
l' medicines but did

not get the help I needed. A friend of
mine advised me to try Dr. pierce's Fav-
orite Prescription, 1 began to take it
with the `Pleasant Pellets' and by the
time'I had taken two, bottles I was well.
on the road to recovery, and in six months
I was entirely well. My appetite came
back end I gained in flesh. Now I am as
strong and healthy. as any one could wish
to be. I owe it all to Dr.'Pierceee med-
icines and I am glad of the opportunity
to give testimony in their favor; they
have done wonders for me,”—Miss
rHEILMMA PARIXERt 141 E. King St.
Chatham, Ont, -"I have taken Dr.
Pierce's medicine 'with good results. I
was weal{ and run down, loot my appetite
and got very thin. I took `Favorite
Prescription' and 'Pleasant Pellets' and
these two medicines built me up in a very
short space of time so that I felt as well
as ever, I found them to be all that is
recommended of them; they are good."—

Every woman who has backache, head-
ache, low spirits, sleepless nights, owes it
to herself to speedily overcome the trouble
before a breakdown caused prostration.

pared ,from roots and herbs with pure
glycerine, containing tonic properties.

atnd lack of ambition.
