SNAPS1-1OT CUIL
SELF-TINFRS
You can take a picture of the family picnic and be in it yourself by using
a self timer.
THISquestion is often asked, "Ia
there any way that I can take a
snapshot of my friends and include
myself in the picture?"
There certainly is a way and a
simple one. Use a self timer.
.A. self timer ie a most fascinating
little gadget and almost human in
its Operation. It is an inexpensive
accessory that fits over the metal
button, or plunger, at the end of the
cable release, which you press to
take a snapshot with a folding cam-
era. 51 cannot, however, be used ute
less the camera is fitted with a cable
release.
Here is how It works. First you
locate your subject in the finder and
at the same time plan the space you
will occupy when you step into the
picture.
Suppose you want to take a pic-
ture of a group on a picnic or at the
beach. Yon will have to have the
camera on a tripod, table or some-
thing solid. Locate the group in the
finder -and be sure you can see the
spot you will occupy or you may be
among these missing when the
prints are returned.
When the lcens aperture is set at
the proper opening with the correct
shutter speed, the same as if you
were going to snap the picture your-
self, set the self timer for the length
of time it would take you to get to
your place in the grroup. Slip the self
timer over the button at the end of
the cable release and press the little
release lever on the timer, It starts
buzzing away, you rejoin the group
and then -click -it has taken the
picture and you're in it.
You can purchase a self tinier at-
tachment from almost any store
that sells photographic supplies.
They are not expensive and last a
lifetime,
Some cameras have Self timers
incorporated In the shutter oon-
struetion, so if you have this type of
camera and have never used the self
timer you have missed a lot of fun
and picture taking opportunftlpa.

Poison Controt of Potato Beetle
The best and cheapest poison to
use in the control of the potato
beetle to Eastern Canada is cal.
cium arsenate, at the rate of 1141
lbs. to 40 gallons of Bordeaux
mixture, the Bordeaux itself being
composed of 0 lb. copper sulphate,
4 lb, lime, and 40 gallons of water.
If the calcium arsenate Is used
alone in water instead of Bordeuax,
two to three pounds. of hydrated
lime should he added :to ea711 40
gallone. Should arsenate of lead
or Paris green he preferred to the
ealcillln arsenate as the Polson to be
used, two to three pounds of the
arsenate of lead, or one-half to one
pound of Paris green may be sub-
stituted in e•:rch 40 gallon barrel of
spray, Some growers prefer to ap•
Ply the poison In pon'de'r form, us•

arsenate of lead to 6 per s of
hydrated lime. Best restilrii in
dusting are secured when The tips

In spraying potatoes, the nnfson

the latter material is not only a
valuable fuegicltfe but repels the

flea beetles and leafhoppers. Two
or three applications in ca seesot:
;Gould give sufficient protection
from all insects. Potato beetles
ar't. usually found in the field before
the new trop of potatoes is even up
and they lay their eggs on the tind-
er-sides
2nder-sides of the leaves, When the
yellow masses of eggs are hateb•
ed is the time to make the first
application of the poison. • In
spraying, bath the upper and lower
surfaces of the leaves should be
covered with an abundance of the
material. When the plants are
small, 50 to 75 gallons per acre
and when the plants are fully
grown, 100 to 120 gallons per acre
is not too much at each application,
