It has a dark fetallic- blue underbody and head, and its wings are marked with yellow and red. This beetle lays its eggs on the tender asparagus shoots, as shown in the drawing. The only control at this time is to keep the shoots cut every day, thus removing the .eggs before they can batch.

ECONOMICAL—Very little juice can boil away in such a short boil, so you get up to half again as much jam or jelly. EI30 Still another beetle which attacks asparagus is the twelve-spotted beet le. It is orange-colored, and has six black spots on eaclT wing. Once the cutting period for aspar agus is past both of these beetles can be controlled by spraying or dusting with arsenate of lead. Use three lbs. of arsenate of lead to 50 gallons of .water for spraying. When dusting mix the arsenate of lead with four times as mqch hydrated lime. I Hints On sons I Wife Preservers.

Dept, of Agriculture^ A weeder is preferred but the level harrow or dia mond toothed harrow, may be- used with care. ' When spring grain crops and fall wheat which have not been seeded down are up 2 to 4 inches the -weeder ' may be used, preferably with the rows, in the afternoon when plants are not so brittle.
