Farm homes offer many more op-

'Though the farm home is less lim-

colors which it will be well to re-

What are good workroom colors?
Generally speaking; they are neutral
colors primarily, enlivened by a touch
of sunshine in the form of cream wall
paint or rich ivory curtains.
For the modern kitchen, for in-

which are eminently suitable: One is

Wise One. "You did, not play fair
with Carroll when you told him
Micky's airplane•Was AS well built as
his. It was not, and you know it!
Carroll knows it, and Micky knows it.
You were deliberately trying to shot -
ter a wonderful possession, self-confi-
dence. It's the 'I cans!' and 'I wills,'
that make the most out of life. Not
the 'I can'ts' and 'I won'ts.' "
Carroll's.mother's face was radiant.
"Thank you, dear, I'm so grateful,"
she smiled. "I guess all of us need
to be wakened up sometimes, had
never thought of my boy's sureness in
his ability in the light of self-confi-
dence before. I'll change my systen-i.

That was four years ago, and Car-

different one these four years, •

"Indeed I do!" she answeaed. "Too

learn the 'great differene, between

Controlling Insect Pests of
Roses.
There is scarcely a garden that is
not beautified by roses in greater or
less abundanee and the insect pests
are ever present to weaken the plants
and to destroy the foliage and floWers.
Fortunately, however, a little care and
the proper use of simple insecticides
will eliminate most of ,these troubles.
The common pests are the leaf -
eating insects, such as the slug and
the sucking insects, including aphids
or plant lice, leaf hoppers, and scale.
White grubs occasionally attack
plantings in new beds which were in
sod the previous year.
The rose slug is readily controlled
by arsenate of lead at the rate of one
half ounce of powder, or about eight
level teaspoonfuls (twice as much If
paste form is used) to a gallon of
water, and if aphids are present add a
teaspoonful of forty ,per cent. nicotine
sulphate. If slugs only are present,
the arsenate of lead may be applied as
a powder, either yore or mixed with
equal parts of air -slaked lime or dry
flour as a carrier. If aphids and young
leaf -hoppers only arepresent, spray
with a forty per cent, nicotine sul-
Pbate, one teqspoonful to a dallon of
water in which is dissolved an ounce
of soap. Applications should he thor-
ough, a forcible misty spray applied
and.care should be taken to reach the
undel•sides of the leaves. •
Scale insects, when present, occur
on the canes and give them a scurfy
appearance. DUring the winter 1
months the heavily infested branches
should be cut out and burned and the '
remaining canes thoroughly sprayed
just before the buds open in spring
with lime -sulphur one gallon of liquid
concentrate to eight of water.
