POISON BAITS WILL KILL OFF CUTWORMS White Arsenic or Paris Green m Prove Efficient Insects Art Especially Fend ef To matoes, Cabbage, Lettuce and Other Vegetables ? Th?y Are Voracious Feeders. (Prepared br the United States Department at Asrlenltom.) Cutworms can readily be controlled by the use of poisoned bait, the United States Department of Agriculture has demonstrated. This Is the wajr to prepare and apply tha poison: To ons bushel of dry bran add one pound of white arsenic or perls green and mix thoroughly into a mash with four gallona of watar. In which baa been stirred one-half gal lon of aorghnm or other cheap mo lasses. This amount will be suffi cient to treaty four or five acres of cultivated crops. After the mash has stood for several hours scatter It in lumps of about the sire of a marble over the fields where the Injury is beginning to appear. Put It about the bases of the plants which have bees set out Apply the mash late In tha day, so as to have the poison In place ssound the plants before night, when the cutworms are active Apply a second time if necessary. Cutworms destroy hundreds of thousandt even millions of dollars' worth of crops every year throughout the Untied States. They especially attack tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce and other vegetables that have been started under glass and transplanted. Cutworms sometimes appear in great numbers In the spring and early sum mer, and frequently do devere injury before their ravages are noticed. Their method of attack la to cut off the young plants near the ground.
