Nicotine Spray Cuts Apple-Washing Cost Each year apple grower* of the nation spend about $17,500,000 in controlling the codling moth ? the greatest amount spent for controll ing any one crop pest?but a part of this expense can be eliminated by changing from a lead arsenate in secticide to a newly developed nico tine spray, says J. O. Howell, en tomologist of the State College Ex tension service. With lead arsenate, in general use now, the farmer pays to put it on( and also pays to wash it off when the apples are sold. With the nico tine spray, the washing job may be eliminated or simplified, Howell ex plained. The new insecticide, developed by the U. S. Department of Agriculture | and proven successful in experi menu, calls for one pint of 40 per cent nicotine sulphate, five pounds of Wyoming bentomle, and one quart of soybean oil for a 100-galion full-strength mixture. The benlonite is a fine clay that causes the nico tine sulphate to adhere to the fruit. However, the extension entomolo gist explained that the entonite does not mix readily with water, and for that reason the following pro cedure Is recommended: Kill the spray tank with water to the tup of the agiutor. Pour in the nicotine sulphate before the motor is start ed; then with the agitator running, pour in the bentonite slowly and follow with the soybean oil before the Unk is filled with water. Howell said orchard tesU show ed that the same number of sprays per season with nicotine gave bet ter control of the codling moth than did lead arsenate. There is a grad ual "build up" of nicotine on the fruit after the first spray, which makes it possible to reduce the quantity in later sprays. But in the relatively long interval between the last spray and harvest, the nicotine residue drops * below objectionable figures. The bentonite residue is sometimes conspicuous enougli to require washing or wiping, but this is rarely as difficult as the removal of heavy residues of lead arsenate, especially when used with "deposit builders." Chilean Pavilion At Fair is Opened Dedication of the Chilean Pavilion at the New York World's Fair, on Sunday, May 21, marks the first of ficial public appearance of Alberto ' Cabero, the new Chilean ambassa dor to the United States. Ambassa dor Cabero, who just arrived in the United States to take up his new duties in Washington, will be the principal speaker at the dedicatory ceremonies. The Chilean Pavilion, a gleaming structure of steel, glass and concrete, occupies 24.000 square feet of land scaped area in the colorful Court of Nations An 1,-shaped structure, two complete faces of the Chilean Pavil ion are mirrored in a beauiful crys al-clear pool and through wide panes two stories in height, a giant mural painting by the Chilean artist Camilo Mori, is clearly visible from outside the building. Of course. Natural Chilean Nitrate of Soda is an important part of the Chilean Pavilion. This natural prod uct, used 111 Southern agriculture for more than one hundred years, is major product of Chile. The signifi cance of the natural origin of Chil ean Nitrate is cleverly and interest ingly emphasized Visitors to the Chilean Pavilion will meet two real friends, Uncle Natchel and Sonny. These two char acters, who in newspapers, farm pa pers. over tlie radio and on calen dars, have been featured in the ad vertising of Natural Chilean Nitrate of Soda, are present in life-size fig ures which occupy an important spot in the ground floor of the Pavilion. Many new aspects of the Chilean Nitrate industry are shown?for in stance the extent to which it helps to finance the purchase of Chile of American products, and the fact that it is a large factor of Panama Canal tolls. Chile paid toll on 4,235,000 tons of shipments during 1937. She bought some $24,600,000 worth of fi nished goods and raw products, in cluding cotton, from the United States during the same year. During the past ten years more than one third of all Chile's purchases were made in the United States The manner in which Chile's im portance as an American market is visualized is one of the World's fair's many interesting exhibits. Elaborate animated dioramas and giant mural photographs are features of the ex hibit Iodine, a by-product of Natural A popular old rtddlf. "ir a cow and a half cost a dollar and a half, how many cows oould you buy for $10?," has a sequel now when dairymen are stopping to consider when one cow may be worth as much as live. Strange as it sounds, one cow all too often is worth as much as five! "One cow is worth as much as five " says Meade Siqpmers, head of the Dairy Department of Purina Mills, "when the one cow is fed and managed properly. Five cows producing 170 pounds of butterfat each per year will turn in a total of 860 pounds of butter fat, 593 pounds of which is required to pay feed costs. With only 257 pounds of butterfat left as profit, the owner has a net profit of $90.75 from his five cows. On the other hand. one good cow producin ; 435 lb ot butterfat per year requires only 178 pounds of her total production to pay her feed costs, leaving a profit oi 257 pounds of but terfat worth $90 75. This makes the one high producing cow worth as much as the other Ave. "It's an old, old story, but a true one, nevertheless, and the sooner dairy men make up their minds to sell the ?boarders' and low producers of their herds, the sooner their profits will in cn-ase. Cu t rid of poor cows," the Purina dairyman repeats, "and start feeding the food cows a complete, bal anced ration that will keep up produc tion " One GOOD COW I YEAR PRODUCTION 455 lbs C ' BUTTIRFAT a NKDID TO PAY PECO COST i FIVE po6r cows YE4RLY PRODUCTION PIP COW 170 LBS. ?UTTIBPAT k i 593 ?

It is an industry that annually turns out $2,000,000,000 worth of maga zines, newspapers, books, pamphlets, circulars and calendars and easily ranks among America's five leading businesses Reassurance to printing men was given lust week by Walter I) Fuller, president of Curtis Pub lishing Company, who told an indus try convention that no better tool for the whole job of strengthening the distribution system has been conceived In the future, he said, "though other mediums may be tried in the distraction of our times, print ing is destined to be the all impor tant factor in the distribution of goods from producers to the ulti mate consumer." Chilean Nitrate, vital to the health of humans, as well as livestock, is also interestingly included in the Chilean exhibit.

Institutes Campaipji A nationwide advertising cam - paign using newspapers, has been instituted by the Universal Credit Company to inform the public about the important business of automo bile financing. Mr. J. J. Tice, branch manager, announced here today. "Our campaign is purely educa tional," said Mr. Tice. It will discuss publicly the important business of automobile financing. A larger part of the income of the American peo ple each year goes into automobile installment purchases, simply be- I cause the device of credit provides | a convenient way to get new trans- | portation without the immediate outlay of considerable cash. "Although instalment financing plans have been available for many years, the public never has known except m a vague manner what con stitutes fair rates and good service in the field "It is estimated that there are now from 400 to 1000 different compan ies offering automobile financing i services to the public. "As a large national company op- I erating in this field, confining our business to Ford dealers exclusively we felt some time ago that the time had come to give the public an in sight into the whole business of au tomobile financing. We felt that if we could tell the public what ser vicos it is entithwl in and what char ges are fair for such services, we would be able to help car buyers discriminate in selecting a financing | serviUy- and help them to save mon- | cy. "Many car buyers have been de- j terred from utilizing their right to ! credit purchasing by the confusion | existing in their minds regarding credit methods and practices. The fact that emergency loans for rem edial purposes are entirely different from transactions involving the time sale income-producing or pleasure giving articles is not generally un derstood "It is to combat this needless ap prehension in the public's mind that we are throwing light upon the en tire matter of automobile credit purchasing "To describe the operation of a reputable financing firm, we shall present facts about our own com pany. We shall show that ours is a wholly legitimate and necessary business, performing an important economic service- at a reasonable charge, considering the risks involv ed "We shall show that our business is nation-wide in scope and that Uni versal Credit practices are standard Johnston Growers Study Conditions At The Plant * Seventy swine growers of Johns ton County have planned a trip to a packing plant at Richmond so as to study the effects of intestinal pa rasites, bruises, and feeding prac tices on the dressed carcasses and to see how the bodies are graded for soft .and oily pork lzed throughout the United States. "Finally, we shall trace the inti mate connection of automobile in stalment buying with the prosperity of the country, demonstrating that without the instrumentality of pur chaser credit, the automotive in dustry could never have risen to its present important' position." ?
