Mr. Lark Aaka A Small Favor
deer mr. editor:? .
piese use yore influence with the (
department of agger-culture to get j
my son, scudd lark, back into the (
c. c. c. camp in the lower part of the
etate. he was excused for something
he done and has never benn called '
back.
<
he newer meant to take the super's <
ford, he only thought he would try it
out for a few hours, and when he run
into that tellygram post, it was not .
his fault, as the tellyfoam people put
it in the ground too close to the high- !
way. they ought to be sued for malpractice
ansoforth. i
i
he was not out of the camp bui. 9
hours, and had the ford not of run
into the aforesaid post, he would
?ot of benn out of the camp without
leaf of absence but only 14 hours,
that ought not to be bad enough to
have a fine feller turned off about;
scudd is a nice boy except when he
has benn forced to look upon the cup ]
when it is red ansoforth. I
as to the monney which was missing (
by his bunk pardner in the camp; he ,
knows nothing about it. that guy
owed scudd 3$ for cash loan 4 weeks (
befoar but he did not collect it beioar 1using
the car of the super, and besides ^
that, his pardner didden't have no t
monney to be stole, he stayed broke
mought night all the time.
i have rote our congressman and
my wife has rote her sennator and
i have asked the postmaster here to
rite hon. jim farley and the county
farm demmon-strator to rite the seeker-terry
of aggerjculture, all in behaff
of our son, scudd so if you will
touch up his character favvorable
throu yore oollums, i believe he will
be replaced back again.

and if you get our darling boy back
in the c. c. c. camp where he can be
hell down and forced to behave hisself,
yore corry spondent, mr. mike

streets in the future free of charge
and also get some subcriptions for

set down all of the time, they have
lost all of their ennergies and can't

dr. green seems non-plussed with
this mallady. he has not subscribed

j\nt Control Requires
More Than One Pouon
Ants become a constant annoyance
at this season of the year because of j
' the damage they do to lawns and I
flower beds and because of their pre- :
-ence in the kitchen and pantry. ,
Because there about 95 kinds of j
ants known in North Carolina, their
control is a different problem. What!
is effective against one kind of ant
is not always effective against anI
other.
Dr. C. P. Metcalf, head of depart,
ment of zoology and entomology at
i , State College, recommends that the
i insects be destroyed in their nests. If
they occur in lawns or in rotten logs,
, the ants may be eradicated by using
f calcium cyanide or carbon disulphidc.
j Calcium cyanide is a deadly poison,
but may be handled out-of-doors by
any responsible person. It should be
scattered over the nests at the rate of
J about two ounces per square foot and
then worked into the soil with a
trowel.
Carbon disulphide, being more ex'
plosive than gasoline, should also be
* handled carefully. To use this corepound,
make small holes with a

Some ants are attracted by sweets 1
, and others by fats, Dr. Metcalf points
i out. To make a sweet bait, boil together
*one pound of sugar, one pint
'of water, and 125 grains or arsenate
of soda until the mixture is thoroughly
disolved. Then add one tablespoon
of honey.
To make a bait for those ants

! Keep all baits out of the reach of
children and irresponsible persons.
