Each individual •ottony mass contains about 3,000 eggs md frequently the young develop in meh numbers as to seriously weaken ind not infrequently kill the tree. These insects may be controlled this rammer, before they have done much n.lury by spraying, according to Prof, f. J. Davis, head of the Entomology Department of Purdue University. Probably the most effective spray is whale-oil or fishoil soap and nicotine, prepared by dissolving one pound of he soap in five gallons of water to which is added one ounce of 40 per •ent nicotine sulphate. The spraying must be thorough as this insecticide tills by coming in contact with the inject and applications should be made ibout two weeks after the first young ire observed hatching. We anticiiate the hatching to occur about the niddle of June. Careful watch should be made to determine the time of latching and if there is any question wigs can be mailed to the Department of Entomology, Purdue Universiy, Lafayette, Indiana, or persons •ontemplating spraying can learn the late by sending their names and adI Iress to the above department. , Kerosene emulsion is also effective igainst these young scales but is difll•ult to prepare. A ten per cent emulsion for a summer spray is prepared is follows: Dissolve one pound of com- ! nond laundry soap, or a half pound of whale- oil or fish oil soap, in one galon of hot water. Add two gallons of terosene while the soap solution is dill hot and then thoroughly churn for » or 10 minutes, or until it presents the ippearance of a thick cream and no onger separates on standing, by pumpng the mixtures back into itself with , i spray pump. To this add 17 gallons >f water and thoroughly churn. Soft i water softened with sal soda, must be ! used. A high power sprayer Is essential or the best results and thoroughness is necessary.

-'IVE HUNDRED NEW AUTOMOBLIES SOLD EVERY DAY IN STATE Indianapolis, .lune B.—Five hundred new automobiles were sold in Indiana every day the last six months, ending June 1. Used car dealers averaged 550 sales a day. More than 400,000 licenses were issued, an increase of more than 60,00 ft! over the same period last year. To every automobile in the state there are 67.3 persons. These facts were revealed today in a survey of the records in the office of Secretary of State Ed. Jackson where the licenses are issued. Appromimately $3,000,000 has been received by Jackson in license fees. This money will be used in the construction and maintenance of roads by the state highway commission. Last year the fees amounted to $2,596,515. i Overland transportation both pas- J senger and freight, is growing the' records show. The use of both var-j ieties of automobiles increased. There J were 337, 090 motor cars in Indiana during the first six months of last 1 year. Os these 302,250 were pleasure.' cars. Jackson declared he is planning to open ninety two branch offices in the I state —one in each county seat. There are now 1 twenty six branch offices in the state and reports will start coming I in within a few days showing the actual number of automobiles in Indiana. LILAC HEDGES KILLED BY SCALE; SPRAY NOW TO CONTROL INSECTS Lilacs, red ozier and many other ornamental shrubs in the northern half of Indiana are heavily infested with oyster shell scale this year. | The young scale are now hatching and control by summer spraying is possible, if promptly applied, say Purdue University entomologists. The scale began hatching about May 24 at Lafayeette and May 29 at Hammond, and spraying should be done about 10 days or two weeks | after the first young arc observed. In other words spraying in the vicin-'

Ity of Lafayette should bo done bo- i fore June 10 but not earlier than June 3. Tho material to use is i whale-oil or flsh-01l soap with nicotine. One pound of the soap should bo dissolved in 5 gallons of water to which is added one ounce of 40 per cent nicotine sulphate. Shrubs can ba sprayed with a bucket pump or larger outfit but care should be taken to spray the branches thoroughly as this insecticide kills only by coming in contact with the insect. ' ' 1 - "■ 1 ROTARIANS AID IN ) KEEPING BOYS IN SCHOOL Los Angelos, June B.—Twenty-five thousand boys and girls were kept In school through the efforts of Rotary clubs throughout the country, when for various reasons these students had made up their minds to quit and go to i . work. Hugh Van der Walker of Ypsilanti. 1 Mich., chairman of the International Rotary Committee on Boys Work, presented this statement as part of his report to the International convention in session here. The Rotary "baik-to-school” movement, which started-"* with the Rotary Club of Blackwell, Oklahoma in 1920, Is now a*part of the work of every Rotary Club in the country. One hundred and fifty cities In the country put on a ‘‘Hoy’s Week celer ’ bration, Chairman Van der Walker stated. More than a thousand clubs now have active committees looking a particularly to work among the boys. ’ Following the report of the chairman of the committee, Thomas Sheehan, 3 president of the Durham Duplex ComI pany of Jersey City, stirred the con--1 vention to cheers with his address 1 on the boy as a potential citizen and the Rotarian’s responsibility for the boy. Mr. Sheehan was introduced to ’ the convention as an Irish immigrant boy who had worked as a newsboy and railroad section hand and had become one of the big business men of the 3 country.
