- Another Oil Producer. -Another good producing well has
been struck by the Dayton and Darke County Oil and Gas company, on the George Welbourn farm, six miles northeast of Union City, which gives promise of exceeding the flow of the well recently drilled in on the Jesse

INGROWN TOE NAIL
How to Toughen Skin so Nail Turns Out Itself
A few drops of "Outgro" upon the skin surrounding the ingrowing nail reduces inflammation and pain and so toughens the tender, fcensitive skin underneath the toe nail, that it can not penetrate the flesh, and the nail turns uaurally outward almost over night. "Outgro" is a harmless, antiseptic manufactured for chiropodists. However, anyone can buy from the drug store a tiny bottle containing directions. -Advertisement.

Tobacco Spray Kills
" J Hff.l A t:
valine auu mciuu rvpuia
The melon or cucumber aphis is abundant in Indiana every year and does a great amount of damage largely because no attempt is made . to control it before it is too late. Watching the young plants and spraying with a tobacco extract as soon as the first aphis appear is necessary to successfully comDat the insect, says Prof. J. J. Davis, head of the entomology department of Purdue university.
Aphids or plant lice are sucking
insects and can not therefore, be controlled with an arsenic spray. The melon aphis infects the undersides of the leaves and must be "hit" with the spray to kill. They soon increase to enormous numbers if not checked and curl the leaves, making it much more difficult to reach them. Care should be taken to spray the undersides of the leaves, which can be done by using a three to four-foot spray rod fitted with a good nozzle on a rightangled joint. Further the application should be made with a good pressure so as to more effectively, reach all parts of the plant. The spray mixture is made up of three-fourths pint of 40 per cent nicotine sulphate, four to five pounds of soap and 100 gallons of water. For small lots, 1 and onehalf teaspoonfuls of the nicotine sulphate and one ounce of soap is about the right amount for a gallon of water.
SOY BEANS SUBSTITUTES FOR CLOVER
Many Indiana and Ohio farmers are wondering what to do with fields where the clover has failed. If the stand is rery poor an excellent substitute is the soybean, says J. B. Park, professor of farm crops at the Ohio state university. It will save breaking up the rotation by substituting one legume for another. It will make a good yield of hay that is equal to alfalfa or it will make a seed crop that has a greater cash value per acre than corn. If the seed is not sold it can be fed to livestock and will be equal, pound for pound, to commercial oil meals. Fifteen to twenty bushels per acre is a fair yield on good land. Why the clover failed is not always easy to say. That it has died or looks very sick on many fields is the plain fact. Lack of lime in the soil, diseases, insects, and late freezes, all of these and perhaps other causes alone or in combination may have contributed to the undoing of the unhappy clover.
Sugar Keeps Bordeaux That granulated sugar will keep Bordeaux mixture from deteriorat
ing is the discovery of the Oregon
Agricultural Experiment station.
It is well known by orchardists
that Bordeaux becomes almost
worthless unless used shortly aft
er being mixed. THis trouble can be overcome by adding one-eighth
ounce of granulated sugar dis
solved in water for each pound of
copper sulfate (blue vitrol or blue
stone) used. When sugar is used in the proportion mentioned, the
spray mixture will not spoil on ac
count of a .break down or delay on
account of rain.
For a 200-gallon tank of 6-6-50 Bordeaux, which will require 24
pounds of bluesfone, dissolve three
ounces (seven heaping teaspoons)
of sugar in a little water and add
slowly to the tank of spray, agitat
ing until thoroughly mixed. Too much sugar must not be used. For small amounts of spray, dissolve one well rounded, but not heaping teaspoon of sugar in one quart of water, then use at the rate of onehalf pint of this solution for each . pound of bluestone going into the amount of Bordeaux required.
TIMELY HINTS
It is best for the amateur to buy his pepper plants. Set them out after danger frost is past. Set the plants according to the size of the variety. Ordinarily, only a few plants will be grown in the garden of average size. Set eighteen inches apart in the row and rows two feet apart. Attention might well be given to growing beets, carrots and parsnips of better quality for market. People are fast learning that there is a difference in quality in these crops due to variety and methods of growing.
Early Minnesota and Golden Bantam are good early varieties of sweet corn, while Country Gentleman and Evergreen are leading main crop kinds. Although not generally realized sweet corn loses its flavor and sweetness in a few hours after being pulled. Consequently it should be gathered and husked only a short time before it is cooked. Work done in a soggy soil is work poorly done. It is bad for the soil and hence bad for future cultivation, and it is bad for the seed planted and the plants transplanted. Care must be exercised to make sure that the surface soil, for at least three or four inches in depth, is comparatively dry before garden operations are begun or resumed. When wet soil is worked it becomes lumpy and remains so very often throughout the season. It does not yield itself readily, if at all, to the surface cultivation that is Intended to produce the pulj verized condition commonly known as dust "mulch." "It Is a terrible indictment of our modern civilization when this great country is in the period of what almost might be called economic chaos because of our great surplus food supply, while across the seas, in both directions, almost half the world is suffering for want of food." Henry C. Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture.
RED CLOVER INJURED
Clover Leaf Weevil Damages Clover
Crop in Many Western Ohio and Eastern Indiana Counties The Lesser Clover Leaf Weevil again promises to do serious damage to red clover in several western Ohio and Eastern Indiana counties. The worms began hatching late in April, according to T. H. Parks, extensionentomologist of the Ohio College of Agriculture. They feed in the growing tips of the branches, in the sides of the stems at the bases of the branches and in the
newly developing head. Last year they stopped the growth of the
crop in Shelby and Miami counties. Ohio, by the middle of June. This year the damage is expected to be greater, due to the freezing back of much of the clover in western Ohio and eastern Indiana in April. It will be necessary to cut the hay crop earlier than usual to prevent loss of tonnage in infested counties. Last year experiments showed that cutting the hay crop June 17, which was earlier than the usual practice, gave the highest yield in Miami county. This year clover growth is expected to stop in Clark, Champaign. Miami. Shelby and Darke counties early In June, at which time the field should be cut for hay to prevent greater loss. It does not infest alfalfa or sweet clover. Alsike has not been seriously damaged.
Eggs Keep in Lippincott's Egg Preserver Low priced eggs may be kept for months in a solution made of one part of Lippincott's Egg , Perserver and nine parts of water, preferable clean, boiled and cooled rain water. It is best to use infertile eggs, but fresh clean eggs gathered- daily and placed in the perserver solution keep well. ' The perserver and the water must be thoroughly mixed. A five gallon jar will hold 15 dozen eggs. It is not necessary that the jar be filled with eggs at one time; a few may be added to the jar eachfday. Infertile eggs can be secured after the roosters have been separated from the flock for two weeks. See Whelan for Lippincott's Egg Perserver.
Sell Cockerels Young Is Specialist's Advice The only hope .of poultrymen to realize on cockerels is to sell them as soon as they reach a marketable weight, which is one and onequarter to, one and one-half pounds. The price goes down rapidly after the young bi?ds begin to reach the market, says G. S, Vickers. poultry specialist of the Ohio State " University. ' - Pullets that show a low vitality are slow to grow, are unprofitable to keep and should also be market-' ed at the earlies opportunity. In selecting the birds to sell the poultrymen are advised by Mr. Vickers to sell all birds that are long-legged, long - necked, crowheaded, cross-eyed, shallow-bodied, and roach-backed and to keep for breeding stock only those birds that are short-legged, deep bodied, thick-necked, and that have a well balanced head and large prominent eyes (bug-eyed). Birds'of the latter sort are early maturing and make fine breeders and prolific layers.
Beat the Cucumber Beetles The striped cucumber beetle, that pest of the pickle patch, can be controlled, says T. H. Parks, entomology specialist of the Ohio State university, when the following methods are followed. Mix thoroughly one part of calcium arsenate and 20 parts by weight of land plaster or gypsum. This "mixture should -be applied by means of a duster or by a tin can with a perforated lid every few daysJrom the time the plants come up until they have become so large that the beetles cannot seriously injure them. The beetles will not stay near this dust, therefore, if thoroughly applied the cucumbers will not be eaten by the pests.
