dinary Plates Are All the Tools
Required for Experiment.
It is a very simple matter to test
wed wheat.
Take an ordinary plece of blotting
paper, put it on a plate, fold it over
like a book, wet it, and put in between
the folds one hundred seeds. Cover
over with another plate for about
three days, being careful to always
keep it wet. At the end of six or sev.
en days you can tell just what per
centage will grow and just how much
is weak and dead.
This is worth a great deal of money
to wheat growers.
Buying Orchard Trees.
In buying your orchard trees be
careful that they bear a certificate of
Inspection and thereby lescon the dan-
ger of introducing om your premises

Oats for Turkeys,
Oats are just as good feed as you
want for turkeys, but feed them your
self and don't let the turkeys wallow
through the oat flela.

are about the same size, shape and
color as gypsy moth egg clusters, but
the hairs are somewhat coarser, more
crinkled, the whole cluster more loose
ly constructed, and the eggs more ex:
posed. As a rule, also, the eggs are
deposited on a network of silk on or
near the old cocoon, which is often on
a leaf which is also fastened to a twig
by silk threads. Gypsy moth eggs are
usually laid on a solid surface except
in case of great abundance. There is
a difference in the structure of the
oges of these two moths which will
generally servo to fix their identity,
but even entomologists have been mis
taken regarding them.
