Mrs. du Pont, whose marriage took place last
week, was Miss Katharine Clark, of Northamp

their Twenty-second street houso, which
is next door to tho famous house which
tho late Edmund Lewis left to his niece,
Mrs. Wheaton Vaughan, and which Is
occupied by her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Clifford Lowis.
A WHOLE bunch of Philadelphians left
i-thls morning by motor and by train
for Princeton to attend tho marriage of
Katharine Conger and Frank Clark,
which took place at noon at Morvon, tho
former homo of Commodore Stockton,
which Is now occupied by tho Bayard
Stoo'-tons, descendants of the Commo

ton, a sister of Bayard, you know, nnd
when her uncle and nunt proposed that
the wedding should take placo at tho old
family home she accepted gladly, and so
all tho family and friends havo gone up
that way, tho Hollinshead Taylors, Chris

By JOHN
THIS article gives formulas for dealing
with the numerous varieties of Insect

urged nt tho very beginning that users real
ize tho deadly character of these chemicals
ami handle them with the utmost cure, keep
ing bottles properly labeled, anil in a wife

varied species. Those havo true mouths nnd
nro best doted with n poisonous Insecticide,
except fruit that Is near maturity or foliage
crops, of which the follago Is eaten, such
as enhhngo, lettuce, brussels sprouts, celery.
The best poisons for general purposes are
ar.venato of lead. Paris green and hellebore.
Non-poisonous Insecticides nro effective In
Bomo cases ; of theso Persian powdor (Bu
hach). kerosene emulsion, whale oil soap,
fir treo oil soap, tobacco essence, and somo
of tho patent powders may be mentioned.

henco they nro not nffected by poison doses.
They can bo eliminated by contnet sprays
or powders, which aro skln-lrrltatlng
Among the agencies used arc kerosene
emulsion, tobacco dust, tobacco extract and
fir treo oil soap.
FUNOOH8 DISHASTS and some scnles
are treated with Bordeaux mixture, am
monlated copper lime sulphur solution nnd
flowers of sulphur.
TnKH Iioitmts are handled by cleaning
out tholr burrows with a stiff wire. Insects
that crawl up the trees are handled by
painting tho trunk thick with whale oil
soap solution nnd by bands o tanglefoot
or fly paper
Poison sprays should never be applied
to fruit trees In blossom ns they kill tho
boes nnd stop pollination
Liquids should be applied with spray
pumps, syringes (for flowers) or hand
sprayers Powders should bo applied with
bellows or perforated cans.
It Is always wise to spray In advance of
tho appearance of Insacts or other pests
as a means of prevention. This often kills
off the first brood from last season's eggs
nnd stops tho pest entirely for the seaaon.
In succeeding articles tho pests, Insect
or fungous, that attack specific plants will
bs described and tho remedies prescribed.
IloniJF.AUX MIXTUIin, so called from
Its origin In Franco, near the city of that
namo. Is a fungicide for black rot. blight,
mildew, rust, etc It can be bought ready
prepared In packages from one pound up.
with directions for use It Is prepared In
various strengths, the most usual of which
are 3-3-SO. 2-3-60. 2-2-50 and 1-1-00. Theso
mean Blmply the use of one, two or three
pounds each of blucstono (copper sulphate)
and fresh lime For small users the pro
portions may bo lime, one nnd one-half
tablespoonfuls; copper sulphate, ono table
spoonful, and one gallon water Dirsolve
copper sulphate In about half a gallon of
water and slake the lime in the other half
gallon, then mix two In a third vessel.
It should be strained and used fresh This
Is the best nil-round summer fungicide. The
2-2-50 strength Is good for general use In
the truck patch. For larger usage strong
Bordeaux Is made by using tho following
formula Four lbs. copper sulphato, 1 lbs of
fresh lime and B0 gallons of water. A
weaker solution Is mado by using a 3-4-50
solution, and a still weaker solution, for the
spraying of grapes and other tender plants,
by a 2-3-50 solution. Any proportionate
ratio of these can be reckoned out Dissolve
the copper sulphate separately In a wooden
vessel, and slnke the lime In another vessel.
Each of these solutions should be diluted
bofore mixing: otherwise undeslrablo chem
ical action results. Apply Bordeaux within
twenty-four hours nfter mixing the two so
lutions, since It deteriorates quickly. "Stock"
solution of copper sulphato and lime can bo
mixed and used as needed. The separato
solutions will not deteriorate.
When foliage Is growing and expanding
rapidly, It is advisable to make applications
of Bordeaux every two weeks
I.I.MII-sui.I'IlUIt Is another good summer
Insecticide and some prefer it It Is also
used as a winter spray for tho San Jose
and other scales It Is more trouble to pre
pare, as It must be boiled, for which reason
It Is best bought prepared. Tn general It Is
good to use llme-sulphur for fruit trees and
Bordeaux for garden crops. Llme-sulphur
Is diluted for winter one part to ten or
twelve of water the lesser strength be
fore and after real cold weather and for
summer use one part to forty of water
Home-made wash Place In a large kettle
20 pounds stone lime Add boiling water
and stir 15 lbs. flowers of sulphate. Stir
constantly, add 12 to 16 gallons hot water,
and boll for at least forty-flve minutes. Add
water to fifty-gallon total : strain carefully
and apply whll hot for best results in dor
mant spraying.
Self-boiled llme-sulphur solution for
peaches and plums Gradually add gal
lon water to twenty pounds stone lime In a
barrel When slaking well, sift In twenty
lbs. fin sulphur ; gradually add water, and
stir' constantly until a fine, paste la formed.

smaller quantities mix proportionately.
Kmtosnxi: KMl'I.MnX Is valunble for
destroying Insects which live on plants by
Mieklng tho Juices through a tiny beak. It
Is, therefore, known as a "contact" Insec
ticide nnd made according to tho follow
ing formula and directions-
Dlssolvo one-half pound of hard soap In
ono gallon of boiling soft (rain) wafer.
When tho soap is thoroughly dlssolxed, re
movo from llro and add two pallnns nf
kerosene. Agitate this mixture violently
by means of a force-pump, puinpimr tn
liquid back upon Itself until a tlmrough
Jelly-like emulsion Is formed on cooling.
This emulsion Is 66 per cent oil ana must
be diluted before sprnylng. For dormant
(or winter) application. 15 per cent solu
tion mny be used nnd can be prepared by
adding threo and one-half gallons of water
to each gallon of stock solution For spray
ing of plants In foliage, 7 to 10 per cent Is
as strong as should ho used Seven per
cont Is mado by adding eight and orfe-half
gallons of water to each gallon of st.ick
solution, and 10 per cent strength Is made
by adding five and one-half gallons of
water to each gallon of Btock solution.
NirOTINU KXTItACT Is nnother and
nonpolsonous contact spray. It can be
bought cheaply in concentrated form. A
home-mado substitute may bo prepared by
tinning gently for an hour one pound of
wholo or ground tobacco stems In one gal
Ion of water. This liquid Is mixed with
one to two parts of water. The spray must
hit tho hugs to bo of service
Home-made tobacco decoction Is mado
by steeping (not boiling) one pound of
tobacco stems In three or four gallons of
water In a covered vessel for two or three
hours Squeeze and strain off the liquid
and use as n spray. Soap suds added to
the liquid acts as n sticker and spreader.
Nicotine sprays when made properly will
not Injure the most delicate plant
AltSCNATIl OF LTIAD Is tho safest,
moat satisfactory spray material yet com
pounded It adheres to follago much longer
during rainy seasons; It will not Injure or
burn foliage; It remains In suspension bet
ter, and being whlto nlds tho operator in
tnorough nnd complete application. Ar
senate of lead may be purchased In dry
powder or In paste form Tho powder Is
not Injured by freezing oj drying out, and
mixes renClly with water The paste form
Is one-half water, costing twice as much for
freight or express charges
Arsenate of lead is used ono nnd one-half
to two pounds of powder to fifty pounds of
water or Bordeaux mixture.
For small use one tablespoonful of tho
paste or ono-half tablespoonful of the pow
der Is used to a gallon of water or Bor
deaux. If the latter Is used a combined In
sectlclfio and fungicide is developed at one
operation.
PAKIS nniin.V One pound to 100 gal
lons water must bo used with Bordeaux
mlxturo or with two or threo pounds of
lime added to prevent foliage injury
For small use. one tablespoonful of Paris
green, three tablespoonfuls of stone llmo
end three gallons of water or Bordeaux
With Bordeaux a combined Insecticide and
fungicide for all possible pests Is formed
HKLI.i:nonK One ounce to a gallon of
water Is a mild poison, used where there Is
danger of killing animals. It must be used
fresh
POISON MASK or bait Is used for cut
worms and some other Insects which do
great havoc at night In home gardens by
biting oft plants at roots. The formula
Is ono pint bran or cornmcal, one-half
teaspoonful Paris green or arsenate of lead,
chopped up juice and rind of half an orange,
molasses and enough water to make a
dough Scatter small lumps In the evening
about affected area. Highly poisonous, so
do not put In reach of children, fowl or do
mestic animals. Tho sour fruit or onion
flavor will deter birds and some animals
from eating the mash. It Is a good precau
tion to take up the lumps of bait early in
the morning. Another method Is to place
a ring of quicklime, bran and sugar about
each plant or nlong the row.
IinY SPRAYH Application of Insecti
cides and fungicides In dry form, known as
dusting, Is coming into general use to' pro
tect various crops. It can now be recom
mended for supplementary spraying In
orchards, and for many truck crops Is
especially desirable. The small grower
without a spray pump should dust his
crops. Dusting is not effective for dormant
spraying, but for summer application Is
helpful.
Dry arsenate of lead combined with sul
phur, with or without the addition of slaked
lime, controls chewing Insects and many
ttmgous diseases.
Potato growers can use the sprays to
advantage this season, saving many hours
of labor. Ten to fifteen pounds of dry
lead arsenate is mixed with eighty-five to
ninety pounds of finely ground sulphur for
best results. Small proportion of slaked
I lime may be used a a carrier &man quati.

that the.
friend be bad grown to love would return
fter a little He always enme back. He
hml never failed him So he began to hunt
nho.it for n spring beauty or a dog-tooth
,llet and for some tlmo he was careful not
to urnv very far away from whero the
..utflt bad passed
Ml that dav tl" cub remained in the
flower-strewn meadows under the slope; It
is crv pleasant In tho sunshine, and he
lo'und more than one patch of the bulbous
roots be liked lie dug and he filled him
self nnd he took n nap In the afternoon;
but when the huh began to go clown nnd tho
heavy shadows of the mountain darkened
the allev be began to grow afraid
Ho was still n very small baby of a cub,
and only that one dreadful night after his
mother hnd died had he spent entirely alone.
Thor had replaced motner, ami i.anRnon
bad taken tho place or i nor. so mat unui
now he had never felt the loneliness and
emptiness of darkness He crawled under
a clump of thorn close to the trnll, and con
tinued to wait, and listen, and sniff expect
antly The stars came out clear and bril
liant, but tonight their lure was not strong
enough to call him foith. Not until dawn
did he steal out cautiously from his shelter
of thorn
The sun Rave him courage and confidence
again nnd he began wandering back
tluough the valley, the scent of tho horse
trail growing fainter and fainter until at
last It disappeared entirely
That day Muskwa ate some grass and a
few dog-tooth violet toots, nnd when the
second night came he was abreast of tho
slope over which tho outfit had come from
the valley In which were Thor and Iskwao
He was tired and hungry, nnd he was utterly
lost.
That night he slept In the end of a hollow
log Tho next day he went on, and for
many days and many nights nfter that he
was alone In the big valley He passed
close to the pool where Thor and he had met
the old hear, and he nosed hungrily among
tho fishbones; he skirted the edge of the
dark, deep lake ; he saw the shadowy things
fluttering In the gloom of the forest again ;
he passed over tho beaver dam and he slept
for two nights close to tho log-jam from
which he had watched Thor throw out their
first fish. He was almost forgetting Ling
don now, and wns thinking more nnd more
about Thor nnd his mother Ho wanted
them. He wanted them more than he had
ever wanted the companionship of man, for
Muskwn was fast becoming a creature of
tho wild again
It was tha beginning of August before
the cub came to the break In the valley and
climbed up over the slope where Thor had
first heard the thunder and had first felt
the sting of the white men's guns. In these
two weeks Muskwa hnd grown rapidly. In
spite of the fnct that he often went to bed
on an empty stomach : and he was no
longer afraid of the dark Through the
deep, sunless canyon above the clay wallow
he went, and as thero was only one way
out ho came at last to the summit of the
break over which Thor had gone, and over
which Langdon nnd Bruce had followed In
close pursuit. And the other valley his
home lay under Muskwa.
Of course, he did not recognise It. He
saw nnd smclled In It nothing that was
familiar But It was such n beautiful val
ley, and so abundantly filled with plenty
nnd sunshine, that he did not hurry through
It. Ho found wholo gnrdens of spring beau
tics and dog-tooth violets. And on the third
day ho made his first real kill. Ho almost
stumbled over a bnby whistler no larger
than a red squirrel, and before tho little
creature could escape ho was upon It It
made him a splendid feast
It was fully a week before he passed
nlong the creek bottom close under the slope
whero his mother had died.
If he had been traveling along the crest
of tho slope he would have found her bones,

picked clean by the wild things. It was an
other week before he came to the llttlt
meadow where Thor had killed the bull
caribou and (he big black bear.
And now Muskwa knew that he was home!
For two days he did not travel two htin
dred yards from the scene of feast and
battle, and night nnd day he was bn the
watch for Thor Then he had to seek far
ther for food, but each afternoon when the
mountains began to throw long shadow ha
would return to the clump of trees In which
they had mado the cache that the black
bear robber had despoiled.
