Milton, Delaware diana-Tufts football game. It was nec- essary to obtain more flowers, as the stock was cleaned up by noon. Herbert Heihl, of Wertheimer Bros., New York, called at some of the local stores last week. Bertermann Bros. Co. has been fea- turing a good Halloween window. A background of oak branches, fodder and pumpkins, arranged against a rail fence, with a foreground of witches, jack-o'-lanterns, black cats and yellow pompon chrysanthemums, made an ideal autumn setting. The city greenhouses and botanical gardens were opened to the public Oc- tober 29. There was an attendance of several thousand persons. E. E. T. EFFECTIVE SOW BUG EEMEDY. We have an acre or more of Aspara- gus plumosus under cultivation, but the stock is suffering severely through the depredations of sow bugs. In many in- stances the insects have eaten away ap- proximately one-third of the roots of the plants, and although we have com- bated them in half a dozen different ways the stock still suffers; and the bugs increase like a plague. Is there any real, up-to-date and sat- isfactory method known to you where- by this pest can be eliminated! D. E.—Ont. The usual methods employed in poisoning sow bugs, by means of mix- tures of corn meal or wheat middlings with sugar and Paris green, probably are among the various ways tried by the correspondent in combating these pests, so we enly mention the common methods in passing, and suggest a thorough dusting of both plants and soil with the best grade of pyrethrum powder that can be procured. This ma- terial is becoming rather scarce and is much higher in price than it was a year ago, owing to the war. W. H. T. SeweU, N. J.
