SLUGS AND SNAILS
A GOOD BAIT. With six pounds of coarse bran mix a quarter of a pound of Paris Green. Shake the poison over the bran by means of a tin with holes in the lid, stirring all the time so that it is thoroughly mixed. This may be stored dry. When required for • use, moisten some of the bran with water in which two tablespoons of treacle have been dissolved. Half oranges with the pulp scooped out make excellent slug traps. Simply place cut side downwards, tilt one.side so that the slugs can enter, and examine every morning.
