A Few Ways of Protecting Stock From Stable Flies The importance of taking steps to prevent the breeding of stable flies rather than depending on protection of the stock, when the flies are full grown, cannot be emphasized too much. However, where this is not done the farmer is forced to resort to various means of warding off the Hies. Work animals may be protected largely from the pest by means of coverings. One type of cover'ng which has been found to be very ef fective and inexpensive consists of a blanket made of double thickness of burlap, so arranged as to cover completely the back, sides, and neck of the animal. The legs also are ■covered sometimes by means of old trousers slipped over the feet and tied over the back. Leather nets or strips of leather attached to the bridle also aid in keeping the flies from the head. The ordinary fly net has been found to fie of little value, as it only tends to displace the flies I temporarily and cause them to settle I in places not covered by the net. Completely darkened stables offer much protection from the flies, al ; though the resulting lack of ventila | tion is objectionable. The thorough screening of all windows and doors is much more desirable. When screened barns are used, care should be taken to brush the flies from the animals, when they are about to en ter, by means of nets over the door way or with sacks. Little can be done to protect range stock from the flies. On hog farms a freshly plowed trench offers considerable protection to the swine. The sides of these trenches may be smeared with pe troleum, which rubs off on the ani mals and acts as a repellent. The trench may be used also for pro tecting sheep, but the petroleum in their case is unnecessary.

Farmers Need Accurate Data on Market Conditions Traveling by faith rather than by sight has sometimes been recom mended as wise policy, but produce growers used to find it frequently and mightily disastrous when they followed it perforce, before the estab lishment of the crop and market re porting service of the United States department of agriculture. Os course, a few of them are still following the faith system of growing and market ing because they have not seen fit to use the eyes furnished them by te government reporting service,- and these are still planting, gathering, and marketing at random. But the majority are looking around and ahead, seeing what other sections are doing, finding where any shortage or surplus is likely to be produced, as certaining special advantages or dis advantages in consuming centers, and generally getting a forecast of the market from crop ana other con ditions, the country over. Thus the more farsighted southern potato grow ers take into account the volume and probable movement of the northern crop and the amount of the old crop I likelv to be left over until spring. Even the northern growers may put in a late acreage and top-dress the crop if the general situation suggests a shortage caused by a reduced acreage or by a hard spring frost in parts of the northern territory. Small Hen Houses Best; Low Ones Easily Warmed The size of the hen house should be governed by the size of the flock. From 40 to 50 seems to tie about as many birds as are safe to keep together. With flocks of this size from 4 to 5 square feet of floor space should be allowed to each bird. This will suffice i,n most cases where careful attention is giv en to cleanliness and ventilation. If the fowls are kept in smaller flocks more floor space to a bird will be needed. In sections where the climate is so mild that it is unnecessary to keep fowls confined, except for a few days at a time, less space to a bird should be sufficient. The smaller breeds, being more active and restless, require about as much room as the larger breeds. For the greatest amount of floor space .for the least cost a building should be square. Other things being equal, the nearer square a house is the less lumber it will take, ac cording to poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agri culture. However, it is sometimes out of the question to build a large house square. A building should not be so wide that the sun can not reach the back of the house, other wise it will be damp. Fourteen feet is a convenient width. Build the house as low as possible without danger of attendants bumping their heads against the ceiling, for the low house is more easily warmed than a high one.

RII H Address J. H. Bush, Pres,, Dept. 0-3 f D U OH motor CO,, Bush Temple, Chicago MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME Here I come again for a little ad vice. Is it all right for a girl, age 15, to accept a birthday present from a boy, aged 21, when she hasn’t been with him but a few times; such as jewelry? What must a girl say when a young man tells her that he is glad to see her? Should a girl, when she is going to the show, have on her hat and cloak if it is time to go when he arrives? Should a sister stay in the room when her sister ha*, com pany if she wants her to? What grade should a fifteen-year-old girl be in? lam in the seventh. Do you think it is nice to take dancing les sons from a man? I am crazy to teach music when I have finished in school. Do you think it is a good job? I am crazy about music. Can you give any information where I can get, “I Am Sorry I Made You Cry?” I want it real bad. Thanking you for advice. Lovingly, -JACK.” Circumstances alter cases. If the young man has any serious intentions, or on the contrary, if he just looks upon you as a nice little girl friend and wants to remember your birthday with a little piece of jewelry, it is all right. A clear understand ing is the main thing about presents when they are given. There is nothing special to say when a young man says he is glad to see you, just say “thank you, I am pleased that you are,” or any little polite remark not too gushing. Yes, you may have on your hat when the young man calls to take you to the show. It seems to be customary these days. Yes, if you wish, your sister to stay in the room with you when you have a caller, it is all right for a little while. She shouldn’t monopolize the whole evening, the young man came to see you and not her. He may not like the intrusion. So good manners will forbid her tarrying too long with you and he. It is rather hard for me to say what grade a fifteen-year old girl should be in at school, but the average girl should grad uate at the age of sixteen. It is perfectly proper to take danc ing lessons from a man teacher. Music is a very good vocation to take up, but it does not pay so well unless one is exception ally capable to teach it. I do not blame you for being crazy about music. You can get the song by writing to “Remmick Publishing C 0.,. New York,” and any other song you wish, old or new. I am a lonely Florida orphan com ing to you for advice, as I have no mother or father. I have only one brother and he is younger tan my self. We make our own living. I have light hair, grey eyes, fair complexion and 5 feet 5 1-2 Inches tall, weigh about 140 pounds, am 16 years of age, will be 17 in Jply. I have been going with a young man 22 years of age. about one year. He seems to be a right nice boy and has never mistreated me and always acts nicely when he is with me. He says he loves me, and will never marry any one if he can’t get me, and I know I love him, but I don’t know any of his family as he came from Georgia. But everybody say his fam ily are nice folks ana say they have a good recommendation. He has Uniform Grades for Farm Products Aids Marketing The work of the American Cotton association in developing economic re forms in the handling and market ing of cotton by the farmers is be ginning to bear substantial fruit, especially in the second largest cot ton producing state. I wish to pre sent herewith some of the practical plans which will go into active opera tion in Georgia when the crop of 1920 is ready for market: Federal Co-Operation The United States department of agriculture, under authority of con gress, now has the right to gather each week and publish as a bulletin a daily spot market for cotton at interior local concentrating points. It also has the authority to send its agents into the offices of the cotton merchants and ascertain from their books and invoices the prices they are receiving for the various grades of cotton they are shipping to mill consuming centers in this country and for export. Failure on the part of the cotton merchants to com ply with this demand subjects them to heavy federal fines. This work is under the direct ad ministration of the federal bureau of markets, which has recently open ed an office in Atlanta, where its agents will look after the cotton ter ritory in this section of the belt. If the local prices paid to farmers for all grades can be ascertained at different points promptly, and the selling price of such grades secured from the cotton merchants, it will not. be a difficult matter to ascertain whether the Georgia farmers are re ceiving the full market value for their cotton. The State Bureau of Markets Acting in thorough harmony with the federal bureau of markets and the economic measures of the asso ciation, the director of the Georgia bureau of markets is developing a new system to aid the farmers in this state. The director of the bureau, L. B. Jackson, has already opened up in Atlanta a special cotton de partment, with offices and sample rooms in charge' of first-class grad ers and staplers of cotton. No cot ton samples will be handled and graded except those which come in from a bonded warehouse. When a bale of cotton is delievered at any interior local bonded warehouse in Georgia, the manager in charge weighs the bale and draws from each side of the bale four ounces of cot ton to make the sample,. which is placed in a government franked en velope, together with the weight and number of the bale and name of the owner. This self-addressed franked envelope is dropped In the mail, and comes at once to the cotton depart ment of the state bureau of mar kets. The sample is then graded and stapled by experts In the employ of the state, and a complete record made of the matter. A certificate is issued by the bu reau officials incorporating the, weight of the bale, its grade, staple Lack of Sugar Is No Excuse For Failure to Can Early Fruits can be successfully canned without sugar, and vegetables re quire none. So, the wise housekeeper is planning to can as much or more than usual this year. Plenty of can ned vegetables reduce grocery and doctor’s bills and add pleasing vari ety to the diet in winter. Fruit can ned without sweetening can be sweet ened when it is used. Fruit juices, too, can be canned without sugar. Indeed, many people prefer to can them unsweetened, maintaining that the individual flavors are thereby best preserved. Part of the canned juices can be made into jelly next winter. Making jelly when the weath er is cool rather than when the mer cury lingers in the 90’s appeals to many housewives as a sane and sen sible procedure. Getting Ready If one waits until the fruit is half ripe before making any preparation to take care of it, there is loss of time, and the season of that particu lar product is likely to pass before all the equipment for canning is in readiness. One of the first steps is to order a canner, if you are planning to use one this summer. A wash boiler or lard can with a false bottom will hold the cans and process them effi ciently.* The work, however, can be done more easily with one of the commercial types of canners. As the stock is usually low when the can ning season is under way, it is well to select the kind you want in ad vance when therd 1 is a choice. The steam-pressure type is usually pre ferred for general canning, but the asked me to marry him, and on ac count of my not knowing his family I told him I would tell him later. He said he would wait a while for me, if I would marrv him then. Would you advise me to wait until I have the opportunity of meeting his folks, or wait until I get older or what to do? As I am an orphan will you please give me your best advice in the next issue of The' Tri-Weekly? Your ad vice will be appreciated. From an Orphan Girl. Y’ou write very sensibly about your love affair, and I think you are right to want to know the sort of man you are marrying. And it will not hurt to find out something about him. Perhaps you may be able to correspond with some member of his family through him, and get invited to see them. If you can, a visit will let you see who they are. But on the other hand, you are not marrying the iamily, and if the young man is a steadfast, honest and gentlemanl- he may make you the best sort of a husband. I am coming to you for some ad vice. I am a boy aged seventeen, and I am deeply in trouble. I am going with a girl aged seventeen, and I love her dearly, and she says she loves me best of all, but when we are in company she seems to t hink more of the other boys than she does of me. How often should I go to see her. and should I stay till after night? Would it be any harm to marry a girl if she lets me kiss her? Well, I will describe myself: I have black hair, blue eyes and dark complexion, and I am 5 feet and 10 inches tall and weigh 132 pounds. Do I weigh enough for my age? Thank ing you for your advice. DAVID. Perhaps the girl doesn’t care to have others know she is in love with you. It is not good manners to spoon and draw at tention to yourselves when in the presence of others. So the young girl is right to be nice to others. But if she slights you or ignores your presence, that is wrong. Do not call to see her but two or three times a week, because she may have other things she wants to do and it'is wrong to monopo lize her time. No, there is not much terrible harm marrying a girl you have kissed. If you feel that way, you shouldn’t kiss her. If you willfully break down the barrier then condemn the girl for it, you are not much of a man. But you are too young to marry. You should weigh at least ten or fifteen pounds more. The Eradication of Bugs In the eradication of bedbugs, coal oil, which you have been using, is almost always successful, provided it is properly applied. One must "track the beasts to their lair.” Pic ture moldings are very likely to be infested. The same is true of the backs of pictures hanging on the walls. In the bed they are usually found in the corners and dusty crevices. In the bed springs they may be found in the dust collected in the spiral spring near the attachment to the frame. In mattresses they are often found beneath the tuffs of cot ton. Fumigation is usually much less effective than the proper appli cation of coal oil. and location and then promptly mailed to the owner of the cotton. The cer tificate shows that the bale is a bonded warehouse bale and its de livery guaranteed when called for by any purchaser. The state bureau will also keep tab on all local mar kets and issue bulletins covering same. If the holders of the ware house certificate are displeased with local prices, the bureau will aid in securing bids from large cotton firms. Efforts will also be made to get farmers to offer their cotton in large lots, either individually or jointly, as better prices can always be secured for lots of single or mixed grades than in selling one, or at most, a few bales at a time. This system will be a great benefit to the Georgia farmers. Bonding Warehouses in Georgia The Georgia division of the asso ciation, the state bureau of markets, federal bureau of markets, the fed eral reserve bank of Atlanta, and the state superintendent of banks are all working in harmony and industrially pushing the movement to bond every local warehouse in Georgia under the federal warehouse act. Its adoption is simply the law easily complied with and but slight expense to the owners of the warehouse. The eco nomic advantage to the farmers, however, is tremendous in the bet ter marketing of the staple and in securing loans from local bankers if markets do not justify sales and funds are needed. A large number of these local warehouses will be bonded by September, and the sys tem will be vigorously encouraged until every warehouse storing cotton will be bonded and its certificates showing weights, grades and staples guaranteed under the law. Standard Cotton Grades In order to break off the confusion in having different numbers to rep resent the various grades by cotton firms doing business in this state, the Georgia division of the associa tion and the state bureau of markets will prepare and have introduced in the legislature, which meets in June, a bill to enforce the adoption of the United States standard grades of cot ton in this state. The farmers will then know exactly what they are sell ing and can keep fully posted on the ' markets. , These economic reforms are laying the foundation for an evolution in the more economic handling and market ing of the cotton crop. If backed by the farmers all over the cotton belt, great progress can be made in a very short time. Let the good work go on; there is certainly great room for improve ment, and this association will in every possible way aid the growers for better methods. Yours very truly, HARVEY JORDAN, Secretary American Cotton Associa tion. water seal and water bath are both popular with those who want a can ner which costs less money. If jars are needed, a supply should be laid in early. The tops of both the old and new jars should be gone over carefully and all the rough edges smoothed down with a knife. There is no danger then that they will cut the rubber. This is some thing that can be gotten out of the way before the season opens. Test Rubbers Carefully One of the make of rubbers which is to be used should be tested. A good rubber —one that will stand up under the heat which long cooking in the can entails—must possess elas ticity enough to allow its being fold ed and pinched without breaking, say canning specialists of the United States department of agriculture. An other test is its ability to hold thir teen pounds’ weight without break ing when this weight is suspended by a hook from the rubber ring. Whatever type of apparatus is used for processing or sterilizing, a number of utensils are needed for properly handling the product. These include five or six good porcelain sauce pans or those of some other material that is acid proof, with cov ers for use in handling and blanch ing acid fruits, two tablespoons, one set of measuring spoons, one wire basket or several yards of cheescloth for use in blanching, six wiping cloths, two hand towels, one duplex fork for lifting hot jars, and several sharp paring knives. Look over your supply and see if you have them in stock. SABBATH SCHOOL LESSON For June 13—1 Sam. 16:1-12 BY DB. MARION M’H. HULL Golden Text: "The Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon David from that day forward.” 1 Sam. Samuel mourned for Saul many days, un til rebuked by God. Since God had re jected him it was not right that His jrophet should brood over him in sorrow. Besides Samuel might have known that Saul s fam ily could not be God’s choice. Jacob, in blessing his sons, had promised the sceptre to Judah; Benjamin had no, right to it by birth or training. He was to be a ravining wolf, springing upon the prey in the day and dividing the spoil at night. Saul the Benjaminite, was true to form. How sig nificant then was God’s word to Samuel: “I have provided me a, king among his sons ” (Jesse, the Betlilehemite of Judah). -Go’”. Note Gen. 49:10, 27, and 1 Sam. 16:1. Saul had never been God’s choice. But Samuel was afraid to go! Never in his life before had he hesitated to do all the will of God and at once. Why should he be afraid of Saul now Did he not know that God had set Saul aside? And what was Saul apart from God? Ah, I’ll tell you why Samuel was afraid of Saul now; for he had never been so before. It was be cause of his defection from God on account of Saul. He had moped and mourned for Saul after God had set him aside; he had thus lost that intimate touch with God which was the source of his fearlessness and power before. Faith begins where fear ends, and fear begins where faith ends. The two are absolutely incompatible. Samuel s faith was failing because no longer fed by unbroken fellowship with God, and fear followed. , , T But God tenderly led him back. He was not ready to let go of Samuel. God is per sistently holding on to you long after you have turned Him loose. He didn t give Samuel complete instructions at once; but led him step by step. “Take an heifer with thee and say, ‘I am come to sacrifice: and call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will shew thee what thou shalt do; and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom 1 name unto thee.’ ” . ' . ~ , .. Was this deception? At first sight It might appear to be this; but a closer study will give an entirely different Idea. God was not ready yet to publicly proclaim the man of His choice; he was not ready for the office; he had to be prepared for it. The public anointing of anyone now would have thrown the whole kingdom into a civil war. The good of the whole would there fore not be conserved by publicity at this time. Samuel was accustomed to going from place to place to sacrifice, as occasion demanded, and it was nothing more than natural for him to visit Bethlehem for that purpose. Therefore he was told to go there and hold a sacrifice; this would not excite suspicion and the real and ultimate object of his visit could be accomplished without publicity. , There is a distinction between conceal ment and deception. It is never right to conceal a part of the truth if the purpose of such concealment is deception, or if the impression naturally created by such con cealment is false. Concealment of part of the truth is right and justifiable only when such concealment does not mislead. It is never right to tell anything but the truth; but it is not always necessary to tell the whole truth, if keeping back part of the truth does not mislead as to, even though it does not reveal, the whole truth. For example, here, Samuel’s visit to Betlilelieni was to perform a spiritual serviced This consisted in sanevtifying the people first, so that they might enter with him into a sac rifice to God, the object of which sacrifice was to consecrate to God’s service him who was to be prepared for the office of king. This was the whole truth. It did not cre ate a false impression to conceal part of the truth. They all were sanctified, they all took part in the sacrifice, they all (at least all of Jesse’s sons), saw the youngest boy anointed, but were kept ignorant tor a long time as to what the particular office was. But that ignorance was not a false impres sion, . „ . . It is a fine distinction you think? but you are intelligent. God expects you to use your intelligence, and never let the dis tinction be wiped out in your thinking or speaking. Think what the purpose and what the result of your concealment of part of the truth will be, and you will never go wrong. , „ God’s Way of Choosing The elders of Bethlehem «»viaent>y iiau guilty consciences, otherwise they wnul 1 rot have been so alarmed at the coming of the righteous judge and prophet. “Conscience makes cowards of us all.” But Samuel al layed their fears. He instructed them to sanctify themselves for the feast. He seems to have devoted himself particularly to Jes se’s family. They had inherited the fields of Boaz and of Eiimelech, and were proba bly the leading people of the town. Jeise had his sons come in—Eliah. Abina dad, Shammah, Quartus, Sextus and Septi mus. Eliah was a splendid looking fellow, and Samuel was fooled, as the people had been before, in selecting Saul for his fine phvsique. But God said, I have refused him. In tome way God made Samuel real ize ttiut physique didn’t make a man, any more than clothes do. God’s all penetrating eye looked deeper into his character. W e are learning some of this secret cf God’s. We like for men and women to look neat-- to dress so that their dress will not be no ticed, either for flashiness or sombreness — but in choosing thexh for positions of trust or for partners in life, we look deeper into what qualities of character they have. Sam uel had passed them all up—they must have been rather chagrined as one after another was told to step aside! He turned to Jesse, who had seemed to have an almost unlim ited supply of sons, and asked if there were no more. He had been confined to Jesse’s family by God’s direction. There surely must be more. Yes, there was a lad so young that he had not thought it necessary to call him to the sacrifice; he was out keeping the sheep. Bring him ■in then, said Samuel, we can’t sit down until we have him. So they waited ‘ until lie came running in—a youth of about fifteen, muscular, ac tive, sunburned, and with the curlish au burn hair (inherited from his great grand mother Ruth), the keenest eye, and the most attractive personality! “Arise and anoint him,” said Jehovah, “this is he.” And Samuel poured the oil, from the drinking horn he carried with him, on the head of tills attractive youth, setting him apart for some service, which neither the boy, nor his brothers, nor his father sus pected at that time; for young David Ben judah went back to the hills to tend the sheep, and Samuel went back to his home at Ramah. God bad protected his servant. He had directed him in the choice, and his mission had been accomplished without caus ing a ripple in the political situation. But David was a different man from that time forward, for when the anointing oil came upon his head it but pictured the real thing that had occurred—he had been anoint ed with the Spirit of God. The Spirit of God pushed him forward. So the original word means. It is used only in Judges 14:6, 19 and 15:14—0f Samson; in 1 Sam. 10:10, and 11:11—Of Saul; and here 1 Sam. 16:12—0f David. (Incidenetally this should settle the question of Saul’s conversion.) The Spirit of God pushed David forward. He was the force behind David (as behind Samson and Saul) enabling him to do what be had not force enough to do of himself. The subsequent story of his life amplifies this statement—lie had strength and skill given him to kill a lion and a bear and a boor (Goliath); he learned to be patient under persecution; he grew big of heart, and keenly sensitive to God and all that God had touched; he was willing to wait on God; he became skilled in music; and every thing in the out-of-doors became to him vibrant with God. This was the result of the forward push of the Spirit of God. On the contrary, Saul lost this through his disobedience. The Spirit of God "turned off” from Saul, and ■without the forward push he had had, Saul made no progress from that day. God is still choosing today those who shall do His service. “Ye have not chosen me, said Jesus, but I have chosen you,” etc. It is often in some obscure place, God finds the one He needs. Then God equips His chosen ones; the Spirit of God pushes them forward as long as they will go with him. If such an one refuses to obey, He turns off because they have turned off from Him. He is still pushing forward in the direction of His will, but you may have turned aside in the direction of your will, and therefore no longer feel the onward urge of His Spirit. Left to your self you are weak Indeed, and the easy prey of every evil impulse. God has chosen you. God is preparing you for some service. God will call you out when He needs you; He will equip you and push you forward to do His will, if you are willing and obedient. 23 Postage Stamps Cost Negro Long Prison Term For the theft of twenty-three 2- cent postage stamps, John Hawkins, negro, nineteen years old, will spend two to fourteen years in Indiana Re formatory.

OUR HOUSEHOLD CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE O.THOMAS For the Discouraged I don’t intend to preach to you this morning, but it is good to steal away from the anxieties of the pres ent and look over the past and see what God hath done for us, and what we have tried to do for God, by helping those who have needed us. Did you ever read "The Story of the Othei’ Wise Man?” It is one that you can never forget. Do you remember that Dr. Van Dyke, in his preface says of that fourth wise man, “All through his life he was trying to do the best that he could. It was not perfect. But there are some kinds of failure that are better than success.” Artavan, the Median, was a Magi, of the ancient priesthood of the fire worshippers. He called his friends and fellow students of Zoroaster to gether one night and told them of seeing a new star; it was visible only one night. This student, this Median nobleman and his three friends, Caspar, Melchoir and Beltha zar, after seeing this star once,' searched the ancient tablets, read the words of Daniel and computed the time for it to again appear, and they had decided to follow it and see for themselves and to worship the Prom ised One. He wanted his nine friends to go with him, so as to share the bless ing. But each one had an excuse. The first one answered much as the scornful did in Jerusalem, “Can any good come out of Nazareth?” Only this time the statement was, “No king will ever rise from the broken race of Israel, and no end will ever come to the eternal strife of light and darkness. He who looks for it is a chaser of shadows. Farewell.” The next was guardian of the royal treasure and his office held him. The next had a bride and as he could not take her on the strange’ long journey the quest was not for him. Another was unfit for hardship, but he had a servant he would send | with Artaban to bring back word. I The oldest, the one loving Artaban , best, lingered till all were gone and I said gravely, ‘My son, it may be I that the light of truth is in this sign that has appeared in the skies, and | then it will surely lead to the j Prince, and the mighty brightness, or it may be only the shadow of the light, as Tigranes has said, and then he who follows it will have only a long pilgrimage and an empty search. “But it is better to follow even the shadow of the best than to re main content with the worst, and those who would see wonderful things must often be ready to travel alone. lam too old for this journey, but my heart shall be a companion of the pilgrimage day and night, and I shall know the end of thy quest. Go in peace.” Artaban was left in solitude. He lifted the heavy curtains of the hall, passed between the dull red pill A Novel Way of Preserving Meat Has Been Invented by Dr. Sangioranni A novel and interesting method of preserving meat has been invented by Dr. Roberto Sangiovanni, of Na ples. It is intended for climates in which there is long continued sun shine and little moisture in the air— our own southwest, for instance. The process is as follows: Remove all the bones and fat; cut into rectangular pieces as large as possible. With a big needle pass coarse string through one end of each piece and knot the string so that the pieces hang from it. Dip for an instant into 95 per cent al cohol and hang in" the open air until a dark, dry crust has formed all over the pieces, which will require three or four hours, according to the heat of the sun. Powder pure gum arabic in a porcelain or glass motar, mix two parts of powdered gum with one part of a solution of the purest tan nic acid in ether and four parts of water. Paint each piece of meat with this emulsion, using a large, fiat brush, on the following day re touching wherever there is an ex posed spot, however small, in order that every piece may be perfectly covered. Waste No Time Spraying Paris Green on Insects Do not waste your time spraying paris green on insects that suckt the juices from plants and foilage, such as lice, green, black and white aphis cr fly, meally bug, red spider and scale, by thrusting their proboscis into the leaf or stem, for they are not affected by stomach poisons, they must be destroyed by contact insecticides. Those in powder form kill by closing the breathing pores in the insect’s skin, or in fluid form from being absorbed through these pores, the American Forestry Maga zine points out. The best contact in sectides in powder form are helle lore, slug shot and tobacco dust. The best in fluid form are aphine, black leaf 40, fish (whale) oil soap, nicotine (tobacco extract), kerosene, miscible oil and lemon oil. Insects that eat plants, foliage, vegetables, fruits, flowers, etc., whether bugs, beetles, worms, cater pillars or slugs, are more quickly and effectually destroyed with a pois onous stomachic insecticide such as e rsenate of lead, paris green or helle bore. These, if applied acording to directions, are so diluted as to be harmless to vegetation and to animal life. Less poisonous stomachic and contact insecticides are kerosene emulsion, slug shot, etc. Real Slacker PARIS, France. —Jules Reant, a farm laborer listed as a deserter since the end of August, 1914, was arrested at Lille. It developed that he had been secreted for five years in a farm granary near the village of Auchel in the department of Pas de Calais. Neighbors kept Reant supplied with food and also kept his hiding place secret during the war, even the Ger mans, who passed through, not dis covering him. It was learned Reant left his self-imposed confinement in July last after five years of soli tude.

THURSDAY, JUNE 10, 1020. ars of prophyry to the terrace on the roof. , . . , To many of use this scene is fa miliar, to the many of us who have spent nights beside the bedside of our sick or dead, and with the early dawn have felt the “shiver that thrills through the earth ere she rouses from her night sleep,” Arta ban reached the roof just then. “The cool wind that heralds the daybreak was drawing downward from the loftv, snow-tracid ravines of Mount Oreiites. Birds, half awakened, crept and chirped among the rustling leaves and the smell of ripened grapes came in brief wafts from the arbors. Far over the eastern plain a mist stretched like a lake. But where the distant peak of Zaros serrated the western horizon, the sky was clear. Jupiter and Saturn rolled together like drops of lambent flame about to blend in onqi “As Artaban watched them, behold, an azure spark was born out of the darkness beneath, rounding itself with purple splendors to a crimson sphere, and spiring upward through rays of saffron and orange into a point of white radiance. “Tiny and infinitely remote, yet perfect in every part, it pulsated in the enormous vault as if the three jewels in the Magian’s breast had mingled and been transformed into a living heart of light.” Artaban covered his brow with his bands, his head was bowed. “It is the sign,” he said, "The King is coming, and I will go to meet him.” It is better to follow the shadow of good than to be content with the worst. This is the idea that I want you to stow awa-- in your heart and ponder over when there come times in your life when you are not sure about your pathway. And remember that you canont count on your friends We must be ready to travel alone if we would see the Light. Dr. Heniy Van Dyke has writtsi much that is uplifting, but nothing more so than the story of this man who left his home and did the best thta he could to help those needing him. I don’t know how it is with you. we have had rain until te farmers are almost desperate. Don’t let the weather get the best of you. “You’re beaten to earth. Well, well, What’s that? Come up with a smiling face It’s nothing against you to fall down flat But to lie there, that’s the disgrace.” Ard remember that we are told to “cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain thee.” Tholuck says: “Christians are not men who do not care, but men who cast their care on the Lord. Chris tians are not inen who see no thorns upon the track of life, but they are men who know from their own ex perience w’here Christ’s grace is granted all thorns at last swell and -burst open into roses.” Hang in the open air, taking them indoors and covering them whenever there is any moisture in the air and hanging them out again every dear day until they are perfectly dry and give out sound like lump® of wood when slammed upon a table. When certain that the meat is per fectly dry scrape or cut the layer of gum from the surface, leaving no trace of it. The object of this coat ing has been to keep all germs from the meat and at the same time to permit the evaporation of all mois ture contained in it. If the process has been carried out with care the meat will not putrefy; it will retain all its qualities, every cell and fiber being perfect. When wanted for use, all that is necessary Is to Im merse it in water for several hours, depending dn the size of the pieces. Dr. Sangiovanni prepares from this dried meat a powder which can be eaten raw or mixed with milk, flour, wine, water or any other food. The dried meat is chopped fine, then put through a small mill and sifted sev eral times through sieves until it is an impalpable pink powder, all the fibers and connective tissue being removed. It therefore, a perfect extract of mwr, containing every nu tritive particle without the addition of any foreign substance. And he recommends its use in the form of biscuits made by mixing equal parts of powdered beef and wheat flour with eggs, sugar, butter and milk in quantities at the judg ment of the baker.
