OH! IT WAS PITIFUL
Tears were streaming down the cin¬
ema actress’ face. Reverses hod come
—she was In a pawnshop.
Slowly, silently, she drew from her
pocket a little package and laid It
down on the counter before the eyes
of the hardened pawnbroker.
“How much?” she asked, and wiped
her eyes with a tiny handkerchief.
She was pawning her six wedding
rings.— Tit Bits.
Slicker!
A young lady entered the stationery
store and asked for a pound tin of
floor wax.
“I’m sorry, miss,” said the clerk, “all
we carry is sealing wax.”
“Don’t he silly,” she snapped, “1
don’t want to wax a ceiling!”

their comments.”
Plant Lice Have
Odd Life Cycle
Little Insects Often Do Seri¬
ous Injury to Differ¬
ent Crops.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Aphids, or plant lice,- which often
do serious injury to the plants they
infest, have a curious life history,
which Dr. P. W. Mason of the bureau
of entomology describes in the 1028
Yearbook of the United States De¬
partment of Agriculture, issued re¬
cently.
“If we examine a branch of a tree
or other plant which is infested,” says
I lector Mason, “we will see the aphids,
in most species grouped together
in colonies, usually either on the un¬
der side of a leaf or along a twig.
They may he greenish, brownish, black,
or of other color, depending on the
species, or even covered with a mealy
nowder or long waxlike filaments.
Unusual Life History.
“These insects have a very unusual
life history; one differing from those
of almost all Other insects. The egg
is laid in the fall of the year, usually
on the bark of the twig. With the
coming of warm weather in the spring
tiiis egg hatches into what is
known as the stem mother. There
are no males until the next fail. The
stem mother gives birth to living
young, without the necessity of fer¬
tilization. These young are all fe¬
males, and, when mature, give birih
to other living young. This continues
throughout the summer, there being
numerous generations. In each gen¬
eration there are usually some which
are winged and others which are
wingless, each form being fully ma
ture. As the spring advances the
number of winged forms Increases,
until, in the case of many species,
they fly away to an entirely different
kind of plant. Plants so chosen are
known as summer hosts; on them new
colonies are started, and there may he
several generations on them before
the return migration to the winter
host. On the latter the true sexes
which have been produced mate and
the eggs are laid.
Forms of Aphids.
•Thus we see that there are several
forms of aphids, such as the stem
mother, the wingless viviparous fe¬
male, the winged viviparous female,
the male, and the egg-laying female.
These may vary considerably from
each other in appearance ami have
often been described as distinct
species.’’
Mixed Fertilizers Paid
in Wisconsin Corn Test
One hundred and twenty-five pounds
of 4-10-6 fertilizer dropped in the hill
at corn planting gave an increase of
18 bushels and gave a quality of com
that would be considered by the Wis¬
consin experiment station on a field
near Madison. The field had recently
had a crop of clover and was consid¬
ered to be average corn land for that
section of Wisconsin.
Trnf. E. Truogg, of the University
of Wisconsin, says there is a real need
for the determination of the right time
and method of application of fertil¬
izers. In further studies of the way
to distribute fertilizers, the manufac¬
turers of farm machines and fertil¬
izer companies and representatives of
the Mid-West experiment stations are
co-operating on a plun to study the
proper methods of application and dis¬
tribution of fertilizers. The project
has a far-reaching importance and is
being watched with a great deal of In¬
terest by farmers and agronomists all
over the country. Professor Truogg
is chairman of the joint committee.
Agricultural Notes
Limestone is worth as high as SW
per ton when applied to soils in many
sections.
• • •
Pasturing sweet clover in the fall
cuts down the storage of the plant
I food in the roots.
* • *
Wool should never be tied with
binder or sisal twine or wire. Use
i four-ply paper twine
♦ * •
Hay making has not been given the
attention in the past which the im-
1 portance of the crop deserves.
* * »
A fence post rots nearest the sur¬
face of the ground because the growth
of the fungi causing rottihg requires
heat, light, moisture, and food.
• * »
i Farms on which weeds are kept un
! der control have less plant disease
j than have other farms where unculti¬
vated areas grow up into a luxuriant
mass of weeds.
A single female fly will lay from 150
to 600 eggs which hatch in less than
24 hours, and In very warm weather
a generation of flies may be produced
in two weeks or even less.
* • •
Not only is the hay crop one of the
most valuable from the money stand¬
point but present day feeding methods
have also made it one of the most
necessary to the live stock producer.
* • *
The Hessian fly is widespread over
the wheat belt this summer. Every
farmer should know that the pest may
come back in sufficient numbers to do
great damage to the fall sown wheat.
Plow under all infested stubble, being
sure all tops are covered.
