this in 1879, but did not care to recon-
mend it until further experiments had
been made. These we have made the
present year, and caused to be made by a
number of our agents and correspondents.
The general experience is most favorable,
and we unhesitatingly recommend it for
all the different worms affecting the
leaves of our cabbage plant"
The American Garden says: Helle-
bore, lime, salt, and similar substances
have been used with varied success for
the destruction of cabbage worms. 1t is
now stated that bran and buck wheat -four
answer the.purpose better than any other
remedies that have been tried. The bran
is simply busted over the infested cab
bage as soon as the worms make their
appearance. If the worms are very thick,
about handful of bran is required to
each cabbage head, and sometimes it is
necessary to go over the plants second
time. A hundred weight of bran is suf-
6cient for an acre. 1t must be applied
when the worms are young. When they
are full-grown, or very strong, it does not
appear to affect them. The buckwheat
flour is sifted on them by means of sieve,
In the evening or in the morning
the dew is on the plants. If one appli-
cation does not destroy the worms, a sec
ond one should be made. 1t is probable
that wheat -four, fine Indian meal or any
other pulverulent farinaceous substance,
would have the same effect"

The Strawberry Bed.

Those who followed the instructions
given in July last, and made strawber-
ry-bed last month with pot layered
plants, are sure of a good crop next
spring, unless some accident prevents.
Good results may be expected from bed
made the present month (September),
but the sooner the work is done, the bet
ter. Those who have not pot-layered
the plants themselves, can procure them
of all the principal nurserymen, who now
propagate in this manner a supply of
plants of the leading varieties. OF course
they coast more than the ordinary plants,
but many are willing to go to the extra
expense, if they can only be sure of a
crop of fruit year sooner than they
could have 1t in any other manner. Those
who raise fruit for market, do not need
to be told that good Strawberries can
only be raised on good soil In private
gardens the plants are rarely properly
fertllized. Well decomposed manure is
best, and liberal coating, three inches
thick is none too much, should be spread
over the surface and spaded in. In the
absence of manure, a good dressing of
some OF the artificial fertilizers may be
used instead. The plants may be set in
rows two feet apart, and eighteen inches
distant in the rows. Some put them
only foot apart in the rows, but in rich
soil this does not give space enough. In
setting, the ball of earth is turned out of
the pot, and put in its place in the bed,
without disturbing its roots. At the
time OF planting, pinch off any runners
that may be forming upon the plants
During the growing season, keep the bed
clean by use of the hoe, and remove all
runners as they appear. The plants thus
treated will form fine large stools by the
time cool weather checks their growth.

1875 until last spring. For about Il
years be was editor of the Wood. Co,

cult Court, and for years a member of
the City School Board As an officer,
Mr.. Philleo was always urbane and OBJ
liging. but at the same time prompt,
energetic and honest in the discharge
of his duties. As a journalist he was
a writer Of much more than ordinary
force, and few could yield a more
caustic pen than he. AS father and
husband he was devoted and kind. AS
a friend he was warm hearted, and as
a citizen public spirited. He leaves a
wife and eight children to mourn his
loss.

The many friends of H. B. Philleo,
who was well known in this state,
were saddened by the unlocked for
news of his death at Grand Rapids
Friday. The funeral obsequies were
held at that place on Tuesday last,
under the directions of the Masonic
fraternity, of which order he was a
member. The ceremonies were beau
tiful and impressive, and the vast
crowd which was present testified o
the high esteem in which he was held
by those who knew him best In the
death of Mr.. Philleo the region in
which he lived loses an honest, upright
and noble christian gentleman, whose
place will not soon be filled.

1t is with feelings of deepest regret
that we read. of the demise of Mr..
H. B. Phllleo, of Grand Rapids, who
passed over the dark river that divides
this life from the Great Beyond, one
week ago yesterday. Mr.. Philleo was
born at Cedar7ille, n. Y, May 10th
1884, and was consequently in his 4Sth
year. In 1856 he moved to this state
settling in Grand Rapids, where he
has resided ever since. He was at
one time Post Master of Grand Rapids
Deputy Revenue Collector of this dis
trict, and for fourteen years editer OF
the Wood county REPORTER, which
paper he made one of the best in
Northern Wisconsin. He was able
and honorable, firm friend, an affec-
tionate husband and father, a good
neighbor and citizen. Mr.. Philleo' s
friends-and their name is legions-
will never forget his CHEEKY presence,
his hearty grasp of the hand. and his
ringing voice. He had few equals and
no superiors
He leaves wife and eight children
to mourn his demise. The disease
which caused his death was heart dis
ease with which he had been suffering
for some time. He passed through
the valley of the shadow of death
without a struggle, without a word.
His spirit rests IN peace. and his good
deeds will live after him.

We are under obligation to Railroad
Commissioner A. J. Turner for copy
of his annual report Of the condition
Of the railroads of this state. Tt is
exhaustive in its details and has this
to say about the examination of the
Green Bay railroad "Complying
with directions contained in joint reso-
buttons passed at the last session of
the legislature, an examination was
made into the condition of the Green
Bay and Minnesota Railroad In the
month of may last, and my report in
relation thereto was filed in the Exec
utive Department shortly after the in
inspection. The opinion was expressed
therein that the bridges on the road
were "safe for careful present use. =
AS there have been no accidents at the
bridges of that line, since filing my
report, that have come to my knoWl-
edge, and as all of them have proved
to be equal to all demands made upon
them, ander constant use, my conclu-
sions as to their safety seem to have
been fully warranted That the most
of the original structures should be
renewed without much delay, is fact
not to be ingnored, and duty not to
be neglected by the company"
The number of miles of new track
laid in the state during the year was
800 miles.
The total number of persons in the
employ OF the several corporations for
the year was 31,913 against 1912

The total number of. casualties in
the state was 399 No passenger was
killed in the state during the year and
but one employee from causes beyond
his control, and SO from their own
