the terrific destruction of chinch bugs which
it certainly caused in 1888-1889 in Illinois,
the ease with which it may be cultivated arti-
fcially in quantities, and the greater variety
ofinsects which it attacks, make 1t one or the
more important fungus parasites"
In 1883 Prof. f. H. Snow observed that
from some unknown cause there was an al
most complete disappearance of the hordes of
chinch bugsin KANSAS. Farmers reaped boun-
tiful crops where they had anticipated total
loss Insects do not die before their time,
except by causes which may be known.
The cause was all epidemic contagious
disease which operated upon these insects
with greater destructivenes than the black
plague upon the human race in the 18th cen
curry. In the warfare Of man against bis in
sect foes q valuable ally VIII be found in the
bacterial and fungoid diseases which may be
artihcially introduced.
Influenced by these views the Legislature
of the State of Kansas, in March, 1891 appro-
priated $500 to establish a station to con
duet experiments for the destruction of
chinch bugs by oontagiou or infection, and
tosfurnish the same to farmers free Of cost,
under the direction of +. H. Snow, the Cham
cellor Of the State University.
The results Of this experimental work have
now been published, and they certainly have
interest for all agrioultuIists.
Infected oninch bugs were sent to seventy
eight counties in the State Of Kansas and to
ten other States and two territories. Of the
400 experiments made by introducing dis
eased chinch bugs 1911 were reported as sue
cessful, 181 were reported as unsuccessful
and 148 were reported as doubtful. That is,
of all the experiments made III careful and
careless hands in 1891, 1865 per cent were
successful, IS per cent were unsuccessful,
and. 1915 per cent were doubtful.
It has been found that old and young in
sects are alike subject to infection, that dis
ease follows the Introduction Of Infected in
Sects into a field.
1t is not easy to imagine a more severe
test, q practical or more successful agricul-
tural experiment,

WHAT PART OF THE CANE SHALL BE
USED FOR PLANTING?
Louisiana Planter, Nay 18th

Louisiana Planter, May I4th)
Our readers are somewhat familiar with this
much discussed question. The planting Of
cane tops seems almost universal throughout
the tropical cane sugar world, but the imma-
ture character of such cane has been frequent
ly alleged as one Of the causes of the presum-
ed deterioration Of the sugar cane in the tro-
pics. Cane tops we're used for planting N
Louisiana, but the practice was abandonedbe-
fore the war, experience seeming to have shown
that for our latitude at least cane tops did not
serve as we'll as whole canes, they to be cut
only when crooked.
Careful studies made at the Sugar Expert
ment Station seem to show that the third
quarter of sugar canes, counting from the
bottom, possesses the greatest yigour in the di-
r~ection of growth, while having sufficient sub
stance to resist rapid decay or desiccation.
The use of this section of the canes for
planting is practically impossible on an in
C~ustrial scale, and as our canes will germi-
nate, and frequently do, at every eye, and all
the wayldown to the butt, we are not confronted
with that difficulty that c~onfronts the tropical
planter, the extreme maturity of the butt OF
the cane, and to such an extent that the eyes
or buds will not germinate.
While we have the option Of planting the
whole cane or any part of it, the tropical
planter has fallen back to the top. There
comes now a movement for a change, and we
reprint from The Barbados Planters Journal
an interesting series of letters on what they
call planting pieces of cane.

and so was the correct source from which the
species ought to be propagated. Subsequent
experiences has proved to me that my c%onjec-
ture was right.

Re-SubmlSsiOn.

their re.submission organization.
The scheme, as outlined, is to elect
enough members Of the Legislature,
pledged, to re-submit the prohibit
ory amendment. 1t is claimed that
the contest in many legislative dis
tricts will be very close, and the re-
submissionists, by voting in a body,
will be able to secure pledges from
the candidates to re-submit.
The assumption is that the candi-
dates have neither principle or char
acter, and that, in order to be elect
ed, they will be willing to give any
pledge to secure votes, and that,
therefore, the whisky men can die
tate the makeup Of the next legis-
lature.
We know nothing Of the strength
of the German re-submissionists, as
to numbers, but we do know that
the influence behind this movement
is the brewers and distillers outside
the state, and the men in the state
who are chosen to lead in the agita-
ton are to be the future saloon
keepers-and they are pushed for
ward--"backed"-by certain leaders
of the Republican party in Kansas,
for the purpose of soaring the weak
kneed Temperance" wing back into
the ranks.
The movement is in the interests
of few men, but the honest, in
dustrious German farmer or laborer
is to be used as cat's-paw.
Now let us glance at the situation.
A great revolution is in progress
in this state. 1t aims to better the
condition of working people, finan-
cially, morally and mentally or, in
other words, the aim of the Populists
is to erect homes for the working.
people, develope good morals and
cultivate the intellect.
The home is necessary to moral
and mental advancement. Also,
morals and minds are necessary to
the acquisition and maintenance of
good homes.
The saloon, or drinking, and
drunkenness are detriment "a clog
upon the wheels of progress, and
one of plutocracy's most powerful
allies. The saloon cannot be used
in delivering the great common
people from the clutches OF the
money power.
Any scheme to restore the saloon
in Kansas is a great step backward,
and is a positive hindrance to the
reforms contemplated by the Popu-
lists, and any man who espouses the
cause of the English brewers and
the great American whisky trust is
unworthy to sit in the Legislature of
the great state of Kansas, be he Re-

manhood or the interests of the
great army Of temperate boys who
have grown to manhood without
even a knowledge of the saloons
whitening blight.
Peoples party men may just as
we'll understand now as later that
the whisky power is one of the arms
of the great money devil-fsh, and
that the strength of this arm will be
exerted to it's utmost to destroy the
leaders of the Populist movement.
It's strength and influence will be
exerted to it's utmost to sow dissen-
ton and bring about disintegration.
Let the common people steer wide
of any alliance or compromise with
the men who have no higher aims
than the restoration of the saloon
and particularly let the farmers, who
bear the heavy burdens of taxation,
fight to the death this great enemy
of the human race. The man who
will vote to re-submit votes to bring
on one of the greatest political con-
tests ever seen in this state, and one
in which all other reforms will be
lost sight of, and in which all party
lines will be obliterated The peo-
pie of Kansas want the enforcement
of prohibition, but no re-submis-
sion.

Charities.

NnarlClcSs
Mr.. Rosenan,. superintendent of
the bureau of public charities for the
Worlds Fair, estimates that, in the
United States, the annual charitable
expenditures amount to 1925, 000,-
900, and that $5O0,0O0,O0O are in
vested in buildings. No account
is here taken of private charities, or
of jails and penitentiaries, which, if
added to the above, would amount
to fabulous sum. What does it
all mean? Are we becoming a ma
tion of paupers, infrm and criminals?
Is this the boosted land of the free
and Of home of the brave ?
There is neither freedom or BRAY
cry in charitable or penal institu-
tions-and what a home From
whence is insanity, pauperism and
crime Do they not all, in large
measure, spring from wrong condi
tions :? Is not society sadly at fault ?
And while it speaks well for the
heart, is the head not dull, in that it
does not seek for a preventive
Fight the wrong conditions.
Fight the intemperance, crime and
paupersm of the saloon by doing
away with the saloon. Fight the
unequal distribution of wealth by
seeing that men are employed at re-
numerative wages, and then see
that they are enabled to keep the
wages earned for the comfort of
themselves and families.
Fight immortality by guarding
the pure. Fight ignorance by edu-
cating-by teaching, Fight dis
ease by insisting on the observance
of the laws of health.
Charities are not, in any sense, a
preventive, much less cure.
What folly to travel road that
leads away from the objuct of travel.
A new and better civilization is
being inaugurated. The earth for
it's inhabitants and "the world for
Christ"

how does Mr.. Funston account for
