AS TO INSECT PESTS,

Information Concerning

| GOAAOh DAlLH dERALO.-l
wish to say a few words regard
ing an advertisement which has
lately appeared in your paper.
This advertisement is written
by q man who calls himself
professor j. K. Street, an
eminent authority on entomol-
ogy." This self-styled profess
sor undertakes to induce the
unsuspecting farmer to send
him 90 cents for. a circular
which, he says, gives a simple
remedy, based on a habit Of
lepidoptera known only to him.
self, for the cotton caterpillar
and boil worm. The whole
article is absurd, and the merest
novice in entomology can see
that whoever wrote it possessed
hardly a smattering Of the
subject. Mr.. Street is an semi
nent authority on entomology"
in his own estimation only, and
Is absolutely unknown among
trained entomologists. 1 wish to
warn the public against putting
any faith in such advertise
ments, including as we'll patent
insecticides, for it will prove a
waste Of money and time, as
well as Of crops treated.
There is a corps of scientific
workers on this subject at
Washington supported by the
government, and by addressing
the agricultural department,
anyone can, free of cost, get
instructions as to the very best
remedies known, and particu-
lars of the latest Investigations.
In addition to this, each state
has its own station entomology
ist (or is supposed to have) in
connection with the state agri-
cultural college, who can answer
all questions regarding insects
and remedies. Texas has no
special entomologist yet, but it
is to be hoped it may soon have
one. It is part of my work
here to give information on
remedies for injurious insects
whenever required. Therefore
I shall be glad to put everyone
who desires in the way of secur-
ing the latest and most reliable
Information concerning any in
sect pest, and the remedies to
be used against it. In turn, [
shall be glad to have everyone
save specimens of such pests
and send them to me with details
as to injury done by them. All
such communications will be
answered promptly.

THE PAINS OF RHEUMATISM

IhE PAINS UF RHEU ID A IlSM
According to the best authorities,
originate in a morbid condition of
the blood. Tactic acid, caused by
the decomposition of the gelatinous
and albunlinous tissues, circulates
with the blood and attacks the
fibrous tissues, particularly 10 the
joints, and thus causes the local
manifestations of the disease. The
back and shoulders are the parts
usually affected BY rheumatism, and
the joints at the knees, ankles, hips
and wrists are also sometimes at
tackled. Thousands of people have
found in Hoods Sarsapsrilla posi-
tive and permanent cure for rheuma
tism. 1t has had remarkable suc-
cess in curing the most severe cases.
The secret of its success lies in the
fact that it attacks at once the
cause Of the disease by neutralizing
the Tactic acid and purifying the
blood,as we'll as strengthening every
function Of the body.
