That woman in Washington who al
leges that her husband hypnotized her
so thoroughly that during her entire
married life she had bent completely to
his will in all respects presents a re-
markable exception TO the usual course
of conjugal life in the United States.
In our glorious country woman is so
highly regarded that the masculine
member of the conjugal partnership is
expected to do all that may be consid-
cred necessary in the way of will-bend-
ing, and as general thing he makes no
kick in the performance of his duty In
this respect. That Washington husband
cannot be a true blue American.

With both the emperor OF China and
the king Of Italy considering the adj
visibility Of abdicating their thrones
II Is evident that what Artemus Ward
called .'the king business" is not an al
together satisfactory industry at the
present time. Royalty has worries and
tribulations that ordinary humanity
il exempt from. The theory that the
king can do no wrong is only a theory.
As matter Of fact the monarch Is held
responsible not only for his own short
roniugs. but also for the sins Of others.

DEDICATION.
Next Sunday to Be Memorable
Day in the History of
Norris.
One of the Finest EdificeS in the
Northwest Will Be
Dedicated.

This week completes the new NJ. E..
church, and every preparation is being
made for the dedicatory services next
Sunday. The building as already
stated. is not equalled outside of the
cities, and is the best monument of
Methodism that could be erected.
The church is magnificent white
brick structure with granite facing.
It is divided into an auditorium and
Sunday school department. The in
side is all hardwood finish, and the
pews are also hardwood. The cell
ings and walls are artistically fres-
coed, while sixty-fve electric lights
cast beautiful reflection in every
nook and corner. The seating capa-
city of the auditorium is 225, The
total cost Of the building, all furn-
ished and completed, is somewhere
in the neighborhood Of $4,000, and
the most pleasant part OF it all IS
that it will be entirely paid for.
The dedicatory services will take
place next Sunday at 1910 a. m. with
very impressive ceremonies, and will
be conducted by Rev. DR.. B. l. Ives,
of Auburn, n. Y, one of the most
noted ministers in the United States.
Besides Mr.. Ives, there will be other
ministers of considerable note; Rev,E,
.Robertson,a former minister Of this
church, but now presiding elder of
the Winona district of the Mime
sofa conference; Presiding Elder r.
r. Atchison of this district; Rev.
Samuel Ellery of Owatona, formerly
pastor of this church, while there are
still others who are expected, but
have not heard from them definitely.
A special choir has been selected
for the occasion, which will sing both
morning and evening, and as there
will be no services in the Congrega-
tional church. the seating capacity OF
the new edifce will be tested to its
utmost on this memorable day, when
the noblest work of man will be dedi-
Gated to the law.
Last Sunday Rev. Willett preached
his farewell sermon to the old church
while many of the members cherish
sweet memories of the old building
they feel happy to occupy one of the
handsomest buildings in the North
west and are anxiousIy awaiting thu
time to come
Morris can now boast of as fine al
educational and religious bnilding
as any city of its size in the West
and its citizens have just cause 70
feeling proud Of the town, and al
should make its point to attend mex
Sunday and participate in the cere
monies.

ANNUAL REPORT.
OF the Norris w. 6. T. u. for the
Year 1897.

The last meeting of the Morris W.
G. T. U. for 1897 was held on Mon
day afternoon, Dec. 9Th. AS this
meeting is the only temperance union
in the town, perhaps brief report
would be interesting to those inter-
ested in temperance work.
The society has membership of
u ladies and honorary members,
eight new members were received
during the year and two have re-
moved. AS union we desire to pro-
mulgate the doctrine of total absti-
hence and through prevention and
redemption, through the home and
stately schools and by law annihilate
the liquor traffic. We believe that the
manufacture and sale of intoxicants
as beverage ought to be prohibited
by law. Our members may differ in
, their views as to the ways and means
whereby this may be accomplished,
but not in principal
There are some p departments or
lines of work in the state work, the
local unions may take up those best
suited to their localities. The union
here has TAX up ten of these lines
of work, among them the flower mis-
sion, which aims to send flowers or
potted plants to funerals, to the sick
and inyalids, cards tied with white
ribbon, and bearing scripture texts
accompany them, Gu superintend-
snt has sent out 35 boquets to the
sick,7 designs to funerals and in July
box of flowers was sent to the hos
pital in Minneapolis. Delicacies are
sent to the sick and if the persons
are in need endeavors are made to
relieve them. Often out side help
has been given us for the work by
those interested in our union.
The superintendent of our literature
has distributed temperance literature
among the Scandinavian and Ger
man people. Boxes at the depots
are supplied with readin matter.
During the summer an ice water
barrel was maintained by the society
for the public at an expense of $3.50,
of this amount 5000 was contributed
by generous citizens.
The superintendent of narcotics has
placed copies of the cigarette law in
the schools, sent them to all the
unions in the district, and placed
some in public buildings.
We have held one medal contest
during the year and had two lectures
Mrs. Scoville, now state president, and
and Miss Alderman, a round the
world missionary, both of whom gave
us able and interesting lectures.
Occasionally gospel temperance
meeting has been held, but not as
often as we hope to hold them the
coming year. The receipts of the
year were $60.18. During the winter
we meet the first Monday Of each
month, and are always glad to vel
come visitors at all meetings.

The Gypsy Moth.

The following statement has been is
sued by Prof. G. X. Fernald, entOmolo-
gist to the Hatch experiment station at
the Massachusetts, Agricultural College:
cit is my unpleasant duty to call at
tentiOn to the presence of an injurious
insect pest, which Is committing great
injury to the fruit trees In Cambridge
and Somerville, and which has been
mistaken for the gypsy moth by the citi-
zens in that locality. / have carefully
examined the caterpillars Of this insect,
sent to me by my assistants on the gypsy
moth work, and find them TO be COM
mon European species, known In Eng
land by the name of the brOwntail moth
(euproctls chrysorrhoea), which is
widely distributed In the old world, and
which is very Injurious to fruit and for
eign trees. / have before me copy OF
the law enacted in Belgium, many years
ago, requiring the land owners to clear
this insect from the trees and giving
the best methods of accomplishing this
work. Similar laws were enacted In
France and other European countries
at a much earlier date The insect Ia
now in the caterpillar state and It's de-
structlve capabilities are abundantly
shown by the defoliated pear trees along
Somerville avenue and adjacent streets.
The adult moth Is white, with dense
reddish brown tuft Of hair near the end
OF the body, and the wings expand about
one inch and @ half. These moths fly
chiefly in the night and lay their eggs
In July in clusters OF about 200 or 800
on the under side Of the leaves, In q
The advocate., 1897-10-06

short time the eggs hatch and the young
caterpillars spin compact webs at the
tips Of the branches. Within these webs
the caterplllars spend the winter, emerg-
ing early IN May, when they commence
to feed voraciously on the foliage. The
caterpillars are quite hairy, dark brown,
with q row Of white spots along each
side. / do not know how this insect
came to this country, but as there are
nurseries and greenhouses in the imme-
date vicinity Of the infested area, where
foreign plants have been handled to
considerable extent, 1t is quite possible
that the pest may have been imported
on some Of this stock. l would advise
the owners of infested trees to spray
them with Paris green in water in pro-
portion Of one pound to $50 gallons, or,
what will be more effective, with arse
nate o. lead, in the proportion Of five
pounds TO 100. The Massachusetts gypsy
moth committee held a meeting to con-
slider the best way Of dealing with the
new enemy, but not much can be done
now because all the funds Of the COM
mittee were appropriated exclusively for
fighting the gypsy moth. Possibly an
effort will be made to get special ap-
preparation in order to attack the in
Vaders at the earliest possible moment,
but on account Of the lateness Of the
session, If for no other reason, the task
of putting bill through is acknowl
edged to he difficult"

Some Points in Bulb Oulture.

If we would meet the early snowdrOp
and the crocus, the gaudy tulip, and the
princely hyacinth, with their compan-
ions, in the garden in the spring, we
must become fall planters. Because
autumn does not to many seem the right
time for making, no doubt many
lawns and flower gardens are without
these most charming flowers that other
wise would have them. There is no
good excuse for this, 1t Is just as easy to
make up and plant flower beds in Sep
tember or October as it is in the spring.
In fact, 1t should be easier to plant in the
autumn, because usually there Is less
crowding of work than in the spring.
The great value of the hardy bulbs in
extending the season of bloom In the
garden makes 1t ineXcusable not to have
them in abundance. Without this class
the lawn and flower beds are bare of
bloom for several months In the spring,
before they are occupied with the regu-
lar summer flowers. This state Of things
is oftener found In the handsome lawns
Of our towns and cities than in the
country. 1t means one crop of bloom in
the season, when with autumn planting
the same beds could have succeeding
crops, from early until late. Nor must
we overlook the fact that of all our
garden flowers, the sweet, beautiful
Dutch bulbs, coming in the lovely
springtime when nature draws us to the
garden, excel all others in delightful
qualities. And it Is not in the garden
alone that the advantages Of this class
of bulbs most strongly appear Inas-
much as the season of bloom follows
very quickly after warmth sufficient to
start the growth sets in, they are match
less among flowers suited to home cul-
ture in winter; whoever can succeed in
growing any kind Of house plants may
without hesitation undertake the culture
of hardy bulbs in the window, for the
culture Of no other is easier. With the
hardy bulbs at our command, there is
no excuse for not having an abundance
of the most delightful flowers in our
homes, during the winter and spring

The Stalk Fields.
Farmer

A correspondent of the Journal Of Ag-
rlculture suggests that if the stock is to
be turned into the stalk fields after the
corn is taken out, it will pay to push the
work Of cribbing the corn, so that what
feed there Is can be secured in good
season. While the dried leaves and
shucks cured on the stalk left standing
in the fields do not contain nearly as
much nutriment as good corn fodder cut
at the right stage, and properly cured,
yet when 1t can be secured in good sea-
son, there Is too much food to allow it
to be wasted. But the longer it is al
lowed to stand the less valuable it be-
comes, while the greater the risk Of dam
age to the land by trampling. When
left, as is often done, until bad weather
sets in, the land is injured by the tramp
ling Of the stock, nearly or quite as
much as the value of the feed, in addi-
ton to the loss sustained in the value
of the feed.
There is no possible advantage in
leaving the corn out in the field any
longer than it is possible to avoid, after
1t is sufficiently dried out to stow away,
and the work can be done faster, at a
less cost, and much more comfortable in
the fall in good season than later on.
This, with the more that can be made
out of the fields and the saving of dam
age to the land, makes 1t an item to
push the work of getting out the corn
so as to get the benefit of the pasturage
or feed at it's best stage, and at the same
time avoid damaging the land by tramp
ling.
