the Flight with Weeds.

In the battle with weeds the flrst
point is not to let weed seeds be car
ried onto bare land For this reason
there are fields where bare fallows are
never dvisable. as. for illustration, a
sdeld adjoining a road overrun with
weeds. The practice Of leaving land
{ thus bare is very often the cause Of
the same land being 81 subsequently,
oyerrun with weeds, which can only
be extirpated by years Of expensive
opera lions. The land owner frequent
~ magtnes that he has no interest in
t this wild lettuce, and other weeds
1nafs line the roadside adjoining his
premises. But he has very decided
s q: a interest; in then, for they
are n the great store house from which
/ mas '.1 farm Is seeded. While he is asleep,
the winds are whipping the heads

lying the seeds over his land to

Necessity for a. General Standard.

In the creation of a, bureau Of stand
ards, this country has taken a for
ward step. Up to the present we have
had to verify our instruments in Ger
many, but now that we have a bureau
of our own, we will be able to rely on
ourselves, What would still further
help things. would be the national
adoption Of a reasonable system OF
weights and measures, such as the
metric system. Until that is done, we
shall have great difficulty and confus-
ion in the standardization Of measures
Take, for instance, the bushel measure
that is used for wheat. It differs in
various states between points twenty
pounds apart. There is a variation il
other measures, and until one standard
is arranged for we shall always have
trouble. -Philadelphia Inquirer.

Expensive Poison for Potato Bugs,

NJ Expensive Poison for Potato Bugs.
Inc Maine Experiment Station, in
bulletin SO, takes up the question OF
poisons for potato beetles. 1t reports
SO adversely on bug DEATH a patent
lnsecticide, that anyone reading the
bulletin will certainly not buy the
powder named. In part it says:
Whatever value the material has is
dependent upon the strong dislike
which the bugs show for it, rather
than to any insecticidal qualities
which y. ',l it may have. The price as ad-
-vertised ranges from Is cents for q
single pound to 8 cents in the largest
package which the company puts out.
At The rate applied in these expert
ments it would cose $500 per acre for
the material for each application. Two
applications fortnight apart would
be needed to keep the potatoes free
from bugs. When applied to vines not
covering the ground an application al
the rate of 40 pounds per acre was
without effect 90 it would seem that
the second application must be as great
as the first. To partly protect would
cost for the Bug Death $500 per acre,
while to thoroughly protect against
bugs would cost $1,000 for materials.
The Perfection Shaker is a covered
tin dish with small holes in the bot
tom. Applied with this shaker a man
would be kept very busy and might de-

apply 100 pounds in one day. Tn.
Aroostook county there are in the
neighborhood of $4,000 acres of pota-
toes on which the bugs must be killed

TO SAVE MISS STONE
The Department Of State
Hard at Work,
The Measures to be Adopted Are Kept Secret.
Ransom, Then Vengeance Seems The
Program.
Program.
(By the Associated Press.l


Washington, Oct. 5.-AH the machinery
of the Department of State is now at
work to save from death or prolonged
captivity Miss Helen Stone, the mission
airy who was kidnapped in Turkey. The
President himself has become actively
interested in the matter
Today DR.. Samuel H. Capen, president
OF the American Board of Missions and
DR.. Judson Smith, the foreign secretary
of the board, arrived in Washington from
Boston and went directly to the State
Department. After an hours conference
with Acting Secretary Adee and Solici-
tor Henfield, they were escorted to the
White House. President Roosevelt gave
close attention to their statement.
Although the Department OF State has
already taken up the matter the Presi-
dent laid fresh injunctions upon Mr.
Adee to spare no effort to accomplish the
purpose he had in view Of releasing Miss
Stone
Owing to the peculiar conditions of this
case, none of the parties to today's con-
ference was at liberty to make state
ment for publication respecting the mea-
Sures to be adopted. 1t is gathered that
whatever may be done in the future in
punitive way Miss Stone must be ran
somed to begin with. Probably the ran
som money must come from the Mission
Board or from private contributions, for
the State Department has no funds which
may be used to pay the ransom.

Indicted For Embezzlement.
(By the Associated Press


Chicago, Oct. 5.--The grand jury today
voted two indictments against Robert
e. Burke, city oil inspector. The charge
is embezzlement of the funds of his office
and in one instance shortage of $14, 600
is alleged, and in the other SO, 900 is said
to be missing.
Several days ago representatives of the
Standard Oil Company told the grand
jury that they had paid as fees to Burke
in his capacity of city oil inspector GER
tain sums of money, which the grand
jury could not find in the inspectors ac-
counts with the city The matter was
taken up again today and after long in
vestigation it was found that there was
one case of a shortage of $4,000 be-
tween the amount paid by the Standard
Oil Company and that reported in the
receipts of the office by Burke. The
item of $4,000 was found in the same
manner.
Burke is chairman of the Democratic
County Central Committee.
Before the indictments were returned
he paid in to the office of the States at
torrey, $50, 900 to cover any shortages that
might be found in his accounts and late
this evening prominent politicians made
strong efforts to haye the jury return no
indictments, because of the payment of
money made by Burke. Their effort were
in vain, however, and the indictments
were found. Burke was not arrested to-
night and could not be found at his home.
There will be no difficulty about his ar
rest tomorrow or Monday, however as he
will surrender himself.

TO ISSUE A SUNDAY PAPER.
The Baltimore Sun Explains Its Reasons For
This New Departure.
(By the Associated Press.)


Baltimore, Nd, Oct. 5.-The Sun Will
hereafter issue Sunday edition which
marks change in its policy that has
excited the greatest possible local in
terest. In explaining it's reasons for
the new departure, the Sun says in It's
editorial columns today:
THE Sun will begin tomorrow, Oc-
tober 9Th, the issue Of Sunday edition.
In deciding upon a step which involved
a departure from it's long established
custom, it has carefully weighed all
the considerations bearing upon the
question and has been convinced not on
ly that a Sunday issue is demanded by
the great majority of it's readers, but
that such an issue will enlarge it's field
of usefulness While fully hOnoring
the sincerity of those who still oppose
the publication Of Sunday newspapers,
we believe they are mistaken in the
view which holds such publication
an evil per Sc, and which places in the
same condemnation, we'll conducted
and moral journal with those which are
wholly frivolous and sensational. An
unclean and demoralizing journal is an
evil on any day of the seven, and
newspaper which helps to improve the
world is blessing, whether published
on Sunday, Monday or any other day.
"As for the Sun, while it hopes never
to see Sunday lose it's sacred character
or its influence for moral and spiritual
good. it cannot accept as reasonable or
helpful the old Puritanical conception,
which made it day of gloom and
penance and which hedged it about not
with the sunshine of divinity, but with
severe restriction after mans devising.
1.-THE Sun purposes to give it's readers
on Sundays, as on other days, paper
they can read with moral and intellect
ual profit, and which will make the day
better day for them and make them
better able to use the day properly. It's
Sunday edition will not be of the OPP
pressive size, nor of the spectacular
character of SO many of the Sunday
editions. 1t will give the news and such
special features as maybe entertaining,
cheerful and pleasant. but its effort will
be not to exceed greatly in size it's daily
issues"
