CUT WORMS AT WORK.

Throughout some sections of Colo
RADIO quite little injury is being
done to growing vegetation by cut
worms. Prof. c. P. Gillette of the
Agricultural college has prepared a
description of the pest and has sug-
gested means of dealing with it, as
follows:
The insect doing the injury is a
true cut worm of which there are
many distinct species. This W orm is
of the western prairies and is common
in all the northeastern portion of Col
orado, at least. every year. but seldom
occurs in sufficient numbers to attract
much attention as a worm. In the
course of three or four weeks these
worms change to their adult condition
as grayish or light brown moths or
'millers," and these will annoy you
by getting into the houses and getting
into the lamp chimneys and upon the
window panes. Probably many can
remember having these moths about
the lights in the evenings last June.
They fly into the fields at night and
deposit tho eggs about the plants that
cut worms. The worms become only
partly grown in the fall and live over
winter in the ground. When warm
weather in the spring comes on, they
awaken from their long winter sleep
and feed greedily upon almost any
ta b.
at hand, and if there is not plenty
close by, they go in search of it. If
ground having any vegetation on it
is plowed in the spring and planted
or sowed, the worms being in the
ground may appear in all parts of the
field TO destroy the crop. If the
ground was plowed before the first of
September, and not planted or sowed
before spring, there will be no worms
to speak of in that field except as they
migrate in from surrounding fields.
AS this is a native insect in the habit
of feeding upon native plants, it is
likely to be especially abundant along
the borders of those fields that are
next to the native grass land. The
armies of those worms can
be checked by spraying the vegetation
just in advance of them with Paris
green or London purple in water in
the proportion of a pound to 100 gal
Ions. When there is little moisture
ON the crop in the early morning, the
poison may be busted on the leaves
from a cheese cloth sack. 1t should
be mixed with common flour in the
proportion of one pound of poison to
twenty pounds of flour. Heavy rollers
drawn over the field late in the even
ing when most of the worms are out
and feeding will kill many. A ditch
across their path in which water can
be constantly running will prevent
their advance.

A Venice Industry.

Venice owes the accumulation of
great wealth from new industry to
one of her natives named Joquin. Ii
was in the year 1866 that he observed
that the scales of a fish called the
bleakfish possessed the property of sv-
ing milky hue to water. After exper-
imenting with it he discovered that
when beads were dipped into it and
then dried they assumed the appear
ance of pearls. This covering, however,
was easily worn away, and successive
experiments led to the manufacture of
hollow glass beads, all blown separate
ly, then polished in revolving cylinders
and finally coated inside with the
pearly liquid, the latter being protected
with wax. This branch of industry is
carried on in Venice to this day.

Riffs in the Clouds.

You fail because you do not have
confidence in your own ability.
There is success in the venture for
someone, but you are afraid you
may fail, and therefore do not dare
to undertake what you could carry
out if you were sure of your ability.
There is an abundance of every
thing you need, waiting for you to
step forward and take it. There is
no need 10 worry, you can have
your share by quietly asserting
your will-power and never giving in
TO seeming trouble. The success
full business men of the world are
living examples of what will-power
can do, will do, and does do. 1t is
by keeping everlastingly at thing
that it is made to succeed, and the
success will be in proportion to the
energy put into the undertaking.
There is an old saying that
where there's will, there's
way" sand it is true, for the will
soon finds the way; the will is cap
able of overcoming very great OBJ
stacles. If you will only realize
that you have as much intelligence
as other persons of your acquain
lance who have succeeded where
you have failed, you will see that it
was purely wil1-power, or in other
words push" that made the differ
ence.
But then she has a gift for the
sort of thing" you say. Bah! you
can do every bit as we'll when you
have asserted your will-power. Say
Il can, and will" and then go
about in the best way that you
know; before long other ways will
open up for you, and success will
be an assured thing.
1t will take time, however, for
you are apt to forget, or to fly all
to pieces" over little difficulties at
first, but do not give up. George
William Curtis once said, AN en-
CINE of one-cat power, running all
the time, is more effective than of
forty horsepower standing idle!"
How true that is.
If you were in the surf on the
seashore you would struggle against
your weakness, try again and again
to overcome the force of the waves,
and reach the land; but in your
everyday life you put forth no
effort, you drift along, until you
fail entirely. What did it matter,
anyway, it did not amount to
much" you say; but do not forget
that the small things are the step
ping-stones to greater ones, and
that the earth is made of atoms.
No one can live your life for you,
no one can win your success for
you, but yourself; and it is only by
constant, cheerful effort that you
can win. There will be no such
thing as failure for you when you
have learned to control your will
power, and to apply it to whatever
you desire to do. Be cheerful and
kind always, for success is very
sure 10 follow in the wake of these
two mighty magnets.
