Growers be ON the Watch
For the Melon Plant Louise.

From the fact that the melon grow.
ers OF the State have suffered i'm.
mensely In the past from attacks OF
the melon plant louise. as in many
instances the melon crop has been
reduced one-half 10 two-thirds in
quantity besides being greatly in.-
paired In quality, we particularly ad-
wise them 10 be on the watch this
spring and summer for the first ap.
pearance OF the insects in their
patches. The eggs that were de-
posted late last fall on weeds and
other plants, that win afford nour.
ishmcnt in the early spring, will
hatch with the return Of the warn,
days, the young developing into
adult winged viviperous females.
BY means OF these winged forms the
species is transferred from the weed
patches and other situations to the
melon fields, where their offspring,
like their winged mother, continue
TO multiply rapidly by bringing forth
their young alive. In the mean
time the winged insect has left for
other parts Of the patch TO start
more colonies.
Since these melon aphids feed
upon a large variety of plants, in
Guiding many of our common weeds
in addition TO cucubitous vines,
clean cultivation will do much TO
lesseE their chances OF rapid devel.
opment in the early spring.
As soon as the young vines get
four to six leaves, they should be
carefully and frequently examined
for the lice and at the first appear
ance of the winged females, they
should be fumigated with carbon
bisulphide. This is accomplish
ed by covering the young vines
with tight boxes or other covers,
twelve or eighteen inches In diane
ter, the same in length, aud intro
ducing under each box a vessel con-
tanning one or more teaspoonsful of
carbon bi-sulphide. One teaspoon
full should be allowed for every Gu
bic foot Of space under the cover
and this will easily kill all the plant
lice in three-quarters Of an hour,
though it will do no harm 10 leave
the cover in place for an hour. A
cheap tin cup. n clean shell, a sau
Ger or other open dish will answer
10 hold the carbon bi-sulphide. This
chemical is a cOloress volatile LIQUID
with disagreeable odor. It's va-
pOr.is heavy and about as infiammable
as gasoline, spark from a cigar or
pipe being sufficient to ignite il.
The vapor is also very poisonous TO
animal life, but no one need fear in
haling small quantities Of il in the
open air.
Kerosene emulsion at the rate of
15 per cent. may be applied to the
vines in the form of spray against
the melon aphis, but il must be re-
membered that the solution must hit
all the plant lice in order to kill
them. Any further information in
regard TO treatment for this or any
other insect pest or plant disease
will be gladly given by the State

Gently made brigadier- general, il
one OF the few remaining old -time
scientific soldiers. He has seen SER
vice In the cavalry since 1855, when
ne enlisted rs bugler In the old
Second Cavalry.
Gen. Hayes is large In stature, but
with all his huge size and military
bearing he Is quiet, soft. voiced
gentleman, easy In his manners and
as much plain citizen as though no
bad never lived o day 10 the fieid
with regular soldiers. Yet he has
seen more phases Of life than mos,
other officers now In the army. He
Is one OF the few left who served In
the old army Of the days before the
Civil War.
Ii was In the days when most OF
the vast country lying west of the
Mississippi River was a trackless
wilderness that Jack" Hayes. rs
he Is known 10 his brother officers,
enlisted. His first fight with the
Indians took place In 1857. near the
Brazos River, and the next year,
1858, he went on Van Doru's expe.
dition against the Comanches, and
was In the famous fight OF Wichita
village, which proved TO be one OF
the greatest battles ever fought ke-
tween the American Indians and the
United States soldiers.
In 1889 he was In the battle OF
Jungle Hollow. which was also
fought under Gen. Van Dorm, and
in 1889 he was in another Indian
fight, this time under command OF
Fitzhugh Lee. This was his last
Indian battle before the Great Civil
War.
1t was during this period of SER
vice that Col. Hayes. then bugler,
Il years OIL, saved the life OF Fitz-
hugh Lee. This, he says, is the
story Of the incident:
Lieut.. Lee and Hayes had been 10
see Sam Houston take the oath OF Of.
fee as Governor of Texas at Austin.
On their return il was learned that
Indians had made a raid, killing a
few settlers and running off some
cattle. Lee took twelve men aud
Hayes and started after them. He
struck their trail the next night and
followed il more than fifty hours, at
the end OF which they came up with
the Indians on plain near tim
bered ridge. The command charged
the Indians, and in a short time had
the band on a run.
The Indians scattered and two of
them made for the timber on the
right. These two. one the chief,
were followed by Lee, Hayes and q
trooper. Lee and Hayes happened
to see an Indian dash for q patch OF
rocky ground. The trooper was left
in charge OF the horses, and Lee
and Hayes started after the Indian
on foot. They had not gone far,
when Lee called:
Look out, Jack; he is not far
from here. There is bis blanket. :"
AS he said this, Lee picked up the
blanket, which was bright red, and
hung it on his gun. A moment la
ter, Hayes heard loud talking, and
turning around, saw Lee and the
Indian in a hand-to-hand battle.
The Indian had shot Lee through
the arm with an arrow and then had
jumped upon him from behind, be-
fore Lee could use his pistol. In
the struggle, the pistol fell TO the
ground. Hayes went to Lees res.
cue, but was afraid to shoot lest he
should hit the wrong man. Lee at
last got hold of his pistol and shot
the Indian through the jaw. This
did not disable, him, however, and
when il was about all up with Lee,
Hayes fired and killed the Indian

OBITUARY.

Departed this life, April 26, 1903.
KATE HIGGS, wife of Herbert l..
Higgs, in the 47th year Of her age.
May she rest in peace!
Weep not dear brother for your
darling wife for she is now resting
with the heavenly angels above. /
know it is hard to part with our
dear one, but we should not grieve
after her, for our loss is her gain.
God calls to his throne those whom
he loves best. She was true Chris
tian and member Of the Methodist
Episcopal Church. But God is just
and He saw that it was best TO take
her pure soul from this world. Her
remains were laid in the churchyard
at Bethel. She was devoted wife,
and was loved by all who knew her.
Oh, brother, why should you weep :?
Your dear wife is not dead, she has
but gone to rest at Jesus feet. Oh,
dear sister, il was hard TO give thee
up, but we ell have to part. We
hope to meet thee again in Heaven
where is JOY and rest forever more.
BY her sister-in- law, ALMA.

After a lingering illness, borne
with great fortitude, at his late res
idence, Piney Point, Md, on Tues
day. April 28, 1903, JAMES A. IN
GRAM, formerly of Washington, ID.
c., passed into the great unknown
world.
Mr.. Ingram was man of high at
tainments, intellectual culture and
of progressive views. 1t will take
a long while for the gap left behind
him to close up among his many
friends in lowers Mary's. Strong
and vigorous in manner and express
sion, he was not always understood
at the moment when expressing his
views, which later proved by the
turn of events that his mind was Of
ten of q prophetic nature. After re-
firing from active service of the u.
S. Government many years ago, he
was attracted to Piney Point. where
he invested in considerable proper
ty and no man was ever more devot-
ed TO the home of his adoption than
he. On the Both Of April, his body,
followed by his children and a large
concOurse OF friends, was placed in
the historic old churchyard at Pop
lar Hill. w. b.

the cold appears. There is no danger
in giving it to children for it contains
no harmful substance. 1t is pleasant
to take-both adults and children like
it. Buy it and you will get the best

CHRISTMAS IN THE TROPICS

In tropical countries some interest
ing effects are produced because
Christmas may be celebrated in the
open air In the Philippines the day
is usually warm. The hedges and the
banana trees and the orange groves
are in bloom, and the people take a
midday siesta to rest from the heat.
In the afternoon there may be a base
ball game, and at night, fireworks.
In Cuba, the evergreen cactus, the
brilliant colors of flowers growing out
of doors, the white sunlight and the
indigo blue of the waters make a
scene in sharp contrast with the
SHOWS of northern climates. The
houses have colors ranging from sky
blue TO pink, with white iron balloon
les, latticed windows and tiled roofs
You will find fountains at play indoors
and outdoors. And in the country are
gardens of ropical foliage. Here the
essential features of the Christmas
celebration are the same as in other
Catholic countries.
Everywhere in Spanish America the
old Southern European Christmas Gus
toms are tenacious. In Peru bands of
children go about on Christmas eve
from house to house wherever there
is a nacimiento. singing carols. There
is in a museum in Spain a nacimiento
that came from Peru that is said to
be two hundred years old. 1t is in a
box. When the lid is lifted it disclos-
es representation of heaven with an
gels playing upon musical instruments
The interior is the usual representation
of the manger, but the front of the
box. when it is open, represents the
Garden of Eden.
But in those parts of South Amer
lea where Germans have settled they
have introduced the Christmas tree
and other German Christmas customs.
