THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER

they are growing up they destroy
a whole plant-lice settlement. Then
they roll UP as cocoons, and hang
suspended, head downward, in nearly
any available nook. They come out
of the shell full-grown ladybirds, and
keep on their ca~rnivorous career.
Cautiously enough, the ladybird has
few enemies. Its only means of de-
fence is a pungent liquid, which is
not poisonous, is not really of a bad
odor and probably frightens none of
it's haphazard foes. When it is
frightened it draws it's feet up close
under it's body and sticks tightly to
the under side of a leaf. Presently,
If nothing alarming happens, it
spreads its small wings and flies
away, all the time watching sharply
out of its brilliant black eyes,. The
ladybird really has two pairs of
wings, although it seldom gets credit
for them. The front pair fold over
and form part of the hard shell that
incases it's body. The hind wings are
used for short flights.
"Nearly every insect which destroys
the crops is the prey of the ladybird.
Many of these are the ladybird's first
cousins, such as blister beetles, squash
beetles, bugs, cabbage beetles, weevils,
bark-boring beetles, -four beetles and
bean beetles, all of which belong to
coleoptera order"

OUR YOUNG PEOPLE
Our Queer Language.

When the English tongue we speak
Why is 'break" not rhymed with
"freakF
Will you tell me why it g true
w say "sew," but likewise "few;"
And the maker of a verse
Cannot cap his "horse with "worse 2"
"Beard" sounds not the same as
"heard;"
"Cord" is different from "word;"
"Cow" is cow, but Glow" is low;
"Shoe" is never rhymed with foe"
Think of chose" and "dose" and
'1ose;"
And of "goose"-and yet of Choose"
Think of Comb, and "'tomb" and
'bomb;"
"Do1I" and "roI," and 'home' and
"some."
And since 'pay" is rhymed with
"say,"
Why not "paid" with "said," I pray2
We have "blood" and and "food" and
"good;"
Mould" is not pronounced like
Wherefore "done," but "gone" and
'1one"
Is there any reason known?
And, in short, it seems to me
Sounds and letters disagree.

1t is easy to understand, then,
why japanese little ones are the hap.
piest and best behaved children in
the world; for a child is, of course, a
reflection of his environment.
Although japanese children are
laughter loving, fond of play, and
free and independent in action, yet
they assume responsibilities just as
soon as they emerge from babyhood.
It is a common sight in Japan to see
fastened on the back of a very little
boy or girl a tiny baby brother or sis
ter that is, perhaps, but a few days
old. In summer time the baby is
held by means of a broad sash (obi)
that ties him to his nurse. When
out of doors in winter one thickly
padded garment snugly secures them
both from the cold, making them ap-
pear like a two-headed being, as
Genjiro Veto puts it, in a recent
Letter from Toxic.
On the whole, this seems a sensi-
bic way to carry a baby, for the at
tendant's arms and hands are left
free. One often sees these little
nurses flying kites, snowballing or
playing battledore and shuttlecock,
and, at the same time, singing lula
bies to the wee specimens of humani-
ty on their backs. AS japanese babies
are noted for seldom crying, they
must be perfectly satisfied to be thus
jounced about the greater part of
their baby lives, for children in ia
pan are very hardy and stay out of
doors most of the day, no matter
Now cold it may be, and think moth
ing of having the wee brother OF
sister to care for constantly.-Good
Housekeeping.

"PIGGIE's

This is a neat booklet that should
be read by all hog raisers as well as
stockmen in general.
Knowing of the enormous loss of
swine from cholera, the Zenner Dis
infectant Company, 116 Bates
Street, Detroit, Michigan, have Sc
cured very valuable information on
this subject from several of the best
known specialists of bacterial di-
seases, as well as most successful
swine breeders in the country. It
contains a list of diseases swine are
likely to contract, and gives treat
ment for each one, telling how to
distinguish diseases by the symp-
toms, and what to do 30 relieve the
trouble.
1t is neatly printed, compact, con-
venient in size, and written in Ian
guage that the farmer will easily
comprehend. Every owner of swine
should have one of these books, and
there is no reason why one should
not be kept for ready reference, for
the publishers offer to send one alb
solutely free to the readers of this
publication who ask for one. 1t is
worth dollars to every one, who has
sick and ailing hogs, no matter what
the trouble may be.
The preparation, Zenoleum, has
been found to give most satisfactory
results as a d~isinfectant against
hog-cholera and killing nearly all
kinds of external parasites on farm
stock, as well as for many internal
diseases. 1t is a remedy for mango,
eczema, rash and other skin diseases
of cattle, horses and sheep, as well
as swine. It is very reasonable in
price and is used and recommended
by veterinarians generally. Write
for one of these books mentioning
this paper, and it will be sent free
and post paid.

Ladybug's Mission.

Who could have guessed that the
British Government would ever wish
to- send to South Africa twenty thou
sand of those seemingly useless little
ladybugs or ladybirds, whom we have
all told a dozen times to
Fly away home,
Your house is on fire, your children
will burn.
But this is actually the fact, and
the ladybugs will soon be on their
way across the sea from our own
country to Cape Colony, just because
they are better able than any other
creature to destroy certain insects
which are spelling the crops there.
Not many years ago large ladybugs
were brought to California from
Australia for this same reason, and
they earned $4,000 for the State by
killing the queer beetles that had
begun to injure the grapes.
The ladybug, as we see, is a won
derfully helpful insect, even though
so tiny. She is a kind of beetle, and
is found In many parts of the world.
Her little, round body, only an eighth
of an inch in diameter, is sometimes
red, sometimes yellow, always bright
colored, and often covered with tiny
black spots. In France the children
call her the "insect of the good God"
because of her work for the farmers
in Kidding their crops of dangerous
bugs.
"Your ladybird is always hungry"
the London Express tells us, feeding
upon the eggs of other insects, and
upon the insects themselves if they
are small enough to be swallowed by
a specimen so diminutive as the lady
bird itself. The ladybird lays a string
of tiny yellow eggs. She is cunning
enough always to lay these amid a
colony of plant lice.
GAS soon as the larvae hatch out,
looking like miniature a~lligators, they
begin to eat, and being c~arnivorous
they fall upon the tiny insects around
them. In the five or six weeks that

The Children of Japan.
"The little children in Japan
Are fearfully polite,"

Travellers have many times assured
US. Many of us probably hold a
mental picture of stately juveniles
making obeisances to one another
while saying in elegant japanese:
"After your august self, honorable
friend!"
In reality there is nothing at all of
the prig about a Japanese child. His
good breeding is Unborn and so much
a part of himself that all his little
courtesies are instructive, and, there
fore, entirely unaffected. This ex-
quisite politeness is distinctly trace
able, first, to the national trait of
self-abnegation. Every japanese man,
woman and child considers that his
greatest privilege is ito die for my
emperor" if by so doing even a mini
mum of benefit is conferred upon the
sovereign and hence upon the
try. Then, it is every ones duty
to be most considerate of his parents.
This implies, of course, u~ncomplain-
ing obedience to father and mother;
and obedience is not looked upon as
a virtue, but as something common
decency demands. Another require
ment is this: no matter what ones
troubles or physical pains, no EVIL
dence of them must be. lei In ones
action, speech, or even in facial ex-
preston, for we have no right to bur-
den others with our troubles. 1t is
exceedingly "bad form" And, final
ly, one must be good for the sake
of being good, not for the sake of re-
ward.
If, as Buddha, said, "Hatred eases
not by hatred at any time; hatred
ceases by love-" then, argue japanese
parents, love brings forth love and
reciprocal service; and they treat
their children accordingly.

posite Wiju. The sharp shooters landed on the island of Samalind and surprised a patrol of fifty Japanese scouts just as the latter were approaching the east side of the island in three boats. The Rus sians allowed the Japanese to land and then fired on them. Nearly every Jap- anese was shot, bayonetted or drowned and their boats sunk. The Russians sus- tained no losses.
 Non-commissioned Officers Louchkine and Souhaschonov distinguished them selves in the fight On the following day the Japanese lowered their dag at Wiiu and their outposts, which lately have. been, fell back.
 On the night of April l. four Russians crossed the Yalu to Yenampo (Yongham- pho) and made towards a Russian village, where they found squadron Of Japa~ nese cavalry. They remained twelve hours, when they were betrayed by Ko- reans and found themselves obliged to swim the river, their boat having struck on sand bar. One soldier lost his life. The Japanese pursued the Russians in a boat but were in turn attacked by Rus sian boat which had come to the rescue of the swimmers. The Japanese were all killed and their boat sunk.

 Some Complaints.

According to figures obtainable at late hour last night Congressman John H. Bankhead has been nominated for re- election to congress from the Sixth dis triet over Captain R. P, Hobson by ma- jority of 652 votes.
 This has been the most remarkable and one of the most sensational political con- tests ever waged in Alabama and has possibly attracted more general interest than any other political race in the state. The newspaper offices and telegraph of fees throughout the state have been be- seiged by anxious inquirers for results from the contest In the Sixth district ever since the polls closed Monday night.
 Captain Hobsons supporters are bitter ly disappointed over the result and some of them are claiming that fraud was committed in Fayette. Walker and pos sibly other counties in the district The Bankhead forces are also complaining of irregularities.
 Banlxhead has carried the following counties with the majorities given: Tus- caioosa, 59l; Marion, 300; Sumter 1sl; Greene ITO; Lamar. 100. Total 1899.
 Hobson has carried the following coun- ties: Walker. 60; Hale, S4l; Pickens. 300 Fayette, 60. Total TAI.

 Although the ballots are yet to be counted it appears that the above county ie aIa democratic executive committee will meet tomorrow at noon at the court house for the purpose of canvassing the returns of the recent election Chairman B. A. Thompson will preside at the meeting and 1t will probably require five or six hours to complete the work. Until this is done 1t will be impossible to figure in- telligently on the results of a few closely contested places.
 One of the interesting rumors yesterday was that In reference to the successor of Judge Samuel E. Greene when he is de- clared the nominee for the office of pro. bate judge. It is suggested that the friends of Judge J. P, Stiles, nay pe- tition governor Jelks ro appoint him as one of the judges of the crmi- nal court to succeed Judge Samuel k. Greene. The two judges of the criminal court will in November become judges of the circuit or consoli. dated court of Jefferson county.
 A great deal of money was posted or the recent election. It is rumored that 6 certain court official won in all $s.O00 or the primary election. Of this amount he is said to have had a wager of $3,500 from a certain bank official and won.
