500 REWARD, 500.

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure In
all it's stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system, thereby destroying the foundation Of
the disease and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that 1t fails to cure. Send for list of

Irritation for the Garden.

Frequently dry weather continues SO
long that it is impossible to preserve
sufficient moisture by tillage or any
sort of mulching. 1t then becomes ne
cessary to water the garden. Where
there is connection with city water
works the supply is ample and easily
reached. In other locations various
forms of cisterns and reservoirs are
employed. When 1t is possible the re-
servoir should be few feet above the
level, so that any part OF the garden
can be reached with a hose or a "

shaped trough. Inc proper appl1caClon
of water appears to be very simple, but
is in fact quite difficult.
1t is not unusual for an inexper-
fenced person to sprinkle the garden
every day or two and think he is re-
lieving the drought. The effect of such
treatment is likely to BE harmful, es-
pecially if the sprinkling is allowed to
leave a crust about the plants. In
watering, the earth should be thor
oughly wet, so that the moisture will
get to the lower and outer roots of the
plants. In order to check evaporation
after sprinkling, the surface should be
broken as soon as dry enough to work.
The watering should be repeated when
it is evident, upon careful watching,
that more moisture is necessary. 1t
must be remembered that the small, &C
tive roots, which take up moisture and
plant food, are most numerous at the
extremities of the large roots and at
a distance from the stem. The water
must be so given as to reach these
small roots.
The best time for watering is gener-
ally thought to be at evening, but Bel
lair says: "In the spring, in the middle
of the day, because the morning and
evening are too cool; in the summer,
at evening, because the days are so
hot that a great part of the water
given during the day would be eVap-
Grated Immediately; in autumn, in
the morning, because the nights are
cold"
Mr.. Saunders says: water at any
time when the plants need it, and
water thoroughly. When l am told
that watering in the sunshine at noon
will burn up my plants, l answer that
they will certainly burn up it l do
not water them"
Sugar beets should be making their
appearance in from seven to ten days
after planting if the soil is warm and
moist enough. The real struggle on
the part of the growers begins at this
juncture, for several kinds of emer-
gencies may arise at this tender age.
Occasionally a frost or hailstorm
will do considerable damage and the
patch may have to be replanted. In
replanting it is advisable not to reset
beets extensively. The terminating
period is the anxious time Sometimes
a beating rain will crust the surface
to such an extent that the beets can
not penetrate it. In such cases very
good results may be produced by u.s.
ing a light harrow to break up the
crust. At every stage of the crop the
beets must be kept clean and cult1-
walton begin at the earliest possible
moment. Sometimes they are culti-
waited soon after planting. These first
civilizations are accomplished with spe-
cial beet cultivators, which work sew
eral rows at time. They are ADJUST
able to the width of the rows and usu-
ally have for the first cultivation small,
loose sharp, duck-foot knives running
parallel with the surface designed to
cut off the grass and weeds just un-
der the surface.

THE FIELD
Some Enemies of the Sugar Beet.

and the native cutworm, are enemies
which have appeared from time to
time in our beet fields. They are all
more or less subject to the attacks OF
PARASITES and it is perhaps this fact
more than any other which saves the
country from a ScOurge which would
entirely wipe out the growing crops.
These larvae increase with startling
rapidity and since they live and thrive
IN a number of native weeds as well as
on beet plants =. would be great task
to fight them if they appeared in great
numbers every year. These three spe-
cies of worms winter in the ground
either as half-grown larvae or in the
chrysalis state and early fall plow-
ing of the land intended for beets is
the best preventive measure.
The cutworm is the first to make it's
appearance in spring and to cause
damage to the growing crop. Inc eggs
are laid in the fall and the larvae bur-
row in the ground, coming forth in
the spring as soon as there is any
thing green to eat. The worms may
be killed by scattering poisoned bran
mash as is done for grasshoppers.
Green alfalfa dipped in spraying mix
ture such as one pound OF paris green
to 100 gallons of water or five pounds
or arsenate of lead to 100 gallons may
be scattered where the worms are
thickest in early spring or before the
young beets become large enough to
furnish food. In using either OF these
remedies the DISTRIBUTION should be
made late in the day so the preparation
will be fresh for the worms to eat
during the night. The spring cut
worms attain their growth and enter
the ground to pupate about the last
of May or first of June, coming out as
matured moths about month later,
when they lay eggs for the summer
brood.
This later brood can be destroyed
to some extent by spraying the plants
with any of the arsehical mixtures, al
though greater strength is needed than
when spraying for pests on fruit trees.
This late brood can also be greatly
diminished by thorough cultivation OF
the field and hoeing in the rows TO
break up the tunnels formed by the
worms in the surface SOIL The birds,
especially quail, meadow larks, doves
and blackbirds, do great good in pick
ing up cutWOrms. When an alfalfa
field is irrigated the worms are forced
out o. their hiding places and the birds
feast upon them.
The moths of both the web-worm ana
the army-worm make their appearance
during the month of May and one may
Judge to some extent of the probable
size of a brood by observing how
numerous the moths may be. The
most effective remedies are those OF
prevention rather than cure. Fall and
winter blowing and discing are most
effective, although much can be done
at this season by clean culture, not al
lowing weeds to grow in the fields or
on adjacent lands where the moths
can deposit eggs which have time to
hatch into voracious worms before
the beets attain much size. When
these insects appear in great numbers
on the beets the only remedy is poi
soning and it is best applied by spray
ing. The dust spray has been tried
but with Indifferent success.

An attempt to reconsider the vote in
the house by which on Thursday tho
LOO amendments to the revised code
had been accepted, met ignominious de-
feat in the house today. .-.
W. I. Nolan of Hennepin led the fight,
declaring that he wanted to bring the
code and it's amendments where they
could be considered. He said that it
had been railroaded thru, and if
the code were passed, lay members as
we'll as the judiciary committeeman,
would come in for criticism by their
constituents. He wanted the whole sub
iect opened for extended consideration
and debate.
w. B. Anderson, chairman Of the Sju-
dietary committee, made determined
and successful objection. He insisted
that the consideration of the code sec
ton by section, with the amendments,
would be a physical impossibility, and
would simply result in the defeat of
the code for this session: The judiciary
committee had spent six weeks in To-
eating the mistakes and it would take
work in detail. He told the members
that If the Nolan plan prevailed there
would be no more legislation and mem
