Arriving at a Verdict.

Kushequa, Pa, July l0.-(Special)-In
this section of Pennsylvania there is q
growing belief that for such Kidney Dis
eases as Rheumatism and Lame Back
there is only one sure cure and that Is
.Dodd's Kidney Pills. This belief grows
from such cases as that of Mrs. NJ. l..
Dawson Of this place. She tells the story
herself as follows:-
II have suffered from Rheumatism for
thirty years and find that Dodd's Kidney
Pills have done me more good than any
medicine L. have ever taken. .-I~was also
bothered with Lame Back and can only
say 'fa III Yh Sacs K dsn a
Considering that Mrs. Dawson only
took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
the result would be considered wonderful
if it were not that others are reporting
similar results daily. Kushequa is fast
arriving at verdict that "Dodd's Kid
ney Pills are the one sure cure for Rheu'
matism."

The larva eats voraci0usly and
grows with great rapidity, attaining
full maturity in. from ten days to two
weeks after Matching. 1t molts four
times; hence there are five distinct
stages, the first molt taking place Gin
warm weather) in about two days
from the hour Of Matching, the second
stage lasting two or three days; the
third and fourth, one or two days each,
and the fifth, four or five days. The
duration of the chrysalis stage is from
seven days to a fortnight during the
summer time, but the last chrysalides
formed in the more northern states
remain undeveloped during the win
ter until the following spring.
The life cycle occupies periods vary
ing between % days and five weeks.
Even in New England this species is
credited with being triple broodel,
but in the District of Columbia AID
vicinity there must be one or more
additional generations, and there is a
possibility of at least six in the ex-
IRENE south. The first generation de-
velops on wild plants.
In the treatment of this species it
should be kept in mind that other
worms" and other cabbage pests are
more often present than not.
Arsenicals-The best remedy is one
of the arsenicals; and paris green
and arsenate Of lead are preferred to
others in common use. If the former
is used it may be applied either dry
or wet, preferably, however, as spray,
at the rate of about one pound of the
poison to $50 gallons of water. 1t
should be applied when the plants are
first set out, SO as to insure the poi
son reaching the young larvae before
they have burrowed far into the
heads. Other applications should fol-
low as required. These can be made
with absolute safety until the heads
are about half formed, and, for that
matter, even later, as the poison dis
appears from plants almost complete
" within three or four weeks after
application.
Bran Mash.-A mixture of bran with
paris green, one of the standard rem
edies for cutworms as we'll as grass
hoppers, is, according to the testimony
of some who have used it, successful
against cabbage worms" and should
be tried against the present species.
Any arsenical can be employed in the
preparation of this mixture. 1t is best
to mix the brand with water and
sugar before adding the poison. The
proportions are two or three ounces
of sugar or other sweetening, and
about one pound of bran, to a gallon
of water; SO as to make, when stirred,
a mixture that will easily run through
the fingers. In it's application it is
merely sprinkled, either wet or dry,
over the affected plants.
Hellebore will kill this WORM but
is not as satisfactory remedy as the
arsenicals.-F. H. Chittenden, of Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture.

MARKETING POTATO CROPS.
How tho Railroads Mado It Possible
~ for the Growers to Get Fair
H. Prices. '

In line Win the CLASSIC case Oh Tue
oyster shippers, cited by President
Hadley, of Yale University, in his book
on Railroad Transportation, is the case
Of the Aroostook potato growers
brought by President Tuttle, of the
Boston and Maine Railroad before the
Senate Committee on Interstate Com.
merce. Nothing could better show how
railroad works for the interest OF
the localities which it serves. =
A main dependence of the farmers
of the Aroostook region is the potato
crop, aggregating annually eight tc
ten million bushels which find mar.
ket largely in Boston and the adjacent
thickly settled regions of New Eng.
land. The competition Of cheap water
transportation from Maine to all points
along the New England coast keeps
railroad freight rates on these potatoes
always at very low level. ..r..
Potatoes are also considerable out
put of the truck farms Of Michigan,
their normal market being obtained In
and through Detroit and Chicago ano
other communities of that region.
Not many years ago favoring sun
and rains brought tremendous yield
of potatoes from the Michigan fields.
At normal rates and prices there would
have been q glut of the customary
markets and the potatoes would have
rotted on the farms. To help the pc.
tato growers, the railroads from
Michigan made unprecedentedly low
rates on potatoes to every reachable
market, even carrying them in large
quantities to a. place so remote as Bos-
ton. The Aroostook growers had to
reduce the price on their potatoes, and
even then could not dispose of them
unless the Boston and Maine railroad
reduced it's already low rate, which it
did. BY means Of these low rates,
making possible low prices, the pota-
to crops of both Michigan and Maine
were finally marketed. Everybody eats
potatoes, and that year everybody had
all the potatoes he wanted.
While the Michigan railroads made
rates that would have been ruinous to
the railroads, had they been applied to
Iu0 ulOVcuucAt VI OH pOtdIOCo at OLA sAAAA0SS
to all places, they helped their patrons to
find marketsthen. The Boston and Maine
Railroad suffered decrease in its rev.
enue from potatoes, but it enabled the
Aroostook farmers to market their crop
and thereby to obtain money which
they spent for the varied supplies
which the railroads brought to them.
If the making Of rates were subject to
Governmental adjustment, such rad
ical and prompt action could never
have been taken, because it is we'll es-
tablished that If a rate be once re-
duced by a railroad company, it can
not be restored through the red tape
of Governmental procedure. If the
Michigan railroads and the Boston and
Maine Railroad had been subjected to
Governmental limitation they would
have felt Obliged to keep up their rates,
as do the railroads of France and Eng
land and Germany under Governmental
limitation, and let the potatoes rot

WIN Trees Lean North.

In this climate young trees are IL
able to lean away from the il. sun,
toward the north or east. The best
way to keep them so they lean toward
the sun, but to keep them in balance
bv winter pruning. It will be observed
that the limbs on the north side tend to
grow faster than those on the sunny
side. In some varieties the southern
limbs turn toward the trunk of the
tree. away from the intense sunlight,
while the northern limbs spread well
out away from the body of the tree.
Shortening the limbs on the north
side euualizes the weight of the head
of the tree so it will not tip to the
north.-Prof. J. C.. Written.

A DESERTED VILLAGE
NEW CHICAGO, IND, RELIC OF
NATURAL GAS DAYS.
Empty Houses Tell Story Of Indus.
trial Decay-onoe Site of Larg-
eat Pumping Station in
the State.

Kokomo, Ind.-In the little town OF
New Chicago, six miles east OF this
city, Howard county has, in the literal
sense Of the term, deserted village.
In 1t are more than score Of hand
some residences, with spacious, we'll
kept lawns and ample drives. Not one
is occupied. They stand there cheer
less and empty, a group Of monuments
to the departed days Of natural gas.
The town was founded Is years ago.
when the Indiana Natural Gas and Oil
company penetrated the Howard coun-
ty gas field with the pipe line leading
to Chicago. A pumping station, the
largest ever built in Indiana, was erect
ed, and nearly all of the houses were
put up to furnish homes for the men
employed in the pumping plant and
their families. For unmarried en-
ployes a clubhouse, with quarters for
80 men, with hardwood floors, with ap-
pointments, In fact, of a first-class club
property, was erected. This establish
ment has been abandoned, too.
The gas company ceased few months
ago to operate the pumping station.
There was no longer employment for
people in the town, and one by one they
began to move away. This was kept
up until now the place is uninhabited.
Thinking that the pumping station
was to be nucleus around which town
Of considerable size would be built up,
farmers owning land in the vicinity
had their corn lands and wheat fields
plated into town lots and made ready
to sell them, at high prices. Not one Of
them ever sold q lot
Some farmers were slow to abandon
the hope that new city was to spring
up. but finally they brought before the
board Of county commissioners at the
present term petitions for the vacating
OF every street and alley in the fields
that were plated. With the coming of
spring the town lots will be given back
to the plowshare and the dream Of New
Chicago will be at an end.
