THE CUCUMBER Lous4D
Pest That NIps the Blossoms and How
to Fight II.

Almost every one who has had any
experience in growing cucumbers is
familiar with this little insect; for
wherever cucumbers are grown his
presence Is made conspicuous by the
blossoms falling from the vines.
Whenever we see the blossoms fading,
we can rest assured that this pernici-
Gus bug Is getting in his work.
have found from long years OF ex-
perience that the insects are more
numerous during dry weather than at
any other time. The cucumber louise
Is aided in his work of destruction by
a small species of ant that seems to
harbor in clusters in the small crew
ices of the bloom. Almost every form
of solution and composition has been
tried for the purpose of exterminating
this destructive insect, which has
wrought so much harm to all vine
plants. Lime has been used by
number Of the commercial growers.
but without any apparent success.
Spraying has been practiced to a great
extent, but many report an utter fail
ure.
There is nothing which have tried
which has proved so successful In de-
stroying insects as wood ashes, says
the correspondent of Country Gentle
man. One application of wood ashes
slightly mois.ened with kerosene has
done moro for me in the way Of ex-
terminating bugs and insects than all
other compounds combined. save all
the ashes through the winter, storing
them in some dry place. This Is very
essential. for should they once become
water soaked, they will lose much Of
their value as an exterminator. When
am ready to apply the ashes to the
plants, l dampen them slightly with
kerosene, just sufficient to moisten. I
then shake small handful around the
stem of each plant and sprinkle on
the leaves. One must exercise care
not to use large quantity Of kero-
sene, for when applied 1t would be in
furious to the blossoms and leaves.

HARVESTING ONIONS.
Care Must Be Taken to Do II Just at
the Right Time.

AS onions approach maturity, the
ti.ne OF harvesting them should be
carefully watched. When they are
mature the stems will show 1t by dry
ing up and looping over, and the
orlons should be harvested at this
ti1le to avoid second growth start
ing in. 1t has been found by those
who grow them under irrigation that
the crop could be very easily spoiled.
This waS done by there being check
in the growth of the onions just be-
fore maturity, and the irrigator think
ing he would continue the develop
mont by an extra watering. The ex-
tr1 watering resulted in starting what
is known as a second growth, a new
shoot being cent up from the onions
and many of the onions dividing into
two parts. This Injuries them for sell
ing in the markets, and also Injuries
their keeping qualities, says the Farm
erg' Review. If the onions stop grow
Ing for any cause, either because they
have not been supplied with adequate
water or because the natural rain fall
is not abundant, 1t is better to harvest
them at once, even though they are
somewhat immature. The best keep
Ing varieties are frequently the smell
ones, and among the varieties the
shall onions keep better than the
large ones. This is due to the fact
that the loss in weight causes free
evaporation and sprouting. Therefore
they should be harvested as soon as
possible after they have obtained their
FIRST growth and put in a cool place,
that is, a place not dry enough and
warm enough to cause evaporation of
moisture to start growth.

advantage and with profit, but the
greatest demand is for apples.
A small evaporation can be used to
advantage and profit on every farm,
even If it is only to dry the supply Of
fruits and vegetables for farsly use.
Evarorators with capacity OF six
to ten bushels per day will take care
Of the No. surplus fruit on most
farms. The expense of operating is
not large and there is usually a good
return. Apples will usually dry out
from six to eight pounds to the BUSH

maturity, quality Of the fruit and the
caro- used in pairing.
The evaporation shown in the cut Is
owned by George T. Powell, we'll
known New York fruit grower, says
the Farm and Home. 1t has capac-
i,y of 100 bushels per day and cost
complete somewhat less than $1,000.
Ite averages $50 pounds evaporated
apples from 100 bushels of green
stock, and 200 pounds Of skins and
cores. There are two kilns. the ap.

FINEST BaEAkwATER IN WORLD.
English Harbor Formed by Mile Of
Walls COSTING $4,000, 900.


The harbor of Plymouth, England, Is
protected by what is claimed to be
the greatest breakwater IL the world.
The main part Is 1900 feet long, with
two arms at angles extending 1000
feet. thus making 1t nearly a mile on
its entire length. 1t stretches across
the entrance to the bay, two and
half miles from the city, and receives
the force of the gales that frequently
come up from the southwest.
In the center is fortress Of iron
and masonry, and at either extremity
a lighthouse So feet high.
Nearly four and half million tons
of stone were thrown into the sea as
foundation for this breakwater dur
ing the Al years that 1t was building
from 1912 to 1852, and It cost $4,000
900, but It made the harbor OF
Plymouth one OF the safest In Eng

Grave Robberles Common.
Although the danger from grave
robbing never became so acute In
Massachusetts as elsewhere, up to
within 25 years the crime was of COM
mon occurrence here. But in New
York a series Of startling exposures
revealed the fact that there was
well organized body Of men engaged
in the work OF supplying medical
schools with the necessary cadavers
for dissection. Until 1888, when the
so-called anatomy bill was passed in
that state, there was but this one way
In which bodies could be secured. The
prices paid for them were high, and
in consequence group of men about
Syracuse Medical college and the Buff
falo Medical college did thriving
business as 'resurrectionists." OF
them ALL no one was more famous
than DR.. Hervey w. Kendall, who at
last was mysteriously murdered.
In more ways than one DR.. Kendall
was remarkable man. His temper
ament was such that he seemed to de-
light in things that Mortified other
men. He was a student at the medi-
cal college, where he was known as a
man who was not brilliant student,
but as one who could do things better
than most men when he made up his
mind to do SO. To look at the man
was to see that he was out Of the
common. One who knew him well de-
scribed him as follows:
IF Hervey had lived in the days Of
pirates he would have been rival to
Capt. Kidd. In the first place, he
looked the part. Nine out of ten men
would turn to get look at him on
the street. Almost SIX feet tall he

Shading Summer Head Lettuce

When the plants begin to make
good growth, mulch the ground
among them with strawy manure.
Then place frame over the bed to
protect the plants from the hot sun.
Make the frame of lath nailed to solid
strips at each end, leaving an inch
space between laths. Drive stakes at
the corners of the bed and rest the
frame on them, having 1t Is to Is
inches above ground. This shades
them considerably and with the help
of the mulch good crop OF crisp SOL
i'd heads can be produced.

His skill with the revolver was

Family Of GhouIs.
At about this time the country was
startled by the weird story which fol-
lowed the arrest of the McNamee fam
lily. Some three miles from the city
there had lived for five years the ia
Their, two sons and daughter. But
little was known Of them, although the
neighbors frequently speculated on
their means of earning livelihood.
One night farmer named Goodrich
was returning to his home late from a
visit to distant relative, when he
met In tho dark road team. The
road was narrow, so that In passing
he was able to see the occupants OF
the other vehicle. He recognized
them as the old man McNamee and
his daughter. He was somewhat sur
prised to notice that the girl was
dressed In mans clothes, but still
more surprised to see that a muffied
figure sat between them. He stopped
and asked few commonplace ques-
tions, to which he received surly re-
plies. At this point McNamee's horse
started, apd as he did SO threw the
hat from the head Of the third figure.
Goodrich nearly fell frou, his wagon
as he recognized the set .'eatures OF
young Wilbur Hill, who had been
buried few days before.
Goodrich, pale from fright, hurried
home and reused the neighb,rs. They
opened the grave, which haG but late
ly been filled, and found it empty. A
search of the house of the McNamees
revealed spades, ropes and all the
other paraphernalia of grave robbing.
Further investigation Of the grave
yard showed that many other bodies

Emptied Numerous Graves.

Emptied Numerous Graves.
The poorhouse graveyard was their
favorite hunting ground, and at the
inquest over the body Of Kendall an
ofIicee testified that he did not believe
there were a dozen graves in the
cemetery containing bodies. But these
ghouls even visited neighboring viii
lagos and the aristocratic burying
ground at lakewood. So bold did they
become, and so powerless were the
police to check them, that many citi-
zens buried relatives and friends In
distant cities.
Kendall was suspected, but he
adopted a hundred ruses to throw the
sleuths Off his track. Time and time
again he was almost captured in the
act, but always made good his escape.
Cemeteries we're guarded and patrols
placed about tombs, but still the med
ical school was supplied, and Kendall
remained at large.
His end was as tragic and mysteri-
Gus as his life had been. On May 8,
1882, Thomas Powell, an attendant at
the county courthouse, looked from
one of the windows and saw through
the morning mist the body Of a man
lying in an adjacent field. There was
bullet hole between his eyes. but he
was still conscious. He gave his
name, but refused to divulge the name
of the man who had done the deed.
He died n few hours later. with his
lips still sealed.
Near him lay piece of carpet, two
shovels and satchel containing a
canthook, rope, dark lantern, a
bit and stalk, a screwdriver and a
burglars Jimmy. Whether he was
shot in a quarrel with a pal or by a
member of the vigilance committee
which had been organized against the
ghouls, no one knows. With his death,
and the passage of law giving the
schools a legal means Of securing ca
