q Unique Curiosity

James Armitage, of this place, has
unique curiosity which has puzzled
as we'll as intereste the many who
have seen it. 1t consists of deer's
horn securely imbedded in the trunk
of a black oak. The tree from which
this section was sawed was found
about three miles south of ApOllonia,
the companion horn being found at
the foot of the tree. Mr.. Armitage
has no explanation as to how the
horn camein this position, but would
he glad if some ingenious mind would
solve the puzzle. Flora Star.

NO "GREEN BUG"
IN WISCONSIN
Professors from Experiment Station
Of State University Conducting
Persona! investigation

From all sections of Wisconsin.
north and south, come reports from
the farmers OF the rayages OF the
''grecn bug which is running the
wheat cropin Kansas and Oklahoma.
Numerous specimens of infected oats
have been sent to the state expert
ment station and in no case has the
''green bug" been discovered.
Prof. II. A. Moore of the college of
agriculture, University of Wisconsin,
was in Ladysmith Tuesday, having
been investigating crop conditions in
the vicinity of Flambeau. Discuss
ing the situation, Prof. Moore says:
Farmers have become alarmed be-
cause oat fields have taken on red
dish brown color, and plants are
making little grOwtl. While the
stand is good, the plants have not
reached the height usual for this sea-
son. Looking for the cause farmers
have found green louse or aphis on
the plants. In some districts the
louse was so numerous that the poor
condition of the crop was attributed
to it, probably because Of the excite
ment in the south regarding the
green bug in the wheat fields. EX-
tended Investigations made in the
past week by the university expert
ment station show the aphis more
numerous than usual, but in no case
is it found in sufficient numbers to
cause the damage attributed to it.
The aphis would simply suck the
juice from the plant causing it to
wither and the leaves to seem pune
tured by q needle. No doubt the
aphis has done some slight damage
to infested plants, but large num-
ber of plants show the disease where
no aphides are found.
"Practically all damage done may
be attributed to oat rust, found on
all the plants. Reddish brow II
blotches appear on the leaves Of the
plant, somewhat elongated, which
later turn dark brown. In nearly all
cases the leaves turn brown at the
end and die back to the stool. This
| is because the rust takes up the
nOurishment which would naturally
go to the tissues, and they starve
and turn brown. While most farm
ers are acquainted with rust, they
have overlooked it us the cause OF
the present trouble because it .ap-
peared so much earlier than usual.
''The bugs which have been noticed
in this state are as large as an Ordi-
nary bed-bug, while the 'green-bug'
is only about half the size of alOuse. "
While in Ladysmith Prof. Moore
looked up his old friend and class
mate w. It. Rooney, whom he had
not seen for several years.

BELL FROM THE SEA.
Saved from Wreck-Now Announces
News of Overdue Ships

Probably very few people are aware
that an old ships bell which for many
years has lain under the sea is suspend
ed in the underwriting room at Lloyd's
and is used to announce" the arrival or
other news received in respect of over
due ships.
This is the bell of the frlgate Lutine
wrecked long ago off the Dutch coast
After being under the water for years
the bell was salvaged and now. strangely
enough. is employed to inform under
writers that something has been heard of
one of those ships which by their pro-
tracted passage are causing uneasiness.
Not every ship that is ON the over
due market is announced in this manner.
1t is only when an underwater has ex-
pressed to the committee his desire for
immediate information in respect to this
or that overdue vessel that the note of
the old black bell rings through the
rooms.
At the present time there are eleven
ships down on the list for announcement
by the Lutine bell. but some of these
are SO hopelessly overdue that it is prac-
tically certain nothing further will be
heard of them. The big steel bark AL
sternixe. for instance. heads the list. She
was formerly the British ship Lord Tenn
plemore and was built at Belfast in
1892 This ship has not been heard of
since last November, when she sailed
from Callao for Australia.-The Scots

POLAR BEAR STEAK.
Not So Bad if Cooked with Plainly of
Strong Onions.

According to Max Fleischman, who
has not only killed polar bears, but has
eaten the same. the meat was fairly pail
atable, although it was necessary to cut
it into very thin strips and hammer it
thoroughly before broiling in order to get
the blubbery taste out of it.
I'm addition to this precaution," says
Mr.. Fleischman, in the National Geo
graphic Magazine, Il would advise that
a plentiful admixture of onions be used
in broiling fresh bear meat, and if the
onions are strong enough and one has a
penchant for onions one won't really mind
bear steak 1t is the opinion of the
writer and also of the ship surgeon, who
was the faster of all new food, that
young seal is a great deal more palatable
than bear meat"
