The Story of a Word.

A comparison of old editions Of

the text of q sentence in the tenth

attaches to the word which has gone.

tace, art thou but this instant deliv'

origin of the word morse seems sore

Two learned correspondents of Notes

CORN ROOT APHIs.
Treatment of Seed Corn That Protects
the Younq Plants.

in view Of the Importance of practi-
cal measures for controlling the corn
root aphis DR.. s. A. Forbes, Illinois
state entomologist, prefaced his adj
dress at the Quincy meeting of the
state farmers institute by a brief
synopsis Of the experimental work of
his office on this insect hast year, and
described treatment of seed corn
which he. had found surprisingly effect
I've as protection Of the young corn
plant against this insect. His expert
ments showed an increased yield Of -
per cent in number of ears borne by
plots Of corn grown from seed treated
In the manner described, as compared
with adjacent plots planted with un-
treated seed. AS both stalks and ears
were visibly much larger and better in
the experimental plots than in the
check, the actual difference in yield
must have appropriated so per cent
but conditions for which the Office was
. not responsible prevented q final COM
parison Of the total product of these
plots
The Remedy.
The substance found most effective
for the treatment of seed corn was
mixture of oil of lemon and wood al.
cohol. To one gallon Of wood alcohol
add a pint Of oil Of lemon and sprinkle
and thoroughly stir three fluid ounces
that is to say, six tablespoonfuls-o
this mixture into each gallon Of corn
shortly before planting, making sure
that the fluid Is equally distributed and
that each kernel of corn has its proper
share. A thorough stirring after the
application Of the mixture Is all that Is
necessary.
Tho Cornfeld Ant.
The odor of this compound, which
will last for weeks in the ground. is
extremely offensive to the corntield
ants. and these insects will not enter
corn hills as long as 1t continues. AS
the root lice cannot get access to the
corn or maintain themselves there ex-
cept by the aid of the ants, the hills
remain virtually free from both ill.,
sects for at least six weeks.
The wood alcohol should not cost
above 81 a gallon or the oil Of lemon
more than 50 pint. The above
amount of the mixture will be sufli-
t1fnt to treat the seed for forty-five
acres, making cost for materials of
less than 10 cents per acre. Care
should be taken to buy these sub
stances from thoroughly reliable drug
gists. the oil Of lemon especially being
subject to adulteration. If the mix
ture is not entirely clear when shaken
up, the materials are impure.
An Experimental Strip.
Every farmer was earnestly advised
by Dr. Forbes to plant at least an ex-
pertinent strip fifteen or twenty rows
wide through his cornfleld and to com.

Of the central part of this strip. with
those Of the rows beside it, states Or
ange Judd Farmer. This will be espe-
cially desirable If corn is grown on
ground in that crop last year, and more
so If the field was heavily infested
with ants. Even corn planted after
some other crop may be proftably
treated in this way, since it IS liable
to become infested by winged root lice
early in the season and may be badly

Even as every man or woman who Is
possessed of surplus money-they are not
few at the present time, as any stock
fakir can tell you blithely-is confronted
with the problem of how to make 1t

with the equally great problem of how
to keep 1t in reasonable safety. And
this is no small problem, yet one by no
means impossible to accurately solve by
the small investor.
No matter how far one delves into the
world of finance, 1t will be found that
there are only two commonplace points to
remember. They are security and In

lower the other, and 1t Is accordingly the

Lingerie Blouses for Midsummer.

used In combination on the handsome lin
gerie bouses, as are also valenciennes
and baby Irish lace, and sometimes all
three will appear In one blouse, the Irish
lace taking the form Of little medallions
or motifs set In with hand stitching or
finer lace.
Hand embroidery on fine white etamine
is much used for French blouses and the
bouses from Paris are also often made
of white, embroidered In many different
shades-the palest blues, pinks, yellows
lavenders, ETC. There are as we'll French
blouses of sheer white batlste or null.
inset with designs of tinted null which
are hand embroidered In white and out
lined with narrow lace.
Soines rather odd-looking blouses from
Paris are made of striped linen, percale,
batiste, etc. The stripes are Of the hair
line variety or tri1e heavier, and are
far apart, so the blouse has the effect of
a white rather than a colored garment.
These stripes are vertical, and at the top
of the blouse, where the yoke Is slmu,
lated by vertical tucks, the stripes con-
verge In such a way as to produce quite
a color effect. Many of these blouses are
made in the ordinary shirt waist style.
decorated only with the plated frill be-
fore mentioned.
Sometimes these striped waists have the
fronts, cuffs and collar embroidered with
linen thread to match the color OF the
stripe. OF course this embroidery must
be simple to. accord with the simplicity
of the striped design. The little bow tie
so popular now gives a touch of color to
the striped waist
A new idea which is very successful for
these thin blouses Is to have the yoke
and sleeves cut in one. The tucked yoke
extends into elbow sleeves, these being
fastened over lace band extending In
a straight line from the little narrow
guimpe.
The two drawings show charming de-
signs which do not require much work in
the making. Rather wide 'flet lace bands
and val lace edgng were used as trim
ming on one of the blouses-this one be-
ing of white null. The other design was
sketched from model in sheer dotted
swiss, trimmed with bands of white en-
broidered in pale pink, blue. and faint
green in dainty flower pattern.

Army Investment in Men

Patriotism aside, II uncle Sam wishes
to recruit higher class of men and more
of them into his army, he will have to
pay the rockies" better wages-for In
time of peace the army to the enlisted
man is nothing more or less, on the last
analysis, than a commercial proposition.
As matters now stand, our army is being
filled by CONSUMPTION just like the armies
of Europe.
1t matters not that European laws
compel compulsory service. With our
army, the compulsion comes either from
trouble at home, lack of ambition, loss
of job or wanderlust.
ut is surprising and gratifying" said
congressman R. Wayne Parker to rep
resentative of this page. ''the high cali
bre of the wearers of the army uniform,
but that is small thanks to the niggardly
policy of the government.
ST have investigated the matter and
find that the pay account of the United
States army Is not nearly one quarter
of the total appropriation. As the mat
ter stands, the cheapest thing in the
country is men-and they are still the
winning factors in battle. The pay of
the enlisted men should be brought to
its proper level"
