The following letter from G. P.
Gillette Of the State Agricultural col
Iege to County Horticultural inspector
Taylor, is sself-explanatory
Fort Collins, Colo, July 10, 1907.
Mr.. p. $. Taylor,
Dolores, Colo.
Dear Mr.. Taylor--I have your letter
and the little package of insects. The
insect you send is the Western Bean
Beetle. The beetle belongs to the
family of lady-beetles but, unlike the
other members of the family, this bee
tie feeds upon vegetation. 1t is by far
the worst bean enemy in Co1orado and
New Mexico. 1t would be easy to com
bat it through the use of afsenical
poisons We're it not for two things. first,
it feeds upon the under side of the
leaves, and secondly, the bean plant is
so extremely sensitive to the applfca-
tion of arsenicaf poisons that it is diff
cult to make an application that will
kill the beetle and not injure the bean
leaves. l have not found it practical
to use Paris green or London purple at
all but we have been fairly successful
with Arsenate of lead in the proportion
of pounds to 100 gallons Of water.
One OF our resident physicians, who
had a field of beans, tried brushfn ing the
beetles and their larvae off the Vines
upon the ground In the middle of hot
day and he reported that none were
able to get back. l have tried this
several times and with good success.
Ii the beetles can be kept In check In
this way, it prevents or does away
with the need Of applying poisohs that
are liable to do more harm than good.
| Very truly,
G. p GUILLETTE.

And here is a dispatch sent over the
Associated Press wires and appear
ing in the Lincoln Journal Tuesday
morning:
kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 21.-Five
striking operators made application
for their old positions in the local
Office of the Western Union today.
Three were taken back and the appli
cations of the two others were held
in allegiance.
Why did the Kansas City office take
back three strikers if the offices were
fully manned" by Competent opera
tors?"
Similar news" is being sent out
from all the large cities. Somebody
is either lying like thunder now, or
were lying like thunder few weeks
ago.
Or can it be possible that the Elliot
heroes the strikebreakers are being
ditched to make room for returning
strikers, and that, too, after all the
Western Union /and Postal promises
that the faithful would be taken
care of in any and all events?

disease. He could not sleep. For
nearly a week this was continued. In
desperation he finally knocked at the
door of his neighbor and found the
father of the sick child almost sink
ing with fatigue, yet trying to minister
to the constant needs of the invalid.
The mother had been worn out and
had fallen down, exhausted, during
the day. In the most embarrassed
way he offered his services as nurse.
He had never before spoken to the

to do. Soon the sick one fell asleep,
three nights he performed this SER
vice, getting just a few hours sleep.
Towards the dawning of the last morn
ing the child passed away, in his own
arms. AS he tenderly laid the body
down upon the bed, there seemed to
go with the departed spirit, all the
bitterness in his own SOUL The rasp

ally been softened. His eyes had

his speech. The spirit of helpfulness
had taken possession of him. He
seemed to make every other mans
burdens his own. By bitter expert
ence he had learned that other hearts
have their aches, and as he learned
more about others trials, he became
comforter instead of cynic. 1t
was this evolution in Kings life
| which affected not only himself, but
nearly every other fellow in the shop.
More of the spirit of brotherliness
prevailed. Deeper became the sense
of responsibility one towards the
other. 1t needed the sacrifice of a
life, but out of that sacrifice there

become greatly excited about any
thing But during the days of GER
tain week there came a new express
sion into his face. Gradually the
story of the change became known.
For years there had been in his
home a little invand-a seven-year-
old daughter. He had been caring for
her most tenderly, carrying her about,
and nursing her better than could
have been done by a trained servant.
Just across the hall in the tenement
in which he lived there was another
family in which there was a daughter
of the same age as his own, but
strong, hearty and well. Her laughter
and singing cut him deeply, because
his child never laughed and sang that
way. Her romping on the streets and
in the back yard simply goaded him
into a state of frenzy. Why could not
his little girl do these things? These
thoughts had made him bitter, cynical
and almost cruel to others, while he
devoted himself more fully than ever
to his helpless sick one.
But one day the cause of his un-
happiness became very i'll. He could
hear her moaning in the night, as she
suffered the tortures of a frightful

in 16 hours per day at the scabbery,
and counted on heavy pay day. To
his surprise he learned on going to
the window for his coin that there
was a good sized garnishee against
his money presented by a lady who
had long ago lent him and despaired
of ever getting it back. Ha! Ha!
A few days later Mccormick was
being escorted home by Kerry po-
liceman who hates scab as the devil
hates holy water. After going some
distance Mccormick said: sMr. Of
ficer, I guess 1 will navigate alone
now. I'm kind of ashamed to be seen

A Little Story Of How One Man Saw
a Great Light.


a Great Light.
There was always half-cynical
smile on his lips. The upper part of
his face never seemed to laugh. The
wrinkles were up and down instead
of across His chief asset was his
tongue He could talk. But most Of
the things that he said might better
have been unspoken. He did not hest
tate to sacrifice his friends in his
bitterness. He could say enough cut
ting things in a day to make a dozen
men feel all ripped up for a week.
Naturally, therefore, he had few
friends. No man felt like getting
very close to him in confidence. There
was nothing sacred to him. Religion,
home, women, morality-all suffered
at his hands.
We wondered what he did with
himself when he was away from the
shop. There seemed to be for him no
deep interest in anything. He was a
literal anarchist-alone, unsocial, a
law unto himself or course, he did
not throw bombs. He apparently did
not take enough interest in life to

Judge A. G. Dayton in the Federal

That this is deliberate lie is
proved by dispatches carried by the

week. Here is one that appeared in
the Lincoln Star last Tuesday:
Omaha, Oct. 22.-Three striking
telegraph operators including the Sec
rotary and treasurer of the local un-
ion, returned to work today Two

Now, If the telegraph companies in

said the strikers had perfect right

no right to prevent others from taking

Mr.. Bryan Immediately accepted and
set the hour for $3.50 Monday after
noon. He was greeted by splendid
audience of union operators and their
friends. The Sunday New York Her
aid contained the following news
paragraph which clearly shows Mr..
Bryan's attitude towards organized
labor:
Letters from Mr.. Bryan in explana-
to important messages sent to him
from this city by telegraph were brief
but pointed. He merely said the rea-
son he did not answer by telegraph
was his determination not to file mes
sages with the telegraph companies
SO long as they were involved in
strike with their employees. He laid
down no hard and fast rule, but 1t was
said that only in cases of absolute ne
cessity would he feel justified in filing
messages with the telegraph com
