Boston-Just at this time, when the
finest fleet ever assembled under one
flag has started on its record-breakng
voyage. 1t Is interesting to record the

OF Commodore Perry when he sailed
Into the Japanese harbor OF Yedo in
July, 1863.

LAST DAYS OF
THE STANCH OLD
SHIP SARATOGA

100000 souls We had no idea we
had frightened the empire so badly
as the capital was 40 or so miles away
from our anchorage AS we proceed
ed up the harbor, boats fed away from
US as though in mortal fear
by the time we were well anchored
and shipshape the city officials took
heart. swarms Of picturesque man
darins came of to challenge the
strange arrivals and to draw around
the fleet the customary Gordon Of
guard boats. They even tried to make
fast their boats to our ships
This began to look like being In
custody The American ambassador
had not come to Japan to be put under
sentries He notified the mandarins
that his vessels were not pirates and
need not be watched. They pleaded
Japanese law. He replied with Ameri-
can law. They still insisted. He noti
fed them that If the boats were not
instantly withdrawn he would open
his batteries and sink them. That was
entirely convincing. The guard boats
stood not on the order of their going.

barians are coming to defile the holy

Japs cazed In Wonder.
The boatman at his souls and the
junk sailor at the tiller gazed in won
der at the painted ships Of the west
ern world. The farmer, standing knee
deep in the ooze Of the rice fields,
paused to marvel.
Had the barbarians harnessed vol
canoes? With wind blowing in their
teeth and sails furled, the monsters
curled the white foam at their front,
while their black throats vomited
sparks and smoke To the gazers at a
distance, as they looked from their
village on the hilltops, the whole
scene seemed a mirage created by the
breath Of CLAIMS. Such. their child
hoods beliefs taught them, must be
the case.
Boats dashed here and there about
the harbor, like a flock of frightened
gulls. They fed. Then paused, to see
how far behind the strange visions

Career Of the Saratoga.
The Saratoga was built in Kittery
Me- In 1912. when New England was
at the height Of It's fame in the ship
building world. It was named for the
flagship of Commodore Oliver Perry,
the famous brother Of the Japanese
hero. This flagship won the battle Of
Lake Erie in the war OF 1912.
She did some useful work as one Of
Commander Perry's feet which went
to punish the piratical black tribes
along the African coast. Village after
village was burned during these op-
erations, and once the commander
himself only escaped death at the
hands Of King Crack-O, who was the
possessor Of a scythe-like sword by
his own courage and agility and by
the quickness Of a sergeant Of marines,
who shot the king.
The Saratoga was also present dur
ing the Mexican war, wheh Commo-
dore Perry, then Capt Perry, saved
the situation for the American forces
with his naval guns. After returning
from her long service in eastern wa

Perry's mission, the Saratoga was

and about as inflammable as that of gasoline, spark from a cigar or pipe being sufficient to ignite it. It is, however. no more dangerous in this respect than gasoline. The vapor is also very poisonous to all animal life, but no one need fear inhaling small quantities of it in the open air. As purchased at drug stores. carbon bi- sulphide is rather expensive; but if bought in fifty-pound lots it can be se- cured for about ten cents a pound. A grade known as 'fuma carbon bisul- phide" is manufactured by Mir. Ed ward R. Taylor. Cleveland. Ohio; it Is much cheaper than the ordinary car bon bisulphide and at least as efficient Mir. Taylor will be glad to quote prices on application. If two teaspoonfuls of the fuma bisulphide are used to the hill. the cost of the material will be less than one cent hill.
 It sometimes happens that vines be- come infested a second time with ap rids after they are too large to be fumigated. This condition, which is due to incomplete fumigation or to a second flight of the insects. can be best controlled by excessive irrigation.  An abundance of moisture with ordi- narily rich soil means an abundance of foOdsupply which will greatly assist the plant to outgrow the attack. The prevailing hot weather at this time, is favorable for the growth of melon vines, is unfavorable for the rapid multiplication of plant-lice. Also the numerous enemies, chief of which are the lady bugs, are usually more than able to hold the pest in check during the summer months. Lady-bugs are hemispheric in form and about the size of half-pea; the commoner spe- cies are yellow or red with black spots on the wing covers. The larvae of these insects, which are small. flattened grubs of a bluish or blue-black color, devour the aphids even more rapidly than the adult forms.
