Gasoline Fumes the Real Bug De-
troyer, Say New Workers.
It may be possible that the ordi-
nance against automobiles entering
parks using gasoline, therefore in
evitably emitting blush streams of
smoke, is not altogether justified by the
facts. ::Vapors from machines consum-

In London, as was reported last
week., one OF the learned physicians,
speaking of the low death rate for that
city during the month of July, ascrfb-
ed the good health to the activity OF
automobiles, a greater number being
now in use than ever before in the
history of the English capital
The gasoline smoke is deadly to
bacteria and other poisons that infest
the air. he said. I've have all known
that the health Of livery stable en-
ployes is better than that OF any class
of workmen The reason is that the
natural ammonia keeps such. places
free from dangerous germs. And now
one finds. that garage employees are
likewise free from serious Illness
T. Tender-hearted mothers once upon
a time tried. to teach their children
that it was cruel to kill flies. Now
they encourage the destruction of
these pests. Science has demonstrated
that the fly. is a dangerous agent in
transmitting fevers and skin troubles.
Rats, that decade ago were. regarded
as harmless, are at present recognized
as foes to good health. We are ever
learning. .....

Here's another tale of the canny
Scot. H. ..- ~,
For once the American had discov-
cred something British that was bet
ter than anything they could produce
"across the pond" His discovery was
a fine collie dog, and 4he at once tried
to induce it's owner, an old shepherd,
to sell it. 49,: 5~. -.
"'Wad yet be takin' him to Ameri-
ca?' inquired the old Scot.
"Yes, guess so,'' said the Yankee.
II thocht as muckle," said the shep-
herd. II couldna part wi jock
But while they sat and chatted an
English tourist came up, and to him
the shepherd sold the collie for much
less than the American had offered,
"You told me you wouldn't sell
him. said the Yankee, when the pur.
chaser had departed.
"Na,'' replied the Scot; 81 said !
couldna' part wi him. Jock'll be
back in day or SO, but he couldna'

ture form. AS soon as the potatoes
are up these bugs begin feeding and
laying eggs on the young leaves. The
young that hatch from these eggs, as
well as the next brood, are the ones
that do the damage. Therefore, 1t is
necessary that treatment should be be-
gun as soon as the young beetles ap-
pear on the vines. Dust the plants
while the dew is on, with mixture
made Of l pound Paris green to 10
pounds Of slaked lime or cheap flour.
Another good method Is to spray the
plants with a composition Of 2 ounces
Of Paris green in 80 gallons of Bor-
deaux mixture, spraying the vines two
or three times. For this purpose the
Bordeaux mixture should be made out
OF 3 pounds Of bluestone and pounds
Of lime to 80 gallons Of water. This
mixture will not only kill the beetle,
but also prevent the early blight from
destroying the leaves and stems Of the
vines.

Quality of Seeds,

AS the result Of tests Of alfalfa, red
clover and grass seeds secured in the
open market Chief Galloway of the
bureau OF plants indusry makes a re-
port that is certainly Of interest to
farmers.
Red Clover.-Of the 1,21T samples OF
red clover seed secured 4O5, or one
third, contained seed Of dodder, 424
contained traces of yellow trefoil seed
and 135 bore evidence of having orig,
mated in Chile.
Alfalfa.-Of the 800 samples of al
falfa seed secured 191, or about one
half, contained seed Of dodder, 1876
contained trace Of yellow trefoil
seed, 120 contained a trace of sweet
clover seed, and 16 contained a trace
of bur clover seed.
Bromus Inermis.-Of the 50 samples
of Bromus inermis seed obtained Is
contained seed Of cheat, or chess, %
contained from to per cent of seed
OF the wheat grasses several con-
tained seed of meadow fescue and one
contained more than "a per cent of
meadow fescue and rye grass seed to-
gether
Kentucky Blue Grass.-Of the 429
samples Of Kentucky blue grass seed
obtained only 8 were found to be free
from any trace Of Canada blue grass.
In most Of these samples the trace of
Canada blue grass found was imma-
ture seed, showing that 1t was harv-
ested with the Kentucky blue grass
seed. The seeds Of the two plants not
ripening at the same time, it is i'm
probable that mature seed of Canada
blue grass would be harvested with
Kentucky blue grass seed. In 11O
samples, however, Canada blue grass
seed was found in quantities exceed
Ing 8 per cent, 80 of these being Can
ada blue grass seed misbranded as
Kentucky blue grass seed.

Appeal to authority may be so slavsh
or so trivial as to dishonor the author
ity and make the appellant ridiculous.
Did Lincoln approve of reducing the
tariff on wool, and If wood pulp had
been In use In his day, what would he
have thought Of the tariff on that ?
What was Paul Jones' view of the need
of an American naval station in the
Yappi Yappl Islands? Would Thomas
Jefferson have sanctioned course in
Celtic In an American university ?
What would Jackson have thought of
the Aldrich currency bill? These ques-
tions are no more absurd than many
which are seriously discussed in Jour
nails and assembly halls. Great men
are great precisely because they act in
obedience to principles which are too
deep and broad to bind the answers to
specific questions which arise in after
times.
