The Industrious Hen.

The value of the eggs and poultry
raised in this country last year was
1921, 17S, 055. 1t was more than the
combined value of the gold, silver,
sheep and wool. 1t was $4,000, 900
more than the wheat, and S21, 900 600
more than The entire cotton crop, and
N ore than the total value of all the
pork packed in this country. And for
the coming year il is safe TO say that
poultry VIII produce more money than
ever. People are going to eat more eggs
and poultry than heretofore. They
don't want SO much of those packing
house products whereof we have read
so much during the past few months
Just pin this fact to the inside OF your
hatband and figure to increace your
flock of chickens as much as you can.
You,ll be bound to be a winner. If you
have no chickens, and have place TO
keep some don't lose any time in
making start and utilize your spare
time for what it sure to be some "easy
money" for several years to come

An exchange prints the following
summary of court decisions bearing
upon the obi ration of subscriber to
pay for his paper. Even when the
defrauded publisher doesn't re sort
to the law, it is good for the man
who will not pay 10 know where he
stands in the opinion of the courts.
l. Subscribers who do not give ex-
press notice to the contrary are consid.
cred as wishing to renew their SUBJ
scriptions.
2. If subscribers order the discon-
tinuan e of their periodical, the pub
/ Usher may continue to send same un-
til all arrearages are paid
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their periodicals. from the post
Office 10 which they are directed, they
are responsible until they have settled
their bills and ordered them discon-
tinued.
4. III subscribers m owe to other
places without informin G the publish
err, and the papers are sent to the form
er address, they are held responsible.
5. The courts have decided that re-
fusing to take periodicals from the OF
flee or removing and leaving them I'M
called for, is prima facie evidence OF
Intentional fraud.
g. Ii subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish to

the man who allows his subscription
to run along for some time unpaid
and then orders 1t discontinued, or or

1t is with profound grief that we re-

the beloved wife of Mr.. G. w. Hodges,
whose illness we mentioned several
times recently, which occurred at the
City hospital where she has been for
treatment for several weeks OF Friday
evening, November 10. The cause Of
her death was Brlghts disease which
had been developing for some time.
1t was known for several days that
her recovery WAS impossible aud her
death was expected by her friends. The
deceased was the oldest daughter of
the lateSamuel Miller, but she went to
her uncle and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs. Morgan
Vanmetre when a mere child and there
lived all her life as their child. She
was most lovely girl, popular and
much admired by all and about ten
yeaes ago she married Mr.. &. w
Hodges, SON of the late G. Il. Hodges.
of Shepherdstown, who with her four
little children survive. The children
are in care of Mrs. Sallie Vanmetre

rearing aud education.

essed and qualified to manage their
own affairs.
"Glasscock's presence with ammuni-
tion to shoot down the good citizens
Of Braxton who would dare to protect
their wives and daughters was an out
rage that has never been equaied In
the state, that has a tendency to en-
courage the rapists. rhe truth Is, the
civil authorities were on hand and
were able to manage the affair with
out the aid Of troops, part of
whom were toxieated according to
the Governor, but why should those
who were drunken, di sorderIy and In
sulting to the citizens he honerably
discharged with those whose conduct
was exemplary, the Gov. says for lack
OF time TO investigate. Captain Moore,
who Is southern democrat and was
opposed by the local republicans was
dismissed but II insobriely IL an Of
tense, Captain Moore should not be
stoned by the Dawson q lasscock ad-
herents at Gassaway.
The military Ia an expensive adjunct,
great on dress parade but in action
they do not show up to suit the Gov

Then you think there was some pol
|itics mixed up Ia the Gassaway affair

IIdoubtedly. Did you ever see any Of
that gang come OF the field without
trying to profit by II? It's the way
they make their living.

Dawson while he was editor OF the
Parkersburg Dispatch News Is bit Of
history that ought TO be preserved.
The trouble with our party 10 that
while the rank and file are honest and
patriotic they are disposed to follow
the fact that thir liberties are being
usurped and their substance squander-
ed. With the natural resources Of
West Virginia every citizen ofthe state
ought to be rich and practically free
from any burden of taxation. We
have tar too many men In Office OF
small csliber, hand-me-dow In job
lots, products OF commercial craze
When asked about the merging OF
the York Imperial Orchard Company
with another company he replied that
he could not answer that question just
now, combination is the general order
of things at the present. The apple
industry Of our state Is becoming a
wonderful factor IN her commercial
interests and none can approximate its

Combsttns Injurious Insects With the
Aid OF Their Natural Enemies.


An interesting instance of success
full warfare waged against injurious
insects with the aid Of their natural
enemies is reported from Hawaii,
where the sugar Plantations have in
recent years been threatened with an
Inhalation by the ravages Of a small
cicada, little more than Is inch long.
Prof. Kirkaldy, the director of the
Honolulu chronological station, has
described the little inspect and named
it ParkidsieIla sacchaTicida. 1t pierces
the stem of the sugar cane and ex.
tracts the sap, causing the plant to
wither and die. Tue formidable char
acter of this insect pest Is due to the
amazing rapidity with which /. null
tiplies. Six generations are produced
annually and, on the assumption that
20 females of each brood live TO repro
duce their kind, it is estimated that
the progeny of one female, produced
in the course of u single year, numbers
ga millions The insect was indebted
ly introduced with the sugar cane from
other countries INTO Hawaii, where 1t
has multiplied enormously, as its nat
ural enemies, which limit its NUM-
hers elsew here. do not appear to have
been imported with it. Entomolo-
glsts, therefore, sent abroad to discover
original home of the little cieada to find
Its natural enemies, and to bring these
to Ha vail. 1t was necessary to extend
these laborious and costly investiga-
tions to every part of the world from
which sugar cane plants had been inn
ported. The home of the insect was
finally located In Australia, where two
Of it's most formidable enemies were
also foun d. These are two species Of
ichneum on fly; Of the genera Paranar-
gus aud Ovetertastichus, which lay
their eggs In the eggs of the cicada.
The first-named species destroys only
the cicada eggs in which its own eggs
are deposited, but the other species
pierces only one egg OF each cluster OF
cicada eggs and its larva destroys the
entire cluster. Both species have been
successfully colonized in Hawaii and
the prodigious increase of the sugar
cane ciada has thus been checked.
