BURN COTTON STALKS.
Is the Advice of Louisiana Crop
Expert.

Secretary Newell, Of the Crop Pest
Commission OF Louisiana, has just
completed a series of experiments
and compiled and published the data
therefrom, proving beyond doubt the
efficacy and wisdom of his often re
peated advice to burn the cotton
stalks in September and October.
The experiments were conducted
at Mansura, La, and consisted in
picking live weevils at different per-
iods during the autumn, putting them
in cages without food, then counting
them in the spring and summer to
see how many lived through the
varying periods of enforced hiberna-
ton
OF those segregated between Sept
28 and Oct Il, only 3 per cent lived
until spring.
OF those segregated between Oct
IS and Nov. I, only IS per cent lived
OF those segregated in November
~ per cent lived
OF those not segregated until Dec
ember, AZ per cent were ready for
foraging this summer
In other words. in fields where cot
ton stalks were destroyed in Sept
ember, only 3 per cent would have
/ been alive to devastate the crops the
next summer, while if the fields were
/ left until December nearly one hal
/ the weevils would have been able tC

J. Park Thompson OF Lewis Township.
Ends Life with CarhoIic Acid.
FEARED PENITENTIARY SENTENCE
Was to be Tried This Week on
Charge Of Selling Mortgaged
Property.

Coroner Emil johnson was
called to Maxbass Monday to
hold an inquest over the re-
mains of J. Park Thompson,
who had committed suicide
Sunday evening at the home Of
his son Walter, living five miles
south of Maxbass in Lewis
township.
Thompson was sixty-five
years of age, a widOwer, and
made his home with his son.
He took two ounces of carbolic
acid Sunday evening and was
discovered shortly before life
was extinct.
He was arrested some time
ago on charge of selling
mortgaged property and his
case was docketed for the pres
ent term of court. AS convic-
ton was practically certain, it
is thought the old man took
his own life rather than live
and face the charge.

The February House keeper.

Dr.. q. Stanley Hall, so we'll
known for his trenchant para
graphs about education, is no
less wonderful in his dramatic
phases than usual in an in
tensely interesting article in
The Housekeeper for February.
The title is, "How Can We
Make the Average Public
School Good School," The
article is one of a series on
public school conditions by we'll
known authorities. Mrs. G. N.
Williamson has stopped writing
best sellers for little while
and has contributed to the
number short story, Colonel
Cayley's Tea a-Party.' 1t is
charming. The Pink and
White Valentine,' by Edith
Livingston Smith, is an ap-
pealine story timely to the
month. Preventing Fire
LOSSES" by Edward Peterson,
is for practical application.
The fashion, flowers, fancy
work, cookery and helpful
pages are as useful and sug-
gestive as ever.

500 Train Strikes Team.

Omemee Herald: The 500
train was a few minutes late
Tuesday morning owing to an
accident, that happened at
Kramer. A team of horses be-
longing to a farmer, by the
name of Adolph Feller, was
struck by the engine just as
the train was pulling into town
and the horses were so badly
mangled that they were ordered
to be shot. The sleigh was
completely demolished and it
was necessary to back up the
train in order to dislodge the
debris from under the snow
plow attached to the engine.
Mr.. Feller sustained several
serious bruises but it is thought
that he will suffer no perma-
nent injury.
