DRIVE AWAY cUTWoRMs.

Cutworms are among the most
des dly enemies of all sorts OF garden
peas and beans, sweet corn, sweet
peas and many other plants. They
operate underground, cutting off the
plant Just below the surface of the
earth. To kill them or drive them
away, procure a small quantity of
carbon bisulphide at any drug store
and drop a little into a small hole
close to the plants to be protected,
filing the hole with earth afterward.
Make the hole by pushing a lead pen
ell into the earth to the depth of an
inch or so. The evil-smelling fumes
Of the bisulptide penetrate the earth
in all directions from the spot where
It is applied. killing and driving away
not only oitworms, but other pests.
WITHOUT in any way injuring the
plafas themselves. Carbon bisulphide
dropped with a medicine dropper into
ant hills will also drive ants off the
place.-IndiaRapolis News.

sse moderation in spraying, using
only enough to cover the foliage and

the trees drip heavily; also avoid
spraying in rainy, foggy, damp

well to spray for apple scab and other
diseases. Notwithstanding whatever

HAVE A BED OF ASPARAGUS.


There is no vegetable better for
early spring than asparagus, and it
is easily produced. Most people i'm
agine that It takes a great deal OF
trouble and a long time TO get aspar-
agus and that they must send Off to a
nursery and buy roots. This is all
needless. You can get asparagus
year sooner from seed than you can
from planting the dug roots, which
are checked by the digging. Prepare
a bed by deep digging or blowing and
work into It all the rotten manure
you cantor the soil must be heavily
MANFRED. Then mark out burrows
six inches deep and four feet apart.
Sow the seed as early in spring as
you can work the land in good order
and cover then an inch or more.
Then, as they grow, work the soil to
them till level. Thin out the plants
TO stand two feet apart in the row,
and cultivate clean all summer. In
the fall apply kainit at rate Of 500
pounds per acre, and as growth starts
in spring apply $50 pounds Of nitrate
of soda along the rows and this first
spring you can cut some good shoots,
but should not cut too long. Give a
good dressing of manure. Follow
this year after year and you will get
fine asparagus.-Farmers' Home

SUM M FER SCHOOL.
pr. Losey Explains Difficulties In
 Shakespeare.

Universally, July S.-(Special.)-Prof. Frederick D. Losey, of the University of Alabama, delivered an interesting lecture on Customs and Beliefs of Elizabethans'' before the summer school for teachers of the university today.
 The common thought that Shakespeare wrote obscurely was corrected by Profes- sor Losey who said that when we con- sider our constantly shifting vocabulary and the changes in habits and customs of a people in 3O0 years, the wonder is that there should be so few obsolete words in Shakespeare. Shakespeare was readily in telligible to the most ignorant knave in the pit he said, 50 perfectly did he re- fleet the time in which he wrote. It Is this reflection of an age from which we stand 300 years remote that makes the diff faculties encountered in reading Shakes peare.
 The customs, manners and superstitions of the Elizabethans were Interestingly ex- plained by Professor Losey who, citing passages, explained the words and figures from such sports as bear batting. bowling, hawking, cock and quail fighting, dice and card gaming, jousting. football, racing. etc. Classical allusions mytholosical tales. biblical stories were in the literature of that time evidences of learning for they were taken from the common stock of the people in that romantic age.
 Quoting and Interpreting many passages from Shakespeare's plays which reflected the customs or beliefs of the time, Profes- sor Losey showed the importance of pay ing attention to the little things in the life and history of a people, declaring effectively in conclusion that he would always entertain a doubt as to whether the defeat of the Spanish armanda was of greater consequence to England than was the introduction of the eating fork.

Knoxville. July Especial. Mot alone will East Tennessee National Guards learn to shoot with powder and ball, but they are to have special tar get practice in the weapons to be used against the great captain of death, consumption or tuberculosis. As Is to be shown by figures in Market hall more soldiers die from tuberculosis than are shot down in battles. so it Is eminently more important that Ten nessee's solder boys shall learn to fight tuberculosis than it is that they learn to use the service rife. To this end the medical officers of the ,battal- ion are much concerned With the ln- terest and cooperation of Maj. c. Fred Brown and Maj. James R. Nankivel. ranking medical officers. there will be at least one special meeting on tuber- culosis to be held at Camp Sevier. Wednesday afternoon addresses will be made by Capt.
