eggs hatch in few days, and the
young grubs eat varacionsly and con-
tinuously on the potato plant. The
length of time spent in this stage de-
ponds somewhat on the warmth of the
locality. As soon as they have reach
ed full size, the grubs 90 into the
ground and there change into the
mature or shelled form, which energies
the same summer. In the East these
lay eggs for another brood of young,
which has time to mature before late
fall. 1t has only this summer been
ascertained by the Montana Expert
ment Station that the bugs have but
one brood at Bozeman, Mont, and OBJ
servations in the higher part of the in
fected area in Idaho indicate that the
same may be the case with part Of the
insects here. 1t is certain however
that some of the bugs which mature
in the middle of summer with us lay
eggs and new brood comes on, but
not so numerous as the one which pre-.
coded it. The rest of the bugs matur.
ing in midsummer in Idaho live over
through the remainder of summer and
the following winter before they lay
their eggs. Whether the wintering
beetles are of the first or second brood
they winter in the same way, by bur.
rowing deep in the ground
Manner of Spread.-When the
adults came up out of the ground in
the spring they weigh less than hall
as much as they did when they began
Information in the fall, although the
hardness of the shell makes this loss OF
weight imperceptible to the eye. They
are very hungry, however, and in
their search for food they will rise on
= the wing and sometimes fly for miles
This is the time when they spread
As soon as they find potato plants
they quiet down and feed peacefully
the rest Of their lives, moving only .
few feet at most. Hence during til.
summer there is little or no spread
after the over-wintered adults have be
come settled on their food plants
Whether the beetles spread in the fal
is question not yet fully understood
probably they do not move very much
and in any case they do not lay egg
till the following spring.
How to Prevent the Spread of thu
Beetle.-Watch potato vines carefully
when they first come up, and destroy
any bugs that appear before they have
laid eggs. If this were done in all thu
territory adjoining that which is nov
infested, of course there could be M
permanent spread. The matter de
(pends entirely on the watchfullnes'
and energy of those raising potatoes il
the region adjacent 10 the infested ter
ritory. While we can hardly hope
that all spread will be prevented, W.
can reasonably hope and expect thai
enough vigilance will be exercis

Small T ak.

A young fellow in Bloomington, ILL.,.
who has been devoting himself for
some years to a young woman of that
town, recently found himself in most

taken his courage in both hands and
was going to ask the girl"

feet uneasily and swallowed the lump
in his throat, I'm anxious to have

lady entered the room where the low

Poisoned bv HoneysuckIe.

One of the most favorite and beauti'
full of our flowers is the common
honeysuckle, but it would seem to
have it's dangers. The London Lancet
mentions a case occurring in the prac-
tice of DIR. Engh of Volden, in which a
little boy two years old was poisoned
by its flowers.
The child, after being in the garden
playing with the flowers, became tired
and drowsy and then complained OF
thirst Our contemporary describes
the symptoms that followed and adds
that the boy made good recovery
but was peevish and inert for some
days. Various kinds of honeysuckle
have been used incidentally as diuret-
les and diaphoretics, and it is well
that it should be known that some of
the varieties at all events are far
from harmless. The flowers appear to
be specially dangerous when freshly
picked

Strombcij's Spasms.

Stromboli, in pouring out streams OF
lava, is playing a most Unusual part.
For the remarkable character OF this
aeolian isle is that it vomits flame per-
sistently and cinders spasmodically.
The Lighthouse of the Mediterranean
has been known to stick to its func-
ton OF torch-bearer (without dropping
an ounce of tar tor the space of 1000
wears. Whenever the tiny, irregular
eruption takes place the stones drop
back again into the crater While the
ancients regarded Stromboli various y
as the smithy of Vulcan and the head
quarters of Aeolus, the men of the
Middle Ages looked upon it as the
main highway to purgatnry.

GRAVEL SUPPLY SLOW.

went up to the gravel pit at Fordyce
this morning to diagnose the trouble
with the crusher installed there a
few months ago which, theoretically,
should turn out gravel faster than it
could be used at this end but has
not performed up to expectations.
This is causing a delay on the MeXi-

the concrete, being delayed because
Of the lack of gravel. Piers number
