Screens For Cabbage Seed Beds.

A year ago the growers of cab
bage plants suffered severe losses
from the ravages of flee BEETLES
which ate little round holes in the
seed leaves, causing them to
shrivel and the plants TO die.
The beetles causing this injury
are tiny. black insects. which
have the habit of dropping to the
ground. or jumping from the
plants when disturbed. They de-
light in bright sunshine and the
most severe injury is done on
warm. sunny days.
Turnips and radishes are also
attacked. Some years it is al
most impossible to get stand of
these vegetables.
In the open garden some re-
lief can be obtained by dusting
the leaves of the young plants
with air-slacked lime, or better,
with insect powder. The latter
remedy is rather expensive. but a
very good one in small garden
patches.
When cabbage plants are raised
in beds, either in hot beds or the
garden. the beetles may be kept
from them by the use of screens
made from cheese cloth. A light
wooden frame should be made,
extending about two feet above
the surface of the bed. The cheese
cloth is stretched over this. ex-
tending to the ground on all sides.
The edges that touch the gronnd
may be lightly covered with earth
to prevent the beetles from find
ing their way beneath. The cost
OF this method OF protection will
be in the neighborhood of twenty
cents for each thousand plarts
raised. :. ARTHUR JOHNSON.

SATURDAY NIGHT MUSINGS.
By A Montrose Boozer.

The GROWER rushing days are DER,
All mel amt it shame
To bring US up ON malt and rye,
Then spoil our little game?
'Tis hard to wean man like me,
You'll see; it cant be done;
I'll HE me from this barren waste
To dear old Gunnison.
There's Murray's place and Hogan's joint
And Hards' Is hard to beat,
And when we get to going right
Wen drift way down the street.
And there wen find the best of all,
The place 10 get 'well DONE
Where all is moist, and damp, and wet,
And run by Paddy Gum.
1t takes moisture for our berries,
Alfalfa. prunes and pears.
And 'drouth" is something awful.
Brings blight, and weeds. and tares.
without moisture there's no penehes,
No perfume for the rose.
No buds upon the appletreer.
No blossom on my nose.
So of we go to irrigate.
Why droop, and lag. and NOPE,
When without moisture nothing thrives
Here on the Western slope?

Fighting tuberculosis.

At the last meeting of the ex-
ccutive council OF the Modern
Woodmen. held at the headquar-
tiers OF the society at Rock Island.
Ill. it was decided TO conduct the
society's sanitarium at Colorado
Springs. for the treatment OF
members afflicted with iubercu-
losis. free of all charge TO men,
bers.
The Modern Woodmen society.
several months since. acquired
1850 acres of land within seven
miles of Colorado Springs. and
has established an up.to date san
itarium. the tent colony plan be-
ing employed. The first colony
was opened for the reception OF
patients on January l. 1909. 1t is
equipped to care for GO patients,
to which number admission will
be limited for the present.
The tents are octagonal struc-
lures. with shingle roofs. canvas
sides, hard wood floors on solid
cement foundations. heated by a
central plant equipped with all
modern oonveniences. such as
telephones. etc. and each tent
will accommodate one patient.
An administration building for
physicians. nurses, dining hall,
baths of all kinds. etc. stands in
the center of the colony.
A movement is already under
way to equip the second colony
plant of 80 tents. Each tent or
tent house, completely equipped,
represents an expense of $3.50
and a number of local camps of
the society have decided to do
nate tents. AS there are over
$4,000 local camps of Modern
Woodmen, and over 100000
members, it is anticipated that
several colonies will soon be
equipped in this way.
The members and local camps
of the society have voluntarily

count the first ascension as one
of the most dramatic incidents in
their lives. says Roy Knabenshue
in the Delineator for May. No
one who has ever gone into the
sky forgets the incidents of his
first aerial trip. for the anticipa-
tion is SO keen and tits filled with
SO many surprises that the i'm
pressions are indelible. | can
recall with great clearness my
first balloon ascension, which /
made from the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition grounds in 1904.
This first flight was more or less
revolutionary. In a sense. it was
pioneer work and followed much
public discussion and anticipation
aroused by the inteest taken at
the time in aeronautics by the
management of the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition This was
the first general attention given
to the possibilities OF aerial navi-
CATION, and it was occasioned by
an offer made by the Exposition
management in 1908 of two
hundred thousand dollars in
prizes for successful flights. Prior
to that time even suggestion of
aeronautics had brought only
ridicule from all quarters.
1t is well enough for a young
man TO dream of flying through
the air steering a mechanically
operated airship, but when the
time arrives for that ship to be
launched the young man is very
likely to have some misgivings.
