HOW TO COMBAT THE
WHEAT JoiNTWoRM

Practically the whole of Ohio, ex.
cept Is or 20 of the northeastern coun-
ties, has suffered more or less seri.
ously from the wheat jointworm, the
past season. The loss to the state as
whole has been In the neighborhood
of 3 to 20 per cen. of the crop. Many
townships report damage of so to 60
per cent.
In some neighborhoods parasites
are making fine Roadway and may
save next seasons crop from percep
tble damage Insects escaping be-
tween harvest time and winter
through small round holes cut in the
walls of the straw are parasites and
not the adults of the jointworm.
These parasites are two-brooded and,
II numerous, will clean the stubble
fields of jointworm larvae before the
opening of next season. The straw
from other localities produces but few
parasites or none.
The adults of the jointworm aRpear

should therefore keep these points
we'll in mind when planning for next
years crop:
/. Sow from one week to ten days
earlier than Is customary IN your
neighborhood. Other things being
equal in every instance OF which we
have knowledge, the early sown wheat
was much better the past season, In
badly infested territory, than that
which was late sown
O. Have the seed bed worked into
the best possible condition before
seeding.

fers in the same manner as late sown
wheat and for the same reason, viz.

worms too long a period in which to

5. Sow as far as possible from

Not very long ago after Barnums

young men appeared at Lancaster

remarked Judge Edward Mckee, OF
the First district. The young men
were exhibiting their petrified man In
a tent, charging 10 cents admission
To the large and keenly interested
crowd they explained that while

some peculiar scars In the back were

that the soldier had died and turned

The boys protested, but In vain. They
tried to get out OF town with their

under bond. The petrified man was
laid out in state and the coroner

HENRY cLEws, Letter.

NEW YORK. May 5I.-Efforts to
hf. the stock market have thus far
met with only occasional success. aud
arguments in favor Of higher prices
fail to enlist the desired attention
of buyers. Whether this is because
of suspicion that the big men have
been encouraging a rise for the pur-
pose Of Kidding themselves of surplus
stocks, or else making market for
pending new issues; or whether It is
due to some other and as yet unrec-
ogaized tendencies remains to be seen.
Compared with the high prices Of
last year, good locks certainly look
cheap, and yet there are some unpleas-
ant features developing the outcome of
which must be awaited with patience.

may be holding back for better terms.
In the later attitude they are meet

adelphia could not place a loan al

DISPUTE CONTINUES OVER THE

Boston There continues to be
considerable agitation over the cost
predictions which are being made
for some OF the new low-grade por
phyry producers. 1t is we'll known.
ofcourse. that the Amalgamated peo-
pie will not admit that these low
grade mines can for any length of
time make copper for anything like
the figures which are being claimed.
and further assert that the low costs
now being shown are made possible
only by eliminating from the expense
account items which should by
right be included
But then. say some. The AmaIga,

YOUNG UPROlDs

TUCSON May Si.-one Of the eheii
purposes OF Acting Governor George
e. Young in coming TO Tucson at the
present time aside from the delivery
OF the high school commencement
address. was 10 make an inyestiga-
fior and report on the facts in the
controversy between the Tea.itoriai
Horiiculura, Commission and J. H.
Fleming, the owner Of large orange
srcve near Phoenix. many of whose
sapiimg trees the commission. under
the direct agency of Territorial Era
romologist A. W Morrill, destroyed
Acting Governor Young had stud
led all che records in the governors
office and in Office Of the territorial
entOmoiigist and he wished 10 inyes-
tigate those OF Attorney General
Wright before making his report.
Prof. Forbes OF the University. a
member of the commission, stated to-
lay rhat the report was as fair to all
parties concerned as could possibly
be- made.

Young says in part.
have investigated the actions OF
Mr a. W. Morrill,, the territorial
ntomoIog,st in lis destruction of &
carload OF Grange trees which had
he,.n consigned 10 J. H. Fleming and
Mr Fleming planted upon his
ranch rear Phoenix.
The inspection OF these trees dem
onsrrate conciusiveiy that they were
badly infected by The mealy bug.
However. Mr. MorriI. in the hope
that something might be done to as
sist Mr. Fleming in the matter, made
some tentative arrangements with
him subject to the approval of the
horticultural commission. by which
the trees might be planted on the
desert in nursery form and carefully
watched. with the idea, h possible.
of eliminating the infection.
Before such an arrangement could
be made, however Mr.. Morrill, was
informed that such action would be
Illegal and he therefore notified Mr.
T AtnAAAS tHdt tll@ lAENo NtHlu nave
to be destroyed or removed from the
territery, and a certificate of release
was denied. Thereafter Mr.. Fleming
had the trees removed to his ranch
and there planted in nursery form.
No certificate of release had been
granted him.
Continuing Acting Governor
Young tells of the steps taken to de-
stroy the trees and OF the repuise OF
The territorial agents from the Flem-
ing ranch by Flemings foreman
Stewart. and OF the resulting trial
before Justice Parker of Phoenix.
Referring to the action of the at
torney general in advising Morrill, to
destroy the trees. which advice
Morrill, has since followed the act

tions in the matter, was governed
