REPRESENTATIVE LONGWORTH
~ Is chairman of the committee
which is Investigating the Merchant
Marine league Of Cleveland, and the
foreign shipping trust, when Olcott,
the regular chairman, is absent.
Longworth was in the chair recently
and James L. Uhl of New York was
the witness. Uhl was telling of an at
tempt he had made to trace a certain
letter to it's source. He had to visit
foreign steamship agents. He gave
limitations on the stand of how these
agents talked. Longworth's face be-
gan to flush, because Longworth
doesn't like exhibitions of this sort.
"Oh," Longworth murmured, Il
think we have had enough of thai"
The murmur was loud enough to
reach the witness.
I'LL apologize" he said. "But when
was boy had a faculty for CIV
ing limitations, and my father was
never able to break me of the habit. -

THIS story has been floating around
/ the house In Washington. Nobody
offers to father It:
There was once a fiddler who was
very precise in his statements. He
wasn't much Of fiddler, and he knew
1t. It was not in his nature to claim
talent which he did not possess. One
hight there was a dance. The commit
tee couldn't get the regular music. So
they appealed to this fiddler. He said
he sure would play for them.
Are you a first-class f1ddler?" they
asked him.
NO." he admitted.
Are you a second-class fiddler?"
well, no.: I'm not even a second
class fiddler"
well, for gracious sakes, what are
you, then? Are you a fiddler at all?''
I'm not a f1rst-class fiddler" said
the honest musician. I'm not a Sec
ond-class fiddler even. But l stand
darned high in the third Glass;"
They took him on.

"A member of congress stood on tho

gazed at the capitol. There was a

"Yes," he said, "the flag is flying.

He went slowly, like boy on the

Il wish we'd get through" he said.
Since the repeated victories in tho

lowing: Congratulations. Democratic

Back in '96 some one wrote Reed to

Modern Ideas Of Mournjno.

MODERN IDEAS OF Mourning.
"The reason that modern mourning
differs so greatly from that worn q
generation ago is that men have risen
against it, said the dowager. MEN
as a body detest somber garments.
They argue that clothes cannot ex-
press grief, and that one can feel just
as deeply without depressing every
one about him by wearing Grape and
the other insignia of woe. Then, too,
mourning interferes not only with
pleasure, but with business. Occasions
are sure to arrive, If woman is in
mourning, when her husband wants
her to go to some dinner arranged
more for business than for pleasure.
and he finds it very annoying that
she cannot 60 without exposing her
self to criticism. But IL you want to
convince yourself how men feel on
the subject just ask any young mar
ried woman how she contrived to
reconcile her husband to the propriety
Of black clothes, especially If the de-
ceased relative was not bne to whop
he was much attached"

Cut Worm Destruction,

WI WI I" 000kI OSAbVus
The State Entomologist, Prof. r. l..
Washburn, says that some relief may
be had from cut worms by the use Of
poisoned bats, made and applied az
follows: Make a bran mash, sweeten
with molasses or brown sugar, and
add enough Paris green to make it q
decided green color. A big tablespoon
full Of this placed at intervals among
the plants, just at nightfall, will at
tract the cut worms, and kill a large
number. These bats should not be
put too close to the plants for fear
rain will wash the Paris green against
the plants and injure them. Cut
worms do not die Immediately upon
taking this poison, but it is sure death
after few hours. Traps, consisting
of pieces of board, placed about the
garden, may be used, under which the
cut worms will be found in the morn
ing. Some birds prey upon them, and
various parasites and predaceous in
sects attack them. In the case Of field
crops, where it is possible, frequent
cultivation will turn the worms up,
enabling birds and other enemies to
prey upon them.

Four college girls of Miss Shep-

Tomato soup, croutons; second.
stuffed heart, potato puff, lima beans,
Parker House rolls, mint ice; third,
Waldorf salad, pastry sticks; fourth,
Rhubarb pie, cream meringue, coffee,

hall the meals cost each student at

the actual cost Of the food, eaten il
about 8 cents.

Fodder Corn.-At the Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station it is thought that fod-
der corn may be planted this year up
to the 10th or 18th of June. It will
yield several more tons per acre than
hay. Harrow the field smooth, SOW
the corn in drills three feet to three
feet eight inches apart and the kernels
from one to two inches apart in the
row. Fodder corn may be narrowed
until it is two or three inches high,
but narrowing this must not be con.
strued as suggesting the narrowing of
field corn. Such narrowing is regarded
at the Station as bad practice. Guilt.
vate the fodder corn every week
through the growing season.

The Minnesota Experiment Station
does not recommend the killing of an
animal for the purpose of human food
within twenty-four hours after feed
ing. When an animal is on full feed it
is impossible to thoroughly drain the
veins. Food in the stomach rapidly
decomposes after the animal is killed,
and the gases generated often flavor
the meat disagreeably. Water, how.
ever. may be given up to the time of
slaughter. It keeps the temperature
normal and helps to wash the effete
matter out Of the system. A nicely
colored carcass results.

Fight Quaek Grass Now.
Get to work now on the small
patches of qnack grass. Set them
apart for specr2% attention during the
rest of the summer. Keep the under
ground stems from being dragged to
other parts of the field. II the patches
are two large to smother with tar pa
per dig up the grass, shake out the
roots and underground stems carefully,
and haul them from the field and burn.
A five or six-tined fork will be found
a valuable tool for this work. If dead
the roots and stems may be plowed
under to increase fertility. Look the
patches over every week to catch any
plants that may have been left or
that may have developed. These
patches may be planted to any cult
waited crops. For management of large
patches or fields Of quack grass see

Seed Corn Week, Sept. 19th-24th, 1910.
Are you really interested in having
better seed corn for next season?
Would you be willing to assist in boost
the line of production and particularly
along the line of corn? Could you be
counted on to cooperate with the ex-
tension division by saving your seed
corn early this season and urging your
neighbors to do the same?
We need to make this "seed corn
week" a statewide movement.
Reports received at the Minnesota
Experiment Station at st. Anthony
Park from Minnesota Farmers who
raise large yields of corn and potatoes
show that the cultivation Of corn i'm
mediately after planting (when it may
be done deeply and kept up as long
as possible in the season, gives the
best yields and best quality of grain.
Cultivate shallow, not more than one
to two inches deep, after the roots be-
gin to grow.
The Old Method Of cuitivating corn
was to go over the field with drag
when the corn was just coming up.
This method is no longer recommend
ed by the Minnesota department of
agriculture. Modern methods at Uni
versity Farm, st. Anthony Park, are
the use of the cultivator and deep
stirring Of the earth as soon as plant
ing is over, and shallow cultivation
when the roots have started.

In rotation Of grass, grain and corn is

Strawberries.-The Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station has had best results
by cultivating the strawberries set out
in the spring, and by picking OF all
blossoms that appear during the first
year. Fruiting the first season weak
ems the plants. The Station keeps the
runners in the row where they will
take root and form new plants.
Kill the weeds in the corn and pota-

crops need and prevent the circulation
Of air thus encouraging the spread Of
plant diseases. They shade the ground
and keep the soil from absorbing heat
