Consequently letters were sent among the
farmers, asking for boxes of sound bugs
These bugs were to be given the disease and
returned with directions for spreading It. The
response was surprisingly immediate. Boxes
OF bugs poured into the express Offices and
yet more boxes OF bugs. Farmers from neigh
boring states heard OF the offer and they too,
went bug hunting. The express companies
worked overtime. The assistants in the ento-
mologist's office became mere undertakers for
bugdom. The mouldy bugs were sent out on
their benefcent mission of destruction. Then
the results came in. They varied; they did,
indeed. Some thought the entire ~entomolo-)
gists office should be fitted out with golden,
glorious halo the rescuer OF its country:
others alas! thought FOOLS cap would fit the
case more exactly.
But although the disease project could not
be called a complete success, means we're

breaks. The barrier methods and sprays with
kerosene emulsion will catch them every
time. Just after harvest the scarcity OF food
In the wheat fields arouses In the chinch an

an appetite for corn. This is the time to make

the chinch desires to infest. This Is done by
blowing backward furrow which is packed
with light roller or by hand and has q line
Of tar poured upon It from a can with a
tubular spout Post holes are dug at intervals
of about twenty feet. BY keeping the tar
line fresh his chinchship cannot cross, but will
follow It to the posthole, into which he speed
lily tumbles. It then is merely pleasant recre-
alton for the farmer to travel out and pour
a weak solution Of kerosene upon his accu.
INFLATED enemies Kerosene Is an excellent
death dealer for these pests. When they get
into the cornfelds the farmers of Illinois sally
forth with an emulsion containing four per
cent. Of kerosene and half as much whale oil
soap mixed by ave minutes simple beating
with stick. This Is dirted by hand upon the
corn in the cool OF the day when the insects
feed most thoroughly and when there is less
danger Of injury to the corn. Sometimes a
single application Goes the work; when the
infestation is very bad two and even three
may be required.

ering the way to conquer pair OF these
precious rascas that DR.. Forbes has made
his most valuable single contribution to sci
ence. They are the corn field ant and the
corn root-aphis or, as 1t Is better known.
the corn root louise. For a long time they
were the particular scourge of the corn
grower who supposed that they operated each
on its own account. Through the research OF
DR.. Forbes 1t is now known that one is help
less without the other. The resourceful and
Industrious ant is entirely unable to extract
the coveted sap from the corn root, and the
stupid aphis would, II left to itself, starve In
the very presence of the corn. But the ant
can carry the aphis to the corn root and de-
post 1t thereupon; the aphis can extract the
sap and then exude It, thus passing 1t on to
the ant. Therefore 1t was not problem of
discriminating two foes but of outwittng the
clever little ant Were It banished, the aphis
would soon disappear. The wretched little
soft-bodied hunk o. creation can do nothing
for itself except lay eggs and suck corn sap.
The ant gives II a home in its own burrows
matches its eggs for It, carrying them to the
warm surface II they are slow, bearing them
farther into the ground II they threaten to
hatch before its food supply is ready. And
this protection extends through the aphis' life
II, because of blowing or other inadvertence
the ant finds its charges scattered, it will
cheerfully collect them and reconstruct its
home II that has been molested Also The ant
has nothing else to do and 1t is as active as
an outraged Puritan conscience. However,
methods Of control have been found. The use
of the disk and crop rotation will extermnate
them. The root-aphis refuses entirely to oc-
cupy ground planted to pats. so this crop is
of the greatest Importance in clearing fields Of
them. Also by disking two or three times
with 20inch disk In spring especially on a
sunny day when the arts ARE likely to have
their charges near the surface, they will be
killed and scattered and their nests 90 broken
up that even the enthusiastic little ant cannot
reconstruct the colony.
Another enemy of the corn that Dr. Forbes
has caught by cultivation is the bill bug. as
certain beetles are called because of their
long. hard shouts, which they poke into the
farmers business to ruin It. This time the
cultivation must be with the pillow instead of
the disk and in the autumn instead Of spring

Aids DENIES
BRIBE CHARGE
Declares Bridge Companies Accom-
plished Results Through Senator
Platt and Had No Need to
Offer Him Money
Associated Pressl

ALBANY, N. Y. March 3.-This was
distinctly Senator Aids day at the
bribery investigation. The defendant
occupied the witness stand from the
opening of the session and his direct
examination was unfinished when ad-
journment was taken.
Senator Conger and his attorneys Of
fered no interruption while the de-
fendant told q story that contradicted
at every point Conger's assertion that
Aids solicited and received $1,000 for
blocking legislation hostile to the
bridge companies.
THAT is absolutely false" declared
the senator when Conger's testimony
was repeated to him. He denied haV-
ing taken the bribe and insisted there
had been no conversation about such
a transaction.
Moreover he asserted that he had
not met his accuser's brother, Frank
Conger, the agent of the American
Bridge company, and that the first
time he saw Hiram G. Moe was when
he appeared on the stand at this trial.
Aids tried to show that there was
no necessity for the bridge interests
to give him money in 1901, because the
results they are alleged to have want
ed had already been accomplished by
orders from Thomas Platt tnen United
States senator.

WOMAN SUES BEAUTY DOCTORS;
GETS $1O5O FOR SPOILED FACE

youth could be restored to the sagging
face.
Mrs. Du Bois said she wanted sew
eral liver spots and a number of wrin-
kles removed from her face, and she
submitted to the treatment. Her de-
sire to change her appearance was
owing to a contemplated visit to her
old home. where she wanted to surprise
her girlhood friends with the beauty
acquired in California.
The effect of the treatment was all
that could be desired-at first This
was evident from a letter written by
Mrs. Du Bois to the facial landscape
artists, in which she said: 'I am just
in love with my chin. l have TO look
at ii every time l pass a mirror. 1t
balances my face beautifully"
But, she testified, the improved ap-
pearance was only transient, for within
a few weeks the filled in flesh became
hardened and Jumps formed and still
remain. She lost her eyebrows and
suffers considerable pain, she said.
The Steeles asserted Mrs. Du Bois
was responsible for her own appear
ance, that she had manipulated her
cheeks and chin after the treatment
had been administered for no other
reason than to extort money.
"It is out of the question that any
woman would deliberately disfigure
herself in this permanent way for the
chance of recovering the small amount
of damages asked in this case" said
Judge Hutton. as he gave judgment
for Mrs. Du Bois.
