Differences of Long Standing.

Scott and Hubbard have not hit it in
politics from the beginning of their po-
litical careers. Scotts friends say Hub
bard has always been jealous and pur-
sued a policy of deprecatory criticism
On the other hand Scott has been con-
tent to let Hubbard, go so long as he did
not threaten to interfere with his ambi-
tons. but where they seemed to be a
clash he did not sidestep a passage at
arms. With both men of determined
character. they have been only nominal
ly friends for years, and a battle pc
tween them now for the senatorial toga
will be fierce, with no quarter asked.
Scott, who is in Wheeling. and, per-
haps, may leave for Washington on the
same train with Hubbard, is naturally
FESTIVE wnen he has a fight in prospect.
He is easily worried by opposition at
times, but he seems chock full of conf
dence in his ability to succeed himself
and he does not fear the brush with Hub
bard. although he would have preferred
smooth sailing. Among the senator's fol-
lowers the opinion is general that eX-Gov
Dawson is Hubbard's chief hacker.

INSECTS DETRIMENT TO
NATURAL FOREST GROWTH
Damage Done Causing Failure Many Nuts
Makes the Group n Important One From
Economic Standpoint.

CBy FRED S. BROOKS. Associate Ento-
fnologist. West Virginia University Ag-
rlcultural Experiment Station)
The forests of West Virginia are
rich in native nut-bearing trees and
shrubs. At least twenty-seven species
are found that bear nuts which are
used as food by man or by the animals
that are OF value to man. The nut
bearing trees furnish also the bulk
of hardwood timber that is produced
in the state.
With the probable exception of the
beechnut, all the more common varie-
ties of nuts. and. presumably, those
that are less common as well, are at
tackled by the larvae, or grubs, of over
dozen different species of snout
beetles. Some of these larvae feed
on the husks and inner tissues of inn
mature nuts and others on the kerr
nels of nuts that are more nearly
ripe. Young walnuts and hickorynuts
are frequently attacked soon after the
blossoms fall from the trees and the
infested nuts drop to the ground be-
fore they are half grown. Chestnuts,
ecorns and some other varieties sus-
tain the greatest injury as they ap-
proach maturity. 1t is not unusual
for chestnuts that are kept week or
two after gathering to become from so
per cent. to 70 per cent. "wormy" and
acorns often suffer to even greater
extent. The infested nuts are rem
dered unfit for food and in many cases
are so badly eaten that they will not
terminate when planted.

When prominent men realize the In
furious effects of coffee and the change
in health that Postum can bring, they
are glad to lend their testimony for
the benefit Of others.
A superintendent of public schools
in q Southern state says: My moth

inveterate coffee drinker, had been
troubled with her heart for number
of years and complained of that weak

Some time ago l was making an Of

country and took dinner with one of
the merchants of the place. l noticed
a somewhat peculiar flavor of the cof-
fee, and asked him concerning 1t. He
replied that it was Postum. l was so
pleased with 1t that, after the meal was
over, l bought a package to carry
home with me, and had wife pre-
pare some for the next meal; the

Postum for a short time. she felt so
much better than she did prior to It's
use, and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches we're not so frequent, and
her general condition much improved.
This continued until she was as well
and hearty as the rest OF us. :.

of some of the nut weevils II is longer

which is armed with a minute but
strong pair of jaws, is situated on the
apex OF the snout and the appendage
is used for piercing or puncturing vari-
Gus kinds of plant tissue to obtain
food and TO provide an opening in
which to deposit eggs.
Chestnuts are frequently gathered
that appear sound at first, but within
ten days or two weeks thereafter be-
come excessively "wormy." Where
these worms" come from has often
been a matter of conjecture on the
part OF those who handle nuts. 1t is
common belief that they originate
from the sting of some insect ad-
ministered at the time the trees are
In bloom. AS a matter of fact, they
hatch from eggs that are in the nuts
at the time the nuts are gathered
Most of these eggs are deposited by
this chestnut weevil short time pre-
vious to the dropping of the nuts
from the trees.
The common acorn weevil is the
largest of the weevils attacking
acorns. In size it is similar to the
hickorynut weevil but in color it more
nearly resembles the larger chestnut
weevil. The spots on the back are
smaller than in the latter species,
however and are not so bright and
conspicuous. The snout is very slen-
der and is curved at the point. In

in length, or, about a fifth longer than
the body. In the male, 1t is two-thirds
as long as the body. The pygidium.
or last abdominal segment, of the male
is deeply concave with the concavity
smooth and shining and surrounded by
a rim OF silken hairs. This peculiar
character enables the species to be
separated very readily from all other
members of the genus.
This species seems to attack only
the acorns of the biennial oaks and
in my collecting has always been
found more abundant on red oak than
on any other tree. The acorns which
it attacks are late in maturing and
the beetles are correspondingly late In
appearing.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local application, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear, There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustacbian Tube. When this tube is iuflammed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces
