The Green Bug on the Job.

The green bug has arrived. Adyices
received by Dr. T. ]. Headlee, state
entomologist and head of the bureau
of entomology of the Kansas State
Agricultural college, show that the
first enemy of the wheat has appeared
in northeastern Oklahoma and south
eastern Kansas. This bug attacks
wheat and oats at this time of the
year. The message adds that both
parasitis and predaceous foes are ev-
erywhere present in the Oklahoma in
festation, which means that little
damage is expected. Warm weather,
Doctor Headlee says, would save the
situation High temperatures would
retard the activities of the green bug
and promote the energies of the par
asite which feeds upon the green bug.
The bureau of entomology is inyesti-
eating the Kansas situation. Doctor
Headlee believes the damage this
year from the green bug will be re-
stricted to certain localities and
small spots.

Latest Kansas Events.
An Expensive Lawsuit.

That going to law is often costly
game is evidenced in case that has
just been decided at Belleville. Frank
Rost and Frank Konovalsli neighbors
living in Freedom township, some
time last fall made shipment of
hogs to Kansas City. A controversy
arose over the shipment concerning
the shrinkage of the stock when it
reached that place. Rost claimed that
Konovalski owed him something like
1925, but the latter refused to pay,
contending that both having consent
ed to the shipment, both should stand
an equal amount of the shrinkage, in
proportion to the number of hogs
shipped by each. The case was tried
in the justice court and was later ap-
pealed to the district court. The
costs, including attorneys, witnesses
and other fees, amount to nearly s1O0
all told.

HOME
NURSING
BED MAKING.

One of the most essential items in
the care of a patient is proper prep
aration and care of the bed. One of
the first requirements of a good nurse
Is her ability in this line, and yet how
seldom do we find anyone except a
trained nurse who understands this
matter SO essential to the patients
comfort?
First, the mattress must be protect
ed, both for the sake of cleanliness
and for economy. Unless the patient
has involuntary urinations or bowel
movements, a soft pad will be suf-
6cient- Over this the lower sheet
should be drawn smoothly and pinned
to the under side of the mattress at
the corners. The upper sheet and
blanket come next. These should be
well tucked in at the foot of the bed,
but not SO tightly as to be uncom-
Portable for the patient The upper
edge of the blanket must be protected
by turning the end of the sheet back
over it. A patient often is uncomfort-
able with the usual heavy white coun-
terpane over him, although he may
fail to find the source of his discom-
fort. Counterpanes interfere with the
circulation of the air and although
they add to the looks of bed, the pa
tents comfort must be the first con
sideration- A light weight, loosely
woven spread may be used.
When the patient is very i'll, or If
the nature of the illness is such that
the lower sheet becomes soiled, a
draw sheet should be used. After the
lower sheet has been fastened in
place, a sheet of rubber cloth, about
a yard square, is placed across the
middle of the bed. allowing the upper
edge to meet the pillow. This is
pinned in place by one safety pin al
each corner. Over this Is placed q
sheet that has been folded crosswise
The hens should come at the bottom
so as not to form a ridge under the
patients back. The sheet should be
securely tucked in at the sides.
The changing of the linen should be
managed with as little fatigue and dis
comfort to the patient as possible
This can be done easily by one per
son, unless the patient is very i'll OIL
| helpless. Only the upper sheet OIL
blanket is left over the patient; the
lower sheet is then loosened at top
bottom and sides; one side is theI
folded along its entire length, length
wise as fatty as possible close up tt
the patient The fresh sheet should
then be folded lengthwise, alternately
backward and forward for half it,
width, and placed on the side of the
bed from which the soiled one has
been removed. The nurse then goes
to the other side of the bed, turns the
| patient carefully on his side facing
| the nurse. She then tucks the folded
sheets close up to him, smoothing the
| clean sheet carefully. She then turn:
| the patient over onto his other side

EmbezzIed Seed Wheat.

Henry Kohn and Fred Franska, two
farm hands, living in Mcpherson
county, are awaiting trial at the June
term of court under a very peculiar
charge. These men were employed
by farmer by the name of Schrag
to sow wheat last fall He purchased
more than $500 worth of seed and
turned it over to Kohn and Franska to
be drilled in his wheat land. The
plant never grew, and an investiga-
ton developed the fact that empty
drills were run over the ground, and
that the men employed to do the work
had sold the seed and disappeared.
Kohn was later arrested near the
Alta mill, and Franska was captured
near Hillsboro.

Crouch Still With Him.

When Brown died he left an old

who always had crouch. After
Brown had been in heaven some
time, he met Jones just coming
through the gate, and as the new
conner did not look as happy and con-
tented as he should, Brown asked him
what was the matter. WELL" Jones

the river Styx and caught a nasty
cold, broke my left wing and have to

In so doing he passes the folded
sheets, so that they are now at his
back and he is lying on the clean
sheet The soiled sheet can now be
removed and the other half of the
clean one smoothed out and the sides
and ends tucked in. The upper sheet
and blanket are then replaced as be-
fore In changing the upper sheet
the clean one is spread over the top
of the bed and held in place while the
soiled sheet and other clothing are re-
moved. In this way we avoid expo
sing and chilling the patient
When the patient cannot be turned
on his side the sheet must be change
from top to bottom. The soiled sheet
being loosened at the top and pushed
well down under the pillow, the clean
sheet is then started at the top and
pushed down under the pillow also. In
changing the sheet in this manner
two persons are required one stand
ing at each side of the bed and work
ing the sheets down slowly and care
fully.
In making a bed care must be taken
that a seam of the sheet does not
come under the patients back. Sew
eral times day the under sheet must
bed linen should be thoroughly
warmed and aired before commencing
the making of the bed, and everything
should be placed in a convenient
place SO there will be no delay during
the process.
In special cases it is necessary to
vary, slightly, the manner of making
the bed. In some operative cases the
bed must be arranged so one portion
can be changed without disturbing the
remainder. In confinement cases the
bed should be made up with a draw
sheet and then second rubber sheet
and draw sheet, should be placed over
the first one. By this arrangement
the second one can be withdrawn
protected with the draw sheet. II

ITCHED so COULD NOT SLEEP

81 suffered from the early part of
December until nearly the beginning
of March with severe skin eruptions
on my face and scalp. At first
treated it as a trivial matter. But
after having used CASTLE soap, medi-
Gated washrags. cold cream, vanish
ing cream, etc., found no relief what
ever. After that I diagnosed my case
as eczema, because of its dry, scaly
appearance. The itching and burning
of my scalp became so intense that
thought I should go mad, having not
slept regularly for months past, only
at intervals, waking up now and then
because of the burning and itching of
my skin. Having read different tes-
timonials of cures by the Cuticura
Remedies, I decided to purchase box
of Cuticura Ointment and a cake of
Cuticura Soap. After using them for
a few days I recognized a marked
change in my condition. I bought
about two boxes of >Cuticura Ointment
and five cakes of Cuticura Soap in all,
and after a few days I was entirely
free from the itching and burning
My eczema was entirely cured, all
due to using Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment daily. Hereafter I will never
be without a cake of Cuticura Soap on
my washstand. I highly recommend
the Cuticura Remedies to anyone suf-
fering from similar skin eruptions and
hope you will publish my letter so
that others may learn of Cuticura
Remedies and be cured" (Signed)
