How toCatch Flies
by the Quart
By r. J. BALDWIN,
MiehiFan Farm SchOcl.

So much already has been said con-
cerning the filthy habits of house flies
and the danger Of their carrying dis
ease, that a suggestion on how to
keep them out Of the home may be
welcomed and made use Of. Methods
of poisoning and killing, while good
and necessary, must always be done
in the house and in this are a dis
agreeable annoyance. The trap de-
scribed in our illustration is a large
form of very old scheme which was
not success formerly because made
too small and used in the house.
The trap shown In the illustration,
is made Of common wire screen, such
as is used for doors and windows.
The top and bottom of the frame are
made from nail keg hoops and the
three uprights from lath cut In two.
A wire cone is built inside this cylin-
der and extends about half way to the
top of the trap. An opening about one
inch in diameter is cut In the apex
of the cone, and II is through this
that the flies enter the trap. This
cone should be made first and tackled
on the outside of the bottom hoop be-
fore the outer cylinder Of screen is
put on. The cut edges Of the screen
can be tackled to the lath thus making
It fly tight. The top can be closed by
tying a cloth over it which can be re-
moved when the trap is emptied.
The uprights should extend one-half

JOINS Y0GA COLONY
Educators Wife Goes to Follow
Strange God.
Purdue University Head Divorced Aft
er Indian Philosophy Is Said to
Have Taken Wife to South
Sea Islands.

Lafayette, Ind-It is the high priv.
llege of all to follow individual taste
in the matter of religious belief, but
sometimes the result is deplorable in
the extreme. Not all can think alike
as regards the here and the hereaft-
er, on this all-important matter of man
and his final destiny, but in spite OF
this diversity of opinion all good men
and women will deeply sympathize
with a family where the wife and
mother has deliberately left her home
to follow after a strange god. Such a
regrettable instance has just been
brought to light through the granting
of a divorce to President Winthrop f..
Stone, of Purdue university, who is
given the custody of minor child,
Henry Stone, on the ground of aban-
donment.
The course OF this tragedy which
has brought deep sorrow to the Stone
family is told in a pathetic story
dating back three years, when class
in "Yoga philosophy" was organized
in Lafayette. Many women and men
In college joined the class, which De-
came a fad in social circles. 1t was
taught that a complete fulfillment of
"Yoga philosophy" involved the sep
aration from family, friends and kind
red, Mrs. Stone became a devout fol-
lower of this faith and left home.
When last heard from in an authentic
way she was in Germany, but has been
reported since that she has left that
country for Kabakon, South Sea Is
land, to join colony of followers of
the new belief. In the island where
Mrs. Stone is supposed to be its mem.
bers are called sun worshipers.
This colony is one of the queerest
in the world. 1t was founded several
years ago by August Englehardt and
numbers fewer than 100 persons. They
live almost entirely on cocoanuts. The
clothing they wear is said to be of the
variety and quality affected by the

Up to She present time the pork
production of Michigan has come
largely from lard type hogs such as
the Poland China, Chester White and
Duroc Jersey. These breeds are rath-
or compact OF conformation. quick ma
turing and furnish carcasses covered
with deep layers of fat. In the past
there has been a keen demand for
4 the lard hog, but necessities and
tastes are changing. Animal fats are
being rapidly replaced by vegetable
and mineral oils for domestic pur-
poses and also those Of fabrication.
The consumer is also demanding q
leaner pork, especially bacon. 1t is
true that there is large demand for
lard and that this will still continue,
but Michigan should leave the produc-
tion Of the lard hog quite largely to
the corn belt, where 1t can be pro-
duced economically in great abund-
ance.
The state of Michigan is possessed
of conditions eminently adapted to the
production of prime bacon on account
OF the availability of dairy by-product
and the universal possibilities of pro-
ducing corn, peas, clover, alfalfa, etc.
The two breeds Of hogs most COM
monty known as bacon types are the
Yorkshires and Tamworth, Of which
the latter is the most extreme. AS
rule those accustomed to the compact
lard types do not like the appearance

aries.
Owing to the trouble with his wife
Mr.. Stone recently sent his resigna-
tion to the trustees of Purdue, but
they unanimously declined to accept
it. He has been capable head of the
university since 1900.
1t was no emotional, impulsive ac.
tion that took Mrs. Stone from her
family. Her course was deliberate,
and she followed it after long reflec-
tion and, apparently, after having
counted the full cost.
Most singular is the story of Mrs.
Stones fall under the spell of the mys-
terious Yoga cult. For years she had
been reading theosophy and kindred
subjects, and was mildly interested in
them. 1t was along about this time
that DR.. George Moulton organized in
Lafayette a class in the Yoga philoso-
ply. Many women and some men, in
West Lafayette, the college town,
JOlDGQ LDS CLASS, anu IL UtCdLt SItdt
fad with certain highly educated peo-
Pile. Moulton taught that the Yoga phil.
osophy was the religion of the Indian
Yogi, or Soothsayers.
One of the leading features Of this
doctrine was that of the withdrawal"
or separation from kindred and
friends. 1t was this feature that at
last fastened itself upon Mrs. Stone as
subsequent events showed. Meetings
of DR.. Moultons class were held in
several homes. Books on the subject
were put in the hands of Mrs. Stone
and other members Of the class, and
their interest grew.
Radical and revolutionary as were
the books of the cult, DR.. Moulton
seemed to go still beyond them, and
evolve a Yoga philosophy of his own.
But the members of the class were
warned not to make public any of the
private and secret instructions of how
to send telepathic messages, how to
hypnotic, how to use the key of Kar-
ma Yoga and how to heal the sick.
One of the injunctions in this respect
was do not become q laughing stock
for your friends by telling them what
you can do or how you do 1t"

MARcusE, CALIFORNIA,
LAND FOR PROFITABLE FARMING.

Marcuse Colony, located m Sutter
County, which is In the heart OF the
Sacramento Valley, is fast coming TO
the front as farming community in
which nearly every agricultural prod
uct known may be successfully raised
without irrigation.
The soil is a dark, sandy loan,
sedimentary In character, level and
we'll drained. II has the advantage
over other soils In that II Is loose In
character and superior to heavy soils.
With this wealth of soil, abundance
OF water, unexcelled climate and long
growing season, Marcuse Colony is
the ideal place for the homeseeker
with limited means, the worn out pro-
lessional man, or the young man look
tng for a small farm in a healthful
climate.
The proximity of Marcuse Colony to
Sacramento, furnishes a ready market
for vegetables, poultry, eggs and
dairy products. Fruits, vegetables,
alfalfa, grains and grasses and poultry
yield large returns. The rainfall is
certain and drought is unknown.
Land is yet moderately priced, but
crop failures in other sections of the
United States will bring new settlers
In rapidly. This, together with the
holding of the Panama Pacific Expo
sition in San Francisco during 1915,
Is bound to raise the price, and wheth-
er for a home, or for an investment
now Is the time to purchase. Land
may be had In tracts suitable to the
means of all and the results obtained
are almost beyond belief. Further In
formation will be gladly furnished by

that bigness of size is the desired
character, but fruit of medium size,
uniformly graded, is more to be de-
sired than large fruit mixed with
smaller specimens.
The profits from fruit also depend
a great deal upon the package. A
light. neat, uniform and attractive
package which sets off the fruit to
advantage should always be selected.
There is a great deal Of truth In the
old saying that, THE package sells
the fruit" II would pay most of the
growers OF Michigan to consider
emaller and more attractive package
for their peaches and other larger
fruits than the bushel basket, and as
rule the finer grades of fruits pay bet
ter In the smaller packages.
The manner in which the fruit is
placed in the package also is impor.
tant. The arrangement of the Call.
fornia cherries, plums, and pears In
the package as seen on the market
adds much to their attractiveness and
STABILITY. A little more thought and
care in the arrangement and facing
Of our fruit, apparently increasing the
uniformity of the package and there
fore its attractiveness. would prove
great help In increasing its salabil-
ity.
These three important considera,
tions of more rigid and careful grad.
ing, more attractive packages and the
careful arrangement of the fruit In
the packages deserve the attention Of
all our Michigan fruit growers.

inch below the lower hoop, thus hold
ing the trap up from the floor and al
lowing flies and other insects to crawl
under and reach the bait.
The trap should be set up in some
sunny place near the back door or In
the stable where flies are thick, and
baited with such material as is known
to attract flies. The trap operates
successfully when rotting fruit is
placed on the floor under 1t. because
the flies will come to 1t and later light

of the bacon types which are longer
of limb. lighter OF ham and shoulder,
less broad on the back and longer In
the nose. 1t has been universally
charged against the bacon type hogs
that more feed Is required for a given
increase In weight than with the lard
types, but of all the numerous expert
ments made by experiment stations
none affirm the general belief.
With such wonderfully well suited
natural conditions for bacon produc-
ton, Michigan should take up this
speciality and cease competing with
the western corn belt In lard produc-
ton. It may be difficult for the farm
er to turn suddenly from one extreme
type to another and for this reason
we are inclined to suggest a gradual
transition by way OF intermediate
types. BY intermediate types we mean
such as are represented by the ac-
companying illustration Of York
shire, too short of limb, compact,
heavy of ham and shoulder and thick
of back to win IN a Yorkshire ring
with a competent ! dge. The longer
and less compact types Of Berkshires
are very satisfactory. Poland China,
Duroc Jersey or Berkshire boars used
on Tamworth sows gives an excellent
intermediate type. Prolificacy, abun-
dant milk production and good mother
hood are present in high degree in the
Tamworth females, the same being
also true of Yorkshires.
