at No. 602 West Ninth street. which was
unoccupied during bis absence on his va
cation, was opened yesterday and found

top to bottom. Just what have been stol-
ed cannot be told until an inventory of
the premises is taken. The home Of Frank

was entered and robbed while the family
was al Psnnsgrove, N. ]. and William

under the same conditions.
Two strange white men we're detected

MEN AND RELIGION MOVEMENT

The greatest religious movement that
has ever been presented to the church in
this country is the "Men and Religion
Movement" which is being so generally

are not doing their full duty in the com.

movement will present to the church
organization various forms Of service
such as Missions; Social Service, Bible
Study, Boys Clubs, Community Exten'
sion and will suggest ways Of carrying on
these different branches Of Christian
work.
The headquarters of the Movement
are in New York. From this point the
large cities of the country are being
organized. Baltimore has its COMMITTEES
of One Hundred which is organizing the
work in that city and throughout Mary

THE POTATO-STALK BORER

Prof. n. A. Surface, Economic
zoologist, Penna. Department Of Agricul
turs, has given bis usual active attention
to the new potato pest, worm found
in the stalks Of the potato vines. Several
in tested stalks from Southern Chester
and Lancaster counties have been sent to
Prof. Surface. The worm, which
apparently can be found in almost any
potato patch is white in color, quarter
OF an inch long, with bronze head. Prof.
Surface says farmers have justification
for their anxiety, as be counts this worm
the most serious pest Of the potato. If
farmers do not use "plain common sense
agricultural cooperation" the time is at
hand when they cannot raise wheat or
potatoes. In Bulletin No. IS, issued by
Prof, Surface, he says;
The potato stalks you sent to us con-
tain insects known as potato stalk bOrers
This pest can not be killed after il enters
the stalk. The only thing to do is to
pull and burn the diseased vines as soon
as the insects are discovered. Do not let
the vines lie around to wilt, but burn
them as soon as they have become
infested. This disposition Of the vines
may demand cooperation by other per-
sons in the neighborhood, it their
potato stalks have been attacked, but it
may be the only way to prevent ser.
ious outbreak Of the pests, and great loss
in the next year. It is comparatively
new pest, and shows that such things are
coming before US more and more, and
need our careful attention"

MoSQUIToES-TYPHoID


The prevalence Of typhoid, brings out
the question of causes. We believe with
out soliciting any expert opinion, that
the mosquito is dangerous contributary
agent in spreading the disease. Would it
not be we'll to destroy this agent by the
use Of coal oil? Coal oil should be literally
used in back yards and low places, cess
pools, and in cutters and all places where
water stands and stagnates. The expert
ment of exterminating mosquitoes by this
method would not cost much and might
be the means of putting an end to a dis
ease that is successfully treated, but
which frequently is most iusidious in its
nature. We believe it would be wise for
our citiEensfo make every precaution If
you have any low places about your yard
give it an application of coal oil. This
will kill the peaky mosquito beyone all
chance of coming to life. Next protect
your foods from flies and use every endea-
yor to create and maintain better sanitary
conditions. United efforts 10 this direc-
ton will work wonders. It will act as a
safeguard and preventive.
