HOW TO KILL CATERPILlARS.

Diet For the Pests

Diet For the Pests.
1t begins to look as if the destructive
brown tail and gypsy moths and the
pestiferous caterpillar have been con-
quered at last. A simple diet of let
tuee leaves, it has been found. is the
easiest and best way to get rid of
them. All that you have to do if the
caterpillars are spelling your shrubs
and trees Is to catch one or two of
them and feed them on some lettuce
that has been soaking in water four
days. After they have eaten all they
care to, turn the caterpillars loose
again. They will do the rest.
The explanation is simple. 1t has
been discovered that watered lettuce
leaves give caterpillars the cholera.
One caterpillar so infected quickly
spreads the disease among it's fellows
In Massachusetts, the epidemic is
spreading among caterpillars. brown
tails and gypsies, much to the delight
Of the state entomologists, who almost
despaired Of ever getting rid of the
pests.

A GENTLEMAN'S GAME.

And the University of Missouri
played the University of Kansas a
great game of football Saturday.
Not the players representing the
two universities so much-their work
is taken for granted but the stu
dents in the bleachers Never in the
last four years at least has there
been SO wholesome a spirit shown on
both Sides
The rivalry of course was intense.
The Tiger supporters fiattered them
selves that both in numbers and in
lungpower they held their own with
their hosts, the Jayhawks. But
throughout the game the bleachers
treated each other with courtesy. 1t
was one thing to cheer for Washing
ton. a team that the Tigers were run
ming over, and quite another to cheer
for the Kansans, who were holding
the big end of the score
The game itself was as clean a
game as one could hope for. Penal
ties were infrequent. The penalties
that were called were chiefly for off
side play, with one or two cases of
holding-both of them offenses due to
over-eagerness and a head excited by
the fierceness of the play. DIRTY
work" was not to be seen.
Games such as this one are what
keep the game in good repute despite
the bitter attacks made upon it.
Football as a gentleman's game is too
valuable to lose.

GOIyG.THE.OLD.TIME WOMAN.


Farmers wives and daughters are
too proud to do household work now
adays, is a statement contained in
report just issued by George n.
Holmes. chief of the division of pro-
duction and distribution of the Uni
ted States Department of Agricul-
ture. The "lure of society" which
has reached the farm is much to
blame for the condition, continues
the report. 1t is a rare thing to see
n young woman who knows how to
knit. In time past the pride of the
housewife was great stores of pre-
serves dried and picked fruit and
vegetables and berries. But now the
local store is depended upon for all
these eatables. The farm women OF
today are not willing to repeat the
manual labor performed by their
grandmothers. Country girls, too, as
well as city girls, regard household
work for hire as undesirable. The
rise in the price of living on the farm
is accounted for, in a measure, by the
fact that the women of the farm are
indulging in social functions" which

"The other night as our local re-
porter was going to his 'roost' at a
late hour, he heard in the distance
sweet strains of music, or, at least,
what he first supposed to be music,
but which proved to be principally
strains" and other dismal sounds
that seemed to come from a bosom
racked with anguish or a stomach
overloaded with raw oysters and
chicken salad. Softly our reporter
drew near, and at last discovered from
whence the sounds proceeded. A
youth stood leaning against a gate
post, with his eyes fixed upon a cham
Der window in the second story of the
house before him. In his hand he
held guitar, upon which he picked
with the air of one who is not GER
tain he is on the right string, while
from his parted lips came the follow
ing son:

and initiate his lungs, and then struck
into the chorus):

THE singer here took a rest of q,

Here the front door was suddenly
opened, and a sepulchral voice said,

dog about the size of flour barrel.

PHYSICAL TRAINING FOR ALL.

Glasses in physical training have
been organized for the faculty, the
short-course students, the Sunday
school children. The School Exten-
sion Society will give the same priv
ilege to the public. In other words,
physical training soon will be provid-
ed for all.
The object of physical training is
better health, Of course. The demand
for it is the result of the widespread
movement for the conservation of
health. and for the use Of preventives
rather than curatives.
Gradually the public is coming to
see that prevention is better than
cure The way to stay well is to
keep up a strong resistance against
disease. Disease gets hold when the
individual is weak and unable to re-
sist. Physical training is to build and
to keep this resistance.
AS the conservation of health is
the most vital thing to every person,
it is no wonder that physical training
is becoming popular. AS soon as the
public sees the full value of it, vital
statistics will show a great change.
