No More School sIates.

Remember the old school states, bound in red flannel to prevent the noise of slate rattling that used to be- come unbearable, until manufacturers found how to mufie them? Stores selling school supplies used to carry great stocks of them, for it was rare day in a room that did not see slate or two broken; but where are they all now2 Since the boards of health de- cided that they were insanitary and decreed against them. the whole tribe has disappeared

Cleveland. - While the workers
of the Ohio Equity association and
Burns detectives bent all energies
Thursday to get from c. G. Meekison,
auditor Of Henry county, some sort OF
a statement that would involve men
of statewide importance with alleged
unlawful acts committed in an effort
to defeat the completion of referen-

]. M. Cox at Columbus filed with Sec
retary of State C. H. Graves a formal
charge Of illegality against all ref
erendum petitions filed by the Equity
association, and asked for an immedi-
ate hearing.
BY taking that course, Gov. Cox has
made 1t certain that a full investiga-
ton of the entire referendum work
will take place without delay, that the
state will have full opportunity to
make in open contest the charges it
is prepared to enter against the al
legged illegal petitions, while the Equity
association will have to meet such
charges with direct testimony or see
it's petitions cast aside as illegal and
incomplete. Attorney General T. s.
Hogan for the state will have charge
of the investigation and hearing.

busy laying their eggs. II you
see a beetle looking like the drawing
herewith, with nearly cylindrical body
and long feelers, kill 1t, for 1t is
capable of much mischief. To pre-
vent egg-laying, clear away all weedy
growth from around the base Of apple
trees so as leave the bark freely ex-
posed to sunshine.
Other boring insects are also busy
now laying eggs for grubs that will
work havoc with fruit trees. The
peach tree borer moth is one of the
worst of these. This Is a small day
flying moth that lays its eggs about
the base Of the trees. The eggs soon
hatch into grubs that bore into root
and bark and often kill the tree. 1t
is a good plan to wrap paper around
the base of the trunks and then cover
the paper with tanglefoot. This has
a tendency to prevent the moths from
laying egss. Another way rs to Place
a lot of refuse tobacco stems around
the base of the tree. Still another is
to mound up the tree with loose soil
to height of six or eight inches, so
if any eggs are laid the grubs will
be easier to dig out.
All of these methods are to be sup
plemented in fall by careful examina'
tion and digging out of any borers
found.

CRy CLARENCE NJ. wEEpO

The Fall Webworm is the most
conspicuous orchard insect in August
and September. These insects hatch
about midsummer and begin feed
ing on the green surface Of the leaves.
AS they move about they spin f1lmy
silken web under which they always
remain. AS they grow they extend
the web, carrying 1t over all the
leaves they attack, so that the whole
branch will be webbed up by single
colony before the caterpillars mature.
There is generally, however, some
one part Of the branch where the In
sects retire between meals and dur
ing periods of moltlng. Here the
web becomes thicker and when in au-
tumn the leaves fall, taking with
them most of the gauzy web this shell
ter tent generally remains on the
leRfless branches.
The webworm shelter is very differ
ent from that made by the common
Tent Caterpillar In spring. There are
probably various reasons for this. In
the first place the } webworms are
born during the hottest season Of the
year so they do not need to huddle
together in a narrow room to keep
warm as the Tent Caterpillars do in
early spring. In the second place
1t seems probable that a caterpillar
that eats only the green surface Of
the leaves as webworms do must take
a longer time getting its meals than
= does a caterpillar that devours the
whole leaf, so the period Of exposure
to natural enemies during eating
would be greater in the case of the
webworm. And in the third place,
the webworms are developing at a
period when parasites and predaceous
insects are most abundant. The over
head web must save the lives Of
many webworms that otherwise would
be destroyed by their enemies.
But If the web protects the worms
from these insect foes 1t makes them
easy to see by the orchardist, so that
the only excuse for leaving the pests
to defoliate the tree is dire neglect.

SUITABLE BREAKFAST DISHES.

Breakfast is the troublesome meal
to prepare, as the appetite Is not at its
best and 1t Is 30 easy to fall into
rut and prepare the same things over
and over. Breakfast dishes should be
simple, wholesome, and easy of diges-
tion. The hurried breakfast is all too
common. Take time to eat a substan-
tial meal, have 1t well served and
sufficient change to avoid monotony.
Toast-As common as this dish Is it
is seldom served in perfection. The
bread should be sliced and warmed in
the oven TO dissipate the moisture
then Drowned quickly on both sides
before a good heat. Toast should be
crisp all the way through, we'll brown
ed and free from burnt corners or
moist, soggy places in the center Of
the slice. Dry toast should never be
piled but served in a rack, buttered
toast may be kept hot for a short
while over hot water.
Sausage Cakes-Take a pound of
sausage meat, add to it a tablespoon
full Of chopped parsley. little lemon
rind and grated onion, a bit of nut
meg, and cloves, make into round fiat
cakes and put into we'll creased bak-
ing tin and bake for twenty minutes.
These sausages may be served with
tomato sauce and friend potatoes or
plain without any accompaniment.
An omelet is always a good break
fast dish and one may vary them in
definitely with the accompanying
sauce or with different seasonings.
Eggs and Mushrooms Cook as
many eggs In the shell as there are
persons to serve, remove the shells
when cold and chop fine. Cook in a
small amount Of butter a few mush-
rooms, add to the chopped egg and
turn them all into rich white sauce
made with the top Of the milk, a cup
and two tablespoonfuls each of -four
and butter cooked together. Serve hot
on crisp slices Of buttered toast
Bacon should be sliced thin, be thor.
oughly chilled and be fried crisp and
dry, tipping the frying pan to drain
the bacon before serving. Bacon Is
one OF our more easily digested fats
and should be often on our breakfast
tables.
