THE cossoN LAWS WILL ENDURE.

The Cosson law affecting red light
districts and brothels is to be tried out
as to its constitutionality in case
brought to enjoin Dies Motnes woman
from operating All allegedly disorderiy
house. The attorneys for the woman
attack the conEtitutionaltry Of the law
on the grounds that Feeley, who was
unfortunately speaker Of the house
when the bill passed. neglected to sign
it, that 1t does not provide trial by
jury and that 1t deprives of liberty
and property without due process Of
law.
1t is well enough to bring this mat
ter to show down. If the Cosson
laws, any of them are unconstitutional.
the state desires to know 1t in order
that it can re-enact them and put them
beyond the reach Of such attacks. The
Cosson laws have had more TO do with
cleaning UP the plague spots in the
state than any others ever enacted.
They will not be dropped should they
be successfully assailed in this in
stance, but their defects reDedied and
their good results continued.
To the laymen the probabilities
seem to be that the law will be
sustained. But nobody-not even
the lawyers-knows what will happen
But whatever may be the outcome
the Cosson laws will be enacted and
re-enacted until they are secure.
They speak the spirit and desire of
decent Iowa.
Disrepute has no vested right to con-
tinue in the face of decency. Laws are
not made to support but to limit vice.
When they work as the Cosson stat
utes have done in such successful lin
itation of viciousness generally they
will live despite the attacks OF the ad-
vocates Of disrepute.

IN TnRESHING TIME.

It was a good cartoon. 1t repre-
scented in parallel pictures the office
man and the thresher at lunch time.
Every office man knows how the office
man looked in the picture. Every one
who has ever threshed knows how the
boys acted when the dinner call came.
And this cartoon Of Mr.. Darling's was
evidence that he had undergone per-
sonal experience under both conditions.
Threshing FIVE hours whatever duty
it involves, whether pitching in the
field. hauling away, measuring or on
the strawpile never fails to provoke
appetite. Perhaps provoke Is a word
too mild. Enrage Would be better and
nearer fact
Threshing has changed. like every
thing else. It's easier than it used to
be when you and carried two bushel
sacks Of wheat away from the machine
and up a ladder into overhead bins.
Nowadays an elevator does all the
hosting. In those old days one man
and he needed to be good one.
''measura1." In the early time he used
half bushels from which he poured the
grain into the sacks held by boy of
dozen years. He had to hump him
self literally as figuratively. The dust
blew out from the fans into his face as
he stopped to the spout which in those
prehistoric times vented just in front
e4 the hind wheel Of the separator.
Then somebody backed up a wagon
with top box, put couple Of bushel
heekets In place of the half bushels
ana measuring took on comparative
/ ease. The "haulers" scooped it out in
to the bins and they liked that better.

department urges growers Of potatoes
to Cooperate In this gensSSl work and
thus lessen Importantly the numbers
Of the moths and reduce their chances
for propagation. It is believed that IL

pest. Any slipshod method OF raising
potatoes at this present time Is re-
garded Ns particularly dangerous be-
cause Of this moth, and the specialists
urge growers in infested districts to
choose some other crop rather than to
raise potatoes in a careless manner.
Unless protective and defensive meas
ures are adopted at once there will be
a serious reduction of the potato crop

WARNING AGAINST 7usER MOTH
Y. s, Department Of Agriculture Issues
Important Instructions.

Important In8tTuSttonSs
The potato tuber moth is working
such injury to potato crops IN various
parts of the country, especially In Cai-
fornia and Texas, that the bureau OF
entomology of the United States de-
partment of agriculture has issued a
special warning and instructions 10
potato growers to help them overcome
this highly injurious pest ACCORDING
to the specialists this moth Is oelns
rapidly spread over the country IN SNIP
ments of infested potatoes and by care
less methods of using and distributing
seed potatoes. The warning is issued
at this time in order to enable farmers
to take special action with the SEED
they will use for the fall crop.
The department particularly urges
notato growers to sort the potatoes for
seed two weeks after digging and then
RI sort them over two weeks later. The
tubers unaffected by the tuber moth
! should ne placed in moth PROOF nm.
It is easy to pick out the infested tubers
because OF the excrement of the moth,
which adheres by means Of web to the
outside of the potatoes and can be
easily detected.
The tubers placed in the moth proof
bin. after final sorting, should then be
| fumigated by means OF carbon bisul-
phid. Cor bisulphid Of carbon as 1t Is
also known), in order to kill any moths
which might have bred out or have
slipped in thru crevices, and when the
bin was opened. Carbon bisulphid is
applied by pouring small quantities
into fat vessels such as milk pans or
pie tins. An average Of three pounds
should be used In 1000 cubic feet of
snace. It is more effective at high
temperatures. 80 degrees to 80 degrees
Fahrenheit being best. About pint rs
is poured into each receptacle and the
pans are placed in the bins at the top.
The gas being heavier than air natur-
ally penetrates the mass OF potatoes,
reaching those at the bottom The Din
should be tightly closed for from "a
to Sc hours with good assurance that
the terminating power of the seed is
not destroyed. The utmost care should
be taken that no fire, such as that from
a cigar electric fan, stove, or even a
gas light or lamp should be brought
into the vicinity Otherwise as the gas
is very infiammable fire may result
or q serious explosion may follow.
/ Ali potato growers should keep a
careful lookout" after fumigation. Al
first the fumigated seed potatoes should
be inspected daily to detect any growth
Of the insect; later, observation every
other day and finally once weef
should be sufficient. II there IL any
indication that the tuber moth Is propa-

the cab door was hung open in front
Of the handsome house where he was
to be guest. two men passed slowly
by. like shadows out Of place, and
there hoated in his ears one sentence
voiced In broadest Irish: she goes

Tryon Durham turned and caught
. glimpse Of silver changing hands.
One man was slight and fashionably
dressed, and the light that was cast
from the neighboring window showed
his face to be dark and handsome.
The other was. short and stout. and
clad In q faded Prince Albert coat that
bagged at shoulders and elbows. He
wore rubbers over his shoes, and his
footsteps sounded like those Of 4
heavy dog. The two passed around
the corner, and Durham and his host
entered the house.
They were presently seated at q
we'll appointed table. whore an elab.
crate dinner was served. The talk
was Of pleasant things that 20 to
make up the world OF refinement: but
the mind Of the guest was troubled.
and constantly kept hearing that SEN
tence. "She goes by the name Of
Mary"
Then. suddenly. he looked up aud
met her eyes!
She was standing just back Of her
mistress's chair, with quiet watchful
attitude. but her eyes had been un.
consciously upon the guest, until he
he looked up and caught her glance.
She turned away. but the color rose
IN her cheeks. and she knew that he
was watching her.
Her look had startled him. He had
never thought Of looking for her in .
mental position. and at drst he had
noticed only the likeness to her for
whom he was searching. But he watch.
ed her furtively, until he became more
and more startled with the resem
blance. At last he broke in upon the
conversation:
Excuse me, but wonder II l may
interrupt you for q moment I have
thought Of something that I ought to
attend to at once. wonder II the
waitress would be kind enough to
send phone message for me. am
afraid it will be. too late II I wait"
Why. certainly" said tho host, all
anxiety. Would you Hike to 70 to the
phone yourself. or can I attend to
it for you? Just feel perfectly at
home" 80
Already the young man was hastily
writing line or two on . card he had
taken from his pocket. aud he handed
1t to the waitress. who at his question
had moved silently behind his chair ia
do his bidding
Just call UP that number, please
and give the message below. They
Will understand. and then you will
write down their answer"
He handed her the pencil and turn
ed again to his dessert. Apparently
his entire attention was devoted to hia
host and his Ice. but insreality he wa
listening to the click of the telephone
and the low, gentle voice in an adjoin
ing room. It came after only q mo
ments pause, and he wondered at the
calmness with which the usual for
mula of the telephone was carried on
He could not hear what she said, blu,
his ears were alert to the pause, Just
long enough for . few words to be
written. and then to her footsteps
