The Noise OF SiIkworms.

A naked man is always In attend

worms OF China. The worms. being
so very frail that the temperature ana

the sensitiveness OF his skin.
After the worms are hatched no lond
talking is permitted near them, ana
there are even guards whose duty 1t Is
to keep the flies of them. These
guards must battle before entering the
worms presence, and their breath
must be sweet and inotfensive. On

Such precautions seem absurd. YET

How to Have the Best Cough
Syrup and Save 81, by
Making 1t Mt Home.

Cough medicines, as u rule, contain q
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of granulated sugar, add
u pint of warm water and stir about
2 minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buy.
If you will then put 2b ounces Of
Pinex $50 cents WORTH in pint bottle,
and fill it up with the Sugar Syrup, you
will have as much cough syrup as you
could buy ready made for $3.50. 1t
keeps perfectly.
And you will find it the best cough
syrup you ever used-even in whooping
cough. You can feel it take hold-lsu.
ally stops the most severe cough in "a
hours. 1t is just laxative enough, has O
good tonic effect, and taste is pleasant.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
1t is splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, Group, hoarseness, asth-
ma, chest pains, etc.
Pinex Is the most valuable concentra-
ted compound Of Norway white pine ex-
tract, rich in guaiacol and all the heal
ing pine elements. No other prepara-
tion will work in this formula.
This recipe for making cough remedy
with PineX and Sugar Syrup is now
used and priced in thousands Of homes
in the United States and Canada. The
plan has often been initiated but never
successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
get it for you. If not, send to The
Pinex Co., TT. Wayne, Ind.

SEEKING THE CAUSE OF
ORCHARD TREE DISEASES

AS result of more than a years
experiment in the Prinz prune orchard
Harry H. Rees, of the state expert
ment station at Corvallis Is convinced
that the tree disease known as sun
scald or winter scald is not caused by
the sun shining on the trees through
the day and the GOODNESS Of the night
following. The cause is yet TO be de-
termined.
Mr.. Rees arrived at this conclusion
by system of shading the trees all
last year He says that the blight on
the trees that were shaded and those
that were not is about equal. 1t is
slight in both cases. He is continuing
his experiments in this orchard at
present The series Of experiments is
TO last FIVE years.
Mr.. Rees is conducting a three-year
experiment in the peach orchard ol
ex-Mayor Lachmund with view tc
mastering peach blight In the spring
It Is his intention to begin a third ex.
pertinent If an infected orchard car
be found, for a study into the causes
Of peach leaf curl. Mr. Rees says thai
in each orchard there is a period Of {
few days when spraying for this dis
ease must be done. II cannot be done
before the bud, nor after the bud hai
sprung open and allowed the leaf h
appear In the one case the spra.
will not affect the curl In the othe
H. will ruin the leaves. The prope
period Is between these two condition
Of the bud and can be ascertained onl
by close study Of the buds.

SALEM HIGH TO PLAY
NEWBERG SATURDAY

The Salem high basket ball tossers |
have been training every night since |
the hard game with the fast aggrega-
tion from Dallas, in which they won
by big margin, and are now in bet
ter shape than at any time this season.
Next Saturday the team will go to
Newberg where it will run up against
one of the fastest little teams in the
state, and as the Newberg team will
be on its own floor it is expecting to
take the Salem lads into camp. But
Coach Bonnel and Captain Springer,
although they are looking for hard
game, think that the high school will
win as every member of the team is in
perfect condition. Spalding, who will
play at center is one of the best CEN
ters to be had, and will make any
amount of trouble for his Newberg
opponent. Utter, one of the smallest
and fastest basketball men In the
state, will play one forward, while
Proctor will play the other. Proctor
is dead shot and can be relied on at
, all times to roll up the score If given
, a chance, while Utter is equally as
, good.

effect more systematic rule of book
keeping, but reduce materially the
cost of keeping the county records.
While not attempting to criticise the
manner in which the county records
have been kept heretofore, County
Clerk Gehhar declares he can install
another system which will contain less
red tape and be Of less expense to the
taxpayers in the long run. Just what
this new system Is, he is not as yet
willing to divulge, but in view Of the
fact that he has been connected with
the workings of county and state af-
fairs for several years, a commenda-
Bile change is looked for In the near
future in the conduct of the county
clerks department.
A Queer Obligation.
Another Office which Is an important
enc, but easily conducted when the in
cumbent is capable, is the county
tyeasurer's department
The peculiar phase Of this official
position is that the present incumbent
Joe Moore, is required by statute to
furnish q bond in the sum of 100000
While the Marion county treasurer
handles a million dollars each year
and his bonds soar far higher than
the bonds required by any other coun-
ty officer in the state, the MultnOmah
county treasurer is required to fur
nish bonds only in the sum Of $4,000
while at the same time that Officer
handles in the neighborhood Of sly
million dollars a year, or many times
more than the amount handled in thi
county.

HOW TO DESTROY

In answer to call published in the

zeal garden. received interesting sug-
gestions relative to the determination
Of white grubs that have killed many
Of the lawns III New York and vicinity
by cutting the roots Of the grass be-
meath the sod.
1t Is thought the worm may be crush
ed by watering the lawns and rolling
them with heavy horse roller. Poi
son is said to be effective. but for i'm.
mediate effects on badly injured lawns
1t is probably best in the fall to pillow
and SOW at once the infested areas with
three quarts of white clover seed to the
acre. DR.. Murrill is informed that the
mature beetles. usually called May bee.
ties or June bugs. may be captured
when they emerge from the ground in
the late spring or early summer. at the
end Of the third year Of their develop
ment. by placing tubs Of water con
tanning little kerosene at various
points on the lawn with lanterns sus-
pended above them. The insects are
attracted in swarms by the lights and
finally fall into the tubs, where they
are killed by the kerosene. One ad
vantage Of this method lies in the fact
that a lawn may be protected no mat.

abundant they may be.

Treatment For Rinqbone.

In many cases treatment for ring
bone starting on hind pastern of
colts leg is not necessary. II lame
ness is absent it is usual to leave such
cases to mature. says A. S. Alexander
in the Farm and Fireside Sometimes
the bunch" is reabsorbed. More COM
monty 1t goes on growing. and lame
ness comes on when the horse Is work
ed hard on hard roads or even without
the hard road influence. If you pre-
fer to try inducing reabsorption Of the
growth (exostOsis) clip off the hair and
blister at least once month by rub
bling in a little of a mixture of one
dram of biniodide of mercury and two
ounces of cerate of cantharides. The
cerate keeps indefinitely. but the
iodide of mercury should be rubbed up
with the cerate just before use. Rub
the blister in for fifteen minutes. Tie
the colt up short so that he cannot lie
down or bite the blistered part. Rub
lard on the part in three days and
then apply little lard once a day.
For a ringbone that causes lameness
it is best to have the part puncture
fired and blistered by veterinarian
and then give six weeks of rest in the
stall. The results will pay for the ex
penSe.
