CONTROL OF cORN-EAR WORM

One OF the encouraging things that
turn up occasionally in the eternal
warfare against insect pests is the fact
that some remedy or other that 10
recommended is also an ordinary fear

way with fall plowing. Several trou.
blesome insects Of field and garden
happen to be In such location in the
late fall that we can reach them by
stirring the soil. One or two OF them
can be fought In almost no other way.
The pest that hits the mark most
closely is the corn ear worm. When
infesting corn 1t eats its way along
within the husk devouring the young
and tender kernels and silk. As II
works its way down into the ground
the worm fills the hole behind 1t with
soil. But once at depth of three or
four inches it turns and makes a short
open gallery. part way to the surface.

Mr.. Gladstone's name was given to

grand old man was master of every de-
tail of the art OF packing. At coun-
try house they were discussing at
breakfast the right way to pack

been used and was constantly water

ly had been wholly absorbed in his

closed the discussion by informing the
party that they were all wrong. "The
only proper method" said he, "is to
wrap it in your bath towel and stamp

OPENS PORES OF SKIN
TRAVELLER DESCRIBES FRENCH
METHOD OF sTEAMING.
Explains Why Parislennes Need Not

Then I puzzled about the face.
Why was the only red and shiny wo-
man wherever went?
In my despair consulted beauty
specialist and told her my difficulty,
and before l went to my next first
night at the theater Ia very important
one. where all society was to gather)
she tried her arts upon me.
Her treatment was very simple.
First she steamed my face with hot
water kept about twelve inches away
from It,. The basin was placed on a
little oil buine and my head was Gov
cred with a rubber-lined blanket.
which covered the basin also, in order
that all the steam should get to my
countenance.
ut took only few moments of this
treatment to make the perspiration
pour down my brow and cheeks. My
mead was then uncovered and my face
wiped gently with very soft cloth.
Since then l have tried the same
treatment at home with a kettle on
the gas stove, and have never known
anything like 1t for removing tan and
freckles. The pores of the skin open
In the heat and the perspiration takes
away all the discoloration and impuri-
ties.
We'll, after this the French special.
list rubbed little cream, slightly per-
fumed. all over my face and massaged
1t gently, finally tanning it till the
cream was quite absorbed in the skin
cool and soft.
Then came the powdering, and this
was most interesting. l had always
slashed handful of powder on my
face and rubbed 1t in hard, and when
1t settled used some more. The French
woman, with tiny puff. sent a cloud
over my countenance But 1t was
only busting. and l waited for an
other.

CONVENIENT HOG COTS
Animal Must Have Ample Protec-
tion From Rain and Cold.
Corn and Other Feeds Make Them
Grow. But Oampness Takes on
Weight Almost as Fast AZ Put
On-House Simple Affair.

1t is great mistake and poor busi-
aess management to raise hogs. feed
hem high-priced corn and then al
low them to be in the rain and cold.
Some farmers think that because q
hog is hog 1t can get along with
any kind of shelter or with no shell
ter at all. The corn and other feeds
you give may make them grow, but
1ampness will take of weight almost
as fast as 1t Is put on. With only a
small amount of money spent for
lumber and roofing for building COM
Portable houses. sows. pigs and ma
ture hogs will bring in larger profits
in the hog business. Hogs OF all
kinds like cool shade. and cool places
for wal!owing and sleeping during the
warmer months.
The efficient hog house is a simple
affair, and can be built by anyone
with only small cash outlay. 1t
need not be more than four feet high
in the rear and slightly more In the
front to allow slope for the roof. The
sides should be short. The lumber
tor them will not cost much, but 1t
should be of good material to keep out
rains and winds. Probably the best
roof for hog houses is that of heavy
felt. This is to be laid on tight fitting
Or matched boards. Galvanized iron
also makes good roof. and is to be
commended for the movable houses.
When iron Of any kind is used for the
roof 1t should be laid on solid boards,
as iron Is very hot in summer when
the sun shines. and is cold in winter.
Since hog house need not be too
large the farmer who keeps several
sows and is growing a large number
Of pigs each year should have half
dozen or more of these houses on the
farm and in convenient places. Some
farmers have all their hog houses
near the barn and other buildings,
but do not think this is good prac-
tice. Hogs of different ages and sizes
will not do well In one herd. says
writer In an exchange. They should
be separated into small herds, accord
Ing to their ages and conditions Sows
and growing pigs should not be al
lowed to be on the same lot with fat
.tening hogs. The excessive corn diet
is not good for their growth and pro-
duction. and with large fattening hogs
the smaller ones will be crowded and
injured Too many hogs in one. pen
are more apt to contract disease than
when they are put into several lots
and smaller lunches
When the farm is divided into small
helds and each field is fenced hog
tight it will pay to have at least one
hog house in each field, SO that 1t can
be pastured with hogs at some time
zach year, thus saving and turning to
Sood account all the waste forage.

Important Question.

The old-fashioned farmer, who liked
nothing more than to dicker, bobs up
now and then rub elbows with the
moderns.
In department store recently one
of the old-fashioned kind approached
the clerk and inquired:
How much are you asking for rub
ber boots today?"
Then, when he was told the price,
he looked wise and queried:
And how much are you gettin'?"
