DIG oRuss FROM MAPLE.
Tree Doctors Find Colony OF Wn'se
CRUDE In Dscaysd Cavity.


CRUDE in Dscaysd Cavity.
Some people question whether the
digging Of decayed wood from cavities
in the trees OF the court house square,
cleansing the sore spot, and hlling H.
does any good. A detail Of the
work being done in the square now
shows that such work helps to pre-
serve the trees and prolong their
lives.
While excavating the decayed WOOD
from a small cavity Of a soft maple
tree near the southwest corner of the
square. the workman found colony or
white grubs. They We're growing to
maturity in the tree, and were getting
their food by living on the tissue of the
trunk. When the workman had cleaned
out the cavity he had dug out and de-
stroyed dozen Of the grubs. The ground
under the tree is still covered with
their dead bodies.
The white grub is the child of the
beetle. commonly known as the June
bug. Biologists say that it takes three
years from the time the June bug de-
posts the egg until the mature beetle
energies from the ground. In the mean
time it passes thru various stages of
growth. its last being the form of the
white grub.
From the time the egg is
Matched until the June bug emerges
and takes to wing, the larvae and grub
live on whatever the egg has been laid
in. Ordinarily the egg is deposited in
the soil, and the grub. being a vora-
cious feeder, gnaws all plant roots that
il can reach. 1t is particularly de-
structive to strawberries, potatoes,
lawns and asters and similar flowers.
No practical and effective remedy is
known to rid the soil Of the grub until
after he has done his destructive work.
Those that were in the maple tree were
extending the size OF the cavity by
feeding on the tree.

CREDITOR TOOK HIS LEAVE
Journalist May or May Not Have
Meant Threat, but Visitor Would

Lespes, the French Journalist,
known as "Timothee Trimm," was
once disagreeably intruded on by a
creditor, who announced his intention
Of not departing until he was paid.
The creditor planted himself on a
chair, and Lespes beheld him. with
CONSERVATION, draw bread and cheese
from his pockets as though to fortify
himself against events. Several
hours glided by; Lespes had re.
sumed his writing and finished an
article. The creditor showed no
signs Of moving. Suddenly Lespes
rose, and with bits Of newspaper be.
gan carefully blocking all the
apertures through which air could
come into the room. He then made
preparations for lighting a charcoal
fire; but before applying the match
pasted on the wall, just opposite the
creditors eyes, a paper thus lac0n-
ically worded: Take notice that we

'Halloa!" said Mrs. Brown. "Is that

Yes"

steak by four o'clock"
The boy in the butcher shop hap

promptly responded:

Wisdom Of Bank of EnuIand.

Here's an item about the Bank of
England: The Bank Of England has
decided that certain tasks shall not
be done on dark days. (The skeptical
may say that those tasks then are
not likely to get dene in London, but
no matter!) It has been discovered
that the clerks are not so accurate
when it rains as when the sun shines
Their accounts suffer in the fog. And
the Bank of England-the last place
on the earth where we'd expect to find
a matter of this sort considered,
matter of a somewhat psychic nature
the Bank Of England tells its yari-
Gus young men to wait until a sunny
day to do the tasks that are most diff
f1cult. The world is getting wiser.

PUDDING BELL STILL RUNG
Church In the County PaIstlne Gives
Warning It Is Time to Begin
Frying Pancakes.

Concerning church bells Mr.. Frank
hrd tells of the quaint customs which
are still observed in some of the par
ishes in the County Palatine.
Before the Reformation the great
pen OF the parish was rYng on Shrove
tuesday to call the people together
Ior the confession of their sins, or to
DE 'shriVen;" hence the name of the
DAY. This bell" says Mr.. Hird, lis
still rung in some parts Of Lancashire,
and is still called the Pancake Bell,
being now regarded only as a signal
70 the people to begin frying their
pancakes.
In some villages a bell is rung as
tne congregation is leaving the church
after the morning service. This is
known as the Pudding Bell, 1t hav-
Ing been firmly believed for many gen.
erations that it is rung to warn those
ut home to get the dinner ready.
The origin Of the ringing Of this
bell Is not known, but like many 9th
er old customs, 1t stiIl fingers in the
remoter parts Of the country, an
.nouncing to the village that the serv-
Ice is over and that pudding time
has come
$50 late as 1870 the curfew bell
was rung at Burnley, Colne, Black
burn, Padham, and in many other
towns and villages. This, perhaps is
the most remarkable instance of the
persistence Of an old custom centuries
after 1t has ceased to have any rea-
son."

Courage.

The swapping turtle, according to
Emerson, will seize a stick and hold
It if his head is cut off; break the
eggs of the young and before his eyes
are open he will bite fiercely; so he
will bite before he is born and after
he is dead; and similar courage the
philosopher observes in wasps, ants
and cocks. A step higher is the cour-
age of the tlInid hen ruffng her feath-
ers and attacking a dog in protection
Of her young. When animal and
moral courage combine in a great
need, as at Thermopylae, or on the
Titanic, they inspire us always. What
we need oftenest, however, Is the cour-
age to meet the requirements of every
day; to defy convention, or to obey it;
to think alone, or to submit; to be
willingly poor; to discuss science and
poetry and mans welfare in frivol-
Gus and luxury-loHing company.-Col-

MoVind Ones Home,

When a small settler in western
Canada decides TO move, he very often
takes his shack" with him; you can.
not rely upon finding houses just
where you want them in a new coun.
try, and the cost of transporting
materials makes it well worth while
going to little expense to move ones
own residence. The houses, of course
are built Of wood. and are raised by
means of jacks and levers on to low
trucks. Poles are then run from the
front axle to the rear, in place of the
ordinary tongue, and a good team o.
powerful horses proceeds to haul the
dwelling to its new site. Naturally,
in moving such cumbersome loads
great care has to be taken, but many
a cottage has been moved nearly a
mile uphill without any damage be-
ing done to the structure.-Wide
