THE FOURTH.


One hundred and thirty eight years
AGO tomorrow the Declaration Of In.
dependence was formally adopted at
Philadelp' ia and tie old Liberty Bell
in the sieeple Of Independence Hall
rang out the glad tidings that hence
forth and forever this people would
be free and would no longer, sub
init To oppre, sive British laws. That
declaration led to a long and bloody
war which finally ended in a COM
pete surrender Of all authority OF the
British over this country. Tn. re-
suit of the heroic action OF our fore
fathers in first lromalga ing the De-
claration of Independence and then
with life and limb and leprIvati0ns

pie hav, fed 10 these shores by thu
millions where they a,e guaranteed
the right Of freedom Of speech, the
pursuit Of happiness, and can worship
God according to the dictates Of their

email nation Of one or two millions at
the close Of the Revolutionary War
we have, spread over the vast ex-

lation of ore hundred millions OF
happy thriving people, who, only now

their prosl Gritty by unwise laws en-
acted by incapable Legislators.
We should celebrate the Fourth

but with spirit Of patriotic thank

" aohiuS ton1 IL ~
'sHas your wheat been infested with
the Hessian fly this season is ques-
ton that the U. S. Department of
Agriculture is now asking farmers
The information is desired that there
may be general cooperation between
ali concerned in reducing the devasta-
tons of the fly. There is every indi-
cation that the pest will be unusually
troublesome to the croy this fall.
Every wheat grower in the country
who suspects that his crop has been
infested is requested to send his nam-
to the Departments Bureau of Ento-
mology at Washington, d. c., with a
request for question blank. The
questions to be answered are as to
whether the wheat growers's crop was
infested at certain seasons. The
farmer will then be asked to forward
some Of the infested wheat plants for
examination, postage to be paid by the
Government. He will also be asked
to give his name, address, and the
nearest railway station.
The Department is cooperating with
various State Experiment Stations in
this campaign against the Hessian fly,
and in some cases the infested straw
win be sent by the farmer to local sta
tons for examination. The wheat
grower can learn just where his sample
Of straw is to be sent when he sends
name to the Department, indicating
his willingness to send the sample. |
The Department encourages the sender
not to be afraid to forward too much |
of the straw, even though it has to be
sent by parcel post. The upper part
of the straw need not be sent, but
enough above the ground should be in
cluded to get the insect in what is
known as the s'flaxseed'' stage when
the larva is incased in a hard, brown
skin and somewhat resembles a flax
seed. The insects will remain for a
considerable time in the s'flaxseed''
state during a drought and will onl,
emerge after rains have moistened the
soil. Dry weather in the late summer
tends to keep the insect in that stage,
which is fact of special importance
in the North where the wheat must be
sown early enough to enable the plants
to stand the winter.
Probably no other insect cause
more damage to the wheat crop in the
United States than the Hessian fly, a.
though there are certain years when
the chinch bug exceeds the fly in its
devastations. During the seasons
when tht(fly is especially abundal
hundreds Of thousands of acres Of
wheat may W either totally destroyed
or so badly jnjnred as to reduce the
yield 20 to per cent The monetary
losses run Ar up into the millions.
A ndhsber of years ago there was ia
Kansas general cooperation between
grain dealers, millers and farmers to
restrict the Aavages of this dangerous
insect. According to their own e,ti-
mate. over a million dollars were saved
BY prompt action and thorough meas
urss. This year the Department hopes
to secure general cooperation through |
out the country in combating the pest. !
There are indications that its ravages
may BY severe. Already in iowa and
Oklahoma there have been threaten
ing outbreaks of the insect.
Not onI are Federal and State or
,anizsfie, the Government cooper

DONOtHOld Market
able Eggs too Long

The United States department Of agri-
culture advises the farmer who special
ICES in marketing eggs TO market his
product frequently. The farmer often
makes use of an egg case In which to
keep his eggs and Garry them to market
Sometimes he owns the case and some
times II Is furnished by the storekeeper.
Often the case is one holding 80 dozen
eggs, and as there is tendency to wait
until the case Is filled, which takes con-
siderable time with the average-sized
flock, before taking it to market, the
quality of some of the eggs will have
suffered appreciably. Fifteen-dozen size
cases are also used for this purpose and
are much preferable. as they encourage
more frequent marketing.
Another factor which influences the
frequency of marketing Is the distance
of the farm from the village or country
store. The greater the distance, the less
often are the trips made and consequent
ly the less convenient 1t is to market
eggs frequently.
The department has made investigations
on 80 Kansas farms to discover how the
distance from market influences the fire.
quency of marketing eggs. Twenty-six
of the farmers sent their eggs twice a
week to market, 81 sent them once a
week, and only once in two weeks. Al.
