ant enemy to agriculture, in that 1t
seriously reduces the value of live
stock. 1t is also suspected of carry
ing infantile paralysis. In Montana
the department is conducting anoth-
err investigation of disease-breed-
ing insect. This is the carrier OF
spotted fever"-a species of tick in
the northern Rocky mountain region.
Still another investigation has to do
with the possibility that pellagra IS
transmitted by insects. This has not
yet been proven.
The department of agriculture's
bureau of entomology has a bulletin
for distribution dealing with the ty-
phoid fly. Remedies and preventions
are recommended.

HARTSVILLE, S. ca large ele-
plant which escaped from circus
train, said to have been wrecked to-
day on the Seaboard Air Line, was
killed tonight in the woods about six
miles from here by a large party of
men, who in a long chase used shot
guns, rifles and axes in dispatching
the mammal. Excitement was great,
and many were the wild, but base
less, rumors of damage done by the
beast. An effort was made to have
the local militia ordered out to pro-
tect the inhabitants from the ele-
plant, which no doubt was merely
displaying the exuberance of spirit
induced by its new found liberty. So
far as known no person or property
was injured by the late jungle den
izen.

A TEXAS INSTITUTION
A DAY ON WHICH FARMERS AND
TOWNFOLK GET TOGETHER.
The First Monday Everybody Goes to
Town and Talk and Buy Goods
While Brass Bands Play.

Down in Texas the first Monday
in each month is Trades Day. and is
the brightest, happiest, busiest day
Of the month for many a town" says
a writer in Farm and Fireside. AS
early as 8 o'clock every road is
crowded with farm wagons, buggies
and automobiles The entire family
comes, including the hired hand and
the little dog under the wagon
Business and pleasure are com
bined. The men trade live stock,
farm machinery, and land; exchange
experiences concerning crops, cultur-
al methods and animals; and some
swap lies Men are here from
distance with fine stock for sale.
Spirited auctions are going on all the
time. Usually the commercial club
offers prizes for the best colts, ETC.,
a premium for the farmer who comes
the longest distance and many other
competitions.
"The big brass band plays almost
continuously. The ladies of the town
serve monstrous chicken pie din
ners. There are handy rest rooms
for the farmers wives. Free tickets
to matinees at the movies are given
to every visitor in the town by the
various merchants. Usually the town
boys and the country boys play base
ball. There are horse races at the
park. Lectures on various farm sub
jects, or rather illustrated talks, are
rendered by experts.
ut is a great occasion The towns
people and those from the rural dis
tricts mingIe. Mrs. Jones, from the
Happy Hollow community, exchanges
recipes with the wife of the leading
banker of the town The women Of
the farm swap settings Of eggs, Cos
sip, and otherwise enjoy themselves.
The children, the hired men and the
little dog under the wagon have a
good time.
Far more important than finan-
cial benefits of these First Mondays
is the fact that they break the monot-
ony of farm life-a necessity for the
happiness of men, women and chill
dren living on isolated FARMS

HUGE APPROPRIATIONS ATTACKED
Senator Thomas, Democrat, of Colo
RADIO, Says an Apology Is Due.
the Republicans.

WASHINGTON.-''The aggregate
of our appropriations is appalling
and increasing by leaps and bounds, -
and the tendency of the senate was
to "go the republican party one bet
ter in expanding public funds, to-
day declared Senator Thomas of Col
orado. The treasury is coming to
be regarded as a fountain Of mercy
reachable by all, largely through the
agency of the senate" he added.
The Baltimore platform indicted the
republican party for reckless extrav-
agance. If that indictment were un-
true we owe an apology to the repub-
hcan party"
''In that connection let me say that
the total of appropriations for this
year will 800, 100000 greater than
for any other year in our history, J"
said Senator Smoot.
Senator Overman challenged proof
of this statement and Senator Smool
said if it should not prove true he
would be glad to have his attention
called to the fact at the close of the
year.
The senate had under considera-
ton the appropriation bill for the
District of Columbia.

THOUGHT CARP A LOG.
Winter Night Story of an Ohio Ice
Cutters Mistake.

An Ashtabula, Ohio, dispatch says
that Charles Williams, who lives
down East Orwell way, was putting
up ice for D. NJ. Clapp, one of the
prosperous townsmen Of East Or
we'll, when he suffered a severe duck
ing and lost a nice fish.
Mr.. Williams, who was working
on the river, stepped on what he
supposed was a big log. He balanced
himself on it for a short time and
after making sure of his foundation
started to poke ice cakes toward ~the
shore. All at once the log" went
under with a swish. 1t was carp
seven feet long. Later the fish was
caught. Competent witnesses say it
weighed lightweight pounds.
