SPLITWoRM PREVENTION
Department OF Agriculture Gives Ad
vice as to Tobacco Pest.

Lexington, Ky.-Advance excerpts
OF an agricultural bulletin on How
To Prevent the Tobacco Splitworm"
have been received here. Transplant
the tobacco crop as early as possible
in order to mature it before the ap-
pearance of the most destructive gen
GRAFTON of the tobacco splitworm. The
bulletin advises, when the early infec.
tatlon is very severe, 1t is recommend
ed that the infected leaves be primed
OF and destroyed; also, destroy all
tobacco stubble as soon as the crop
is harvested, to prevent the breeding
OF alternating generation; clean up
and destroy all trash in and around
fields and tobacco barns; do not fol-
low potatoes by tobacco if the infecta-
ton of tobacco has been more severe
in such cases than where different ro-
tation was followed; grow potatoes as
far as possible from tobacco fields

Commuters Ideal Jurist.

"A judge should so conduct himself
that the respect for the judicial branch
of our government would amount TO
reverence. This confidence has in
most cases been deserved and main
tanned by the men occupying judicial
positions in ;his state. A judge should
be the personihcation Of integrity, OF
honor and Of uprightness in his walk
and conversation. He should hold his
exalted office and the administration
of justice above the sordid desire to
accumulate wealth. He should be free
and unaffected by any bias born of
avarics and unhampered by improper
obligations. There is nothing in the
recor1. however, to show that this
judge has prostituted his high judicial
once for personal profit or that he has
ate mpted in any way to commercial
ize s,s potentiality as a Judge"
