CHAPTER X.

My father died when I was only a young girl. We had not much money, and my mothers older brother took us to his home to live. My mother was his youngest sister and he loved her more than any one else living There was another sister, a half-sis. ter, much older than my mother, and she had one son. He was a sulky, handsome boy. with a selfish cruel nature. He seemed to be happy only when he was tormenting some one. He used to come to Uncle's to visit when 1 vas there, and be delighted in an moving me. He stretched barbed wire where he knew was going to pass in the dark, to throw me down and tear my clothes. He threw a quantity of burrs In my hair, and once he led me into hornets nest. After we went to live at my uncle's, Richard was not there so much. He had displeased my uncle. and he sent him away to school but at vacation times he came again, and kept the house in discom- fort, He seemed always to have special spite against me. Once he broke a rare Dresden vase that Uncle prized, and told him had done it.
 Mother did not live long after Fa, ther died, and after she was gone. had no one to stand between me and Richard. Sometimes I had to tell my Uncle, but oftener l tried to bear 1t, because knew Richard was already great distress to him.
 At last Richard was expelled from college, and Uncle was so angry with him that he told him he would do nothing more for him. He must go to

is SO effectively protected in the
buds and shoots that it can not be
reached by any insecticide, and the
only method of getting rid Of 1t Is
to prune out and destroy the shoots
which contain the insect. This
should preferably be done during the
fall and winter. Though it is easier
to locate the injured tips and shoots
after growth has started in the
spring, it is safer and better for the
tree to have it done in the fall.
Measures for control, to be effective,
can not be accomplished without the
cooperative action of all who grow
or plant European pines or deal in
them.
Further information in regard to
the insect may be obtained by appli-

aTHE U. s.. Department Of Agricul-
ture is calling attention to the
introduction and establishment
in America of the European pine
shoot moth, which threatens to cause
serious loss. This insect is a small
orange-red moth, the larva Of which
hollows out new buds and kills or
Injuries the ends Of twigs of pine
trees. This injury causes a de-
formity which is serious in orna-
mental trees, and in trees grown for
lumber makes a crooked growth and
a consequent waste when the tree
is cut.
In Europe the insect not only at
tacks all native pines but is equally
injurious to American species cult
waited there. The Department states
that the young larvae came into this
country within the buds on imported
pine seedlings which have come from
France, England, Holland, Belgium,
or Germany. The departments in
vestigator's have discovered 1t in
only ten localities, in six state from
Massachusetts, to Pennsylvania, but
1t is likely that it may be found in
other localities. 1t has not been
found In any native trees in the for
est, and with only one exception has
always been on European pines in
nurseries and private parks. There
is no evidence to indicate that 1t has
been In this country more than a year
except on Long Island, where it has
existed for more than two years.
There are several native pine
shoot moths, but one Of them in
flict the serious injury of the Euro
pean species.
The Department hopes that the
new pest may be stamped out before
it becomes too widespread to be con-
trolled. At present the problem of
its elimination is confined mainly to
nurseries, but If 1t once gets into
the native pine forests the experts
think that 1t would be beyond con-

Despite the damage that these

protect their stock effectively from

Study Grain Dust Explosions

when no loss Of life occurs nothing
is heard Of a great number Of minor
occurrences. In the past year scien-
lists have carefully investigated and
studied sixteen which have taken
place since 1905. OF these four took
place in cereal mills, three in grain
elevators, two in feed mills, three
in starch factories, n in a glucose
factory, and three in flour mills. At
least so men were killed in these
explosions, and 1872 injured. The
total property loss exceeded $4,000
900. Since 1911, four similar ex-
plosions are known to have occurred
in Europe, two in dxtrim works, one
in a %provender mill grinding peas,
beans and wheat, and one in a lin
seed mill. Fifty persons were
killed and 119 injured in these
disasters. Such figures as these are
quite sufficient to demonstrate that
coal dust is not the only dangerous
form of carbondaceous dust. The OBJ
ject Of the scientific study now in
progress is to discover some way of
preventing the frequent accidents in
grain mills, elevators and Industrial
plants throughout the country. IF
the milling interests and the public
in general will cooperate with the
scientists, their work will be made
much easier. By informing the
Bureau of Chemistry at once of any
such occurrence, the public will en-
able the investigators to collect the
necessary evidence without delay.
From the scientific point Of view, it
is pointed out, a small explosion
may be fully as valuable as a large
one, and it is not necessary for a
mar to be killed for the accident to
be of great importance.

BECAUSE Of the damage that has
= been done in the past by explo-
sions in grain mills and in in
dustrial plants, the public is urged
to report every occurrence of this
kind, no matter how small the ex-
plosion may be, to the Bureau of
Chemistry of the q. s. Department
of Agriculture. In cooperation with
the Bureau of Mines of the Depart
ment of the Interior the Bureau of
Chemistry is now making a study
of the explosibility of grain and
other forms of carbonaceous dusts,
except coal dust. which is being in
vestigated by the former Bureau.
Up to the present a great deal of
difficulty has been experienced in
obtaining definite reports of the ex-
plosions at the time of their occur

and the public In general can, there
fore, be of material assistance by
sending in full information in re-
gard to every explosion with the
least possible delay.
The study was begun largely as
the result of an explosion in a feed
grinding plant in Buffalo, N. Y, in
1913. In this accident SO men were
killed, and more than 70 injured.
Such explosions are, unfortunately,
too common, but it is probable that

Every grain dust explosion, no

of Agriculture. Only in this way can
the Bureau be assisted in its fight
to prevent these explosions, which
often assume death-dealing proper

SCHOOL To TEACH,
PRACTICAL WRITING
Professor Null Introduces
New Idea in English
Department.

Something which has never been
introduced in the high school will be
the teaching of practical story writing
by Benjamin Null, head of the English
department. such as is common now
in the daily newspapers. magazines.
and other forms of publications. The
new idea is a departure from the old
way of theme writing which has been
common in the teaching of English in
the upper classes of the school Mr..
Null holds that the pupil can do much
better work by composing articles
which will be published or read and
the student will take more interest in
the work. He intends to have an Eng
lish class newspaper so that the stu
dents may get experience in such
work.
1t is the plan to select a staff which
will be divided into groups for writing
editorials, sports, society, general
news. and feature stories. After the
stories have been written they will be
read in class or published in the
school paper. After their reading they
will be fully discussed and criticised
by the remainder of the class.

King Regrets Home Rule
Not Accepted.

LONDON, Feb. 1O.-For the first
time in the memory of living man,
parliament opened today with the
shadow of a civil war darkening it,
The intense interest, not alone ma
tional, but world wide, was reflected
in the enormous crowd that gathered
in the streets around the parliament
building and thronged the thorough
fares over which King George drove
from Buckingham palace to read the
speech from the throne.
The streets through which the royal
party passed were lined with troops,
and the bright sunshine glittered upon
their uniforms and arms.
In opening the king said that pro-
posals would be submitted at the pres
ent session for the reconstruction of
the house of peers. The king regret
ed that the political factions had been
unable to arrive at a conclusion on
home rule for Ireland.
A fiery threat of civil war in Ireland
if the home rule bill is passed at the
session of Parliament which opened
this afternoon was made by the Right
Hon. Walter Long who was chosen by
the opposition in the House Of Com
mons to lead the fight against the
bill.
The Liberals had just moved the &C
ception of King Georges conciliatory
opening speech when Mr.. Long open
ed the Unionist fight against Home
Rule.
One hundred thousand men in I'll
ster stand ready to sacrifice their lives
in resisting the condition this bill
would impose declared Mr.. Long. The
Unionists in Parliament here will de-
mand a general election to allow the
people to have their say on Home
Rule.
