GET AFTER SUMMER PESTS
This Is the Time to Wage War Against
the Deadly Fly and the An
noyng Mosquito.

Let us bear in mind that one Of
the prime objects of a spring cleanup
is to eliminate the fly and the mos
quito. When we are exercising our
muscles and our ingenuity Kidding
our dwellings and neighborhoods of
dust and filth, it will be worth our
while to give these twin winged pests
serious attention.
The first spring fly, or course, came
some time ago, though she is still
pleasantly modest and retiring. 1t is
not reassuring, however, to reflect
that the little insect is keeping care
fully out of our sight and the reach
Of our swatters while she lays a few
myriads of eggs, which presently will
hatch out into whole flying regiment
Of nuisances and disease-carriers.
The shy and unobtrusive mosquito
is making the best use Of her time
for the same purpose. When the open
season on human beings arrives she
hopes to have whole army corps OF
her progeny to lead to the attack
Now is the time to get busy If we
want to preserve ourselves from the
pests few months hence. The swat
ter and the kerosene can are fully as
important household implements at
this season as the broom and the
scrubbing brush.

settling into the soil. Leave space
vacant in the top of the pot, an inch
or more, according to the size of the
pot and the amount of water needed
by the plant.
For plants having hard, woody stems
the soil may be level on the surface
and no harm is done, and the water
standing around the stem will not in
jure it; but for soft crown-centered
plants like the primrose the soil
should be higher in the center than
at the edge.
1t is we'll, too, to avoid pouring
water into the crown Of the plant, as
the manner in which the leaves come
up makes them drain the water down
into the crown of the plant and pro-
duce what is known as "crown-rot,"
which kills all buds that form.
Much is said of using thumb pots
in which to root cuttings, but CATER
roofing hundreds) l prefer three-inch
pots to smaller ones. If tiny seedlings
are to be potted off, then the thumb
pot may be best for the first trans
planting; but even here / would use
small, shallow boxes for flats" until
the third transplanting would bring
the plants up to where they are ready
for the three-inch pot, or the open
ground.

SCALP ITCHED AND BURNED

S33 South Scioto St, Circleville,
Ohio.-"My little girls trouble first
started on her head in bunch OF lit

inflamed and the burning and itching
were so intense that she would scratch
and rub till it would leave ugly sores.
The sores also appeared on her body,
and her clothing irritated them SO

failed to remark also the interesting
facts that the shower is falling down

Lanuuaue Not likeIy to Last.

Mistral, the great Provencal poet,
whose death was announced lately,
has been likened to Robert Burns for
the work he did. But Burns task
was childs play compared with Mis-
trails. The Scottish poet found his
language fully grown and completely
alive; Mistral had to create his means
of expression. Provencal had lost ev-
cry resemblance to a literary tongue.
and the new poetpatriot had to mold
it alfalfa, to recreate and to build up
on the ruins left by the vineyard and
the farm. Our Provencal," said Mis-
trail, was country lass, ragged and
wild" She is now wonderfully beau
tiful creature; but it is doubtful
whether all the genius of Mistral can
keep her alive. The educational re-
former in France does not like such
irregular beauty.

how. She laughed and told me it was
easy to make good coffee when you

COPPER MINERS
CALL OFF STRIKE;
UNION IS IGNORED
Western Federation Not Recog-
nized-AIl Other Demands
Reported Granted.

HANCOCK, Mich, April IS. - The
copper mine workers who have been
ON strike since July % last, voted
yesterday to call off the strike. ac-
cCrding to an announcement made to-
Gay by Charles e. Hietela, district
secretary of the Westerdn Federation
of Miners. The figures will not be
given out until after a meeting of
the district board this afternoon.
1t is unofficially reported that the
majority in favor of calling off the
strike was 1912. The unofficial vote
from four of the five locals In the
district is as follows: Ahmeek, 500
for returning to work, Il against;
Calumet, 29l for. 3S2 against; Han
cock, 491 for, Is against; South
Range. 4S5 for, 80 against.
Recognition of the union, denied by
the mining companies, is waived by
the strikers in voting to return to
work. They claim that practically al
other demands have been complied
with since the strike began. These
included better working conditions,
an eight hour day and minimum
daily wage of IS.
From the outset the operators have
declared that they would never reeog-
nize the Western Federation of Min
that they did not question the right
of their employees to organize Sew
eral thousand men have been import
ed to fill the strikers places. and the
companies will be hard pressed to find
work for the returning strikers.
When the strike began the union
claimed that approximately $4,000 men
were out. Since that time many of
these have returned to work and 9TH
ers have moved away from the cop
per district The latest estimate of
the number on strike made by Seore-
tary Hietela, placed the figure at
about 5000 The mining company
estimates were much smaller.
The strike has been attended by
considerable violence and there has
been some loss of life. The National
Guard was ordered out in the early
days of the struggle to assist the civil
authorities In providing order. There
has been no disorder of any conse-
quenee in several months.
