Heart of the Halls.

If it were not for the countless tr1l-

could be no raindfops. snow crystals

The dust particles serve as nuclei
about which the vapor gathers. The
snow crystal is the most beautiful ere
alton of the aerial moisture. and the
haiIstone is the most extraordinary.
The heart of every hailstone is tiny
atom of dust. Such an atom, with a
little moisture condensed about it, is
the germ from which may grow hail
stone capable of telling man or
smashing a window. But first it must
be caught up by current of air and

UTILITY OF THE SKUNK.
It Destroys Many Harmful Insect
Pests,

It Destroys Many Harmful Insect
Pests.
Prepared by United States department of
agricultural
The skunk stands among the most
important animals that choose for their
diet insects harmful to the farmer. 1t
is the best known enemy Of army
worms. including the common army
worm. the wheat head army worm and
the fall army worm. all Of which are
destructive to small grains, corn and
grasses and cause heavy losses every
year to farmers.
Two kinds Of tobacco worms, which
also attack tomato and potato plants.
are eaten by the skunk in large num-
bers. These worms change their diet
from tobacco to tomatoes with such
adaptability that they have spread
over wide areas in the United States.
The skunk's eagerness for the worm
is such that he will dig them out from
the ground in great numbers in the
late summer and destroy them.
The white grub is also dug for by
the skunk and consumed by him, and
the strawberry growers generally re-
gard this animal with favor, even
though in it's eager search for the
grubs it may uproOt the plant or eat
few berries. The skunk also eats
many mature May beetles and June
bugs. which hatch from the white
grubS.
Skunks also destroy the hop grub
and grasshoppers, cutworms, crickets.
sphinx moths. sweet potato beetles,
Colorado potato beetles, field mice and
rats. The animal is especially useful
in destroying the rats and mice that
commonly infest farm buildings. II a
skunk takes up his residence near
premises where these rats are nnun
dant it will remain there if rot dis
turbed until practically all the rodents
are destroyed.
Skunks are accused of destroying
beehives 1t is true that skunkS suf-
fer little. if any, from the stings of
bees. and one is said to be able to de-
stroy practically a whole colony Of
bees in a few visits. However. the
possibilities of this animal attacking
an apiary may be entirely avoided by
placing the hives upon high bench.

quite as imminent as cramp, though it
is probably less known. This is water
inhaling. A swimmer or even wader
is always liable to inhale spray through
his nostrils, which, passing through the
pharynx and behind the epiglottis or
windpipe guard. gets into the windpipe
and causes death. AS one would eX-

confined to the sea and very rarely
occurs in fresh water. All the same,

FAILURE IN SPRAYING.

Failure to secure good returns from
spraying is more often due to the man
who sprays than to the material used.
Bordeaux mixture as it is now recon-
mended is the result of some thirty
years of experimentation Very fire.
quently the directions as to formula
are not observed. Sometimes not
enough copper sulphate is used. or
again the amount of this chemical is
increased TO eight or ten pounds 80
each fifty gallons of the spray. A
common practice. too. is to use more
lime than is required, but an excess
of lime will reduce the adhesive quail
ity of the mixture. Properly prepare
and applied bordeaux will stand Sc
eral washings from rain. and if it does
not show this adhesiveness something
is wrong with the making.
Another possible reason of failure is
insufficient spraying. Unless the sur
face of every leaf is covered with the
fungicide. blights and insects will find
a way to enter through the unprotect-
ed areas,-Country Gentleman.
