HOW WORMS MAY BE DESTROYED
If the worms have not yet attacked
a field the most practical way to
keep them out is to plow furrows in
front of them, throwing the furrow
are travelling. The worms will fall
into the furrow and when this is full
they may be killed either by drag
ging log back and forth in the fur
row or by destroying the worms in
holes previously dug at intervals of
20 feet in the bottom of the furrow
cKrosene poured on them in the
holes will destroy them.
Keroscpe poured on them in the
field the following mixture which
will attract the worms and destroy
them should be spread about:
pound of Paris green (pois-
onous).
so pounds of wheat bran.
Juice of one-half dozen oranges
Bring this mixture to n stiff dough
| by the use of dilute molasscs and
scatter 1t amongst the worms. Care
should be taken to keep this dough
from children or domestic animals.
| Prompt action to prevent tho
worms from infcsting field is much
better than later efforts to attempt
to kill them in the grain. Once tho
catcrpillars have infested n field, tho
measures necessary to destroy then
may seriously hurt or even destroy
the crop.
The worms at first are almost al,
ways localized in some definit,
breeding place in the field and i'm.
mediate efforts should be taken tc
eradicate them in these small areas
before they have had time to spread
The normal breeding place of the
army worm is in rank grass. such rs
is usually found along the edges OF
swamps or in spots of pasture land
that have been ovcr-fertilizcd. They
are practically never found in
swamDs, because the worm needs Il
reasonably dry place In which to
breed.
Clean cultivation, rotation OF
crops, cleaning up of fence corners
close pasturagc. and the burning over
of waste grass land in the spring OF
fall, are good measures to prevent Il
recurrence of the army worm.

Lesson in Scientific
 Complexion Renewing

%aEveryone has beautiful skin under heath the one exposed to view. Bear that in mind and it will be easier to understand the correct principle in ac- quirtng "a lovely complexion. Nature faky particles like dandruff. on1y much i smaller in size. In abnormal condf- tioQs, or in advancing age, these parti- cles are not shed as rapidly as in TO- bust youth. The longer they remain the more soiled or. faded they become that's the immediate cause of bad complexion
 ! It. has. been discovered that ordinary mercoltzed wax. to be had at any drug store, will absorb these wornout parti- cies. The absorption, while hastening Natures work, goes on gradually enough to cause no inconvenience. Tn d week or two the transformation is complete. The fresh, healthy-hue youthful underskin is then wholly in evidence. You who are not satisfied with, your complexions should get an ounce Of mercolized wax and try this treatment Use the wax nightly, like cold cream, washing it off mornings.

So little is known about the strate- gic positions mentioned in the dis patches from the European war zone that the National Geographic Society is issuing what has been called the Primer of the Wars Geography. It Is as follows:

 It's population is about, 50,000, and it is situated about Is miles northeast of the present capitol With Tirfe- mont. St. Trond, and Tongres it fur

 Local tradition has it that Louvain
 vas established as permanent miIf-
 tary camp by Julius Caesar. ,The
 common people rose up. against the nobles, during the fourteenth century,
 but were put down after a struggle of 20 years. Thereafter the importance and prosperity of qLouvain declined,
 and Brussels took it's place. It has
 one of the finest universities in Bel
 gium, which brides itself most on its
 theological school.
 Iibau-A port of Russia, on the
 Baltic sea, a little less than 50 miles
 from the extreme northern part of Northeast Prussia 1. It has a popula- tion of about 75,000. Troops marching from Menel, Prussia, could arrive by land without leaving their own ter ritory more than 50 miles behind. It has railway connections with. Moscow, Orel and Kharkov.
