Destroying Cut Worms.

My garden is greatly troubled with
cut worms in the early spring
Would YOU advise salt to kill them2'
If "A garden ID Kept cleanly culti-
waited all the year and not allowed to
grow up in weeds in the fall, there
will be few cutworms. When 1 bought
the garden | now cultivate it had
been lying out in weeds for years,
and thu first spring + had cut worms
by the thousand and had the fight of
my life Since then my garden has
been run as an all-the-year garden
and is constantly kept in crops and
kept clean, and now there Is rarely
a cut worm, Tor the eggs are laid
among weeds in the fall. TO destroy
them in spring mix some wheat bran,
barley moistened with water sweet
ened with molasses, and add one part
of Paris green to 30 parts Of the bran
and mix 1T we'll 20 that some OF the
green sticks to every particle. Then
scattered a little around any plants
that are liable to be attacked and the
cut worms vii 1be killed. Then keep
the garden perfectly clean of grass
and weeds all the year round, and do
not merely plant spring garden and
then have a weed patch In the fall

HOY Tabby Fooled Terrier.

WAS -A witness TO WnaL was nearly
al tragedy the other day, writer in
the Towel Citizen-Courier states. An
Irish terrier and gray tabby cat
we4e az war, and the terriers barks
aIfd assaults were met by tahby's
snarls, and, a. she had chance, by
a clever stroke OF her paw. But the
battle went against her, and she
turned tail and fed, with the terrier
close after.
Tabby chose a poor route of es-
cape, however, for the sqabble &C
Cured over the canal, and tabby made
a bee line across the street through
the iron fence and dropped into the
canal.
You know what swirl of water
there - at this point, and only the
prOverhial nine lives OF the cat saved
her from drowning Fortunately, she
was washed out OF the whirlpool and
made her way to the bank of the
canal, where, as you know, the water
oEertops the wall. and reached solid
ground, apparently none the worse
for her double encounter.
The terrier was nonpulsed. His
prey had escaped, but where? He
peered through the fence and sour
ried first one way and then the other
across the bridge, his tail up, and hi
eyes full OF the lust of battle But
all 10 no purpose, SO of he sped,
probably to chase other felines and
wish himself better fortune next time.

Though the loss of life, and pos
sibly the damage, may be less than It

Edw. Beck to be Named Speaker OF
the House by Democrat Caucus. :.

The other day this paper, in refer
ring to Hon y. Edward Becks
Biz vote in a Republican county, as
well as other qualifications, suggest
ed that he should be named speaker
of the House of Representatives at
Harrisburg by unanimous vote.
Since then there have been devel-
opments that make the suggestion
quite a bit more substantial than a
mere pipe dream.
1t is now learned on reliable au-
thority that Mr.. Beck will be made
the unanimous choice of his party
for speaker. This, Of course, will not
assure his election, but if the RepuU
licans have any sort of conception OF
how to do the proper thing it will
come to that.
AT all events it will be distinct
even though empty-honor for our
townsman, and incidentally for the
| town and county. 1t will at least
have this substantial result, that ii
will single Mr.. Beck out for proper
recognition when it comes to naming
the important committees.
" Mr.. Beck was non-communicativt
to-day when seen by a representative
! of this paper, as to the speakershiI
move, but admitted that he had beer
ordered by those high up to be ir
\ Harrisburg not later than next Mon
day afternoon, from which 1t may bt
gathered that there Is something do

A Hiatus Defined.

Glenn higgins, orator, statesman
attorney, Democrat, and also well
known, was addressing a meeting OF
the general council in behalf of one
of his clients, namely, the sinking
fund commission, which collects Ii
censes and soaks away the money
taken in to pay some Of the city's
most pressing debts in the future
The sinking fund had a revenue
measure it wished passed to round
out a series of license ordinances.
let Mr. Higgins explain:
This measure is made necessary
because it has been found that there
is a hiatus in the circus and wild
animal show law that has never been
taken care Of"
There's no reason why hiatuses
shouldn't pay a license, just like
other wild animals" said someone,
swayed by Mr.. Higgins oratory
What is a hiatus, anyway"
"a hiatus" spoke up Councilman
Thomas Dolan, it, no animal at all
IT. that space between where the
vest ends and the pants begin when
the two don't join as they should
That's a hiatus
Mr.. Higgins certainly uses big
words.-Louisville Times.

TARHEELs NEED NOT GO ADRHs
Virginia Court Holds Common Car
riers Must Transport Liquor.

Richmond, Va, Jan. 13.-The Vir-
ginia Supreme Court held today that
common carriers cannot refuse to
transport from Virginia into North
Carolina liquors intended for per
sonal consumption, but not for sale.
The decision, which reverses the
Corporation Court at Bristol, Va,
says the trial court erred in holding
the Webb-Renyon Federal law con
stitutional and in holding the North
Carolina statute-prohibitin the i'm
portation of liquors-to be within
the purview Of the Federal law.
The case came to the Supreme
Court On an appeal from the decis-
ion of the Bristol Court upholding an
express company in its refusal to
transport liquors from Bristol into
North Carolina cities.

TUBERCULOSIS CAMPAIGN
SPENDS TWENTY MILLIONS
SiXty-siX per cent. Comes From Pub
Lie Funds-NeW York State Leads.
More than $2O,5OO,OOO was spent

SiXty-siX per cent. Comes From Pub
Lie Funds-New York State Leads.
More than $20,5OO,OOO was spent
last year in the campaign against
tuberculosis in the United States. OF
this sum, 66.S per cent was derived
from public funds, either federal,
state, county or municipal, and the
remainder was contributed by private
philantrophy. These are some of
the interesting figures contained in
the annual statistical statement OF
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis, made public today. The state
ment is based largely on actual re-
ports received from anti-tuberculosis
agencies throughout the country, but
WLeTe- reports are not available, the
figures have been estimated.
Institutional care and treatment of
consumptives in hospitals and sana-
toria makes up the largest share Of
the total expenditures More than
Sill, 100000 was spent for this pur-
pose, with an additional $925,O00 for
special treatment of tuberculosis in
sane and prisoners. These figures
ance, but in some instances the cost
OF construction Of institutions. Anti
tuberculosis associations spent the
next largest sum, amounting to a
little over 100000. Care of patients
in dispensaries and by visiting nur-
ses cost almost a. much, approx
mately $860,O0O The growth Of the
open air school movement il shown
in the fact that last year more than
100000 was spent for this purpose,
as against $4,000 expended five years
ago. State and city boards of health
spent 100000 directly on tubercu-
losis work
In the last five years, the percent
age of money spent from public
funds has steadily increased from
53 per cent in 1909 to 69.3 per cent.
in 1913, and 66-S per cent. last year.
The National Association considers
this increase significant, since it in
dicates a shifting of the burden of
institutional care of the consumptive
from the private purse to the general
public purse where it rightly BE-
longs.
New York State spent more money
last year in the tuberculosis cam
paign than any other two states in
the Union, due largely to the increas-
ID and rapidly developing movement
for city and county care of the tuber-
culous. Pennsylvania, which has
occupied second place for the past
four years, was superseded last year
by Illinois, with Massachusetts in
fourth place and Colorado in fifth
place
