Frederick, Md. May THE foot
and disease has reappeared
among swine on the farm of William
II. Mckinney. near Buckeystown, and
State officials have guaranteed the
place. This is one of the two farms
in this county where the disease de-
veloped last fall, when all the live
stock except horses, including 80 cat
tie, 100 hogs and so sheep, were killed.
The discovery of more cases after
the supposed stamping out Of the dis
ease has caused apprehension among
farmers and cattle breeders. State
and Federal authorities are here to
take the outbreak in hand and every
precaution will be taken to keep the
outbreak from spreading.

Aerial Dreadnauqhts,

When Mr.. Tenant spoke in the
house of commons recently on the
large aeroplanes used by Russia, he
was abiding to what is known as the
S1korsky biplane, the dreadnaught of
Tying machines. This bipIane is the
largest heavier-than-air machine yet
invented, and can carry at least twice
the load Of any known aeroplane. The
dead weight Of the machine is no less
than three and half tons, and it can
carry load of over ton. ~
Nearly half ton of fuel and oil is
carried, and when on a war recon
Nuisance could carry quarter of
ton OF explosives, consisting perhaps
OF half a dozen giant bombs, each
weighing 10 pounds, as compared with
the one or two which aeroplanes now
carry, or ten or a dozen 20-pound
bombs. Although compared with
Zeppelin the Sikorsky biplane only
carries about quarter the amount of
explosives, and has a much shorter
range, it has the very great advan-
tage of being much cheaper, easier
to build, less at the mercy of the
elements, and a smaller target 1t
was stated in 1914 that the Russian
government had ordered five Of these
big biplanes.-London Times

USE FOR OLD LAMP FRAME
May Re Quite Easily Made Into
Tea Cory That Will Be Decid-
eddy Attractive.

Have you in your collection of relics
a wire frame left from a WORKOUT
lamp? If so the following suggestion
will make It possible for you to root
out the frame and put it to good use
After removing the dust get the exact
measurements from top to bottom and
the size of the open space at the top
With these figures in your mind or
on your memorandum pad buy suffl-
cient asbestos to cover the entire
frame, or buy muslin and lambs wool
to make a padding to be placed around
the frame. Then purchase sufficient
silk. linen or cretonne to cover the
heat-proof frame. At the top of the
shade pla a dolls head to act as a
handle. or if your finer sensibilitles
will not permit of such thing use a
loop of cording for the purpose BY
thjs time you are anxious to know
what is to be done with the GOV,
cred frame. 1t is to act as coy
for your teapot.

CRINOLINE SEEMS COMING IN
Is Having an Effect on the Present
Styles That Is Plain to All
Who Observe.

The crinoline has not confined it's
influence to dance, dinner and we'd
ding frocks, for it is equally popu-
lar for street wear. There are cos
tunes of worsted materials with wide,
tiaring skirts and short little jackets,
semifitted or tight as you may desire.
The lovely Empress Eugene could
have worn such a costume as a smart
New York shop is now displaying.
1t is made of military blue cloth,
and the skirt is extremely full. Rows
Of narrow black braid are stitched
through the center of the skirt, which
is short. The close-fitting, short jack
ct is fastened with braid and buttons
A band of Persian lamb borders the
jacket and edges the long sleeves,
which it is interesting to note are Of

into the normal armholes.

Another aster trouble to guard
against the black beetle. This pest
comes suddenly, does its ruinous work
rapidly. and often Injuries your plants
beyond the prospect of recovery be-
fore you are aware of it's arrival Here
is where the necessity Of keeping
watch of them comes in.
When the first beetle is discovered,
prepare an emulsion after the follow
ing formula: One-half pound of any
good, white soap, reduced to liquid
by melting.
One teacupful of kerosene.
Let the soap, to which little water
may be added while it is melting, come
to boil, then add the kerosene; re-
move from the stove and stir vigorous
ly while the mixture is cooling. A sort
of jelly will result. Use a part of this
to ten parts of water. Stir we'll to
make sure that the emulsion unites
with the water and apply as a spray.
Use it literally all over the plant, and
repeat the application frequently.
Prompt and persistent efforts are
needed to rout this voracious enemy.
