"Thru the Mill" Giyes
Facts of Prison Life
New Book Written by "4342" Is
True Picture of Actual Life
at Saltwater

Thru the Mill" a new book
from the press of McGill-War-
ner Co. st. Paul, should attract
wide attention, being the sim
pie, direct narrative of a man
who recently served a term in
the Minnesota State Prison at
Saltwater.
The author, "4342," by which
identifications alone he appears,
has attempted nothing sensa-
tional in the recital of his ex-
periences behind the bars, and
does not bring himself into the
story more than is necessary.
Rather does he tell his story
from the standpoint of the in
terested observer who may have
special opportunities for inside
ideas Of points on which the
general public is, and always
will be interested, and natural
ly curious.
The only distinctive partisan
attitude taken by "4342" is
against the Indeterminate Sen
tense, which, he says results in
untold and unnecessary misery
from suspense and worry, and
on points of certain traditional
details of prison routine such as
the rule Of silence and the atti-
tude of some of the prison
guards and keepers coward pris-
oners in their care.
Several chapters are devoted
to detailed description of prison
regulations regarding punish
ments, cell Accommodations, food,
clothing, labor, school, recrea-
ton, ETC., and with thirty pages
of illustrations of the in and out
side of the old and new prisons,
Thru the Mill" resolves itself
into complete and comprehen-
sive history as well as an in
tensely interesting story.
Thru the Mill" as we'll as a
valuable reference, is a story
full of pathos and straight-from-
the-shoulder facts, with those
few bright spots that such a
narrative can afford. Altogether,
the book throws an interesting
search light into a corner of So
ciety about which the every day
world thinks little and knows
less, and it is probable that in
terest in certain much-discussed
reforms may be stimulated

HOW TO KILL CUT WORMS

The cut worm will get your
garden truck if you don't watch
out. If you haven't fall plowed,
you may successfully fight the
pests by the use of poison.
A slightly different formula
from the old-fashioned poisoned
bran mash was found very eff
fective against grasshoppers in
Kansas in 1912, says A. G. Rug
giles, of the Minnesota expert
ment station. In 1914, this mix
ture was very successfully used
against crickets, army worms
and cut worms.
The formula for the Kansas
mixture is as follows: Bran, 1
h.; Paris green, l o.. /; syrup, H.
pt.; orange or lemon, "a o.; wa
ter, ~ pts.
Mix the bran and Paris green
separately while dry. Squeeze
the juice of the orange or lemon
into the water, grating the peel
ing and pulp, and adding this
also to the water. Dissolve the
syrup in this mixture and wet
the poisoned bran, stirring thor
oughly. This mash is scattered
around the infested areas.
