were spent in the earth preparing to
pupate and in the pupal stage.
Moreover, it will be remembered
that by October 25,when Mr.. II. S.
Stiles sent specimens to the Expert
ment Station, the brood of caterpil-
lars had reached sufficient numbers
and size to attract attention. Farm
ers were much alarmed at this time.
II is reasonable to suppose that the
wroms had been feeding at least
ten days, and the eggs We're probab-
" laid not much later than October
/. 1t is not improbable, therefore,
that the moths might have emerged
from the pupal stage as early as
September at least. 1t seems, the,
more likely that there is but one
brood Of these insects in Montana.
The adult moth appears about the
first of August and in q Jew days
lay eggs which soon hatch into min
ute caterpillars.
The egg.-When first laid the
eggs are white but before Matching
they become brown. They are at
tached to grass and other vegetation
The young larva.-The young
cutworms are very small and very
dark colored. They crawl with a
looping motion and thus resemble
measuring worms.
The large larVa.-When nearing
full size the larvae, though dark
are much lighter than when small
There is the appearance of broad
light stripe down the middle of the
back and on either side of it dark
stripe. There is much variation il
the darkness of the general coat O
the body. The largest worms are ;
little over two inches long.
The earthen cell and pupa-Whel

fully fed the larva disappears into
the earth and constructs vertical
oval cell in which it transforms to
pupa in about six or seven days.
The pupa is brown in color and
shorter than the caterpillar. About
nine weeks are spent in this cell.
Since the moths are out and lay
ing their eggs in the latter part of
August and in September, it is of
much Importance that fallow grain
lands be kept as free of weeds and
volunteer grain as possible in order
that the moths may be induced to
lay their eggs elsewhere, for they
will not deposit eggs in the soil of
a clearly kept field.
Likewise, it is desirable to keep
the borders OF the fields free of in
viting vegetation.
Suspected fields, intended for
planting in sugar beets, cabbages,
and small crops, should be tested in
the spring before planting, by the
use OF few bait plants or some
fresh vegetation scattered about
over the bare soil to discover wheth-
er or not it is safe to plant out the
crop. After a day or two, if the
worms are present, they will be
found to have eaten the bait plants
or will be in hiding near the scat
tered fresh vegetation.
Ii the worms are found to be
present and abundant enough to
threaten the proposed crop, it is
we'll to scatter poisoned vegetation
on the field.

 GERMAN ATTACHES
Emperor William Has Personal In- terest in Withdrawal of Captains
 BOy-Ed and Won Papen.

Washington, Dec. S-Emperor William has a personal interest i'll the withdrawal of Captain Karl Boy- Ed and Capt. Franz Won Papen, at taches of the German embassy here.
 State department officials have been informed that as the attaches were personally appointed by Emperor William he personally probably will give the orders for their withdrawal. It is understood that the officials considered it probable that the Berlin foreign office was prompted to ask what caused the action of the United States in declaring the attaches per- soma non grata so that when report of the incident is made to the Fun peror it may be complete in all de- tails.
 The belief prevailed in official cir cles that Ambassador Bernstorff would not be able to inform Secre- tary Lansing that the wishes of the United State would be complied with before Saturday at the earliest.

When your tongue is coated evenly, all your breath is bad the chances are that you are bilious. Ifyou also have indiges- tion, constipation, headache and gen. eral ill feeling, there is scarcely a doubt about it. Your liver needs attention.
 Harsh cathartics which purge violently and then produce reaction only aggra- vate the trouble. Gentle assistance is what nature needs to establish regular habits of health and Pinklets, the little pink laxative pills, free from harmful or habit-forming drugs meet the require- ment most admirably.

"Shc Hasn't Been Worthy"
 (Collier's Weekly.)

Romain Roland (biographer, cri- tic of music, and novelist) is very properly best known for his great novel, Jean Christophe'' In the summer of 1911 M. Roland was in terviewed at Paris by young Amer ican journalist, MT. Grenville Vernon; and the conscientious American sent him a copy of the interview before it's publication in a New York news paper. AS luck would have it, M. Hollands reply lies before us now. One of it's paragraphs, written more than four years since, is at once d triumph in expression and an almost startling prophecy. The author of Jean -Christophe'' is discussing mod ern Germany:
 Take not that I am no enemy of Germany. I love it's old musicians too well, and it's poets-above all Goethe, whom I admire more than any artist of the nineteenth century. What I do not pardon Germany is having betrayed it's idealism. It is not that Germany has been victor tous. It is that Germany has abused by arms the first rank in Europe. She hasn't been worthy of it. What vital word has she brought us? None. She has crushed us under material force. No moral force has radiated from her. She has left us without light. That light we shall rekindle without her-and, if need be, against her.
 In the letters of a thinker who is also a creator, one finds at times the specialization of the thought of an epoch. But it is not often that we may read at first hand the con- temporary letters of such a thinker and creator, crystallizing the thought of our own times. M. Hollands let ter to MT. Vernon presents the in- dictment brought against modern Germany by the world at large. "In 1870 she conquered by arms the first rank in Europe. She hasn't been worthy of it. She has crushed us under material force. No moral force has radiated from her." Those sentences might we'll be engraved in due season upon the tombs of the Hohenzollerens and the Hapsburgs, and upon the tomb of Mohammed V ally of those most Christian rulers. And fitting it is that France. whose sons are dying that France and free ideals may live, should carve the in- scription.

Search Proves Futile.

Rome, Dec. 7, 7:55 D. m. (Delayed) A search by two steamers, one a Greek and the other Italian, at the spot near Tobruk, Tripoli, where the American oil steamer COmmunipaW was sunk by submarine, failed to reveal any sign of the tank ship or of survivors. These steamers were sent out as soon as word was received at Tobruk that a ship had been sunk.
 The first report of the affair came from the captain of a steamer, who said that while he was cruising near Tobruk he witnessed the sinking of an American steamer by a SubmerSible. He thought the name of this steamer was the Columbia. Inquiries made later, especially through the British authorities, proved that the ship was the Communipaw.
 Held Up By Italy.
 The Communipaw was held up re- gently by the Italian government at Genoa, but was allowed to sail for her destination on December ?. After wards she touched at Castellammare, near Naples, proceeding eastward. The COmmunipaw had on board 15,oOO tons of oil and had been held up at Genoa to settle a question concerning 5000 tons of this oil which the Italian authorities suspected might be con- traband. The Comnlunipaw was re- leased after satisfactory explana- tion had been received and the Amer ican embassy at Rome had made rep resentations to the Italian govern ment.
