NOVEL USE FOR TELEPHONE
Surgeons Employ instrument to Deter
! mine the Exact Location
of Bullets.

War is stimulus to science, and
this is reflected very strikingly in
matters pertaining to the relief Of
the wounded. The search for and
extraction of fragments of shells is
no simple matter, although surgical
endeavor has been facilitated by the
perfection of the X-rays. But these
are insufficient. A bullet may be
located speedily, but the difficulty
is to ascertain its precise position by
the probe and lancet. As result of
study and investigation a simple and
effective method Of discovery has
been perfected, which may be de-
scribed as telephoning for bullets.
Ordinary telephone receivers are
clamped over the surgeons head, one
wire being led to carbon plate and
the second wound round the knife,
probe, needle, forceps or whatever
instrument is used. With this i'm
plement the search is made, and d.
rectly it comes into contact with,
say, a bullet, a distinct click is
heard on the telephone. If the in
gtrument is rubbed across the sur
face of the buried object a rattle is
observed, and by following this clue
it is possible to withdraw the bullet
or fragment of metal. The idea is
by no means new, inasmuch as it
was employed for the first time dur
ing the Boer war; but the present
campaign has served to bring it to
a high state of nerfpction

BAD SIGN TO TAP ON WOOD
Clergyman Expresses the Opinion
That Luck Signal Is Express
ing Doubt in God.

Every time person ''taps on
wood" to counterfeit the seeming
boastfulness of having declared that
he hasn't had a sick day this year"
or some such piece of good fortune,
he is admitting that his God is no
better than those of the heather, of
an envious and quarrelsome dispo-
sition, who dislike to see human be-
ings at all exuberant over their luck,
according to the Rev. Charles Wood,
who preached last night on Tempo
rary and Permanent Peace" at the
Church Of the Covenant. He was
exhorting the congregation to make
peace with God and to believe in
him as kind Father.
Speaking Of peace in Europe, Doc
tor Wood said:
Humanity has needlessly lost
faith in peace conferences, culture,
and even Christianity in some cases,
though it was only the lack of faith
that allowed the breaking out of hos
tilities. Many wonder if war may
not become permanent condition in
the world. This is palpably impos-
sible 1t is impossible to reckon out
the duration of the war by compar-
ing statistics of natural resources Of
the countries engaged and their pc
RODS of exhaustion, but it is easy to
see that war, being an abnormal con-
dition, is bound to end in time, like
a fire or plague.
''However, peace will be nothing
but an armed truce until humanita-
rian diplomats, if we can join those
two words, come together with the
idea of an entirely equable adjust
ment, and with Christian spirit"

TO PRESERVE OLD LANDMARK
State of Connecticut Takes Over Old
est TImbered Structure In tho
State, of Historic Interest.

1t is easy, as Alice Meynell once
wrote, to replace man, and, when ma
ture has once lapsed, to replace ma
ture; to replace mans work is the
difficult task A few weeks ago Con-
necticut took over her oldest tim
bered structure, the Thomas Lee
house of Bridebrook. It was erected
by gentleman who left England
for Saybrook in 1641. It's builder
was in his old age member of the
legislature of 1876, was constable
under Sir Edmund Andres and held
a Justices court in one of the rooms
of the house. His direct descendants
still lived in it when CORVALLIS sur
rendered at Yorktown and Lee at
Appomattox, and it was the mar
riage of one of them which gave
Bridebrook it's name and theme to
one of the earlier of New England
woman poets. Two colonial organi-
cations and the Society for the Pres
ervation of New England Antiqui-
ties lent their aid to the local his
torical bodies in restoring a land
mark which, as one speaker re-
marked, should give every visitor ga

DESTROY CORN STUBBLE
Farmers Can Reduce Damage from
Corn Stalk Borer by Turning
Under Stubble In Fall.

Corn stubble should not be allowed
to stand in the field all winter undis-
turbed The corn stalk borer is one
is one Of the most notorious corn
pests of the South and evidence OF it's
work can be seen in practically any
corn field at harvest time. 1t is the
cause Of the holes that may occur in
any portion of q stalk
The corn stalk borer remains as a
larva, or worm, in the Base of corn
stubble beneath the ground during the
winter. Farmers do this insect a
their corn stubble stand undisturbed
in the field during fall and winter
Destroying corn stubble is not very
easy, except on modernly equipped
farms where there is sufficient horse
power and the stubble can be turn
ed under thoroughly. There is, there
fore, some temptation to leave it un-
disturbed But the advantages Of
turning stubble are such that a farm
er cannot well afford not to do it.
Turning it under helps very much in
reducing the corn stalk borer for
the next season.
Where thorough turning cannot be
practiced, there are other methods
such as busting OUT the stubble and
hauling it to the compost heap for rot
ting. BY another method. after the
corn is gathered stalks, stubble, and
everything else may be "busted out"
raked into heaps and, after a few
weeks for drying, burned. In expert
mental work a very large percentage
of corn stalk borer larvae (worms)
was destroyed during winter where
the Stubble was plowed out and left
exposed to the weather.
But when these methods are prac.
ticed by farmers only here and there
1t will not help the situation very
much. The control Of the corn stalk
borer depends upon the cooperative
action Of the farmers Of a community
The fact must also be borne in
mind that 1t Is an eXtravagant prac-
tice to let corn fields lie idle and ex-
posed during the winter months, not
oriy on account of theae insect pests,
but also on account of the loss from
washing and teaching OF soils.
