LANSDOWNE FEARS
SERBIA IS DEFEATED
MAKES ADMISSION IN HOUSE or
LORDS THAT SERBIAN FORCES
ARE IN GRAVE DANGER.
Does Not Believe That Serbian Army
viii be Able to Withstand for Any
Great Length of Time Attack Of
Austro- German Forces.

London.-Replying to question by
Earl Loreburn In the house of lords
Teusday afternoon, as to the progress
Of the campaign In the Balkans, the
Marquis OF Lansdowne, the unionist
leader, who holds seat in the cabi-
net, without portfolio, said:
81 must say with great regret / am
afraid we must admit that the prog
ress Of the campaign in northern Ser
bia has been such as to render 1t
highly improbable that the Serbian
army will be able to Withstand for any
great length of time the attacks to
which 1t Is exposed from the Austro-
German forces on the north, aided by
the stab In the back which Serbia Is
receiving at the hands Of Bulgaria"
While there was no criticism Of the
conduct of the near eastern campaign
there was a general demand when the
house of lords met for information,
and the suggestion Of smaller cabi-
net to have charge of the war received
support.
Lord Lansdowne. in his reply, gave
general review of the Saloniki oper-
atoms, while Earl Curzon of Kedles-
ton, lord priyy seal, made the state
ment that Premier Asquith had under
consideration the matter OF Q smaller
executive.

BEST OUTFIT FOR SPRAYING
Good Barrel Pump viii Last Lifetime
and Can Be Used for WhItewash-
Ing, DIsinfecting, Etc.

For commercial orchard work II is
never advisable to purchase any spray
ing outfit smaller than a barrel pump.
A good barrel will last lifetime and
can be used for purposes other than
spraying, such as whitewashing, dis.
injecting, etc. When an orchardist
has a sufficient number Of trees to re-
quire five or six barrels Of liquid for
one spraying, 1t Is advisable to pur-
chase tank holding 200 to 800 gal
Ions with q double-acting sprayer; or
better, II he can afford 1t, q gasoline
power.
The pump should be brass lined
to prevent corroding or rusting OF the
parts. The pump must have suffl-
GENTLY large air chamber to keep the
pressure uniform: one that will with
comparative ease keep pressure of
at least $50 pounds on two leads Of
hose.
AS the principal ingredient in many
of the insecticides and fungicides Is
the fine material held in suspension
there must be perfect agitation that
will keep the liquid in constant mo-
ton. The nozzles must be the best
that are suited to the occasion. Those
of the bordeaux type are not very
satisfactory in ordinary usage.

WAYS OF ERADIcATING PEST
Injury From Tent caterplllars May
Be Prevented by Spraying With
Arsenate Of Lead.
(By F. L. wAsHBURN.)

Tent caterpillars come from an egg
laid by brownish moth OF medium
size. The eggs are deposited in bands
around the smaller twigs Of apple,
wild cherry and other trees. They
hatch the following spring. and the
caterpillars begin feeding upon the
young leaves
{ When full grown, the caterpillars
are about two inches long, somewhat
hairy, and one form has longitudinal
white stripe In the center OF the back.
lat this time they leave the tree and
wander off singly to seek sheltered
places where they spin their cocoons.
Three weeks later the moths emerge
and lay their eggs.
!! II grower Is spraying his fruit
trees faithfully with arsenate Of lead
In any shape, this of itself will pre-
went injury from tent caterpillars,
since any internal poison is fatal to
them; or the tents may be crushed
with the gloved hand when they can
be reached; or they can be burned
by q torch on the end Of pole; or
they can be twisted out Of their place
by means of wire brush made for
the purpose, attached to the end Of @
long pole. These remedies are ef-
lfectual only when the caterpillars are
in their tents early In the morning,
or in wet weather. Even on trees
which are not ordinarily sprayed
single spraying of arsenate of lead.
when caterpillars are observed. would
probably stop their depredations.
In the case Of the forest tent cater
pillar the larvae can be destroyed
when they collect in punches on the
trunks of trees. Prune of and de-
stroy the twigs holding the eggs.

ard that meets the demands of the
packing houses.
The hog that best meets the de-
mand of the present time Is we'll
muscled hog, that will supply fair
amount OF lard, and fat meat well
marbled with lean, and be ready for
market at any desired age.
Practical pig growers, and feeders
of market hogs look for good quality,
depth, length and width of form. and
uniformity of type, regardless OF the
breed, color and characteristic mark
ings.
However, it is essential that we Sc.
lect our breeding animals from some
well-estabished breed, for promiscu-
GUS mating of swine of various types
has tendency to destroy the types
of all the breeds employed in the
crosses and to throw away the result
of years Of systematic selecting and
mating, and perpetuate certain fixed
type in the breed. This point has
been Illustrated by mating a half Po-
land China and half Chester White
SOW with pure-bred Berkshire boar.
The pigs resulting from the cross were
red. spotted, speekled and striped,
showing that the improved type of all
three used in the cross was lost, and
with 1t the improvements in color and
markings.
The result was the return Of the Off
spring by the principle of herelity to
the original scrub type.

HOGS INFESTED WITH WORMS
Many Owners Never Suspect Anything
Wrong Until His Animals Show
Visible signs of Sickness.

Some hog growers positively know
their hogs are not infested with
worms, although they have never Civ
en- them anything to prevent them
Some think their hogs are all right in
this respect.
The downright truth is that 80 per
cent of the hogs are infested with
worms and the owner never suspects
until his hogs show signs of sickness.
1t pays to be on the safe side all the
time in this regard.

A GREAT CONGRESS

Speaker Clark and those associat- ed with him in the directing of the congress just adjourned, are to be congratulated upon the splendid re- cord made. It has no parallel when measured by the importance of the work accomplished. The tariff law realized at last the hopes which dem- ocrats for a generation have en- tertained of tariff reform; the new currency law is monumental and far reaching in it's effects; the repeal of the free-tolls law was most timely in view of the commercial complica- tions that have followed the war; the antitrust legislation goes far toward remedying the evils that have fol- lowed in the wake of private monopoly In addition to what has been accom- 1 plished by the joint action of the sen 1 ate and house, the house has done it's part in supporting the president on other matters which have failed of fi- nal action of the senate. The senate l has been handicapped by the rules which permit minority to indefinite l ly extend debate and thus retard leg lislation, but with larger democratic majority in the next senate it Is al most certain that that body will SC change it's rules as to enable the ma iiority to assume responsibility fol l legislation.
 The Sixty-third congress will stand out in history as vindication of the peoples faith in the democratic party It kept the pledges of the party ano contributed largely to the victory won last fall which gives us an in crease in the senate and majority in the house large enough for al practical purposes.

 The report received on an anaiy- sis of water from the three sources Of supply for Rogers, shows typhoid bacilH in all three samples. Rogers citizens have been warned by the water company to boil all water. The Rogers supply comes from three springs; give us deep wells, please.
 Editor Funk, of the Rogers Demo crat visited the source of water sup ply for Rogers, recently, and the following is his official" report:
 When one visits the new
 spring, or rather the new outlet
 for large portion of the
 Diamond spring, and sees the
 great amount of water flowing
 from under the rock with the
 volume of regular little river,
 seeming as pure and clear as cry
 stal, it is difficult to realize that
 it can have been the eouree of
 sickness and death And one is
 inclined to the belief that great
 effort should be made to protect
 and purify all possible sources of infection, and retain the present source of olr water supply
