For Cut Worms

Poison bait must be used when
cut worms become bad. Professor
Becker of the Arkansas College of
Agriculture recommends this mix
ture: Wheat bran, 20 pounds; Paris
green, pound; cheap syrup, 2quarts;
oranges or lemons, 3; water, 3 gal
Ions. Mix the Paris green with the
bran until the poison is thoroughly
scattered through the bran. Squeeze
the lemons or oranges into the water
cut up the peeline and pulp into
fine pieces and add this. Now add
the syrup to the fruit juice, then mix
the sweetened fruit juice and pois'
on bran thoroughly. Scatter the
poisoned bait in the evening as the
worms are not so likely to eat II
after it dries Keep chickens away
from il while il is fresh.

About Wheat

Wheat may follow wheat or oats
but it will pay to disc the ground
as soon as grain is shocked and seed
to cowpeas. Then plow under the
crop of peas about the first of Sep.
tember, work the ground well and
let it settle or get firm and seed
about the first of October. Another
good way is to let wheat follow corn
with peas and hog" it off in Sep
tember. Such a field may be plow.

Unsanitary Country.

According to the National Council OF
Education and the American Medical
association, country school children
are from 10 to 20 per cent less healthy
than city school children. Some OF the
reasons are that tightly closed doors
and windows and poor lighting are
more usual in the country than IN
cities; that country children's teeth
are not properly cared for; they often
do not get suitable luncheons, and
country sanitation is notoriously prim
tive.

A young author, whose ability was

was discoursing, at length upon the
merits Of his work. "I am tired

original work, something that no one
has ever written about or ever will
write about" A learned man turned
quickly to the speaker, "Why not

TELLING The TRUTH
Indiana Editor, Tired Of Being Called
A Liar, Gives Straight Goods.

1t is not pleasant and profitable
always to tell the truth in the COL
umns of a newspaper Men who
have tried this heretofore have
always come to grief. Only a few
days ago the editor of a paper in
Indiana grew tired of being called
a liar, and announced that he would
tell the truth in the near future; and
the next issue of the paper contain
ed the following items;
John BONN, the LATEST merchant
in town, made trip to Belleville
yesterday.
John Coyle, our grocer man, is
doing poor business His store is

Manufacturers Fear
 A Further increase

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 29.-Eyery- thing in the line of paper, whether bags, sacks. news print or whatever it may be, is steadily advancing. What is more, leading manufacturers say the market will continue to get pro excessively worse" until the war is over It is pointed out that certain raw material absolutely essential in the manufacture of paper has adyane- ed all the way from S5 to 200 per cent, and there is a shortage which it seems impossible to overcome. This country, it is claimed, is unable to sup ply the needed raw material which has always come from Europe. On the other hand. South America, @aich heretofore has bought it's paper sup- plies in Europe is now turning to the United States, and N th every car so of paper exported, tl2 marke.s Of this country are hurt ju that much There is no relief in sieht, with the result that prices will continue high and paper scarce.
