Plant Diseases
 Are Brought Here By Import Trade

Washington, D. C., Dec. 7.-One hundred and ninety-three different kinds of insects which might prove hurtful to American crops and 116 plant diseases of similar significance were detected by State and Federal inspection during the last fiscal year on plants and plant products offered for import into the United States, ac- cording to the report of the Federal Horticultural Board of the U. s. De- partment of Agriculture. Of the in- sects, IA were scale insects such as pear scale, though they range from scales found on orchids, coconut, and bamboo, to other forms found on wis.,
 taria, camellias, hemlocks and pines. In addition, nests of the brown tail moth, egg masses of the European tussock moth, pupae of the dagger moth, cocoons of the pine sawf1y were discovered. Of interest was the find- ing of 8 fourth potato weevil in the United States, which was discovered in Irish potatoes imported from the Andes. Of the diseases, citrus canker was found in a number of shipments, and the finding of powder scab on wild potatoes from the slope of the Andes is taken to indicate clearly it is the nome of this disease of the po- tato. es Z,. 4

Rubber Truck Tires
 Get Hard Tests In
 Mexican Road Usage

'Whole trains of trucks used TOT supplying the United States Army at the various places along the Mexican border are equipped with United States Solid Truck Tires exclusively" said MT. c. J. Welch, Manager or the Truck Tire Department of the Onlteo States Tire Company.
 1T have just received reports that these tires are giving more than satls- factory service, notwithstanding the terrific wear to which these tires are continually put. The character of the country through which they have to go is such that ordinary solid truck tires could not possibly give but very small part of the service that United States Solid Truck Tires are delivering with satisfactory consistency. For the most part, where there are any roads, the surface condition is unbelievably gritty and stony; and where there are no roads, the conditions are a thou sand times worse. Yet in spite of all this, United States Solid Truck Tires are giving mileage that would be sat isfactory even in comparatively smooth city traffic.

A LONELY CHILD.

Willie T., writes: "I am little boy twelve years old and please helI me. I am a orphan living with a rich old maid aunt and I'd rather sell pa- pers and live in cellar or do any other kind of a job. What makes me so miserable is that I have to be dressed up all day long every day, nev- CT am allowed to play with the fel- lows. She won't let me play base ball, be a boy scout, have any kind of sport such as other fellows have I'm dead tired of it, I'm thinking o1 beating it to some place, any place Won't you write to her to let me out and I'll be your friend as long as ] live"
 gladly give Willie's letter space regretting, however, that there is much railing against aunt, which it was pru- dent to omit. It seems to be a case of mistaken kindness on the part of the wealthy spinster who is attempting to rear. a youngster in the way in which he should go. Giving Willie a home and clothing him handsome ly are not the only things for his well fare. A healthy, hearty lad needs outdoor life-and plenty of it-where he can scream to the, extent of his lungs, in the meantime filling them with fresh air. He needs enjoyment to make boyhood worth while-games

 STREET ALTERATIONS.

Miss A. writes: ''I am a young wo- man of 23, employed for several months. I have met while returning home a very fine-looking man who has been so attracted to me that he has begun recently to raise his hat, smile and bow. I have returned the bow. A few evenings ago, happened to drop in at the home of an old friend whom I had not visited for years and I heard she had married and lived at that address. Imagine my amaZement when in walked, my admirer, whom she introduced to me as her husband. He insisted on escorting me to the car. When we were quite by ourselves he cautioned me against mentioning to her one word of our delightful f1irta- ton, as he called it, adding that it need not be broken off just because | had discovered he was married. He requested me to go to the theatre with him and would not take no for an an swer, saying no one would know. He seems unhappy and dissatisfied with my friend and greatly enamored of me. What course shall I pursue?''

A FAIR BENEFACTOR.

In the months to come 1t Is proba- ble that the British '"Tommies'' will have cause for heartfelt gratitude to Miss Mary Davies, who has been em- ployed as bacteriologist for the Rob- ert w. Goelet Research Fund. About year ago Miss Davies inoculated herself with gangrene bacilli in or der to demonstrate the efficacy of Taylor's preparation. Since then she has been at work on experiments de- signed to make cloth antiseptic under any and all conditions, and recent report from Paris declares that her efforts have been crowned with suc- cess. It is said that clothing for the British soldiers is now being subject ed to the Davies ahtiseptic process, and if tests on a large scale are as indicate, the mortality rate among the British wounded is certain to be greatly diminished. As is we'll known, a clean wound not in vital spot heals quickly and completely, and it is infection rather than the wound itself that is responsible for the great majority of deaths or amputations due to such wounds. Pieces of dirty cloth shot into the body constitute in war the most prolific cause of in- lection. Cloth treated by the process invented by Miss Davies, is said to remain sterile for months, although the uniforms are subjected to all forms of dirt and germs. Another virtue claimed for the processed gar- ments, and c.ie which will be hailed with joy by the soldiers, is that body lice will not finger on a person wear ing such clothing. In the trenches body lice are almost universal, and any scheme for eradicating these pests would in itself cause the Tom mics to rise en masse and bless the name of Mary Davies. The young woman scientist Is connected with the Ris-O Organeis hospital, of which Dr. Joseph A. Blake, the noted American surgeon, is the chief.

THE SUBMARINE.

A shadow drifts through the sea-foor
 waves. Where the old armada sleeps, Breaking the hush of those ancient
 graves, Where the war-god his lone watch
 keeps. For them there was sunshine aglint
 on the sea, The .heave of the hood-tide swells; In their white winged ships they wan
 dered free, With the memory of last farewe1ls Gladly and gayly they went to their
 doom, With the f1utter of banner bright; Voiceless they sank in the battle
 gloom, With the wreckage adrift from the
 fight. A bug1e sounded it's Charge through
 the night Their battle-songs answered its call. With banner af1utter before their Can you measure the bliss of their
 fall? So their curses they heap on the gray
 submarine, When that shadowy ship glides by An assassin that turks in the seaweed
 green, And hides from the light of the
 sky. They met the foe in a fair, open
 fight, Tn the dauntless days of the yore- Now wolf-ships wait in the shadows of I ! night, When the battle-f1eet sails from the shore.

 home seems almost too good to be true. She is to behold, too, the wo- man who holds the happiness of her son in her hands-the wife who shares her boy's love with her, who is first in

This is the one day in the year that belongs to the old folks. There's nothing so dear to their hearts as the family gathering. Why shouldn't it be?

DE PROFUNDIS.

There come tense moments in the lives of men When they are moved to ponder once again On mighty matters, with big mean ings fraught. All lesser happenings become, as naught And take their natural and proper place AS trifies in those moments when we face z Big issues; and the tongue cannot give speech At times like these. Of what avail to preach Preparedness? The time for that has past We know the folly of delay at last. And so we gathered round with bated breath And solemn thoughts, and silence as of death; As, sliding to our cellar through a hole, i We watched the passage of a
