Too Much of Strength of Plant Taken
Up by Worthless Sprouts-Break
Them OFF Close.

Too many suckers allowed to grow
from the roots of thc raspberry hills
will take too much of the strength

accident to some IF them. Then break
off all remaining sprouts that start,

WHAT GYPSY MOTH LIVES ON
CaterpilIars Must Have Some Decidu.
Gus Foliage for Food-They Are

(By W. E. BRITTON. State Entomologist

Station.)
The damage caused by the gypsy
moth consists in stripping trees, shrubs
and other plants Of their leaves by the
caterpillars. Formerly 1t was sup.
posed that the catorpillars would at
tack almost any kind of foliage, ash
being, perhaps, the most nearly immune
of any of our broad-leaved deciduous
trees. But more recent Investigations
at the parasite laboratory, Melrose
Highlands, Mass, conducted under the
direction of Mr.. A. F. Burgess, show

that is needed to properly prepare the
soil for growing crops. The humus
increases the water holding capacity
of the soil several times and puts it
in a loose open porus condition so
that air, water. and plant roots can
easily come into contact with every
grain of it. The humus also prevents
the soil from packing after heavy rains
ana furnishes food for the bacteria
or microscopic life that makes the
plant food available for plants. 1t
matters not how much plant food the
soil may contain, it will not yield max
imum crops unless bacteria are pres
ent to make the plant food available
for crops. The number of bacteria
in the soil closely follows the amount
of humus in 1t.
1t is generally advisable to break
the land in the fall ard winter for the
following reasons: First, we are not
as busy in the late fall and winter as
we are in the spring second, the veSe-
table matter is turned under to decay;
third, insolub'e plant food is brought
to the surface where the frost and air
can change ii into soluble plant food;
fourth, the soil is rough and loose so
that 1t will drink in the rain that falls.

we can use the better styles of
two and three horse turning plows OF
disc plows. The gasoline engine trac.
ton pillow will DO more and probably
tetter work. but the average small
farmer cannot afford to own one.
When we are unable to break our
land during the fall and winter, we
should break it early in the spring
for the following reasons: First, 20
save water. 1t has been found by
experiments that unbroken land per-
mits the water in the soil to escape
much faster than does broken land
Second, to prevent clCds; third, to per-
nit good settling Of the soil before
planting time. In the early spring it
is be to use the disc p'ow, so set

Profes sional Women in Russia.

From the middle of the last century
the women of Russia have asserted
their eagerness for professional train
ing. Teaching, surgery, medicine, and
government service have attracted the
greatest number. When the medical
schools were closed to them, they went
to Switzerland and other foreign coun-
tries. A Russian girl took doctors
degree at Zurich in 1867. In the early
seventies the admission of women to
medical courses became settled prac-
tice in Russia. In 1876, woman sur
geons in numbers distinguished them
selves at the front in the Serbian
Turkish war; the same distinguished
service has been given by them in the
Russo-Japanese war and in the pres
ent conflict. Today woman physicians
are as prominent as men, and in some
cities there are many more female
than male dentists. More than 62
per cent Of the teachers in the zemstvO
schools are women, and the census Of
1897 showed that there were four wom-
en- to every five men in the state and
public services.-Richard Washburn

How Crying Helps the Baby.

Physicians who specialize in chill
dren's diseases are pretty well agreed
that there are many occasions when
crying Is Of decided benefit to babies,
and that the harder and longer they
cry at such times the better.
The benefit that comes from crying
Is largely the result of the change that
takes place in child's breathing. AS
the baby bowls and sobs, it's expira-
tons are prolonged sometimes for as
much as half minute, and when they
are interrupted it is by very short In
