PLAYMATES IN EGYPT.
Continued from page 5S2)

Even as he spoke, Rachel's BROTH
cr rushed into the house. Father"
he cried, and his face was white with
awe, "it is as the man of God hath
said; for the Lord hath passed
through the midst of Egypt and the
firstborn in every house of Egypt
lies dead-from the firstborn in the
house Of Pharaoh to the firstborn in
the hut of his meanest slave. For
the Lord hath slain the firstborn
son from every household of Egypt;
only the eldest of the sons of Israel
hath He saved alive"
Then the father and mother and
brother of Rachel praised the God
Of their fathers that He had not af-
flicted them also, and that the last
Of His 81 GINS had come to pass for
now they were sure that the time
was at hand when He would lead
them out of Egypt. But little Ra
chel hid her face in her mothers lap
and wept bitterly for she knew that
her playfellow. Pethis, was the first
born son of his father and that she
would never look upon his face
again.-Jewish Exponent.

General Fund Shrinking.

With practically all railroad taxes
in, the general fund of the state treas
ury continues to shrink. The balance
in the fund is $3,288,411.61. On May /,
1915, the balance was 81 ,444 ,312.33, a
difference of $1,155,9 00.72 over these
figures.
There are no incoming revenues Of
the state that will make up this deficit.
In fact the fund will receive a serious
setback when the authorizations from
the state highway commission start to
come in. The legislature passed a bill
appropriating 100000 for highway
purposes, the money to come out of
the general fund. Most Of this money
will be drawn from the state treasury
in September and October, for road
work done during the summer, al
though some of it has been spent al
ready.

Cranberry Inspection.

III iHSpcCtfOn
Under the new horticultural inspec-
| ton law, passed by the last legisia-
| ture, ]. G. Sanders, state entomologist
of the department of agriculture, is es-
tablishing, for the first time in the
history of the cranberry industry in
Wisconsin, inspection of cranberry
vines.
The state entomologist il requiring
inspection of vines offered for sale for
propagation. and vines which are to
be moved to new location for start
ing cranberry boys.
Several complaints have been filed
with the state entomologist that dis
eases were being transported from old
cranberry sections to new paintings.
The common cranberry disease
known as false blossom leaf spot
known as exotasidium, and a top wilt
of the new growth known as schero-
! TINA. and the black-headed worm,
sometimes known as the 'freworm,"
will be controlled by these inspection
measures, and efforts will be made to
prevent their introduction into new
paintings.
Express companies and railroads
are forbidden by state law to accept
shipments of nursery stock, including
small fruits, unless they bear an of1l-
cial inspection tag.
Cranberry vines for propagation
should be cleaned of moss, weeds or
grasses, as well as being free from IN
furious diseases and insects.
The inspection of cranberry boys
will be done free of cost for the appll-
| cant each year, provided application
is made by July IL to the state ento-
| mologist, state capitol, Madison.
o. G. Made, cranberry experiment
station, Grand Rapids, has been ap-
