THE MOOSE N 4 ROW
John n. Parler and Seven 0thera
Walked Out Of Meeting.


Chicago, June 26.-The expect
ed split in the Progressive COM
mittee ranks came today after the
committee had been in session for
little more than an hour. John N.
Parker demanded that the doors
be opened and the committee SEES
sion made public. This demand
came after several Progressive
leaders had stated they had had
confidential talks with Mr..
Hughes. e."
These leaders said Mr.. Hughes
would make his position clear and
emphatic on every issue before the
country in his formal acceptance
speech, but before that time they
said they did not feel at, liberty to
discuss their conversation with
Mr.. Hughes publicly.
Parker, however, demanded
that the doors be opened at once.
Leaders said if the committee de-
sired, as they ought to, to know
Mr.: Hughes view the committee
would have to remain in executive
session until they were through.
Parker insisted on his motion
for an open session. 1t was defeat
ed overwhelmingly. Whereupon
Parker gave a signal and eight
members of the committee walked
out.
| Parker came out red with an
ger. He said he would not 60
back until the sessions were
opened.
The committee continued undis-
turbed in session until the ''con-
versations" were related. Then
the doors were opened and the re-
bellious "third ticket crowd came
back. y
Among them We're Mr.. Parker,
Brainbridge Colby of New York,
who nominated Roosevelt in the
Progressive convention; Burton
Vance Of Kentucky, Judge Nor.
toni Of st. Louis, j. NJ. fngersof1
of Idaho, A. T. Moon of Utah and
H. F. Cochems of Wisconsin.
A long letter from Roosevelt
declining the nomination was
read. He said that the Progress
sive party had accomplished the
purpose for which it was organ.
ICED, but didn't state what that
purpose was, and as a party has
come to an end and urged the
delegates to support Hughes. \
large part of the letter was de
voted to vicious abuse of Presl
dent Wilson and the democratic
administration.
| Bitterness crept out the minute
the national committee met. The
small minority fighting for a com
plete third party ticket challenged
some of the proxies that had been
sent to the meeting on the grounds
that the committeeman who had
given them already had joined the
Republican party. This led to hot
words between Matthew Hale OF
Massachusetts, and John McGrath,
Colonel Roosevelt s secretary.
Mr.. Parker gave out telegram
he had sent to Colonel Roosevelt
and Governor johnson in which
he declared that the Progressives
shonld maintain complete or
ganization and ticket and that he
never would support Mr.. Hughes
In this telegram which Mr.. Park.
err evidently believed would off
set the Roosevelt communication,
Mr.. Parker expressed great conf
dence in Mr.. Roosevelt, Mr.. Per-
kins and other Progressive lead
ers, but he said they were making

How one teacher of 60 pupils in q

forests of North Carolina, succeeded
in getting her pupils interested in prac-
teal agriculture with a pig and less
than an acre of uncultivated land, is
told in a report Of one of the field work.

A farm paper offered a pure-bred
pig as a prize for securing certain

parents Of her pupils and succeeded
In selling enough subscriptions to win
the pig. When the pig arrived tho pen
was already built by the SCHOOLGIRL

ception. The parents were invited and
talks on pig-raising were made. The
rest Of the day was spent in driving
around to some of the best pig farms in
the county where various kinds of live
stock were scored and discussed.

The pupils learned that pig could
not thrive entirely on scraps from
lunches and occasional ears Of corn.
An interested member of the school
committee offered the use Of his team
and implements and the pupils started
to work cleaning the forest land to
use as a forage pasture. They then
planted crops Of rye, wheat, rape, and
grass to afford the pig grazing plots of
green forage. A cold frame was also
put in and cabbage plants were grown
for sale, the money thus realized being
turned over to buy whatever additional
feed was necessary to keep the young
animal.
AS q result of the interest aroused,
taxpayers and members of the school
board have given their support to the
establishment Of small demonstration

and the county agent is to visit the
school each week. Since the pig was
brought into the school less than a
year ago, the membership Of the coun
ty pig club has more than tyebled.

The case against Reverend Rasmus-

church of Denmark. He was sued on
the ground that lie does not believe in
the supernatural conception and the
divinity of Christ, but the courts exon
Grated him. The government has ap-
pointed him to Il charge, but the bisll-
ops refuse to ratify his appointment
according to law. But it did not take
the church authorities long to find a
Way out of the difficulty. The bish-
ops have agreed to ask the rigsdag to
change the law so that it will not be
necessary for them to endorse the APP

reason OF other is not favored by them

the wish Of the bishops without much

CHERRY LEAF-BEETLE
Recommendations for Control of
Periodical Pest.
Outbreak in 1915 Was by Far Worst
That Fruit Growers Have Yet
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Recon-.
mend Nicotine SuIphate.

(From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
The appearance in enormous num-
bers of the cherry leaf-beetle in the
spring Of 1915 necessitated a study Of
this insect, the results Of which have
just been published by the department
in a professional paper, Bulletin No.
352, 1.-The Cherry Leaf-Beetle- Peri
odically Important Insect Enemy Of
Cherries" by r. A. Cushman and
Dwight Isely. The 1915 outbreak was
by far the worst that fruit growers
have yet experienced. That year the
beetle proved destructive throughout
the greater part of New York, Pennsyl-
vania, and northern West Virginia, and
also in the northern part of lower
Michigan, where cherry-growing is
very extensive. The entomologists
who studied the insect at that time
now recommend that for peach or
chards nicotine sulphate be used, and
for cherry trees sweetened arsenate of
lead. These are the only two cultivat-
ed fruits that the beetle attacks. Sweet
cherry and plum are not in danger
and the thicker-leaved varieties of the
sour cherry are much less seriously
injured than the thin-leaved kinds.
The nicotine sulphate used in the
experiments consisted of solution of
40 per cent nicotine sulphate, part to
600 parts Of water, to which was add
ed 6sh-oil soap at the rate Of pounds
to so gallons Of liquid. This spray
does not cause the same injury to
peach foliage that is likely to follow
the use Of strong mixtures of arsenate
Of lead. 1t is, however, only tenn
poralily effective, and an application
one day does not prevent an invasion
of the orchard on the following day.
For cherry trees arsenate Of lead
must be applied at rate of not less
than s pounds to so gallons Of water.
The addition of molasses at the rate
of IA gallons to so gallons of the
mixture makes the spray much more
effective, but, on the other hand, the
addition Of this swoetening allows the
spray to be more easily washed off by
rains. In favorable weather, however,
the effect of the spray is continuous.
AS the beetles feed on the under
side Of the leaves, care must be taken
to cover these with the poison spray.
In some instances it may be necessary
to spray only young cherry trees or
older trees Of the thin-leaved varieties.

NORWAY.

The contamination of the national
strike is a great credit to the organ
lied laborers of Norway. Two years
ago the storthing threatened to pass
a law making arbitration compulsory
In case of labor controversies. A ma
tional strike was ordered as a means
Of threatening the storthing. The
strike was successful. The bill was
not passed. Now similar bill was up
again. The labor unions resorted to
the same tactics as before. But this
time they failed. The bill was passed.
AS soon as this was known the strik-
ers went back to work, admitting that
they were defeated. Everything from
first to last was done in perfect order
The laborers feel that the rich of the
country are getting richer at speed
which almost takes the breath away
from some of them, while the laborers
are living from hand to mouth on ac-
count Of the unexampled high cost of
living. Now the laborers can point to
the storthing and say: "You are re-
sponsible for our starvation!" The tao
tics of the socialistic labor unions have
made such favorable impression up
on the great mass of the people that
it seems not unlikely that the social
lists will control the next storthing.
Says the Socialdemokraten on this
subject: 1T has been burnt into the
annals of the history of Norway that
in tho critical voor ~ 1O1e +bo N,on
Wegfan labor class was in combat not
only with the employers but also with
a majority of the storthing, which,
taking advantage of the situation,
passed class law against the labor
organizations"
