GRUBS EAT THE STRAWBERRY
Growers Who Have Trouble With Them Should Be Careful In Sc.
 Iecting Land for Plants.

Strawberry growers who are trou- bled with white grub worms should be careful in selecting the land upon which the plants are to be set. Sod land, according to J. R. Watson, en- tomologist to the University of Florida experiment station, is apt to be in- fested with the worms. He advises that the land be given to some crop not injured by the grubs, for two or three years after the sod is turned under. If the grower cannot wait that long he might pasture pigs on the land six months before planting. Pigs root the grubs out and eat them.
 If stable or barnyard manure is used as-fertilizer it might be well to mix with it from 200 to 400 pounds of cy- anamide to the acre. It is possible that cyanamide cannot be obtained. About 100 pounds of sulphur or enough to slightly color the manure might be added The sulphur can be applied be- tween the rows.
 Neither of these substances will kill the grubs, but they act as repellents, and will probably drive the grubs away. The best method, however, is to avoid sod lands.

ALL A MATTER OF THEORY
Scientists Admit They Can Give No
Positive Explanation for the Ac-
ton Of Quicksand.

Many inquirers, hearing or reading
of the dangerous and mysterious quail
tiles of quicksand. have sought in
vain to find the difference between
these and ordinary expanses of sand.
Why do they ingulf the unwary? An
answer to this question is difficult to
obtain and is generally unsatisfactory
when found
1t is thought by some that the diff
ference between ouicksand and other
sand is accidental rather than funda-
mental A certain amount Of unneces-
sary mystery seems to surround this
matter The grains Of quicksand ap-
pear to be in no way extraordinary.
Nevertheless, the fact remains that
sand in certain localities upon coasts
steadily gives way under a load. In
stances are recorded where a cart driv-
an over a wet shore has rapidly dis
appeared below the surface. The gem
eral opinion seems to be that this is
due to a sort Of underlying layer OF clay
or mud. which no doubt in some in

authority. however. points out that an
other factor may be the imprisoning
OF gas between the grains, due TO de-
composition Of organic matter.
1t must also be borne in mind that
any surface in SO good a contact with
wet sand that the air is excluded will
be held fast by atmospheric pressure.
and. further. that an object so situated
and tilted this @ay and that will rap
idly become imhedded and swallowed
up. 1t is By this simple process that
the Goodwin sands have claimed so
many victims. A large percentage Of
Che vessels stranded upon them. how
ever. float safely on on the rising tide,
but now and then one is caught and
doomed Ia the past they have been
responsible for many a shipping trag-
edy. and there is a pathetic interest
attaching to the fact that ribs and
ether remains OF ships long lost and
forgotten sometimes reappear for
time above the surface. Since the ad
vent of steam it is happily a rare oc-
currence for vessel TO be lost upon

Recently he had few minutes be-

get his hair cut in a neighboring bar
bershop. Shortly after he had seated
himself in the chair he noticed that
the barber's dog sat down right next
to the chair and began intently to
watch the barber work
''Pre,ty nice dog, that" said the
genial Moore.

of thousands of dollars in duties that
