Names of the Months.


 The names of the months are Latin in their origin. The particular deriva- tion of each name is as follows: Janu- ary, in honor of Janus, who presided over the beginning of everything; Feb ruary, from the word "febru, to purify, because the purification of yemen took place in that month: March, from the name of the god of war, Mars; April, from "aperio.' to open, because that Is the month when the buds shoot forth; May, from the name of the goddess Maia, mother of Mercury, to whom sacrifices were of- fered the first day of this month: June. from the name of the queen of the gods, Juno; July, named by Marc Antony in honor of Julius Caesar. who was born in this month; August, named by Augustus Caesar in honor of himself, because in this month he celebrated three distinct triumphs, re- duced Egypt to subjection, and put an end to civil war Gin Gaul and the more remote parts of the Roman em- pire the month was known by it's an- cient name of Faust or Aust, the word for harvest); September, October.

The extreme delicacy of many scien. tif1c processes is indicated by a re. port of Dr. Martin Picker, 8 German investigator. that bacteria are affect. ed favorably. or otherwise. by the character of the glass containing the water in which they are suspended. Marked differences in the behavior of cholera germs were noted, according to the kind of glass composing the vessels used. The degree of alkalinity imparted by the glass to the water Is believed to be an important factor in these experiments.

Spray Nozzle Shows Results.

Thousands which decided to take this
year off for, vacation and be merely

so. they would undoubtedly answer,
1--WE were not sprayed"
During the season Q916) summer
spraying demonstrations carried on in
10 Iowa counties by the agricultural
extension department at Ames. At
picking timeL the trees which had
been sprayed three or four times
produced on the average 6 blu. of ap-
piles per tree; unsprayed trees in same
orchard produced 26 blu. of scabby-
wormy fruit per tree. Sprayed trees
thus produced 2.S times as much fruit
per tree and 3.4 more bushels than
tho unsprayed.
i TWAS noticed this year in the or
ehards which were sprayed in 1915,
that the sprayed trees produced more
fruit this year than the trees ynn-
sprayed last year, both being sprayed
this year.
1t does not pay to think about spray
ing at picking time and then forget all
about it during the next growing Sea-
son, says the extension. horticulturists.
Spraying gives accumulative results
and greatly helps to make annual bear
ing fruit trees out of what otherwise
might be just Shade trees"

investigating Prices.

It is a pretty slow day when the
government is not asked to investigate
something. There are always plenty
|of politicians whose time is not fully
occupied who are glad to undertake
these inquiries. Their findings are
published in black covered govern
ment reports which at least make
good business for the junk man.
A petition is now being circulated
by the Housewives League. of New
Orleans, for an investigation Of high
prices. OF course this question most
urgently needs attention. But the
goyernm ent has worked so long over
1T that little can be hoped from this
form of inquiry.
The. causes of high prices are pretty
we'll understood now. They are due
to- such conditions as scarcity of and
high cost of land, price OF labor, and
perhaps more than anything else, to
the unwieldy and inefficient system

voice, as the two democratic con-
crosses have been during his first
term. With the president serving a
second term, won by scratch, con-
ditions may be different. The democ,
racy will be looking forward to 1920
when it will choose a new leader. 1t
will be less patient of restraint. Some
of its members will be jockeying for
position in the presid entail race, hop
ing to land the nomination. 1t is alto
gether probable, therefore, that the
second Wilson admin stration will en-
counter many setbacks within its own
party ranks and must frequently rely
upon republican aid in putting things

Breakers Ahead

Time and, again before March I,
1921, The Journal vetures to predict,
Woodrow Wilson will regret that he
did not abide by that one term plank
in the democratic national platform
of 1912. For there are breakers ahead
of the democratic craft which will re-
quire political seamanship of the
highest grade to avoid.
The president started upon his job
2 of governing the country with large
majority in both houses of congress.
In the election of 1914 this majority
was decreased in the lower house to
twenty-three. In the election Of this
week the lower house majority was
8still further reduced and it may have
been wiped out. In any event the
democratic lead will be uncomforta bly,
small. The history of the last four
years aof the Wilson administration is
not likely. to rival that of Grover
Cleyeiand s. last term. when the presi-
dent was at outs With his own party
and had to wage vigilant warfare in
efforts to get by with his own policies.
Some OF the llarshest of the harsh
things said of Grover Cleveland in
those days were said by democrats in
stead Of republicans.
The republicans were not talking
for campaign purposes when they pre-
dicted hard times for United States
il proper precautions are not taken to
protect the American people from the
consequences Of competition with
cheaply made European articles when
peace comes. 1t will be the task Of the
second Wilson administration to try
to avert the consequences thoughtful
Americans are dreading. If the ex-
pected. happens-if history repeats
itself and the democracy divides in
1921 as it did in 1S93.97, it will be
up to the republican members of the
senate and house to join forces with
the more sober minded democrats in
an effort to save the country from
the consequences of a lack of pre-
paredness for the post-bellum compe-
titiOn With, United States trade that
appears to be certainty.
President Wilson during his. first
term has shown himself adept in
his party followers in con.
gress. In all his experience as "a |
school man in years gone by it is |
scarcely possible the president ever
had class of students SO docile, so |
eager to hear aud heed the masters |
