PASSING or THE GREEN BAG.
Old-Ti,ne Depository Of Legal Papers
Succeeded by Portfolio.

Cincinnati Times-Star: What has be-
come of the green bag? Every lawyer
who has case or who would like TO
have one now carries a neat portfolio
that is supposed to contain petitions.
croespetitions, answers replications,
demurrers and all the other things
and whose blank spaces they fill in,
according TO the requirements Of litiga-
ton. II is a sort Of sample case OF their
wares that they carry about with them
And II is also a kind Of travelling shingle
announcing their profession.
But how less impressive the portfolio
is than the old bulging green bag which
was the depository OF legal documents
when we had real lawyers who wrote
long briefs in long hand instead of the
scrawny affairs that now are printed
or typewriter in compact form. The
green bag suggested Daniel Webster in
the White murder case or William i.
Evarts In the Impeachment trial OF
Andrew Johnson. giants who deal In hu-
man sentiments instead of cold calcu-
lation for law-evading corporations. And
what a useful purpose the green bag
served among the lesser lights of the
legal fraternity! No inquisitive stran-
ger ever peered into II 10 determine
its contents. No matter how suspic-
iously bulging II might be. IL was let as
severely alone as IL It were Pandora's
box The fact that II contained the
for the home instead of por-
tentous legal documents was an unpro-
fessional secret shared by the lawyer
and his housewife.
Perhaps that is the reason some Of
our lawyer friends have been so quick TO
adopt the portfolio in lieu Of the more
capacioas depository. No more do they
have % minglc law with vegetables on

CONTROLLING BOLLwORM.
Fan Flowing and Poisoning Most II.
fective Methods.

Methods which are most practical and
economical for controlling the bollwor1n
are fall plowing and poisoning. OF
these two the cheapest and most efficient
Is fall plowing.
Bollwor1ns enter the soil in fields
where they have developed. After ar.
ranging their tunnels and caverns for
protection they transform to an inactive
stage. II the soil is impervious to
moisture they wiz pass through the
winter very comfortably. II. however,
the ground is in such condition as to
absorb moisture and the winter becomes
sufficiently cold to freeze to depth OF
six or eight inches. the bollworm will
perish.
Soil that is plowed before freezing
weather will be in better condition to
absorb moisture than ground which has
IA hard crust on it, The vegetation
that may be turned under In the fall
will be saved as humus to good advan-
tage. The contraction and expansion
of moisture in the soil during the cold
winter weather will aid in liberating
the stored-up chemicals. Consequently
fall plowing will pay from many differ
ent standpoints in all localities where
the soil and crop conditions permit such
q practice.
Practically all of the above advan-
tages viii be lost if plowing is delayed
until after the cold weather has passed.
