CORN INSECT FOUND
BY MONTANA FARMER


Miles City, Aug. 13.-The county ag-
ricultnrist was called ont to r. II. Ben
nett's farm to look over Mr.. Benefits
corn field, which is being damaged
slightly by an insect. Mr.. Warrington
was inclined to think. upon n thorough
investigation. that the damage was due
to the corn root aphis.
The eggs from which these insects
are Matched are laid in the fall. The
little brown ants. that are so COM
mon over the fields. carry the eggs
over winter in their quarters. When
the insects are Matched in the spring
the ants transfer them to the roots of
the smartweed or corn plants. The
insect passes it's entire life cycle under
the ground, but as rule causes very
little damage. Mr.. Warrington was not
able to find any corn root aphis, but
some indications of their presence was
in evidence.

Save Your EYesiqht.

"a great many men who are well
enough informed on other topics do
not know the first principles OF how to
conserve their eyesight," DR.. Eugene
L. Fisk is quoted in Worlds Work.
They may be conscious of eye strain
and yet unconsciously go right on do
ing many things to increase that strain,
things such as these-reading a news
paper on jiggly street car, working
with a light directly behind them or
directly in their faces, reading or work
ing in too bright glare or in dim or
Pickering illumination. They do not
realize that they might well limit their
allowance of moving pictures. They
do not know the harm in too brilliant
desk light. They buy worthless pat
ent nostrums for the eye and have a
positive dread about adopting glasses
The price they pay for all this is often
extremely dear 1t ranges from con-
slant physical discomfort to loss Ct

Desert Of Sahara.

At one time, some twoscore years
ago, some Englishmen proposed to dig
a canal on the northwest coast Of At
RIGA, south Of Morocco, to admit the
waters Of the Atlantic into the Sahara
desert. It was argued that a great
inland sea would thus be created and
that ocean vessels might steam into
Africa and pick up cargoes along the
western Sudan. This fine idea was
based upon the prevalent notion that
most Of the desert surface was much
below sea level. It was discovered
later that most Of the desert stands
high above the sea. The French, who
have been the greatest explorers Of the
desert, have corrected other false ideas
about the desert The most conspic-
uous and persistent Of these errors has
been the notion that the desert Is
vast area Of sand. The French have
proved that this is not So In fact, only
about one-hfth Of the Sahara Is COW
cred with sand.
