Professor Enlists as Teamster

Rev. G. w. Stephenson reports hav-
ing received letter from one of his
sons who is a member of the faculty of
the u. of NJ in which it is stated that
the professor at the head of the de-
partment of history has resigned his
splendid position, enlisted in the army
as private, and is now driving team.
The full measure of this patriotic sacri.
flee will be better understood when it is
known that the professor was about to
start on a pleasure trip through the
west when he received letter from a
fellow professor in an eastern college
stating that the latter had enlisted and
urging the former to do likewise. The
result was that the Michigan..man gave
up everything to serve his country in
time of need

Teacher Wins Recognition

Miss Lily Farnsworth has been en-
gagged by the school board of Pine Run
to teach their school for the ensuing
year. This will make the fifth consec-
utive year of Miss Farnsworth's service
in Pine Run School which fact in itself
is the strongest testimonial that could
be given to the valuable and satisfac-
tory character of her work. For the
larger part of the time she has had
more than fifty pupils, a larger number
than most teachers can care for prop
erly, Notwithstanding which she has
maintained fine spirit of industry and
enthusiasm in her school. In recog-
milton of her faithful and successful
work the school board has granted Miss
Farnsworth an increase in salary to six
ty dollars per month

From M. A. c. comes information
that the cold, damp weather which has
prevailed this spring is especially favor
able for the growth of insect pests
which are likely to destroy quantities
of fruit and vegetables. Commenting
on this danger the authorities say:
For this reason, it would be well this
season for farmers to at least be pre-
pared for plant lice on fruits, garden
vegetables and ornamentals. and for
cut worms on various crops. Special
watch should be kept for the latter OF
spring -plowed grass sod.
Cut-worms can be controlled by pois.
oned bran pait, the formula for which
can be procured by writing into the
college for Bulletin 73. Plant lice car
be checked by spraying with a solution
of 40 per cent nicotine sulphate, diluted
at the rate of one pint to 100 gallons o.
soap suds, or one ounce to about si'
gallons of soapy water. Use abou

Street Sweeping Dangerous

Those who use street sweepngs to
fertilize gardens should avoid manure
that contains oil or tar. Either of
these substances is harmful to plants,
specialists in the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture warns. Sweepings
from tarred pavements or oiled roads
are likely to contain them. Oil drop
pings from motor cars often mix with
such waste also. If sweepings are col
lected with some care and before rain
or water from street sprinklers have
reached them and washed out the ele-
ments of fertilizing value, they can be
used advantageously.
