county Jail last night. When arraign-
ed before Judge Miller at 10 o'clock
Wednesday morning to answer to the
charge of taking $50 under false pre-
lenses, he was unable to furnish the

Hetlund Charges Crime.
1t was Charles M. Hetlund of Fargo,
who swore to the warrant for the ar

Weiss $50 to act as state deputy COM

amount was necessary. Weiss told
the court he took the payment more as
bond for Hetlund's work in view of
the fact certain collections were to be
made. =

The Tomato Aphis.

The most serious pest of tomato
plants that has ever appeared in the
State is devasting entire fields in
Somerset County. The insect is
small green or pink louse that first
clusters on the under side of the
leaves, eventually covering the leaf
and blossoms, buds and the tender
stalks, sucking out the plant juices
causing the plant to wither and die.
The insects when full grown are
about 1s inch long and many possess
wings though the greatest number
are without wings and considerably
smaller.
Control can be affected by spray
ing the plants with Black Leaf 40 or
other 40 per cent solutions of nico-
tine, used at the rate of " pint to
so gallons of water in which 2
pounds of soap has been dissolved.
Use as forceful and fine a spray as
can be obtained, spraying upward
under the leaves as well as down.
ward. Spray rods should be equip
ped with an 81" and a nipple with
the nozzle screwed on the latter, to
facilitate spraying upward.
The weather conditions have been
especially favorable for the multipli-
cation of the pest all over the State
and tomato growers in other sec
tions, particularly Worcester, Dor
cheste and Wicomico Counties
should watch their fields carefully.
Reports of the pest should be made
to the Entomologist, College Park.
Maryland, who will be glad to detail
men to assist in control.
Reports from the Eastern Shore of
Virginia, which We have been unable
to verify, tell of entire fields of pota-
toes being ruined as though scorched
by fire. In some places the yields
have been extremely low, due in
part, no doubt, to the feeding OF the
aphids. Potatoes in Somerset Coun~
ty are so far advanced at this time
that there is little probability OF

YOUR MENTAL MACHINE.
Shut OF lta Power at Night After .
DAVIS Hard Work.

Shut OF lts Power at Night After
Days Hard Work.
It is a great thing to learn-to shut
on the mental steam when you quit
work. What would you think Of fac
tory manager who would leave all OF
his power turned on after the operators
had left the factory, the delicate ma
chinery running everywhere, pounding
itself to pieces, grinding out its delicate
bearings without producing anything?
Many of us do not turn off our men
tai power after we are through pro
ducing or creating for the day We
carry our business home, take 1T to bed
with us, think, plan, worry and waste
precious energy in all sorts of ways,
10 superfluous thinking, foolish worry
ing that produces nothing, but grinds
out the exquisitA' mental machinery
and units it for the next days work.
It Is a great art to learn to shut off
power when through our days work,
so that we can oil our mental ma
chinery, refresh our minds and recu-
perate ourselves, so that we can go to
the next days work completely rein
v1gorated.
Many men seem to think that they
are accomplishing something If they
keep their minds on business even
when not at work, but they really ac-
complish less than nothing because
they are wasting precious mental en-
ergy, the power for concentration, the
vigor, the focusing of the mind, which
is imperative for creating purposes
