EFFECT OF INSECTS ON WAR
Relationship Is Closer Than Most Peo'
pie Realize, According to U. s.
Bureau of Entomology.

Entomology, that branch Of zoology
which treats of insects, has much
closer relation to war problems than
most people realize, and the bureau Of
entomology has asked that pamphlets,
circulars, posters, leaflets, etc, pertain
ing to war phases Of the field OF
science he sent to its office in Wash
ington, so that they can be assembled
and classified for future reference, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine.
Among the questions that properly
come under this head and have a bear
ing on the war are those pertaining to
the attacks of insects on crops, the
prevention of mosquitoes, insects in
food and water, and so on. While
many publications will not possess ma
terlal of special scientific value, all
will at least have historic interest.

Women Will Secure Schools.

Prof. S. w. Sheriff., state superin-
tendent of public instruction, when
asked to what extent the schools
would be affected under the army
draft, said. "Of course we are going
to lose some teachers; just how many
l cannot say, but a considerable num-
Der. However, we have many noble
women to take their places. We may
also in some instances have to fill
the places of principals with women,
but just in what numbers l can't say.
Speaking of the work of women in the
schools, l am reminded to say that in
the counties and districts where the
school term is only five months these
noble women have volunteered to
teach one extra month at half pay,
making a six months term They
will put this matter up to the patrons
of the schools and ir they are willing
to pay the half salary the extra month
will be added"

Golf Lingo Made Clear.

Henry's father was q golf enthusi.
asst; therefore Henry knew all about
the game One time he asked:
"Henry, why is 1t that men who play
golf always yell fore instead of look
out or some such thlng?"
Henry thought for a second time be-
fore an inspiration came from looking
at his young sister, who was diligently
getting her arithmetic.
"You see." he replied, ut takes too
long to yell 'toot-toot,' and that sounds
so much like 'two-two' that they Just

increment of 685,000 men for the great

Memphis are to furnish 941 men; Da-
wilson and Nashville, ESQ men; Knox
and Knoxville 281, and Hamilton and
Chattanooga 825 men. These four
large counties are credited with to-
tai Of 1878 enlistments in the state
guard and the regular army up to July
l. Altogether the state contributed
the regular army up to July l, and
thus it will be seen the four largest
counties supplied almost half of the
enlistments in the guard and the army
up to that date. The quota was based
on estimated population Of counties of
men of the military draft age, credits
were then given for all men who en-
listed in the national guard and the
regular army up to July 1, and the net
quota arrived at.

humor From British Tar.

An incident illustrative of the quiet
honor of the British tar Is thus de-
scribed:
In ModroS harbOr in the eastern
Mediterranean, coxswain Of the navy
ran his picket boat into trawler and.
knowing his error, listened with dis
ciplinary patience while the irate mas.
ter expressed his views on royal naval
picket boats in a wealth Of invective.
The silent coxswain pushed off, but,
looked up at one of the crew and
shouted:

Sheep Killing Dogs are Expensive.

If the legislature should pass law
taxing the owner of every dog in Ten
nessee $3.50 it would result in raising
more than 100000 in extra taxes,
according to Col. George p Woollen,
United States collector of customs and
formerly state treasurer.
Col. Woollen has carefully gathered
statistics showing that there are about
100000 dogs liz Tennessee, major
ity of them worthless, sheep-killing an
imals. not worth their keeping.
He says the average cost of feeding
a dog is about S34 year. Add this
amount to the number of dogs if all
were fed, and it is shown that a great
waste is fostered by the people.
