THE THINGS THAT MAKE A
SOLDIER GREAT

The things that make a soldier great
and send him out to die,
To face the flaming lannon's mouth
nor ever question why,
Are lilacs by little porch, the row
of tulips red,
The peonies and the pansies, too the
old petunia bed.
The grass plot where his children
play, the roses on the wall;
IT'S these that make a soldier great,
He's fighting for them all.
IT'S not the pomp and pride of kings
that makes a soldier brave;
IT'S not allegiance to the flag that
over him may wave;
For soldiers never fight so well on
land or on the foam
AS when behind the cause they see
the little place called home.
Endanger but that humble street
whereon his children run,
You make a soldier of a man who
never bore gun.
What is it through the battle smoke
the valiant soldier sees?
The little garden far away, the bud
ding apple trees,
The little patch of ground back there,
the children at their play,
Perhaps a tiny mound behind the SIM
pie church of gray,
The golden threat of courage isn't
linked to castle dome,
But to the spot, where'er it be-the
humble spot called home.
And now the lilacs bud again and all
is lovely there,
And homesick soldiers far away know
spring is in the air;
The tulips come to bloom again, the
grass once more is green,
And every man can see the spot
where all his joys have been.
He sees his children smile at him, he
hears the bugle call,
And only death can stop him now
he fighting for them all,
Selected.

Gulf of Mexico, is devoted almost ex-
cluSlyely to onion ranches.
1t is estimated that the Texas
onion crop last year slightly exceeded
5000 carloads. That's enough to per-
fume pretty much the entire coun-
try from Washington to Alaska. To
move this mammoth crop required the
service of 100 locomotives pulling
fifty cars each.
rhe onion, in one or more of its
several forms, has been in use
Throughout all time of which we have
any reliable history. 1t is authenti-
cally claimed that the original home
of the onion was in southern Asia or
In the countries surrounding or bor-
dering on the Mediterranean sea
Away back in the early days of his
tory the onion was highly esteemed
as an article of food, also as pre-
ventive of thirst while natives were
on the march or crossing the des-
erts.
Very few persons know that the
onion occupies a place in the Bible.
Yet 1t was mentioned at one time
back in biblical days with consider
able Eehemence and longing. 1t was al
the period when the 10000 people
that Moses was leading grew tired of
dining on nothing but mama and
Wauted change of diet
In the eleventh chapter and fifth
paragraph of Numbers is found this
reference to onions: I'VE remember
the fish We did eat in Egypt freely;
The cucumbers and the melons and
the leaks, and the onions and the
gariick." a further pursuance of that
portion of the Scriptures discloses the

nearly resembled the natural food or

had been prepared by the experts Oh

BY boiling the sugar with Win 'antarip wbich
acid glucose was iv tor'neu and which
does not crystnllize. thus making
sirup which lasts for weeks without
deterioration. Then by the additloh
of very small proportion or afsen,
ate. the ants would not De ffPeuea Pit,,na
on account Of its immediate killing
qualities. Honey was added Simply
to attract the ants, which they seem
to prefer to all other foods iney
have been frequently caught robplng
bee hives. The proper strength oa .ne
poison was a hard matter to deter
mine and was only arrived at aater
several years of experimentation. Inc
poison was finally determineu 'nat
would require several days 10 klli tne
ants. This poison was carried 10 the me
nests by the ants and fed 10 INC
queens and young.
In preparing and placing the poison,
Mr. Ayres utilized the services OF ten
seniors and juniors from the ieNas
Agricultural and Mechanical Goiiese,
in addition to the regular forces Oh
the state department of agriculture.
Six-ounce tin cans were used. They
were crimped on each side and coV-
cred by lid and hung by wire 10 the
trees. On the inside was small
sponge and a gill OF the poison. Ihey
were placed all over the infecteu
cities, including sills and pillars OF
the residences. and high enough up
in the trees to prevent interference
from animals and childrn. The cans
Were weather proof and proved so
Interesting that all ants quit the
houses within twelve hours and com
menced feeding on the poison. IN
only remote instances did the natural
food prove more attractive than the
poison. The first effect of the poison
was noticeable twelve days later,
when the ants began to walk slower
and became wobbly, then fell over
dead.
1t is safe and reasonable conclu-
sion that if this plan were to be fol~
lowed all over the United Stated the
country would soon be rid of ants of
every description that annually de-
stroy millions of dollars worth or
food of various kinds.
