mass to a stiff dough by adding low
grade molasses or strip, preferably
molasses, and scatter the mixture
broadcast in small pieces throughout
the infested field.
In case the worms are not discov-
cred until they have begun to travel
in mass, usually they can be Destroy
ed by furrowing or ditching complete
ly around the infested area.
Summary Of Control Measures for the
Army Worm.
1. Watch fields of growing grass
and grain carefully, especially the
meadows, during the spring and early
summer months, to discover the army
worms before they become full grown
and spread over the entire farm.
When the worms are discovered at
work, do not lose minute, but attack
them vigorously by means of the meas
ures outlined in foregoing paragraphs.
2. Poison them by spraying crops
not intended for forage with one
pound of paris green to so gallons Of
water, or with two pounds Of pow
dered arsenate of lead to so gallons
of water. In case the paris green is
used on tender plants, like corn, add
two pounds of freshly-slaked lime to
so gallons of the mixture. This is to
prevent burning the tender plants.
Where spraying is not practicable,
the use Of the poisoned-bran bait al
ready mentioned is strongly recon-
mended.
8. In case the worms are crawling
in a body, surround them with fur
row or ditch and crush them with a
log drag as they fall into it.

ORATORY NEVER MERE TALK
Lord Brouaham Has Pointed Out the
Great Difference That Exists Be-
tween the Two.

The truth is that a certain prof.
cheney in public speaking may be at
tanned with nearly infallible certainty
by any person who chooses to give
himself the trouble of frequently try
ing it, and can harden himself against
the pain of frequent failures. Com
plete self-possession and perfect flu
ency are thus acquired, almost me-
chanically, and with little or no ref
erence to the talents Of him who be-
comes possessed of them. If he is a
man of no capacity, his speeches will
of course be very bad; but though he
be a man of genius, they will not be
eloquent. A sensible remark or a fine
image may frequently occur; but the
loose and slovenly and poor diction,
the want of art in combining and dis
posing his ideas, the inability to bring
out many of his thoughts. and the ut
ter incompetency to present any of
them in the best and most efficient
form, will deprive such speaker of
all claims to the character of an ora
tor, and reduce him to the level of an
ordinary talker.-Henry, Lord Brough-

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
It is q physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi'
cine. It helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

soil is moved down the side slopes by
cultivation. AS q result, the terraces
are more liable to break, and much
more maintenance work Is required
than where the rows are run parallel
to the terraces.
All terraces that are cultivated
should be plowed at least once year,
and the soil should be thrown to the
center. In this way the height of the
terrace is kept up and the base may
lie broadened each year.
Steep land that washes badly be-
tween the terraces should not be cul-
tivated. The terraces should first be
we'll built and the entire field seeded
to grass and used for pasture or
meadow.
When it is found necessary to cross
farm road in terracing field, the
building of the terraces should be con-
tinued across without regard to the
road Where the terraces are as much
az 20 feet broad, no provision need be
made for passing traffic across them,
but they should be carefully main
tanned to prevent possible breaks.
Where the terraces are not more than
ten feet broad, considerable inconveni-
ence to traffic and injury to the ter
races generally results where no pro-
vision for crossing is made. Some
times the water is carried under the
roadway by cIvert, but the principal
objections to this are that the capac-
ity of the waterway is greatly reduced
and the free flow of the water through
the culvert is often INSTRUCTED by
stalks or other trash washed from the
field. A wooden bridge spanning the
channel, so as not to reduce very much
the cross-sectional area of the water
way, makes a more desirable and sat-
isfactory crossing.
