THE INDUSTRIAL UNREST

During this period of social un-
rest, and at a. time when so many
self-styled political economists are
announcing panaceas for the dlscon-
tent now spreading over the entire
world, 1T is well to study some OF
the practical plans suggested, al
though we may wisely repudlate the
great mass.
The Gazette has on several occa-
sions directed attention to tie tact
that laboring men who own or are
paying for their homes are seldom
found in, the ranks of those who are
keeping, the world disturbed. Such
persons are 10th to lose time, as
they make their calculations upon
the amounts they will receive
monthly and cut their cloth accord
ingly. r.
The man. however whose estate

of abode, and whose wont it is to be

walkouts. But the man who, IS
struggling to pay for his home. or
who has emerged with the title in
his possession, is generally a good
citizen and seldom found in the
ranks of strife-breeders.
We have at times suggested that
more interest should be manifested
in the formation of building assoo-

FOURTH DISTRICT
REPUBLICAN OPINION

Shawnee scores as being the
scene of the first presidential com
mi,tee meeting held in the United
States.
At this solemn conclave Of
Fourth district Republicans. the
initial signs of the national CON-
mi,tceman polar wave were duly
recorded.
The forces Of McGraw and Jake
Hamon clashed, and when the
debris was cleared away, Jake
lIamon was on the mat taking The
count.
For some reason unexplained
the Hamcn barrel was not taken
to Shawnee: il developed that the
delegates paid for their own hotel
accommodations. Ii appears The
Hamon forces misinterpre'ed the
signals and were telescoped on a
side-irack.
The Fourth district is peculiar
in fact. il is unique for its vagar-
les, but there was no mlsunder-
standing about the Hamcn turn
down.
The questions naturally arise
+ Where were the ]. Hamon lieu-
tenantss Where was the kale =
Perhaps, the echo will be heard
in other district meetings.
Another picturesque feature OF
the Shawnee confab centers in the
fact that the boasied popularity
of Gen. Mood, as a presidential
candidate, did not materializc.

sented as strongly as Wood All

rate of | pound of the powder or 2
pounds of the paste to SO gallons Of
water, in which 2 to 4 pounds of COM
mon yellow laundry soap have been
dissolved. In smaller quantities one
may use ] Inc of the powder to
each gallon of water, plus an inch
cube of soap. The spray should be
applied Is a fine mist, and the foliage
thoroughly coated. For garden plots
a small hand spfayer, costing from
IS cents to ST. 80 is su ficient. For an
acre O two one should use some type
of knapsack or compressed air spray
er, which would cost from Sc to $40.
For large fields it is best to use a
power sprayer such as a four-roW po-
tato sprayer-
AS a dust spray the poisons may be
diluted with from 5 to 10 parts by
w~eightrof air Stacked lime. This
mixture should be busted on the
plants early in the morning while
they are still wet with dew, using a
~cheese-cloth sack or can punched
with holes in the bottom for small
plots or a hand buster for larger ac-
creage.
The consumer is in no danger of
being poisoned from eating cabbage
sprayed with poisons if ordinary care
is used in preparing it. Tests car
ried on at this station in 1917 show
that there was no trace of poison on
heads from which the outer layer of
leaves had been removed, even when
sprayed until a week before harvest
ing. The cabbage plant grows from
the inside out. The loose leaves are
all removed when the cabbage is
gathered, and another layer of leaves
is removed in preparation for cook
ing, so that there should be no leaves
present with poison on them.
1t is important to gather and de-
stroy or pillow under all cabbage
stumps as o o as possible after the
crop has been harvested, so that any
worms still present cannot complete
their development and damage the
crop of the next season.-U. S. Agr.

Fighting the Cabbage Worm.

The serious losses which are fire.
quently caused to cabbage and cauli-
flower by the cabbage worm can be
entirely prevented by properly spray
ing the plants with some ~aresenical
poison, such as lead arsenate.
The best results can be obtained by
doing six things:
l. Spray when the worms first ap-
pear. Don't wait until the cabbage is
seriously injured.
2. Repeat the spray when necessary
to V new leaf growth and to poi
son worms from later matches. Eggs
for the second Matching are usually
laid early in July, and for the third,
early in August. Eggs hatch in from
four days TO a week.
3. Use some kind of ''sticker" in
the liquid spray. Common yellow
laundry soap is satisfactory. Cab
bage leaves are smooth and waxy,
and unless a "sticker" is added to
the spray much of it will roll off the
leaves.
4. Apply the spray in the form of
a fine mist, SO that the foliage will
be thoroughly coated with poison.
5. Keep the spray material well
stirred or mixed, so that it does not
settle to the bottom of the tank.
6. Strain spray materials before
placing in tank to avoid clogging Of
nozzles.
Calcium arsenate, lead arsenate
and paris green all give good results
in controlling the cabbage worm.
However, calcium arsenate and lead
arsenate are cheaper than paris green
and stick better. Also, they show
white on the plants, so that one can
readily see what has been sprayed.
The poisons may be applied in the
form of either liquid or dust spray.
Under Wisconsin conditions the IL
guild spray seems to stick better and
give better results, although the dust
spray will also prove satisfactory.
AS a liquid spray, calcium arsenate
and lead arsenate are used at the

question is now, shall the United

FRIDAY. JULY IS, 1919
Hysterical Senators.

You know that very few congressional sessions have
ever had more weighty and pressing business to deal
with than this one has. It was clear when Congress met
that if the most pressing and important of that business
got transacted this year neither house had any time to
waste. The first business was this peace settlement
involving much for the United States and the world.
Congress duly convened; school, was in session; then
two senators said somebody in Wall Street had a copy OF
the treaty. At once all was confusion and distraction.
The poor senate could not attend to anything else for
Two or three days until it had clamored, charged, coun-
te~rcharged, butted, rebutted and surrebutted, and final
~ ordered an elaborate time-consuming investigation of
that startling statement.
The effect was exactly as though some mlsch1eyous
urchin loosed a mouse IN a girls school.
1t was well known that a great many copies OF the
peace treaty had been printed and handed about among
scores of people. It was well known that copies of the
treaty had been published in Germany and in some neut-
raj countries where almost anybody could obtain one. An
enterprising American correspondent seems to have had
no difficulty, in getting hold of a copy. That somebody in
Wall Street had got hold of a copy was very probable
and of no more real consequence than what sort of neck
tie the sergeant at arms was wearing that morning.
Whether somebody in Wall Street or elsewhere had got
copy of a document so much handed about and accessi-
BILE in so many places could have no more bearing on the
worldpeace settlement than what kind of paper it was
printed on.
But as soon as somebody said "Wall Street, the Sen
ate was helplessly bumped off the track, and newspaper
columns were filed with gossip utterly irrevelent to the
great question before the Senate and the country. A
Senate with real leadership and a real sense of response
bility would not behave that way.-Saturday Evening
Post.
