KEEP OUT OF EUROPE

Europe is a good place to avoid
just at present, thinks American
Medicine New York, February Bad
transportation and the prevalence of
disease are too of the many good rea-
sons. And yet, we are told the Off
ces of the steamship companies have
been besieged with applications for
passage across the Atlantic. The mo-
ment the bars are let down there will
be a rush of travellers to visit the
battle-scenes or to see how the capt.
tails they knew in peace have altered
under the strain of war. We read:
"No doubt the people of Europe
look forward no less anXiOusly to this
rush of foreign visitors, who promise
an increase of revenue which will be
welcome after the strain of expendi-
lures which the war has entailed. But
there are two good reasons why
Americans should for the time being
postpone their invasion of Europe.
One is that the officials of the Allied
countries do not want them to come
at this time, when the transportation
facilities are strained to their ut
most in the complicated task of de-
dmobilization and reconstruction.
Italy has already officially announced
that she would regard a postpone
ment of any influx of American visit
ors for the present as favor, and
France has intimated as much through
more than one of her spokesman.
But there is second consideration of
forbidding MISUNDERSTANDING to
the traveler-and that is the danger
such traveller would expose himself
to in visiting Europe at time when
contagious diseases are as prevalent
as they are abroad just now. The
vitality of the peoples of Europe,
Slapped by the burdens of so long and
so trying war, are at low ebb, and
diseases such as typhus, pneumonia,
smallpox, and others have found ready
victims everywhere. Besides, many
of the returning prisoners are coming
back to France consumptive. These
diseases are a distinct menace to any
one exposing himself to them, and
Americans would be exceedingly un-
wise to refuse to allay their curiosity
when it can be satisfied only at the
cost of such unnecessary exposure.
1t would be more sensible to postpone
that projected trip TO Europe until
such time as conditions there are re-
stored more nearly to normal and the
danger to the health of the visitor is
eliminated"

Florida's Soil-Building Plants

Florida is specially adapted to
the growth of the soil-building le-
guminous plants-cowpeas, soy
beans, beggarweed, velvet beans,
peanuts etc. These products furn-
ish food for man, animals and the
land. There are many varieties
of these important plants, some of
them heavy yielders Of vines for
fodder and seeds for food, says
the State Marketing Bureau. The
beggarweed is native plant;
makes two crops a year and is
fine food for stock. The velvet
bean, with it's broad, green leaves,
is quite ornamental and can be
used as climbing vine for arbors.
1t takes a long season to mature
the seed, and Florida is the only
state where this is possible over
its entire area. 1t produces
great amount Of forage and is
wonderful enricher of the soil.
The soybean is the source of a
variety of prepared foods among
the Japanese and Chinese. Con-
tanning no starch, the soybean is
meat substitute in the Oriental
dietary, to balance the starch in
the rice, so extensively used for
food.

Push Your Home Town

An exchange says, Push your
town along, but don't shove it off
the map-work for it, but not a.
gainst it.
You may think that your lack
of interest in the town will have
no injurious effect, but you are
wrong.
If you are anything but num-
skull there are others who are al
ways ready to follow your lead,
even though it result in the wreck
ing of your home town.
You can't keep your question
able acts under cover. They are
bound to creep out and once in the
open they breed like mosquitoes
in swamp. And you can t kick
your home town without breaking
your own toe. But you can push
your home town along by en-
couraging home industries.
You can push it along by pro-
ducing to the limit and keeping
the profits at home.
You can push your town along
by being of it as well as in it, and
remembering that every dollar
you keep in the town is just that
much additional prosperity for
the town and for you.
The home merchant knows you,
is your friend, and wants to see
you succeed.
The mail order man doesn't
know you, don't care a rap about
you, and never wants to see any
thing of you except your money.

THE MOLE CRICKET
How to Protect Plants From Their
Ravages

Mole-crickets are very destruct-
i've to vegetation, particularly in
gardens and seedbeds. They make
runways just beneath the surface
of the ground which resemble
those of moles, but much smaller.
They live mostly in the ground
during the daytime and come out
at night to feed.
Mole-crickets may be kept out
of seedbeds by the use of a guaze
floor, says j. R. Watson of the
University of Florida experiment
station. At the time the seed bed
is made, dig out the earth to a
depth of foot or more and place
in the bottom a layer of galvaniz-
ed or copper mosquito netting. II
should come up at the sides and
project a couple of inches above
the ground.
Plants set in the field may be
protected by banding. Melt off
the. tops and bottoms of tin cans
and place the cylinders over the
plants, pressing the edge into the

earth to some depth. Tarred pa
per may also be used for this pur-
pose.
Mole-crickets may also be pois-
oned by the use Of carbon bisul-
phide or paris green.
To reduce the number of mole
crickets in badly infested ground,
pillow deeply several times in the
spring, from March to June, when
they are breeding most actively.
Allow chickens, and especially
turkeys, to follow the pillow, for
they are very fond of these in
sects.
The best bait for mole-crickets
consists of | to IL pounds of
Pairs green to so pounds low
grade -four. Mix thoroughly and
scatter broadcast at the rate of
250 to 800 pounds to the acre.
