Any time during the last week OF
July or the first week of August the
ground should be thoroughly dished

mistakes is in not disking the ground
before it is plowed and in not making
q firm, solid seed bed before sowing.
If rain comes during the latter part of
July or the first of August. 1t is good
plan to prepare the ground and sow
the seed at once while there is sufti-
cient moisture in the ground to sprout

a good plan to put the seed in with a
drill or disk 1t in, to secure sufficient
moisture to start it at once. When
the ground has been disked and har-

better qualified to successfully treat the
diseases peculiar to women than DE-.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. The cases that
como to him run into many thousands,

that in nearly every case there were
certain vegetable growths which rarely
failed to give prompt relief in those

women suffer. He combined these roots
and herbs into . Temperance medicine
that he called DR.. Piesce's Favorite Pres

This Is q locust year." and the
usual popular fear and mlsapprehen-
sion attend.
People In that large part of the
United States over which the periodi-
cal cicada will appear are disposed,
as always, to apprehend greater dam
age than will occur-many times
greater. OF the remainder of the
United States, large sections are under
another misrepresentation, which is that
the insect about to appear is the real
locust that sometimes in dew
astating hordes, sweeping across
large sections of country and devOur-
Ing every green thing. The latter mis-
apprehension is, perhaps, the more
widespread and disquieting, according
to entomologists of the United States
department of agriculture. People who
have had experience with the real To-
Gust and the ruin 1t works never forget,
and the word locust" even though
1t be a misnomer, is likely to be a
signal for dread.
Now, the periodical cicada, com
monty called the 17-year locust-the
insect that will appear in Il states
this spring-is not Il locust at all. 1t
is q cicada, member of the family OF
| cicadidae and akin to the dOg-day
cicada, harvest fly, or d~ry-weather fly.
The real locust-the devastating kind
lis a grasshopper.
The periodical cicada, miscalled To-
Gust, is strictly an American insect.
The real locust, commonly called grass
hopper, ecu In many parts of the
world and has had it's place i'm history
for thousands of years. There are
many species. The schistocerca pere-
grina is the n that plagued the Egyp-
tians and probably the n on which
John the Baptist fed. The one that
has sometimes ravaged the great plains
and other sections of the United States
Is the meIanoplus spretus, a related
species.
Have Little in Common.
The real locust or grasshopper and
the so-called locust or periodical cfcada
have very little in communicating,
In fact, except hat both occur in large
numbers and both occasionally have
been used as human food, the former
mostly by certain peoples Of the near
East and the latter by the American
Indians.
The real locust is an indiscriminate
eater, grain fields, corn fields, mead
ows, pastures, weed patches-every-
thing falls before him. The periodical
cicada or so-called locust is dainty al
most beyond belief. 1t was long be-
lieved that this insect in the adult
stage took no nosrishment at all. On
| rare occasions it had been observed
! with it's beak apparently thrust into
| twigs, but it was not until IL years
| ago, the last previous appearance of
| the large brood that comes out this
| year, that it was definitely determined
| that this belief was erroneous. The

Need of a Cash Register.

Mr.. NJ is not always as regular
in his accounts as he might be. In
spite of that, however, ne was recently
elected to carry the contribution bas-
xet ut his church. But there was much
opposition, particularly from the men,
who had known him to juggle various
other accounts over which he had had
charge. Finally the grocer voiced his
objection in this way: 81 don't think
we'd better let him carry that basket
unless we have a cash register at

Buffet Meets Bullet.

So many bullets flew through the

Of the great war that some Of them

A pair of fighting bullets were picked

the juices Of plants, sucked out in very
small quantities and without causing
appreciate injury to plants.
So far as ~periodicity Of outbreaks Is
concerned, the real locust or grass
hopper is a law unto itself. The hOrdes
may appear any years or not at all.
Tie hOrdes of the "17-year locust" or
periodical cicada appear with a regu-
larity that would almost put to shame
q government clock. In spite Of their
extremely slow development under
ground, the multiplied millions of in
dividuals reach maturity and emerge
almost at the same moment and eX-
actly II years from the date Of the
previous appearance-that is, If they
are of the 17-year race There is a l3-
year race of the periodical cicada. But
it is just as regular, just as exactly on
schedule, rs the other one.
~. Real Locust a Nomad.
The real locust is q sort of nomadic
militant. It's hOrdes, like those Of Atil-
la the Hun or Of Genghis Khan, sweep
hither and yon, always on the move,
destroying as they go. The so-called
17-year locust or cicada is a home
body. ~StevensOn's lOvaNe character,
"Will o. the MIL" did not stick so
closely TO his birthplace as does the
periodical cicada. Literally, he abides
always under his own vine and fig
tree" The tree from which any in
dividual cicada dropped as a newly
Matched larva II years ago Is the X
act tree under which he wifi emerge
this spring, up which he will mos
likely crawl to cast his pupal' skin, and
in which he will meet his mate and
sing his love song, in which he will
pass his days of decrepitude, ard from
which. I'm q few weeks, his dead body
will fall, almost upon the spot where
he-as a larva-fell IT years before
and burrowed into the ground. Where
the periodical cicada came into exist
ence, there he spends his days and
dies.
Injury by Insects.
Every crop suffers from the ravages
Of the real locust. Only trees suffer
at oil from the 17-year locust, and
only very young fruit and ornamental
trees are likely to be severely injured
