HOUSE VOTES RECESS TO
BEGIN ON AUGUST

Washington, July Without {
record vote the House today adopted
resolution providing for a recess
from August 2 to September 9. Dur.
ing this time the Senate is expected
to be continuously at work on the
peace treaty.
The vote was preceded by a sharp
debate, and demand by some members
that Congress stay in session until
something was one for men discharg-
ed from war service and to reduce the
high cost Of living.
The recess resolution was presented
by Republican Leader Mondell and
was supported by Minority Leader
Clark and others. Mr. Clark declared
that any bills passed between now and
the middle of September would have
to be sidetracked until the Senate
reached decision on the league of
nations, adding that regardless Of
what the people of the country
thought Of the league they wanted
the question settled.
Mr.. Mondell said the recess plan
would not affect prohibition enforce
ment legislation, as there was no like
Iihood that it would be taken up by
the Senate until the peace treaty had
been disposed of.
Representative Ferris, DenSocrat,
Oklahoma, started a lively political
debate by declaring that the soldier
relief legislation and living problems
should have immediate consideration.
Il don't charge it against either
side" he said, "but want to say
that the high cost of living has got
to have attention from somebody and
at once. You have got to do some
thing.
Considerable partisan politics was
injected into the discussion, and Rep
resentatiye Treadway, Republican
Massachusetts, declared the argument
was the best evidence in the world
that the House acted wisely in voting
for recess.
The House also passed without rec
ord vote the bill for reduction Of the
war tax on fruit juices as urged by
the western producers. Members said
the tax, fixed at 2 cents a gallon,
was flat reduction from % cents,
estimated. All amendments were re-
jected from the bill, which applies to
non-alcoholic beverages, including
loganberry, grape and apple juice

Esq. jim" says that when he was
boy he often went home with neigh
Dor boys at night and stayed all night
with them without the boys people
knowing anything about it until the

all right and the visitor was given a
glad welcome and provided with such
a breakfast as could be gotten up on
such short notice. Nowadays" he
continued, "if all the members of the
family are not given a months notice
of the coming visitor they will all go
into commissions.

Injuries crops in but one way-by eat
ing away all the tender portions of
the leaves, the immature seed, and
sprouts and when numerous it may
even devour the plants down to the

for food of the full-grown caterpillars
are almost unbelievable. The pupa
takes no food. The moth subsists
principally upon the nectar gathered
from flowers.
1t is the massing together of the
caterpillars which gives to the farmer
the chance of destroying them in
great numbers. burrows or bitches

feeding upon them-in a year, but
seldom or never are there two sue
