Europe Takes to Chewing Gum.

The jaws of Europe are wagging
on American chewing gum. Efforts
we're made at different times to pop
ularize chewing gum in the countries
Of Europe, but always without success
until the American soldiers took some
over there. after which the gum chew
ing habit became .yertable craze.
Chewing gum to the value Of 50, 1884,
300 was exported by the United States
during the year 1919, and England
was the heaviest purchaser, During
the war chewing gum became very
popular in the munitions factories Of
England, where it took the place Of
tobacco, smoking being barred.

To Destroy Grasshoppers.

Poisoned bran bait is a simple, re-
liable and cheap method Of destroy
ing grasshoppers. The formula is:
Wheat bran, 25 pounds; Paris green,
one pound. or white arsenic, one
pound; lemons or oranges, six finely
chopped fruits; low-grade molasses,
two quarts. The mixture is scattered
over the fields. Beneficial results have
been obtained from the poison, but In
whatever process is followed, commun-
icatlon must unite, for If one farm
is rid of the insects, new invasion
will come in from the adjoining farm.
An interesting incident Of all poison
bats is that lemon juice is added, thus
it seems that it is necessary to hand
the hopper a lemon in order to get rid
Of him.

Boards AS BILL COLLECTORS
Author Gives Possible Reason Why
Most Publishers Prefer the Clean
Shaver Face.

Herbert jenkins, the London pub
Usher who occasionally losses off a
book himself, tells the story of how
on one occasion when he was dining
with an author and editor, the author
suddenly called his attention to man
sitting alone in far corner of the
restaurant.
"That man." remarked the author,
"has character. He has publisher
from whom he can never extract
money What do you think he didT'
Mr.. Jenkins shook a dubious head.
"He went to the publishers office
and demanded payment. There was
nothing doing. Without ceremony he
seized the publisher by the beard and
announced his intention of hanging on
until he got a check. He got his
money.
"That," continued the author re-
morselessly, as he fixed a speculative
eve upon Mr.. jenkins clean-shaven
chin, sis why very few publishers wear
boards"

PLANS TOURING
WEST COUNTRY
Pivotal States Claim
First Attention by
Latest Plans.

Marion, Sept. 11.-Tentative
plans for speaking trips by
Senator Harding to both coasts
have reached the stage, it be-
came known here Saturday,
where an itinerary of cities is
under discussion.
As these plans now shape they would
carry the senator into many states and
would keep him away from Marion most
Of the time from late September to elec-
tiou day.
Headquarters officials said a decision
probably would not BE- reached for sew
eral days. bat it was indicated that both
the nominee and his managers were in
cEning toward the coast to coast pro
posaI. The senator himself has taken
the position that should he go into the
west ut NIL he must visit every western
state in which there is a senatorial con-
test and it is understood that his wish
in that regard is to prevail.
The tentative list Of cities to be visited
is understood to include New York. Bos
ton. Philadelphia, Baltimore Indianapo-
liz. Louisville. Milwaukee or Madison.
Omaha, st. Louis Sioux City, Sioux
Falls or Pierre. Bismarck or Fargo.
Butte. Boise. Salt Lake. Denver. Reno.
Tucson, Oklahoma City, Los Angeles.
San Francisco. Portland Seattle and
Spokane. The western swing would
come first, beginning probably about
September y. and the visit to eastern
cities would follow late III October.
