TREATMENT OF ARMY WORMS
Pests Can Be Kept Out Of Field by
Plowinp Up Furrow in
Front Of Them.

After army worms once get into a
field there is nothing practical which
can be done to stop them. They can
be kept out of field, however. by
blowing deep furrow In front OF
them. Plow furrow about eight
inches deep and square up one side
of the furrow with spade. Every
ten or fifteen feet in the furrOw dig a
shallow pOsthole. AS fast as the army
worms accumulate in the furrow, and
especially In the postholes, sprinkle
them with kerosene. Army worms
move fast and it Is necessary to ap-
DIV this treatment promptly or they
will have moved into the threatened
field and there Is nothing whatever
which can be done. If the trench
treatment is applied promptly 1t proves
very satisfactory.

would have a cross section or feeding
surface of 80 square feet. For ten
cows therefore. a silo Should be eight

the deepest part of Narragansett bay
Saturday in collision with the Sa-
vannah line steamer City of Atlanta,
So far 10 of the crew of "a of the

ly damaged, the result of hitting the
Cape Fear amidships, but, although
there was sevenfoot hole above the

informal introduction to speak to him
on every occasion of their meeting,
always addressing him as "You big
brute" Both men agreed that thence
forth perverse fate multiplied their
meetings.
Hobnail Small but Active
Monday the meeting was in the hall
way Of the apartment house. A fight
was generated by spontaneous combus-
tion, so to speak. The unfortunate
Roughhouse almost lost an eye, while
the tall and dignitied owner of the
scrappy Hobnail suffered a battered
hat and diverse and humiliating rents
on his gray-striped trousers and morn
ing coat His explanation to Magis-
trate Cobb was that DR.. Hirsch used
his walking stick in the encounter.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Simpson emerged
the t victor and in possession of the
field, Dr. Hirsch fleeing to his apart
ment and locking the door, according
to Mr.. Simpsons testimony. From this
sanctuary DR.. Hirsch telephoned to the
police, declaring that there was mad
dog in the house and that it was to
be found in Mr.. Simpsons apartment.
He said yesterday he meant Hobnail.
A patrolman visited the house. He
found Mr.. Simpson somewhat provoked
and changing his clothes, but obviously
free from hydrophobia. AS to Hob
nail, curled on sofa and contemplate
ing with gentle, doggish delight the
fact that Roughhouse still had one ear
and one eye open to attack, a more
manifestly sane animal could not be
imagined, The patrolman departed.
DR.. Hirsch called the police again
Tuesday and also the Health Depart
ment. The latter sent man to take
Hobnail to a canine observation ward
Mr.. Simpson saw the dog catcher first
and barricaded himself in his apart
ment.
There was another encounter in the
apartment house hall Wednesday. This
time it was Dr. Hirsch's clothing that
suffered. Stealing another leaf from
his opponents book of strategy, Mr..
Simpson obtained a summons directing
DR.. Hirsch to answer in West Side po-
lice court to charge of disorderly
conduct.
DR.. Hicsch answered. Mr.. Simpson
answered his answer and then each an
swered the others answer, and so the
whole story came out and Magistrate
Bruce issued his decree.
