Making Farm-to-
Farm Survey to Com
pIete Barberry Fight

In the work of the United States
! Department of Agriculture for the
eradication of the common barberry
as a defensive measure against wheat
rust, the survey of the principal ci-
ties and towns has been practically
| finished. A rm-to-farm survey,
however, is really just begun in por-
! tons of the Ii States included in this
campaign to locate the thousands of
cultivated and escaped bushes on
farms. A resurvey of cities and
| towns also is being made to guard
against sprouting and to find isolated
| bushes which have been overlooked.
/ Preliminary inspections showed
that it would be necessary to survey
every farm in this territory east of
the one hundredth meridian. This
survey was started in some States in
1919 and in the others in 1920. Eleven
counties on the eastern border Of
! North Dakota, seven on the eastern
border of South Dakota, and Is coun-
ties in southeastern Minnesota have
! been surveyed, and some work done
in five others.
Fourteen counties in northeastern
Iowa and the equivalent of Is in Neb-
raska have been covered by the rural
survey. Six counties near the border
of Illinois and Wisconsin have been
covered, and in them cultivated bar
berries on farms and widely scattered
escaped bushes have been found more
abundantly than in most States. Nine
teen counties in Indiana, six in Ohio,
and three very large counties in
southern Michigan have been cleared.
The results of the survey show that
there were cultivated barberries on
one or more farms in every county. In
some counties there were hundreds of
| farms with cultivated and many with
escaped bushes. The number Of ma
ture fruiting bushes and the hundreds
of scattered seedlings indicate that
within a few more years many of
these counties would have had still
more severe rust injury to wheat.
Numerous cases of the direct spread
of stem rust directly from barberries
to grain were mapped and used as
| demonstration to farmers.
In Colorado, Wyoming, and Mon
tana, more recently and more thinly
settled, barberries were less numer-
Gus. The survey of the principal areas
of Colorado supposed to have barber
ries has been completed, except an ir-
rigated district south and east of
Platteville and the river valley from
Fort Morgan to the Nebraska line.
All necessary surveys and one resur-
vey for sprouts have been made in
Montana All cities and towns Of
eastern Wyoming have been inspected
and plans are on foot for rural SUI
vey Of irrigated areas there.

Health Seal Sale.
Fund of S250,000 to Fight Diseases
Sought-Campaigns Start Nov. %.

Preparations for the 1920 health seal
sale in Minnesota to raise a $780,
900 fund with which to fight tubercu-
losis and other diseases in every COM
munity in Minnesota next year are
being made in every county under the
direction of the Minnesota Public
Health association.
All state campaigns are under the
general supervision of the National
tuberculosis association. County
quotas of the state fund are on the
basis of 10 cents worth of Christmas
seals, or the equivalent in health
bonds, for every resident of the coun-
ty.
The sale of health stamps will begin
Nov 20. An intensive sales campaign
will be waged from Dec. to 10. This
will be followed by the sale by school
children and "clean up" drives by seal
sale organizations until Christmas
day.

ENGLISH FORMS
OF SIP E CHI

English idioms and forms of speech
are attractive to American ears, as
are the modulated voices and clear
information of cultivated English peo-
pie. From the English actors who
visit our shores we get that perfect
enunciation which leads us to think
it racial characteristic, but there
are probably as many shrill and I'M
pleasant voices in England as there
are loud and nasal ones in this coun-
try.
A stranger travelling in England
never gets quite accustomed to the
nonchalant "I'm sorry" delivered in
blithe, care-free tones when ones feet
have been walked over, Or ones elbows
knocked. 1t does not take the place,
in our aggrieved consciousness, of a
heartfelt, II beg your pardon" but it
seems to be the accepted form of apol-
ogy. In England, a man not quite a
gentleman is bounder or a cad; the
weather is wet or fine, instead of
rainy or fair; a darned fool becomes a
silly ass, trunk is a box, and bag
gage, luggage. The good New Eng
land surprise expression, "Well, did
you evern becomes a drawled out
"Fawncy now!" and "My word" is
equivalent Of aye gods!"
A landlady in Liverpool once said to
me in dulcet tones, "Do you go in for
potatoes ?" | was bewildered for a
moment, wondering if she meant to
ask if | cultivated them myself but
finally | realized that she was merely
asking me if | liked them.

picking to the uninitiated, and like

our own, constantly changing The
expression, "jolly well out OF it," IS
often heard; a thing isn't cricket
when it isn't fair or sportsmaniike.
The war slang was a language in It
self, and the queer French and Eng
lish patois was known only to those
whom it served in their hours of need.
1t has been said that Dickens Pick

BILE to the average reader in fifty
years, as London street-language
changes so in the lapse of time. We
know our own slang has its distinct
periods; do we ever now hear the ex-
preston, "Ah, there!" or "Oh, rats;
or TITS cold day when get left?''
How silly and weak this slang of a
by-gone day seems now, but it is
stamped with certain period, just as

Girl Kicks Door In.

Just as Fong Bong, manager of
Sing Fats Chinese store, closed the
place, an automobile pulled up at the
curb and two young women, well
dressed, stepped out and knocked for
admittance.
"Closed for the night, ladies' Fong
Bong called through the door. "Sor-
ry, come tomorrow"
''But we want to buy something now
and we cannot wait until tomorrow -
said the women and began rafting the
door.
Cant open again, sorry" said Fong
Bong, sweetly.
"But we must buy birthday pres
ent tonight, and you simply must OPP
en- the store and let us buy some
thing, it won't take a minute"
Fong Bong evidently had had ex-
perience with women shoppers and
knew they cannot possibly buy any
thing in a scant 60 seconds, so he
stood firm and politely refused to
open the store.
For the last time, will you OF
won't you let US in?" demanded one

Exit Movie Star.

Aurora Mardiganian IS an Armeni-
an girl, a refugee from Turkish afro
cities, whose stories of Turk outrage
were printed in The Minneapolis Jour
nal. She was found two years ago in
the Armenian district of New York
working for IS a week in a kimono
factory, dressed in rags, destitute and
sick.
The Armenian and Syrian relief
commission saw publicity possibili-
ties in her amazing Storics of how she
was tortured. Her stories were sold
for thousands Of dollars; she was tax
en- to the luxurious home Of Mrs Flea
nor Gates on Riverside drive; she was
starred in a sensational movie, still
remembered under its title of The
Auction Of Souls"
It is estimated that this girl immi-
grant with the thrilling tales she told
and the films $18,000,O00. She had a
special car to carry her across the
contipent in her movie work and pub
LEFTY stunts for relief funds. She had
masseuses and maids to pamper her
whims.
Today she is back again among her
lowly people in the crowded tenements
of the Armenian colony. Of the $14,-
600 given her for her own in two
years, there is nothing left. Mrs.
Gates has asked the courts here to
settle her accounts with the girl and
relieve her of her guardianship.
Success turned the girls head"
Mrs. Gates husband explained. "She

She was grasping always for money

Thus closes the career of another
