EARLY OUTBREAK OF
HESSlAN FLY LIKELY
Another Invasion of Pest Is Ex-

United States Department Of Agricul-

important Studies.

It is likely that more will be learn
ed this year about the Hessian fly
than I'm any year since General Howe's
hired Hessians are supposed to have
brought the pest to Long Island dur
Ing the Revolution. There have been
numerous destructive outbreaks Of the
Hessian fly and a great deal has been
found out about II, hut nobody was in
position to do the job properly. An
other outbreak is likely this spring.
and the United States department OF
agriculture is ready for 1t.
Two years ago the appropriation for
Hessian fly work was Increased suf-
ficiently to provide for the principal
needs. Shortly afterward the bu-
reau Of entomology established three
stations for the purpose of systematic
study. They are at Carlisle, Pa, Cen

station is equipped with full set of
weather instruments, and several
readings are taken each day through

woodland products In many parts of

Size Of Associations interests.
A cooperative association OF wood

might pay such an organization TO
market 100000 feet of lumber-the
product of perhaps 1000 acres of

would be vastly more profitable If its
members were owners Of 25.000.00O
feet. In any case, the capital invest

by the amount of lumber available
for manufacture.

II EALLY good shopping bags OF

that a good many bags OF other mate
rails are replacing them. Those OF
silks and of heavy and handsome rib

yer mountings, have taken the place
OF the better leather bags to quite an
extent. There are many more bead
hays than ever before, although they
are, as they always have been, expen-
sive. The most practical OF these
substitutes for the regulation leather
bags are those OF ribbon and silks
