Garage Light.

A very satisfactory light for use IN
the garage may be made by cutting
the side out of an empty metal can
OF the sort that metal polish comes
in, which has a screw top. A case OF
this kind obviates glare and also af-
fords protection to the glass bulb.
BY running layer OF solder in the
bottom OF the can to give It weight
it makes a stand for the light, which
can be conveniently used on the work

Sims could GET a signed pledge to
this effect, it ought to be filed in

Secretary Daniels also asserted
that Sims told c.. C. Carlin, then
Congressman from Virginia, Wis
iting London during the war, that
as compared to the British navy
our achievements had amounted
to little; that England had pro
tected us upon the sea and we
could always RELY upon her to do
so. and that in view of this friend
shin there was no necessity for us
to desire a navy which would in
ny way equal that of Great Bri-
tain. "
Mr.. Carlin, Secretary Daniels
declared Sims should be on the
British payroll, not America $.

BRITAIN HELPLESS WILSON
DECLARED.

Washington, May 13.-Great
Britain was "helpless to the
points of panic" in the submarine
crisis. according to President Will
son in cable criticising the Brit
ish admiralty, sent to Admiral
Sims July 4, 1917. and read to the
senate naval affairs committee
to-day by Secretary Daniels.
This cable. which was " strictly
confidential" declared the British
admiralty was failing to use of its
great naval superiority effectively
and urged Sims to send a complete
report of what the admiralty was
doing together with his own rec
concentrations "without regard
to the Judgment Of anyone on that
side Of the water. F"
Helpless To Point of Panic.
The cable in part follows:
From the beginning Of the
war, I have been greatly sur
prised at the failure of the British
admiralty to use Great Britain s
great naval superiority in an eff
fective way. In the presence of
the present submarine emergency
they are helpless to the point of
panic.
Every plan we suggest they
for some reason of prudence. In
my view this is not a time for
prudence but for boldness even
at the cost of great losses.

partment. Mr.. Heymam had a
few rolls he could spare and being
a public-spirited man he suggested
that since Lafayette would grieve
deeply if the Gazette should miss
an issue, he would lend us enough
wrapping paper to wrap up the
days news for distribution
among the thousands of readers
We accepted and therefore the
Gazette for Friday afternoon was
the most passionate journalistic
effort Of our gay and exceedingly
young career. The paper was a
lavender-hued design and looked
pretty enough to cause some OBJ
serving readers to take a Whit at
it to see if it was a newspaper or
a sachet. The Mary Garden stuff
was missing, but all else was
there. 1T was such a popular edi-
ton that we are responding to an
encore today and so many calls
have come in for extra copies that
we are about to suspect some peo-
pie are going to do an extensive
Job of spring house-papering.
Nevertheless and Notwithstanding,
therefore, through the patriotic
spirit of Mr.. Heymann the Ga
zette was enabled to maintain its
twenty-seven years record of
never having missed an issue, and
if his stock of lavender wrappers
hold out we won't miss any in
future. despite the stringency in

SENATOR WOULD COMPEL
POSTING OF ALL TARIFFS.

Baton Rouge, La, May IL
There are breakers ahead for the
hotel keepers who have beer
'gouging the public by jumping
the rates on special occasions
Senator J. R. Domengeaux of La
fayette, representing the Thir-
teenth district, has two bills he
will drop in the hopper, hitting at
hotel and boarding-h house keepers.
The first bill compels the hotel
and boarding house keepers to file
their rates for rooms at quarterly
periods with the clerks of the dis
trict court, posting the rates in
the rooms and prohibiting a
change in the room rates at any
other period than quarterly. This
bill carries with it a penalty of
not less than $50, nor more than
$500 fine, or thirty 30 days in jail
759 each day the act is violated.
If passed by the state legislature
the measure becomes effective
October Is. The bill will partic-
ularly affect New Orleans in their
winter rates during the racing
season.
The other bill looks to the COM
fort of the guests in requiring
hotels and boarding houses to
screen all doors, windows or other
openings that would permit en-
trance to flies and mosquitoes. A
fine of not less than $40, more
than 800, or thirty days in jail,
or both, is provided for violation
of the act.

WILD CUCUMBER VINES ARE
MENACE TO PICKLE
INDUSTRY.

Wild cucumbers are a serious
menace to pickle growing. That
the eradication Of this plant would
reduce, if not entirely eliminate,
the mosaic Of cucumbers which III
some sections has practically
driven the picking business out
of existence, is shown by studies
Amade in Wisconsin by United
T5tateS Department of Agriculture
scientists. Their Investigations
prove that the white pickle dis
ease, or mosaic disease Of cucum-
berS, also attacks the wild or four
seeded cucumber, a vine which
occurs along streams and is used
for ornamental purposes in many
parts Of the Middle West. Mich
lgan, Indiana, Illinois, and Wis
consin, where this wild vine
thrives are the center of the
pickle-growing industry in this
country. The wild plant is
serious menace to the cultivated
cucumber in these States because
it is the principal, if not the only,
means by which this disease is car
rled over from season to season.
Destroy Wild Cucumber Plants.
All persons In town and coun-
try in cucumber regions are urged
by the United States Department
] Of Agriculture to stop planting
~and destroy all wild cucumber
plants found in their vicinity. 1t
is pointed out that many other
climbing vines, both annual and
perennial, can well be substituted
for the wilde ucumber and do not !
har6or a disease injurious to the
cultivated crop.
Coincident with the great
abundance Of wild cucumbers near
towns, it has been observed that
the white pickle disease Of the cul-
tivated cucumber is generally
more abundant and severe near
towns than in the open country.
This is of Importance not only to
nearby farmers who grow pick
les as a business, but to town
gardeners as well who wish to
grow few cucumbers, muskmel-
ons, or other vine crops for home
use.

us efficacious.
Z" [ would be very much obliged
to you if you will report to me,

your own comments and Sugges-

THE admiralty was very slow
to adopt the protection of convoy
and it is now, 1 judge protecting
conveys on adequate scale within
the danger zone, seeming to keep
craft with the grand fleet. The
absence of craft for convoy is
is more apparent on the French
coast than on the English coast
and in the channel.
II do not see how the neces-
sary military supplies of food and
fuel are to be delivered at British
ports in any other way within the
next few months than under ade-
quate convoy. There will pre-;
Sently not be ships or tankers

results in less than IS months.
