Service. Special Cable Disptach.D
Paris. June 5. Parisians were
amused recently with the trial run
of a new shoe-shaped automobile
just barely large enough to hold
the driver and resembling old Moth
er Hubbard's wooden shos.
Several of these little cars got
away to a good start and passed
through the boulevards and parks,
attracting so great a crowd in many
places that their path was blocked.
They were painted different colors,
and were mounted on low-hung tri-
cycles worked by a motor in the
rear and driven with a little steer
ing wheel.

From Alabam
Following up the hearing given by
the agricultural committee of the
Alabama senate to the agricultural
authorities of the state when the
extent and danger of the bean lady
bird infestation of Walker, Blount,
Etowah, Calhoun, Jefferson, Talla-
dega, Shelby, Bib, st. Clair and
Tuscaloosa counties was impressed
on the committee, DIR. w. E. Kinds,
state entomologist, appeared before
the house committee on agriculture,
Representative R. H. Long, of Sum
ter, chairman, and announced that IN
the insect which was destroying the
bean and pea crops of the counties
named the state had a problem far
greater in its relation to the whole
agricultural system of the United
States than that presented by the
boil weevil.
In addition to the house commit
tee there was a large attendance
of the members of the legislature in
the rooms of the public service COM
mission. where the hearing was held,
led by Senator John A. Rogers, of
Sumter, chairman of the senate
committee on agriculture.
DR.. Kinds exhibited map of the
state showing the counties where the
insect infection was known to exist
and also displayed small walls con-
tanning specimens of the new insect
pest in various stages of growth,
which were afterwards distributed to
members of the Legislature.
DR.. Kinds stated that some farm
ers and legislators had said: "Why,
we've had this thing all along and it
has never been considered so dan
gerous to agriculture before" He
assured them that this was new
bug attacking the great bean crop of
the state, explaining that it had
| come to Alabama from Arizona,
New Mexico or Colorado, probably in
alfalfa hay. The pest had jumped in
the ordinary course of commerce
from the Rocky Mountains to Alaba-
ma, showing how easily it might
spread throughout this state and
other states if full steps were not
Immediately taken for its control
at this time the authorities could not
say eradication because they did not
know enough about it. 1t had first
occurred in the semi-arid regions of
the states named where they had we'll
defined seasons through irrigation
and greater possibilities of control
than in states where the growing
seasons were prolonged, and yet the
bean production had decreased in
these states fifty per cent. The in
lection was bounded by natural bar
riers in the west, but not in Alaba-

GRAY HAIR BECOMES
DARK AND BEAUTIFUL
Try Grandmother's Old Favorite
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to get
this mixture was to make 1t at home,
which is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get large
bottle of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition Of other ingredients,
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation now, because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does 1t so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy and
you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is a delightful
toilet requisite. It is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease.

as were conducted from the French
Gothic, white marble, ultra-fashion-
able St. Thomas Episcopal church,
at Fifty-third street. There the
crowds gave the impression of the
butterfly folk of Long Acre Square
having been lifted in blocks and set
down in Fifth avenue; short-skirted,
gayly-gowned women, who talked as
they watched, and seemed without
emotion. Hardly any men were in
the groups at that church door.
Mr.. Schiff divided his life into two
sections. He lived the second half in
bestowing, without bubble, upon
the needy, what money he had made
in the first half of his life. Those
who stood fifty and sixty deep IN
the rain alongside his way to the
grave knew nothing of the financier,
but everything of their generous
friend who gave aid lavishly.
Olive Thomas was beautiful girl,
a lovely flower that had withered
early. Her fame, more properly term
ed notoriety, was gained in the daz-
zle of the footlights and the over
bank electric luminosity of the
screen, with an overdose of poison
in Paris, the gayest city on earth
for grand climax. What contrast!

Bean Ladybird Is Worse
Pest Than the Boil Weeyil
From Alabama Farm Facts.

/ Farm Facts.
ma and the cotton states. 1t had
been found at 1000 feet elevation
in Colorado and if it survived the
winters there it could undoubtedly
survive in Michigan and New York
1t attacks every kind of table bean
known to American agriculture, and
that means one of the principal pro-
tein foods taking the place of meat
and eggs. He called their attention
to the rapid decrease of pellagra IN
Alabama as a result of beans and
peas taking the place of common
foods which had produced that dis
ease in the rural districts. The ac-
ton to be taken by the legislature
would, therefore, be important from
the standpoint of the public health.
The pest destroyed soy beans, COW
peas, black-eyed peas and all plants
of that species; whether Or not 1t
will attack velvet beans and peanuts
is still in doubt, but if it does the
seriousness of the problem will be
magnified.
Besides being human food, the
state depended on beans and peas
for it's forage crops, for soil build
ing and restoring fertility. When
these crops were destroyed the whole
agricultural system suffered, not on
ly in Alabama but throughout the
country. The boil weevil had driven
farmers of the south to diversified
ton for their own good, and the new
pest threatened to undo what the
weevil had done. In the measure that
it had forced production of food and
feed crops the boil weevil was
blessing, but the new pest offered no
outlook but total destruction.
IF we have fire that's going to
spread" said DR.. Kinds, twill not
other states hold Alabama account
able if we can't stop it here. The
states of Texas and Louisiana are
guaranteeing other states against the
spread of the pink boil worm, with
the assistance of the federal depart
ment of agriculture. The other cot
ton states are quarantined against
the pink worm areas of Texas and
Louisiana, around which no-cotton
zones have been created, but if those
states had not taken action them
selves the entire states would have
been quarantined. Being in touch
with the entomologists of the south
tern states and of the federal depart
ment, | can forsee that all Alabama
will be quarantined on account of
this new insect pest attacking the
bean crops if you gentlemen do not
act promptly"
In answer to questions DR.. Kinds
stated that the new insect feeds on
the under side of the bean leaves
and cannot be controlled by poison.
The non-growing zone around the
infested area is the only known
means of control at this time. The
bean ladybird has no known natural
enemies and is equipped by nature
to repel the ordinary enemies of
such insects. Birds cannot destroy
them because they cannot see them
under the leaves. The eggs are laid
in groups on the under side of leaves
and one group is sufficient to destroy
an entire plant when the insects are
| Matched out. Pictures were shown
of two and three groups of eggs on
each leaf and from five to seven
matured bugs on a leaf. Attempts
at control in the Rocky Mountain
states had failed so far as the doc
tor had been able to learn.
