HIRAM EVIDENTLY A SNORER
Faithful Wife Thought She Recog-
nized Porcine Lamentations as
Made by Her Lord and Master.

An amazingly fat couple boarded a
sleeping car just before the train
pulled out of the Pennsylvania station
In New York, and soon retired, the
woman taking the lower berth and the
man the upper of a section. 1t was
necessary to enlist the mid OF the por-
ter and couple of friendly passen-
gers to enable the man to attain to
his lofty couch, but 1t was accom-
plished and the car presently became
quiet.
Some time during the night the
train was held up on siding, and, as
II happened, the sleeping car was
stopped right alongside a car loaded
with uncomfortable and loudly protest
Ing hogs. the noise of whose lamenta-
tons assembled to the stars.
"Oh, Lord !" the occupant of the low
err berth was heard to moan. Just
listen to that! Hiram has started TO
snorin' and 1 can't get up there to
make him turn over"

EARLY GUTHRIE AK OF
HESSIAN FLY LIKELY
Another Invasion of Pest Is Ex-
pected This Spring.
United States Department Of Agrlcul-
ture Has Made Complete Prepar-
atlons to Make Number Of
important Studies.

1t is likely that more will be learR-
ed this year about the Hessian fly
than in 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
Hesslan fly and great deal has been
found out about It. but 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 sus-
ficientiy 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. Gen.
tralia, H., and Wichita. Kan. Each
station is equipped with full set of
weather instruments. and several
readings are taken each day through
out the year. Servings have been
made at various dates for several
years to determine the fy-free period
Tor each year. Experiments lave
beer conducted with many varieties
OF wheat to setermine their fy-resist-
ING qualities Exhaustive investiga-

The spread Of onion smut into the,
large northern onion sections and it's
increasing prevalence each year. have,
emphasized the importance of a prac-
teal means of control for this disease.
After careful experimentation, special
lists Of the United States department
of agriculture recommend solution of
formaldehyde In the furrow with the
seed.
Onion smut Is caused by fungous
parasite which lives In the soil and,
when once introduced, spreads slowly
TO adjoining areas. In the spring, at
the time when the onion seeds are
terminating. the smut spores. or seed
bodies, also terminate and infect the
young seedlings, causing brown to
black elongated blisters within the
scales or leaves, which often split
open, exposing the powdery black
masses of spores. Affected leaves
usually are slightly thickened and
often curve downward. Many of the
young seedlings are so heavily at
tackled that they die within three to
five weeks after termination. Others
may survive until harvest time and
reach the warehouse or market.
Controlled by Formaldehyde.
A peculiar and important fact about
onion smut is that the onion plant can
be attacked by fungus only while in
the young Seeding stage. After the
plants are about three inches high
they become immune to infection by
the smut fungus, and onion sets or
seedlings three 10 fonr inches high
