the fact that probably 2,400, 900 of the

A good way to see the interior of Japan
is from a car window as the train flashes
through the valleys or follows the contour
of the Inland Sea. The outstanding i'm.
preston that one obtains is that life in the
smaller communities is divided between
working in the fields, fishing in the sea and
swimming in the creeks. When working
in the fields the Japanese men and women
wear a minimum of clothing, the most
conspicuous features being a mammoth
mushroom hat and a straw mat, which pro-

TO WAGE HARD FIGHT
AGAINST CORN BORER
Steps Taken to Prevent Spread
of Insect Pest.
Specialists In Charge Of Work Have
Completed Plans for Carrying on
Work-infested Area Borders
on Lake Erie.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Suppressive measures against the
European corn borer are to be applied
vigorously this spring in the western
part Of New York state to test the pos
sibility of preventing the natural
spread of this pest. Specialists of the
United States Department of Agricul-
tnre in charge of the work have COM
pleted their plans, which will be car
ried out in cooperation with state
agencies.
The infested area where the expert
ment Is to be tried out borders on Lake
Erie and partly on that section of Can
ada where the corn bOrer made its ap-
pearance last year. The fight Is to be
carried against the insect while in its
winter quarters. The corn stubble
and refuse that have been lying in the
fields since last years harvest will be
cleaned up and burned.
Meanwhile, as another method Of at,
tack, thousands of cocoons of SMALL
wasp-like insect whose grub has been
found to be a parasitic enemy of the
corn borer are being sent to the Uni
ted States by representative of the
department who is In southern France
studying the enemies of the pest. Thus
far about 5000 cocoons have been re-
ceived at the Boston Office Of the de-
partment, where they are hatched out
and the winged insects liberated in
hundreds in infested fields. The Eu-
ropean corn borer, which has been
known In this country but few
years, is looked upon as one Of the
most dangerous insect pests that have
made their appearance in the United
States. Some fears are entertained
that it will eventually make its way
to the corn belt. Infestations Of the
pest occur in sections of New York
and Massachusetts,, where federal
quarantine to check the spread Of the
insect are In force.

GOSLINGS, NEED GREEN FEED
Very Little Grain Is Required Until
Fowls Are Fully Feathered-
Water is Essential.

Goslngs do not need feed until they
are 80 hours old or more, when they
should be given stale bread soaked In
milk or water, to which finely chopped
boiled eggs may be added. Feed three
or four times daily for the first two
or three weeks, with chopped grass or
some other green feed added, this lat
ter to be increased In quantity from
the first. Plenty Of fresh, clean wa
ter should be supplied, and five per
cent Of fine grit or sharp sand may
be added to the feed or kept In
hopper before the goslings.
After two or three weeks, IL the
goslings have q good grass range, they
need only one light feed daily Of
mash made up Of two parts shorts
and one part Of cornmeal or ground
oats or ground barley. After they are
six weeks old, II they stffi need extra
feed, change the mash to equal parts
shorts, cornmeal and ground oats, with
five per cent meat scrap. Where the
pasture is good, many goslings are
raised from the time they are two or
three weeks old to fattening time with
cut any grain feed, but the addition
Of a mash as described above is an ad-
vantage at all times. Whole grains are
not usually fed until the goslings are
wen feathered.

Warmth 10 Required.
Tomatoes naturally grow in a warm
climate and require plenty Of warmth
from the start. The plants should be
kept at about living-room tempera-
ture until few days before they are
to be set in the garden; then they
should be gradually exposed to out
door conditions to harden them. After
they are set In the garden 1t may be
necessary to cover them for few
nights with several thicknesses of
newspaper to protect them from the
cold.
Tomatoes require moderately rich
soil, not too rich, but just such soil
as will grow good crop Of corn or
potatoes. A little well-rotted manure
can be worked into the spot where
each plant Is to be set and table
spoonful of high-grade fertilizer sprin-
kled over q space about one foot in
diameter and mixed with the soil will
aid In giving the plant good start.
Planting distances will depend upon
whether the plants are to be pruned
to a single stem and trained to stakes
or are to be allowed to grow accord
ing to their natural habit Of spread
ing over the ground. If the plants
are to be trained they may be set in
rows as close as three feet, and spaced
18 inches in the row. II they are not
to be trained the plants should be set
three to four feet apart in each direc-
tion.

SCOUTS

LEAVES FOR WORK IN FRANCE

Lorne w. Barclay, director OF the
national council, department of Edu'

again been loaned for the summer to
the American committee for devastated
France of which Miss Anne Morgan
Is chairman. Mr.. Barclay sailed for
France In May and will there direct
FIVE scout camps. This work Is prov
ing a notable contribution to the up
building of war-stricken France. AS
Mr.. Barclay said In his recent report:
"These boys lived In ruined homes;
they have been out Of school for five
years; there Is no place for them to
find companionship In their villages
unless they 60 to the wine shops.
They have suffered so much that they
are undeveloped physically and mental

cation and recreation. They only ask
the chance to grow into manhood with
all the best scout ideals Of courage,
self-denial, honesty and endurance"

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence Of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root 10
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the az.
tonishing statement that one reason why
90 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is 90
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
ut all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.

great preparation send ten cents to Dr..
