TO DESTROY INSECT PESTS
Two Forms of insecticides Necessary
for Successful Protection OF
Plants and Foliage.

Do not waste your time spraying
paris green on insects that suck the
juices from plants and foliage, such
as lice, green, black and white aphis
or fly, mealy bug, red spider and scale,
by thrusting their proboscis into the
leaf or stem, for they are not affect
ed by stomach poisons. They must
be destroyed by contact Insecticides.
Those in powder form kill by clos
ing the breathing pores in the Insects
skin, or in fluid form by being abb
sorbed through these pores, the Amer
lean Forestry Magazine points out.
The best contact insecticides in pow
der form are hellebore, slug shot and
tobacco dust. The best In fluid form
are aphine, black leaf 40, fish (whale)
Oil soap, nicotine tobacco extracD,
kerosene, miscible oil and lemon oil.
Insects that eat plants, foliage, vege-
tables, fruits, flowers, etc., whether
bugs, beetles, worms, caterpillars or
slugs are more quickly and effectu-
ally destroyed with poisonous sto-
machic insecticide such as arsenate OF
lead, paris green or hellebore. These,
IL applied according to directions, are
so diluted as to be harmless to vege-
tation and to animal life. Less pol
sonous stomachic and contact insecti-
cides are kerosene emulsion. slug
shot, etc.

George was in respondent mood.
"But, Mabel, dear" he said, marriage
is out of the question just now. You
seem to have forgotten that I'm poor
clerk on meager salary"
"Oh, George, don't let poverty inter-
fere with our happiness. We can live
on one meal day, if necessary"
'But you know nothing of household
duties, sweetheart. Why, you can't
even cook"
Indeed, can. love. I have kept it
secret from you but the time has come
for my confession. George, dear, got
a certificate from a domestic science
school three months ago."
The young man gasped. "My dar-
ling" he said, "come to my arms. 1t

a day will be more than enough"

BIG TREE YIELDED TO AGE
Chestnut In Which Washington 10
Said to Have Hidden coIlapses
ut Yonkers, New York

Maybe there's no truth In the ira
dition that George Washington once
hid in the hollow trunk Of the great
chestnut tree that until recently stood
In the front yard of Charles r. Coy,
Yonkers, New York. But folk there
about believe he did, just as they be-
lieve that the tree was 700 or 300
years old when it died few years
ago, and was the oldest and biggest
tree of any variety not only In west"
chester county but in New York state.
The trunk, which was about IS feet
tall and about 80 feet In circumfer-
ence, according to Mr.. Coy, was cut
down by the department of public
works of Yonkers, and it's dismem-
bered remains carted away. Said Mr..
Coy:
Before 1t died that tree produced
the biggest and sweetest-tasting
chestnuts ever saw. After It's death
nj vine that covered 1t made 1t still
an object of beauty, just as its vast
size and age made it an object OF ad-
miratiOn.
"The top was broken off about the
time it died. / never knew It's exact
height. But I do know that a deal
of tradition had grown up around
1t and that it commonly was rated the
largest tree in this part of the country.
am sure it was the biggest In this
county,"

POSTAL SAVINGS BULLETIN.


system is today marking its tenth an
niversary by issuing new postal
savings card which will displace the
10-cent postal savings card which has
been in use since the establishment OF
the system on January /, 1911.
The new card will be furnished free
of cost and when ten 10-cent postal
savings stamps have been affixed to
it will be accepted at any depository
office as deposit Of 81 or it may be
redeemed in cash. The, outstanding
feature of the new card is the transla-
ton into twenty-four foreign langu-
ages of the statement that the faith OF
l the United States is solemnly pledged
to the payment of deposits made with
the system.
The service was first established at
forty-eight postoffices, one in each
state, on January 1, 1911, and al
though hampered by many restrictions
as to rate of interest and maximum
amount allowed on deposit, it has
shown remarkable progress Post
master General Burleson announces
that the amount on deposit today is
more than s162,OOO,000 and its de-
posts have long since passed the one
half million mark.
AS predicted by its proponents in
the days before the passage OF the
original postal savings act, our foreign
born citizens have been the principal
patrons of the system. Taught in
their native countries to look to the
government to safeguard their saw
ings, they naturally expect this gov
eminent to do likewise. In the present
flood tide Of immigration, each new
conner as he leaves the port of entry,
receives leaflet in his own language
Quilting the method of operation OF the
United States postal savings system
and urging upon him the desirability
of continuing in this country the
practice of thrift which has been
so necessary in the country he has just
left. The service is, therefore, one OF
the most potent factors in furthering
the Americanization movement.
Many banks, usually savings banks,
prior to the establishment of the sys-
tenn felt that the postal savings sys-
tenn would be strong competitor but
experience has shown that the postal
savings system draws its patrons not
from depositors in established and
well conducted banks but from among
those who otherwise would not place
their money in any banking institu-
ton whatever.
The original act of congress re-
stricted the total amount to be placed
on deposit at $500 and the deposit of
this amount was limited to not more
than 500 per month. Later the
monthly limitation was entirely re-
moved and the maximum amount in
creased first to $1,000 and then to the
present amount, $4,000. Postmaster
General Burleson, in the annual re-
port just submitted to congress rec
ommends increasing the rate of in
terest to be paid depositors and action
by congress will, no doubt, be taken
along these lines within the near flu
ture.

Courts and Common Sense

The Corvallis Gazete mes whose veneration for courts
is exceeded only by its idolaty of corporations takes
ceon to the assertion of the The Capital Journal that the
decision of Illinois courts holding that there is divine
right of kings statute to shield governor from answering
for crimes, remarkable for it's sense" and
declares:
We don't think any thing remarkable
decisions accepted
founded n sense.
Court decisions based upon precedent and pressure of
public opinion and is considered any
part OF judicial training practice When occasional
Judge, like Henry McGnn replaces precedent with
mon sense In order that justice may obtain he is regarded
with legal horror Common in courts that its
exercise is consisting in the presentation the
unusual.
What some bewigged juris held musty centuries
ago is OF more moment in most any American court than
commonsense conflicting opinion of 40 different courts
In as many states is more important in fact the lawyer
that dgout the most citations of previous decisions
favor his stand wins his and the lawyer who bases his
appeal upon common is predestined to failure
Courts were primarily devised to protect vested rights and
feuda privileges Administration of justice rested with the
king and the first duty of the shield the divine
right OF kings and their appoinees including the courts
Though the evolution of democracy has gradually altered the
character of courts to conform they have entirely lost
the old viewpoint reflected in the prestige of precedent
and in the superimpotance of technicaty and qubbe
When court holds that the divine right doctrine does not
apply to the executive head of the state be held
accountable for sins other citizens are is
decson-although doubtless highly displeasng to the
GazeteTimes which probably views with CONSERVATION

of authority.

There is less than one square

little more than three square feet

Hot Weather
To Cut Down
Hop Estimates

Continuation of hot weather in
this part of the country will force
a reduction in the original hop
crop estimate of 10000 bales for
this year, according to advices
now being sent by commiss on
houses to British buyers.
Upland yards are already show
ing some drought, and the crop
in the hills will undoubtedly wit
ness a deal of shedding before
picking, and will largely be gained
from the tops. Around Harrisburg.
in the bottom lands, where the
"earlies" will be mostly harvested,
the crop is looking exceptionally
good, experts whoh ave been in the
field say.
The price to pickers has been
definitely set locally and in other
centers as SO cents a box, and COM
mon labor in the yard to So day.
Word from Independence states
that these are the prices agreed
upon by growers there at a recent
meeting.
Hop men affirm that this years
yield will be the cleanest ever pro-
duced in Oregon and should be
exceptionally good in quality if
clean picking is adhered to.
