psigh is determined BY the kind Of in.
iury done, for you are only wasting time
applying the methods for chewing insects
10 those that suck their food.
The first group, usually called chewing
insects. can generally be controlled by
poisoning their food al an advantageous
time with some Of the well known arseni-
cal compounds. The work Of chewing
insects is usually recognized by the rag
ged or perforated condition Of the foliage.
The second group, composed Of suck
ing insects, can be controlled by oily or
corrosive contact sprays applied direct
" to the bodies Of the insects. Ii is use
less TO attempt any control of sucking
insect by the application Of a stomach
poison. either to the surface OF in the
sap Of a food plant.

And now we may once more feast on
eggs. Eggs are not luxury when they
retail at 20 cents dozen, with hopes Of
getting cheaper. Fried eggs, boiled
eggs. scrambled eggs and omelets all will
have large share in the new spring

Of hardboiled eggs sliced and used with
lettuce and mayoiiaisse, are delightful,
while egg salad may be made in several
different ways as a luncheon addition.

Of your families, garnish ii well with
lettuce. serve il with relish of radishes,
horseradish or celery and, no matter What
it is. the most particular member of he

the onion is one Of the most healthy Of
all vegetables. One college president is
even known to keep cloves beneath the
cushions of all his living room chairs so
that he may chew them after his almost
daily onions. And this president is any
thing but plebeian. Although we may
not wish 10 follow in his footsteps. we
may with safety put little fresh green
onion in a salad of tomatoes and lettuce
and it will give exactly the right piquancy

HINTS ABOUT YOUR NEEDS.

Probably you have wondered what has
happened to friend husbands appetite
the last few weeks. Maybe you have
noticed that the vegetables and salads
that tasted so good in the xinfeT are los
ing their favor, but surely you know that
you are sick, yes sick. Of smelling and
cooking those everlasting beans and
prunes. Canned vegetables simply can
not be endured longer and rich salads
somewsy don't appeal to you any more.
But you must cook something. Al.
though nothing hii a man, Mr. Husband
must be kept alive, and the poor children
have rayenous appeiiies any time Of the
year. One Columbia woman said a few
days ago that she simply could not look
q bean in the face again. that she had
had them boiled, baked. fried and seal
loped aud had cooked the whole bean
family. but when we suggested that she
make a salad Of them, combining them
with head lettuce. pickles and radishes,
she took heart.
There Is no reason why you should not
have foods to gs with The season. Spring
is hcH both in calendar and in lempera-
iure now, and the heavy foods palatable
in winter seem stuify and rich. What We
crave is fresh crisp salad and vegetables

ENGLAND MENACE,
TOU. S., SAYS JUDGE
Jurist Would See United States
Demand Freedom for
Canada.

Chicago, Feb. 21.-That England
was a menace to the United States
and the menace must be removed be-
fore this country could be assured of
peace, was the declaration of Judge
Daniel f. Cohalan in an address at
a Washington Day dinner given by
the Committee of One Hundred for
an Irish Republic.
Judge Cohalan said that the Uni
ted States should insist on England s
freeing Canada and the West Indies
as basis of negotiations for the
settlement of her debt to this coun-
try declaring that England through
war preparations in those places was
preparing for conflict with the
United States.
THE British Empire must be dis
membered if the world is to have
peace" Judge Cohalan continued.
There are only three great pow
ers England, Japan and the u
nited States-and we should turn
our attention to helping Japan Gre
ate an equivalent of the Monroe Doc
trine which would read Asia for As
iatics.'
Let us encourage her to turn hel
attention west instead of east. Such
conduct on our part would not alone
relieve any tension between japan
and ourselves, but would recover from
Australia and Canada their fear o.
Japan and their dependence upor
the British feet. 1t would preserve
the peoples of Asia and prevent Eng
land or any other country from at
tempting to seize the lower half o.
Asia"

For the information Of the sew
eraI thousand Baptists in Lincoln
County we quote the following from
their state denominational paper:-
There can be no doubt that the day of
prayer and fasting which was OBJ
served generally by Baptists in the
South, during the campaign more
than year ago was very fruitful in
spiritual and material results. Now
we have another opportunity on
Wednesday. March End. to unite in
a DAY of prayer for the blessing of
God on our missionary, educational
and benevolent work. The pastors
and churches will do we'll to make
good use Of this opportunity. Make
your own plans for an all-day meet
ing or as many meetings in the
church that day as you choose. But
whether the people are in their
homes or in the church, let 1t be
understood that 1t is q day Of pray
er. 1t comes in the midst Of the
week Of prayer for Home Missions
which the w. M y. observes every
year.

etables the year round. The atu-
dents board costs them 80 per
month. Some one mistook the in
stitution for an Orphans Home the
other day. The fact is orphans could
about live there at the rate offered
and many probably do. The school
is God-send to young people, who
without it, might miss their chance
in life.
Domestice science. music, athletics,
as well as the literary branches are
furnishing ballast for life's future
struggle in the minds and muscle of
the students.
Mr.. Roy Thompson, of Brookha-
ven, occupies his position with be-
coming dignity and aptitude in his
attitude before the student body.
Mr.. Paul Burt had much to do
with putting the A. H. S. proposit-
ion over and no one, as we discov-
cred among teachers and pupils and
patrons, takes quite as strong a per-
sonal interest in the affairs of the
institution as Mr.. Burt. He has in
his minds eye, four new class rooms
needed, a dining room in the spa
cious basement, a natatorium for
which there is splendid natural "a
daptation and other, things we have
not space to mention. Electric
lights were installed in the dining
room the day that marked the visit
of the Brookhaven contingent. Wa
ter is furnished by pipes from a ma
tural spring mile away. All mod
ern .conveniences are in the hand
some new building. The principals
apartments, the guest room, the par
lor, not to say the great dining room
all remind one of great hotel. 1t
Is needless to say that after the boys
and girls finish" at A. H. S. they
will ''get a move on" any vicinity
where they locate and will radiate
the light of knowledge consecrated
by spiritual efficiency to the advan-
tage of the future of the people any
where they may be. The spiritual,
the mental and the physical are all
stressed at the A. H. S.><
The school expressed qualification
at Miss Ruth Douglass elecri2n to
the office Of President of the Older
Girls Conference at the recent con-
ference at Clinton. Ruth is the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. T.
Douglass and is spoken of as gift
ed girl and studious student.
Time and space forbid more than
this brief(?) mention at present.

by.

MORE HOUSES NEED
ED HERE AT ONCE
Both Residences and Business
Places Filled-Inyestment
Is a Safe One.

One Of the most important things
Brookhaven is in need of at the
present time. is the need of homes.
1t needs more business places also.
There are no vacant homes and no
business places standing empty.
From all directions come the in
sistent demand for places in which
to live. People want homes, they
need homes, they are clamoring for
homes! Why don't you. who live
in rented houses build homes? And
you who have money to invest, why
don't you build houses and get the
benefit of the rents?
Rents are higher today than ever
before in the history of the nation.
If you are renter you want to es-
cape this abnormal condition. If
you are landlord you should take
advantage of these opportunities and
secure more houses to rent. In
either case the answer is BUILD.
Brookhaven property with reasonable
location is not apt to decline in val
ue.
Lumber prices have fallen and
building is now possible upon an
economic basis. Rents have not
decreased and will not as long as the
country is a million homes short.
The situation offers a splendio on
portunity for the investor and to
the rent payer. Build now and take
advantage of it.
Ask your contractor to rengure
your contemplated home upon pres
ent prices. You will be surprised
in the difference in cost.
You, who are now living in rented
houses, pay out in rent each month
practically as much money as would
build you home and pay for it en-
tirely on the installment plan in a
few years time. You are only los
ing by waiting. If you would build
now, instead of continuing in the
rent payers rut, you would soon
have home paying actual cash di-
vidends in rental saved.
