The first group, usually called chew
ing insects, can generally be controlled
by poisoning their food at an adyan-
tageous time with some of the we'll
known srsenical compounds. The work
OF chewing insects is usually recog-
nized by the ragged or perforated con-
dltion OF the foliage.
The second group, composed OF
sucking insects, can be controlled by
oily or corrosive contact sprays applied
directly to the bodies Of the insects.
II Is useless to attempt any control OF
sucking insect by the application Of
a stomach poison either TO the surface
or in a sap OF a food plant. The
work of sucking insects is not so easily
lrecognized as that Of the chewing

IMPORTANCE OF GOOD ROADS
Most Towns Recognize imperative
Need Of improved Highways to
Secure Farm Trade.

The country town that has poor
roads radiating from 1t is badly handi-
capped, just as the farmer is who has
to haul his products over such roads.
Most towns recognize this and try to
get their share Of trade by making the
main thorOughfares %navigable at all
times with tOlerable loads. The town
that does not see the Importance of
good roads and the imperative need of
making them nassable to ordinary
traffic has need Of the jolt that is not
generally long delayed.
We sometimes hear the expression,
"a poor trading place." and instantly
we know the meaning Of it. We at
once know it refers to q town that has
fallen into a Rip Van Wrinkle sleep
III we are safe in assuming that such
a town lacks wideawake merchants
and the other necessary adjunct-gOod
roads.
When q farmer sells anything,
whether II be his weekly batch of
produce or a load of hogs or one of
wheat or cDrn he naturally considers
he difficulties of the haul. Other
things being equal. he chooses the
road with least hills and if the road
Of least resistance has well graded
and dragged highways. the town that
is handicapped with steep pulls and
poorly graded highways always is a
loser. 1t cannot be otherwise.
A corfbelt town exists. primarily,
by reason of the farm trade. When
this reaches a volume that lines the
streets with farm teams any good day
except the busiest times of the year.
we can be reasonably certain that the
merchants and roads are both attrac-
tive. And the opposite can be inferred
when the streets are bare. of farm
teams and cars. gs
Most towns recognize the fYalueesef
good roads as trade getters. sSaGae-
times the topography Of the c0WffAV
makes good roads aud eentte eNiHA

money is expended 10 get results. And

has consistently followed this practice.
The originally improved roads in Ma
ryland were comparatively inexpen-
sive, costing only what the taxpayers
were willing to pay for. The first few
years the average cost was less than
$4,000 a mile. In some cases the work
entailed considerable grading and
drainage but in others it amounted

Back Of, this announcement lies a
story seldom equaled in American
business and political biography. It
parallels the story Of another Guffey of
q preceding generation. For Joe Cuff
fey is a nephew Of old Col. James M.
Guffey, also Of Pittsburgh, said to have
made and lost more fortunes In oil
than any other person in the United
States. X
BY 1919, when the partnership was
reorganized as the Guffey-Gillespie Oil
company, it had become n of the
largest in the midcontinent field. In
addition, Guney & Gillespie, with 9TH
err .Pittsburghers, acquired 125,OOO
acres of oil lands in Colombia, and the
Colombia syndicate was formed.
Then "Agwi" entered the Mexican
field, organized the Atlantic Gulf Oil
company, and elected Guffey president.
Boosted Stock to $50.
Last summer Guffey found the bears
out cunning for Guffey- Gillespie stock,
although it had earned 50 a share the
year before. Guffey began the fight
which ended Tuesday in total defeat.
Putting In almost every dollar he had
and borrowing $2,OOO,O00, he formed q
pool to ''peg'' the stock with New York
and Pittsburgh friends.
Late in February Guffey's pool tried
to rout> the bears and boosted the stock
from % to 80. The effort exhausted
his strength, and the bears, buying IN
New York and selling by wire in Pitts
burgh,. flooded the latter market. When
the price reached 20, the Pittsburgh
banks called their loans.
The Tidewater Oil company took
over the stock held as collateral and
bought enough more to give it voting
control. Gnffey, Gillespie and the old
directors attempted to fight for places
in the reorganized company. Tide
watershed for their designations, and
called for a receiver.
