Bio Surplus For Bonus.

Trenton, N. ]. - The New Jer-
sey soldiers bonus commission will
officially close its business about July
with an une-pended balance of ap.
proximately 100000.
In November, 1920, the people ap-
proved bond issue Of $4,000, 900 for
payiDss bonus to former service men
and 1t Is estomated by financial off,
GERS that not more than sf1 200, OO1
will be required for the bonus and adj
ministration expenses
The prospect OF having $4,000 on
Its hands has placed the commission
in somewhat of a quandry., Under the
state constitution, the money cannot
be transferred to any cher account,
the bonus being contract Irrepeal-
able until the obligation Of the 2O-year
bonds is discharged. There Is the pos
sibility that State Treasurer Read will
keep the balance on deposit at 2 per
cent or else have it invested at q
higher rate until 1871, when the last
of the bonus bonds will be paid off.

VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE
NOTES

Cabbage Maggot and Control. Re-
cognized by plants having a tendency
to wilt in the sun, and the foliage has
an unhealthy or blush cast. If you
take up the plant and he soil around
it, you VIII find small white maggot
about Ia inch long. The roots of
ne plants will be partly eaten by this
Maggot and in decayed condition.
The adult Of this Maggot is black,
two-winged fly about the size of our
house fly. The fly deposits its eggs
in the soil crevices and even on the
plant itself These eggs hatch in a
relatively short time into the Mag
gots.
Control:-Carrosive Sublimate SOL
ution. This is made by dissolving /
or. Of carrosive sublimate in 10 gai-
Ions Of water. Pour ! teacupfull Of
this solution around the roots of the
plants every II days, This kills the
eggs and Maggots. You can secure
this powder and prepare Tour own
solution or can get it at the High
School for cents per gallon which
merely covers the cost Of the car
rosie sulphte power, No matter
where you get this, treat your cab
bage at once.
Potato Flea Beetle
This little insect is less than 1-20
inch long and you have to look very
carefully to find it as it jumps when
alarmed. 1t likes to work best from
the under side Of the leaves, you can
recognize its presence by the shot
hole effect on the leaf. 1t devours
the foliage Of the plant and this les
sens the crop. Also makes fine
place for the entrance of diseases.
1t not only works on the potato but
on Cucumbers, Squash, Melons etc.
Control:-Apply Bordeaux Mixture
as repellant. Spray thorghly and
be sur "a spray under size of the
pi II the flea BEETLE works here
the n,ysss add two pounds of Arsenate
of Lead per SO gallons of Bordeaux
Mixture to control other insects. Ex-
anime your plants at once and spray
Information on making Bordeaux
Mixture can be obtained from the
Vocation Agriculture department Of
the Belington High School.

LEGION HAS CAMPAIGN
FOR NEW MEMBERS

The local post of the American
Legion started this week member
ship campaign which viii be conduct
ed for month by all Legion posts in
West Virginia.
The aim Of the state wide cam
paign is to doubt the membership in
: West Virginia in the next thirty days.
Although many posts have neared
their maximum, there are others
which have been tagging behind and
which will have triple their present
membership that the drive may be
a success.
As an incentive for Legion workers,
prizes will be offered in the various
districts for individual .legionaires
who secure the largest number of
new members.
DR.. John O'Brien, of ( Pullman,
third vice-commander, has stated the
prize offerings by announcing that
he will give silver cup as trophy
to the man who brings in the most
new members in his district. Other
district officers will follow O'Brien's
lead.
The state membership at the pre-
sent time exceeds that of year ago,
but state officers are not satisfied
|, with even this showing.
The department adjutant, Bernard
e. Kaiser, has originated clever
slogan, death To Our Nemesis. !"
He illustrates this by means of a
white elephant, to whom is fed
membership cards. As the revenous
creature devours these cards the ink
off them turns the animal black. The
elephants rear legs are now. black
and as more cards are fed to him,
the remainder Of his body will black
en-, thus putting an end to Nemesis
tie West Virginia Legiol }, white
elephant.
Nemesis will not die however, UNI
less every individual legionaire does
his part and puts his most earnest eff
forts into the campaign.

IN this country If figured under the
American valuation plan. Now, he
must charge in order to get enough
to cover both the original cost and
the duty. If he sells the goods in
this country for $500, the 25 per
cent tax on the American valuation
plan would be so cents and this add
ed to the $1.20 would make the goods
cost him total of $170. You see
from this that the import tax must
be figured as part of the value Of
the, goods in America, or, in effect,
tax on the tax.
"The< Senate Finance Committee
thought this was too complicated to
be practical in conducting business
SO they reported in favor of retaining
the old system Of figuring the tax
on the value Of the goods in the coun-
try where produced but giving the
President a large amount Of power
in changing rates of duty whenever
facts are proven to show that the inn
port tax is not sufficient to protect
the American producer from destuc-
tive competition from abroad This
is very complicated subject When
l was in Washington heard Senator
Smoot, Of Utah, deliver long adj
dress in the Senate in which he ex-
planned it fully. Senator Smoot said
that few people understand this diff
ference between the American valua-
tion and foreign valuation and in
talking with a number Of people on
the train on my home, found that
that is true.
Il have tried to tell you in few
words the difference as it was ex-
planned by Senator Smoot. If you
were old enough to be taking an act
i've interest in politics / would advise
you to send to Senator Smoot and
get copy of his speech. think it
is worth while for you to know in a
general way the principal question
which is being discussed in connec-
ton with the bill which is now oc-
cuping the attention Of Congress.
The Republicans are trying to pass a
bill which will make importers Of
| foreign goods pay more taxes for the
privilege Of selling their goods in the
United States. They are doing this
in order to keep the American mar
ket for the producers Of goods in
this country. They want to provide
more work and more wages for work
ing people in the United States. The
Democrats are opposing that bill
believing that it is best to buy goods
wherever you can buy the cheapes
even if American factories are CLOSED
"Now, I am tired after my long
ride on the train SO you run off tt
bed and perhaps will tell you more
about my visit to Washington some
| other time"
