SPRAY TREES FROM AIRPLANE

The novel experiment of spraying a grove of trees from an airplane, the first ever attempted in the United States. was made on Aug. over the farm of Harry A. Carver, near Troy, Ohio, to prevent ravages of worms which have twice practically defoliated his grove of 5000 catalpa trees. The plane, piloted by Lieut.. John A. Mac ready, air service. and carrying F. Dormoy, McCook field, designer, who constructed the sitter used to spray the arsenate of lead powder, flew within twenty or twenty-five feet of the top of the trees releasing the powder, which was carried by the wind and air currents from the ships pro- peller into every part of the grove. Treatment of trees in this manner saves much time and labor as an air plane in few minutes can do work which would require a number of men and many pump sprays several days. Ar Service Bulletin.

LONDON'S ROMAN WELL

The average flow of the Thames over TeddlngtOn weir during the last ten years has been 630,OO0,0O0 gallons a day. The average flow during this summer has been 33,OOO,OO0 gallons day. Where old friends have failed LOndoners have turned with renewed faith to the ancient wells. which by some freak of underground nature re- main full, cool and refreshing. Many of the big places in the city have these artesian wells of their own. Australia house in the Strand Is independent of the water main; so, too, is the Bank of England. But the most curious pri- vate supply of all is the Roman bath in Strand lane, where David Copper field was wont to take a plunge.

NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES

The senior class dance Friday eve ming was perhaps the biggest success of the season. There was a large crowd of students, faculty and towns people present. The hall was decor ated with growing plants, pretty lamp shades with rugs and leather cushion ed furniture.
 The music was said by all to be the best yet. The Fully Sisters from Prescott furnished the music with a five-piece orchestra. There were IS dances with four extras, arranged on novel and very pretty programs. The programs were made by the senior girls in the form of dancing couple, hand-painted and cut cut. Added to the beauty of these were the lovely evening gowns made especially for the occasion. Blackberry punch was served all evening. At one o'clock with feeling of mingled regret and satisfaction the dance was finished.
 The senior-faculty banquet last Thursday evening was the largest of its kind ever held there. It is cus- tomary for the faculty to give this dinner for the graduating classes. There were 120 guests present. Of these 51 were seniors, "A faculty mem- bers and 45 faculty guests.

J. T. Rush, who was for long time at Grand Canyon and knows the Su- pal Indians very we'll, says their plight as tribe is pathetic. There are only about 60 of them left. Var ious causes have contributed to their decrease. There was an epidemic of measles. The medicine men treated it by putting the patient in hogan, naked where they kept him while they threw water on hot stones on the floor until he was nearly cooked. Then they took him out and threw him in Cataract creek. In an hour or so he could be counted on to need no more treatment, except funeral services.
 The Supais' live in Cataract Canyon and a big waterspout there a few years ago killed a great many. Meas les, the flu, the water-spout and tendency toward race suicide are the causes contributing to their diminish ing number.
 Cataract Canyon is the first gash in the rim of Grand Canyon west of the Little Colorado river and is about a hundred miles west of the Little Col orado and fifty miles west of the Fl Tovar hotel.
 To get down into the canyon the visitor has to walk or ride horseback down a seven-mile trail. There is an agent at the reservation, and school, the children attending being fed and clothed.
 Big Jim, chief of the Supais, is the Indian chief who was decorated by King Albert of Belgium when he wis ited Grand Canyon a couple of years ago. Big Jim proudly wears the med al on all occasions. He had it on re- gently when he visited the Fl Tovar to see the Shriners and Masons who stopped there on their way to their national conventions. Big Jim also wore a silk hat, a tightly buttoned Prince Albert coat and laced boots.
 Just why pr. A. J. Mackey's friends insist on loading him with information that has nothing at all to do with his profession he doesn't explain. Per haps they are in on the secret. If they are, that explains it. Here is what one of his friends recently gave him and insisted he memorize it. It is entitled, Rules for Ruling Wife"
 Every married man knows that there are no infallible rules for rul- ing a woman.
 But every bachelor THINKS he knows a few, and never hesitates to whisper them confidently into the poor innocent bridegroom's ear.
 Here they areas far as have been able to gather them.
 1. Start right. Guard your inde- oendence with your life! Never hu- nor wife by explaining why you are going out or when you are coming pack.
 2. Don't flatter her. When you are ,empted to compliment her on her ooks or her cooking, control yourself. Be strong.
 8. Assert yourself from the start. Every woman loves a master" Show ,er that she is, after all, only your 2ib-and that you are IT.
 4. When your wife talks, never isten. It is much more important hat you finish reading the sporting ,age.
 5. Don't begin by wasting your money on theater tickets and flowers
