Word of Saxon origin.

The word "step' in "step-father' or
"step-mother" is Of Anglo-Saxon origin,
and is derived from "steop," meaning
bereft. 1t was first applied to chill.
dren who had been bereft of a parent
thus an orphan was called, in Old
English, a "step-bairn." In those days
"step-father" was one who took on
the duties of father to an orphan.
Nowadays, of course, the term step
child" is applied to the child Of a hus-

Chinese literature could exercise a
beneficent influence on our own. 1t
proves for example-and this contrary
to the doctrine of our romantic
Freudians-that a great poetry can
exist by other virtue than its sexual
interest. 1t offers a resolution Of our
toO-favorite antinome between ro-
manticism and classicism, for 1t is a
literature both human and human
istic; literature that is classical
without being mummified. American
poetry could learn this from the Chi
nese. Malcolm Cowley in the Dial.

.FrIendless Flowers.

It has recently been discovered that
flowers, like human beings, have
friends and enemies in their own
world. II certain varieties are put to-
gether In a vase some of them will
droop almost as soon as they are
placed in the water. Sweet peas, for
instance, will not live in company.
Some flowers, such as the mignonette,
lily of the valley, and shirley poppy
have bad effect on almost all neigh
bors, and are practically friendless.

suits. 1t is not injurious to the cot
ton plant and is very nearly as p0is-
onous to the worms as paris green,
and much more so than lead arsenate.
In addition, however, there are
large variety of other arsenicals
which can be used for leaf worm con-
troll with satisfactory results. These
include such as zinc arsenate, mag
nesium arsenate, London purple and
numerous other trade mixtures Of
arsenicals. In view of .he present
shortage, it is going to be necessary
and advisable for the farmer to take
practically any one Of these when
can be secured and any of them will
accomplish satisfactory leaf worm
control.

RAIL LAW LAUDED
BY BOSTON & MAINE
Says 1921 Results Should Not
Be Laid to Legislation
outlook Is Optimistic.

BosToS. April 5.-The annual report
OF the Boston and Maine Railroad made
public tonight charac.~ 'izcs the trans
portation act of 1890 as .the most con-
structive piece OF transportation legis-
lation since the beginning OF Federal
regulation in 1887" u says that the
discouraging results OF railroad opera
tion in 1921 should not be interpreted
as a failure OF the principles OF the act"
The report shows a net loss OF ST.
34S,0S6 in 1921. as compared with a
deficit OF S17.132.4Sl in 1920. The net
operating revenue was $4,456.27S. as
against a net operating deficit Of
ss.3S6,6S7 in 1920.
THE business stua ton in recent
weeks" the report says. "is showing
signs of revival, and with downward
trend In expenses any substantial inn
provement in traffic should be immedi-
ately reflected in lower operating ratios.
Should this result he realized it viii
rot mean that the financial and other
problems of the railroads have been
solved, and It ought not to be used as
lever to force down rates. While in
evitably there will be rate readjust-
mcnts, it should be borne in mind that
a. during the war railroad rates and
railroad wages generally Jagged behind
those In industry, so it is inevitable that
they will lag behind in the return TO
pre-war conditions"
To minimize the deficit. the report
continues, every effort was directed
toward operating economies. The av-
erase number OF employees on the paw
rolls was reduced from maximum or
S4,l3S In September. 1920. to minimum
or 26,161 in May, 1921. Shops were
closed for considerable periods. passen
ger train service has been substantially
reduced and many stations have been
discontinued as agencies"
The report says the work OF physical
valuation of the company's property Is
ABOUT completed, and tentative figures
informally given by the bureau of vaf-
uation indicate the cost OF reprodue-
tion new of the property, plus the mar
ket value Of lands, including leased and
controlled lines. as Of June 80, 1914. as
S232,43l,214, as compared with the book
value of the same date OF S214,461.14s.
Whatever basis the commission adopts
IN fixing the final valuation, il seems
inevitable that the amount will be sub
stantially in excess OF the book value"
The funded debt on December 81
1921, was S124.456,27 an increase of
S1.so9.S00. There was no floating debt
outstanding.
The report announces the company's
intention to equip as many through
trains as possible with steel cars and
to sell advertising space in cars and
stations.

Overproduce Cotton Curtains.

The ory OF overproduction IS heard
again in the land. This time 1t IS raised
by manufacturer of cotton lace cur
tains. With prices OF raw cotton or Z
points more than last years quotations
and those OF yarns roflecting a similar
advance, he declares that quotations for
cotton curtains, such as marauisette. re-
fleet decrease Of approximately so per
cent. compared with last seasons prices.
That apparent contradiction is said 20
tc because OF overproduction last year
and consequent failure to llquidate
stocks. When that phase of the situn-
ton is cleared, however. the manufac-
turer predicts rapid advance In the
price of the finished merchandise.
