says: Snakes are extremely useful
in controlling the numbers of rodents
That very few snakes are venomou:
is too often forgotten, and all species
are wantonly destroyed. People
throughout the country should ac-

snakes and learn the folly of killing
them Farmers especially should do

! is a distinct deviation from what a
great many biologists are striving to
do nowadays, and that is to ease OF
in the general desire to slay the small
er wild creatures.
Not only do we slay for sport. We
deliberately continue the killing or
many forms with the attitude that
their creation was a mistake; that
they have no right to exist on the
same earth as man; that they are use
less. This determination of many
forms has disturbed the balance of ma
ture.
The assertion that birds and toads
are the farmers friends and that
snakes destroy these useful types de-
mands a bit of advice about the actual
status of birds, toads and snakes
from the standpoint of economic value
to the farmer. Birds and toads are de-
stroyers of insects and of great eco
nomic Importance on that account.
Unfortunately, owing to drainage, an
other necessity of civilization, the tre-
mendously useful toad is becoming
absolutely extinct over large areas.
The toad requires swamps or shallow
pools, as it lays it's eggs in the water
and begins life as a tadpole. In these
areas we must now depend on the
birds
AS birds are intensely alert and re-
sort to flight from the ground when
pursued, they are elusive prey for
snakes. We know of course, that they
do fall victims, but the number of
birds destroyed by snakes is negligible
when compared to the number of ro-
dents pursued and captured by SER
pents.
The plea we make for the lives of
the harmless snakes results from their
destruction of the many teeming spe-
cies of injurious injurious to
the products of man. And there are
many observant farmers who are very
careful about preserving the lives of
the useful types of creatures on their
lands.

OLD AND NEW NEWSPAPERS IN
JAPAN

Journalism in the modern sense is
little over fifty years old in Japan.
1t has existed in primitive form,
however, for three centuries and more.
What Japan had was a sort of news
letter, issued occasionally, says the
Japan Yearbook, 1920-21' (Tokyo)
containing latest scandals in town
and the happenings at the Shogun's
Court" These sheets were popularity
called "Yomiuri" meaning 'sold by
hawking about" and were printed
from wooden blocks We read furth-
er:
The first periodical publication
which went under the name of a
newspaper was the Batavia Shimbun,
printed in Ledo toward the close of
the fifties of the last century. Its con-
tents were mostly translations from
Dutch papers, published in Batavia
1t was followed by Shimbunshi at
Yokohama and the Seiyo Zasshi,
Chuggi Shimbun and Koko Shimbun,
in Tokyo. None of these, however,
was printed more than once week.
The first japanese daily newspaper
made its appearance at Yokohama in
1871. 1t was called the Yokohama
Mainichi Shimbun, since transferred
to Tokyo, where it is still in existence
1t was followed in quick succession by
the Nichi Nichi in 1872. Hochi in
1873, Yomiuri in 1874, and so on. The
spread of education and the steady
growth of wealth, combined with
epoch-making events, like the wars
with China and Russia, and the in
auguration OF. a representative system
of government, have led in recent
years to remarkable development
of the press both in its influence and
its circulation, There are now some
that claim daily circulation of over
a quarter of million copies.

a GREAT THOUGHT WELL Ex-
PRESSED


The following editorial from the
Lakeland Telegram has received warm
commentator from number of Flor
ida newspapers:
When business failure, suicide
or other revealing crisis occurs, we
realize that here is man or woman
who has been carrying a heavy bur-
den. We wish we had known the situ-
alton SO that we would have been more
kindly and generous.
And the next thought is that there
are about us other men and women
whose worries and modes of depres-
sion no tragedy has yet revealed. Who
are they? We do not know: that is
just it. If we knew, we should be
helpful, friendly and cheering in our
attitude to all these people. And
they would notice our evident inten-
ton to be kind and neighborly, even
If there was nothing we could really
do, and they would feel a glow of
friendly response and appreciation
that would make the world seem a
better place and life more worth the
effort it takes to live it. 1t is too
bad that we do not know.
The only thing we can do is to act
as If we knew-to extend sympa-
thetic friendship to all, in order that
no one who needs it may suffer from
its lack. Let every morning greeting
be as cheerful as if we knew it was
needed to tighten an almost intoler-
able load of anxiety. Let every help
full act be done as promptly and gem
erously as if we knew it would hold
back fellow-mortal from financial
or spiritual ruin
But we do not do things that way.
We get hurried or absorbed in our own
interests and perplexities and, far
from being always helpfully cheerful
and cheerfully helpful, we seem queer,
Indifferent, selfish to hearts made
more than ordinary sensitive by wor-
ry, disgrace or disappointment
So, speaking for the general run
Of folks, to those who today are in
trouble or gloom, we ask you to re-
member that we, the general run Of
are not Indifferent to your struggles
and sorrows. 1t is just that we do
not know. Why even if you could tell
us your burdensome thoughts and con-
ditions, we couldn't really know them
as you yourselves do. When we seem
to be lacking in appreciation, gener-
osity, sympathy, be tolerant with US.
Remember that we do not know.

How to Remove Mold From
Leather Goods
Protecting leather goods from mold
during warm weather by preparations
usually employed for that purpose, is
said by the Bureau of Chemistry of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture, to be dangerous, owing to
the highly poisonous materials of
which they are manufactured. The
bureau says:
Leather articles, such as harness,
shoes. suitcases, and bookbindings,
are almost certain to mildew if kept
in warm, damp, and dark place. This
means that particular care should
be taken of leather articles during the
spring and summer. Mold will not
seriously damage leather unless it re-
mains too long, but it will change the
color and in that way do considerable
damage to some articles.
The simplest way to keep leather
from mildewing is to keep it in we'll
ventilated, dry, well-lighted place, pre-
ferably one exposed to sunlight, a
cheap and effective disinfectant
Molds make little growth in sunshine.
When mildew has developed it
should be wiped off with a damp cloth
or washed off with soap and warm
water, and the leather oiled lightly
with castor or neats-foot oil and we'll
dried afterwards. These simple meth
DDS for preventing and removing mold
are satisfactory and safe.

LOSS or WATERMELoNs DUE TO
sTEM-END ROT

An inspection of watermelons at
the selling end showed that there was
loss of about 16 per cent. during the
season of 1919, which was an average
season This year the state of Flor
ida will ship between 5000 and 5000
cars of melons If we have a cores
ponding loss there will be about 1880
cars of melons dumped at the market
end Whether these melons are con-
signed or sold f. o. b. shipping point,
someone has to bear the loss and this
loss is eventually borne by the grow
ers.
The main cause of this loss is stem
end decay This disease is caused by
a fungus which gets into the melons
after the stems are cut in the field.
This spore does not attack melon
unless through cut or bruised sur
face. The fungus works very rapid
ly. The fungus causing the disease
gets onto the cut stem and in few
hours it has started growth, and in
five or six days is far enough into the
melon to cause it to rot, so that it is
necessary to recut the stem after they
are placed in the car.
The cost of treatment is very
slight. The material for treating an
entire car will not cost more than 25
cents. The labor involved in putting
it on should not cost more than a dol
lar. The treatment has to be applied
but once, but in such a way that the
average person can do it properly. In
some sections there was much more
stem-end decay last year than in other
sections, due, in nearly every case, to
the treatment being improperly ap
piled.
In making the paste, dissolve eight
ounces of blue stone in 3 IL quarts of
water and bring this to a boil In an
other dish mix ounces of starch with
a pint of cold water. Stir this care
fully, and when it is milky mixture,
pour it into the dissolved blue stone
solution. Let this continue to boil
until it thickens into the paste. Do
not let it become too thick or it will
be difficult to apply. When cold it
should be about the thickness of the
average paint. This makes it disin-
fectant, and will prevent stem-end de-
cay of watermelons in transit. The
county agent will be glad to assist
anyone in applying the treatment
properly. A little care exercised in
saving this valuable Florida crop will
return many times the cost of the
treatment, and this treatment is rec
commended because it has been thor
oughly tested, through a period of
years mad has given excellent results.

WHAT EVERY WOMAN SHOULD
KNOW

The odor of gasoline that clings to
the hands after cleansing an article
in it can be removed by rubbing a
handful of salt over the hands.
When skirt gets shiny take a
thin piece of muslin and wiring it out
of clear witch hazel. Lay this over
the shiny spot and hold a hot iron
over it to draw up the steam; then
place the cloth over the wrong side of
the garment and press with iron until
muslin is dry.
If you cannot get your white canvas
shoes to look real white, clean them
with white soap suds, rinse we'll and
dry, then use one of the good tinting
solutions and make them gray or
the new pabble shade.
When kid gloves get spotted by
rain or water do not trust to cleans
ing to restore them. Before the spots
dry and while the gloves are still on
the hands rub the gloves gently with
a damp cloth, not a wet one.
You can make nice hemstitching
without drawing threads if you baste
the hem the desired width, then with
a large punchwork needle hemstitch
but do not catch the hem. Then sew
down the hem with an ordinary needle,
picking up the long thread as you
go along.
One housewife wraps blankets in
newspapers before putting them away
for the summer and as further pre-
caution she cuts yellow soap into
small pieces and lays them between
the folds of the blankets. She de-
clares this is positive preventative
