The Old Gardener Says

Currant worms are likely to steal

currant and gooseberry bushes are
not watched. Amateurs often fali 10
realize that there are two broods and
think that when they have given the
bushes a good spraying early in the
spring they have done away with the
nests for all the season They ava kt
n their mistake when they find the

lead can be used safely early In the
season. it is better to rely upon heile-
bore until after the fruit has been
picked. Be certain, though, that the
hellebore is fresh, for 1t soon loses

Canadians To Honor
American Historian

Ottawa, Oct. 25 CA. P.)-Organiza-
ton plans are well under way for an
observance of the one hundredth an
niversary of the birth of Francis
Parkman, the American historian.
who won his fame as the chrOniCler
of the early days of Canada.
A Canadian national committee has
been organized headed by Sir Arthur
Currie, principal of McGill Univer-
sity, with Lawrence j. BuIpce, pres
ident of the Canadian Historical AS
ISOLATION AS secretary. The commit
tee. probably the most representative
ever brought together in the Domin-
len, includes the prime minister of
Canada; the leader of the opposition,
prcmicrs of the provinces, represen-
tatives of all Canadian universities
and learned societies. and many Can
adams prominent in public and bus
mess life.
At a public meeting to he held in
Montreal, November 10, Jules j. Jus
scrand. Ambassador of France to the
United States, has been invited TO be
the principal speaker. Professor
Bliss Perry, of Harvard, and DR.. C.
W. Colby, former professor of his
tary at McGill University also will be
on the programme.
A permanent Canadian memorial
to Parkman also is being considered.
Suggestions as to the form this shall
take include research scholarships in
Canadian history, a chair in Cana
dian history at some of the universe
ties, or an appropriate monument at
one of the Canadian cities associated
with Parkman's historical writings.
Although Parkman was a New
Englander-he was born in Boston
the centenary of his birth is a sig
niticant occasion in Canada. of whose
early days he was the greatest his
torian. Laboring under serious phys
zeal handicaps. including blindness,
he brought a triumphant conclusion
to life's work and left to the world
a picture of New France which is a
romantic story of adventure, achieve
ment and pathfinding.

Wonders IF a Pinch of Dust

Well worth examining is the dust
that comes off the wings of moth,
when touched by the finger. Highly
magnified, it shows up exquisitely
colored and shaped scales. Some
are like arrow heads, some resemble
leaves. All are beautiful. A pinch
of ordinary dust reveals itself as a
most amazing collection of all sorts
of objects.
You see the flinty shells of those
tiny vegetable growths called dl-
atoms, the pollen of plants. atoms of
sand which look like pebbles and
fibres of cotton, wool, and so on,
each of which is curved or veined in
a different fashion.
A drop of pond water seen under
high magnification provides YOU
with an aquarium of such strange
shaped monsters that you hardly be-
lieve your eyes
A pinch of garden soil or leaf
from n living plant provides studies
almost equally interesting.

Malaria Worse Than Yellow Fever

How serious a thing malaria may
be has just been brought to light by
an examination of the employees OF
the Missouri Pacific Railroad made
by the United States Health Service.
This discloses that the Great plague
of Mediterranean Europe is today
creating havoc in an enterprise so
modern as railroadinc. 1t is the
most prevalent disease with which
the Missouri Pacific has to contend.
Ninety five per cent of all its hos
pital admissions and 40 per cent of
all it's sick cases are charGeable to
this infection. There is 4 prevalent
impression that railroad hospitals
exist mainly for injuries and surgical
cases, but such cases amounted to
only 10 per cent of the malaria
sufferers. And these statistics give
only part of the story: for malaria is
prominently walking" disease;
thousands have it who never get to
a hospital or even consult a doctor.
but keep at work in a hopeless kind
of way. Clearly one of the future
tasks of railroads especially in the
southern states. is that of cO-operat
ing with the government in warfare
upon this ever-prcscnt, most ener-
waiting of all diseases.-The Worlds

Valuable Household Hints

When using meat grinder for
drumming dry bread. a paper bag
over the end of the grinder will catch
the crums and prevent them from
being scattered.
To keep a large piece of cheese for
any length of time without molding,
pour melted paraffin over the cut
surface.
When boiling a number of small
articles. make a cheese cloth bag
and put them in 1t. In this way none
will he lost and all can be removed
quickly from the suds.
When boiling old potatoes, add a
slice of lemon to the water in which
they are to be cooked and you will
find that the potatoes will not dis
color. A teaspoon of vinegar will
also help.
If glass curtains are dipped in a
little starch when Numbered. put
back on the curtain rods while wet
and hung at the windows. they will
look like new without ironing.
Slip covers of washable materials
for pan holders can be easily washed
often and slipped back on the pad.
This prevents the necessity for max
ing or buying new holders frequently.
The covers are more easily launder-
ed than a thick holder.-From the

Especial to Kennebec JournaD
Waterville, Oct. 25-This year the
Colby pigskin chasers will face their
Maine rivals in the pink of condition
and with a team that is to be far
superior in every way from the ag-
gregation which met the Maine Bear
defeat to the tune Of 14-0. Every
man on the squad Is in tip-top con-
dittion for the game. all having come
through the toughest weeks scrim-
images Of the season without serious
injuries. AS the workout tomorrow
will be Of the lightest variety. there
Is little chance that the Blue and
Gray will be in the crippled condi-
ton that she was last fall for the
biggest game of the schedule.
The workout this afternoon was
heavy in spite of the wet and slip
perry condition of the field and 1t was
a wonder that some Of the men
were not injured in the dumps that
were taken by practically everyone.
Coach Green had his second team
drilled in some Of the Maine plays,
especially several Of the famous
Bruce shifts that have puzzled not
a few teams in the past three years.
The seconds gained considerable
ground against the regulars with
the quick shifting Of the line but
considerable experience was gained
by team A. After a brief scrim-
mage, team A spent the rest of the
afternoon in running off signals.
Teams r and C scrimmaged near
the goal lines while several promis-
ing men with educated toes tried
their luck at booting the oval over
the bar with varying success. Con-
siderable time was also taken in
kicking scrimmage on punts with
Weymouth and Millett doing some
fine work. Since his ragged work in
the Bowdoin game, Weymouth has
been booting the ball souarely every
try and will undoubtedly be used
Saturday against Maine.
