grounds for a divorce, she alleges,
telling her that at the end of three
years he would come back with lot
of money and marry her all over
again.
Mrs. Marsh says she agreed, and
even went so far as to obtain the
evidence and file the suit, when it
dawned on her that Marsh, if he got
the holiday" meant to make it per-
manent. So she dropped the divorce
action. filed one for separation and
had the husband Jailed. He was un-
able to furnish the required bond of
$1,000 to insure his presence at the

Swat The Caterpillar

In addition to all the many special
days and weeks of the year devoted to
the observance of special objects, it is
now advocated having a "Swat the
Caterpillar Week." in order to get rid
of the pests. Never before. it is de-
clared by farmers and others, have the
tents erected by these industrious
pests been so numerous. 1t is said
caterpillars have a particular fondness
for wild cherries, and from present
indications the crop of ~caterpillars
grown on wild cherry trees standing
along the roads and fences in the
country viii outnumber those killed
in orchards 10 to l. An army of
schoolboys armed with pointed fishing
poles, a good supply of corneobs and
five gallons of kerosene could destroy
thousands of tents in a single day.
Therefore, why not a Caterpillar day?
If allowed to go unchecked they will
all find places to web up and hatch
out into moths that fly by night, de-
posting their eggs in every tree.
The next set of young worms that
Matched late in the summer of this
same year may be so numerous as to
destroy every green and living plant.
Trees should be sprayed with a So
luton of paris green and the webs
burned with torches made from
cotton cloths wrapped about long poles
and saturated with coal oil.
