"First I'll eat the corn and then
I'll nibble your ears!''
Uncle Wiggily twinkled his pink
nose and into the pepper he put an
extra lot of the little hard kernels.
"When they pop they'll burst
the cover off the pepper and they III
fly out and maybe burn the Fox
on the nose!" whispered Uncle
Wiggily to Nurse Jane.
Soon the corn began TO pop. And
there was So much of it and it
filled the pepper so full that the
cover burst off and a stream of
hot white popped kernels of corn
shot toward the Fox. The hot corn
struck the Fox on his soft and
tender nose.
"Ouchie! Wowchiel Fowl" how

gily to Nurse Jane one evening, as
the bunny rabbit gentleman hop
ped up the steps of his hollow
stump bungalow. cit is getting
quite cold. -
"Yes, Jack Frost may be here, .
agreed the muskrat lady housekeep-
er. q wish you d help me bring
in my pots Of flowers. 1 don t
want Jack to pinch them with his
cold fingers
"I1l help" offered Uncle Wig
gily. So he carried in the geran-
iums and other posies and then,
after supper, he said: II think
Ill build a fire on the hearth.
Nurse Jane. 1t will be warm and
coy if any of our friends come to
call.'
"All right Nurse Jane said.
"There is no danger of Jack
Frost coming in where there S a
fire, she added, with a laugh.
@ Jack likes TO be cold"
So Uncle WiggiIy piled some wood
on the andirons and lighted the
faggots. Soon a warm, cracking
blaze was lcaping and jumping up
the chimney, as if eager to get
! outside and see how cold it was.
"'The cracking of the fire re-
minds me of popping corn" said
/ Nurse Jane, after a bit, rs she sat
near the hearth toasting her toes.
"Ha. Speaking of popping corn,
! that what l III going to dol -
cried Uncle Wiggily, twinkling his
pink nose.
Hanging near the chimney were
some ears of popping corn, and on
the same nail was the wire pepper
with its long handle.
ON get the salt and melted
butter ready" offered Nurse Jane,
as Uncle Wiggily began to shell
the kernels Of corn from the cob,
dropping the kernels into the wire
pepper.
BY this time tho fire had died
down into a mass of red, hot en-
bers, just right for popping corn,
and soon Uncle Wiggily was slow
" shaking the porper TO and fro,
the kernels Of corn skating around
inside beneath the cover. For you
must shake the pepper, YOU know,
when popping corn, else it will burn.
The fire glowed redder and hot
ter. Little cracks and crackles
were heard in the shaking pepper.
And pretty soon there were loud
pop like little toy soldiers shoot
ing off little toy guns.
"It's popping fine," cried Nurse
Jane, and soon the pepper was fill
ed with thc large white kenels,
which wcTc much larger than the
little dried kernels Uncle Wiggily
had slclled off the cObs.
When corn pops it bursts and
swclls ont into white, funny shapes.
And Just as Uncle Wiggily emp
tied the first full pepper into the
dishpan. and willie Nurse Jane
was pouring the melted butter over
it, the door Of the hollow stump
bungalow opened and in walked

Uncle WiggiIy. You are just in

"I'm glad Of IT," bleated the
goat gentleman. But have you

Launch Drive Against
the San Jose Scale
Many Counties in State Unite In War
Against Pest of Fruit Trees
In State.

Madison, visa campaign for con-
troll of the San Jose scale and other
insect pests on trees is being under
taken IN seyerol places in the state,
according to reports reaching S. B.
Breaker, state etimologist. The state
department intends to assist in car
rying on the various measures for
control of the pest.
Campaigns are being planned in
Madison, Union Grove and Rochester,
it is stated and a successful move
ment has been conducted at White
water. Wisconsin has not been ex-
tensively infested by the pest, &C
cording to state officials.
In the southern third of the state,
the scale develops with sufficient rap
idity to kill trees within three or four
years after they are attacked, it is
said by Mr.. Fracker. North of Mil
waukee and Madison, infestations have
always been found in time to de-
stroy all the trees involved before
extensive spreading has taken place.
Several cases have shown that the in
sect will Iiye and spread slowly in
localities asSfar north as Sheboygan,
Marinette and Sturgeon Bay.
Two means of controlling the pest
are advised by officials: destruction
of every tree and shrub infested, and
spraying in the fall or early spring
with commercial lime-sulphur solution
or a miscible oil.

NO COAL SHORTAGE
IN WISCONSIN NOW
State Department Finds Plenty of
Coal to Meet Demands of
All Sections.

Madison, Wis.--There will be no
acute coal shortage this winter.
This assurance was given today by
Paul H. Pressentin, coal expert of the
state department of markets. 1t is a
fact that there is no sufficient coal in
Wisconsin, however, Pressentin said.
Only a half dozen calls have come
TO Pressentin throughout the fall APP
pealing for coal from localities unable
to obtain it. These local situations
were relieved almost at once Pres
sehtin said.
Colder weather might bring slight
pinch and a temporary shortage in
isolated localities, he said, but it will
not be serious nor result in hardships
on anyone in the state, the fuel ex-
pert stated. Through careful sur
vey of the situation and in spection
of methods of coal handling concen-
tration of coal in certain spots has
been avoided
