Sisters Meet After Fifty Years

Fifty years ago, when they were
girls. they parted in old England. June
s they met again and looked into each
others faces. Fifty years ago Mrs.
Grace Neville left England with an
older brother for America. Time
passed. Mrs. Neville married and
reared her family, most of the time
right in Helena. Her boys and girls
have grown to manhood and woman
hood. During all this time the sisters
have kept in touch with each other. A
few weeks ago the other sister, Mrs.
Lizzie Hoffenden of East Putney, ).
w London, wrote her sister and told
her she was going to visit her in Amer
lea. Mrs. Neville was but slip OF a
girl when she last saw this sister. The
message that the two were soon to
meet again set the Neville family busy
picturing how Aunt Lizzie would look
But Thursday, June 3. accompanied
by another sister, Mrs. Henry Weber
of Bedford, Ohio. the two long separ
ated sisters met, and the Neville home
is entertaining a reunion that is quite
unusual.

CUCUMBERS COOKED

Tender and Delicious Il

Cucumbers are excellent as a cooked
vegetable, suggests the United States

many people do not know or use them
in this form. To prepare them for
cooking. peel them, cut lengthwlse or
crosswise or both, and scoop out the
seeds. They are tender and delicious

The cucumbers may be mashed after
steaming or stewing in a very little

Roach Nuisance Can Be
Reduced by Cleanliness

Reaches will not frequent rooms I'M
less they find some valuable food ma
terial. SAYS the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. If such mate
rails can be kept from the living
rooms md offices, or scrupulous care
Is exercised to see that no such ma
terial is placed in drawers where 1t can
leave an attractive odor or fragments
of food, the roach nuisance can be
restricted Thorough-going cleanli-
ness will go a long way toward pre-
venting serious annoyance
The most efficient remedies for the
control of reaches are powders, par
ticularly sodium fiuorid, liberal dust
ing of which about the premises Will
furnish a sufficient means for the
elimination of the pest The sodium
fiuorid should be blown into the
crevices with dust gun or blower
The immediate effect is to cause these
insects to come out of their retreats
and rush about more or less blind,y,
showing unmistakable signs OF dis
comfort, to be followed in a few hours
BY their death.

POISONED Strip GOOD
FOR DESTROYING ANTS
Greatest Precautions Should
Be Used With Bait.

Prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
An efficient remedy for household
ants, according to the bureau of en-
tomology of the United States De
partment of Agriculture, Is strip
poisoned with arsenate of soda, If II
can be used safely. The greatest pre-
cautions should be taken In preparing
this strip and in safeguarding II
afterwards from human beings or do
nestle animals. Ants will carry the
mixture to their nests, SO that NOT
only they, but the stay-at-homes are
reached by the poison.
The formula for the preparation OF
the poisoned strip is as follows: One
pound of sugar dissolved in quart OF
water, to which should be added 10
grains of arsenate of soda. The mix
ture should be boiled and strained,
and on cooling used on sponges The
addition of small amount of honey
lis said to add to the attractiveness.
The first step in the control of ants
in the house is the removal OF all at
tractive substances wherever prac-
tical. Ants like sweet, starchy food
materials, especially cake, bread,
sugar, preserves, sirups, and even
meat. BY cleaning up promptly all
food crumbs scattered by children,
keeping all shelves and corners clean,
and storing food supplies in ant-proof
IL, =, +oin IN,
Iclosed iceboxes, the ant nuisance may
be largely limited. Daily supplies only
of foods likely to attract ants should
be purchased.
Entomologists of the department
have found that most of the repellents
considered effective, such as camphor
and naphthalene flakes or powdered
moth balls, are of little benefit Ii the
| lnest of the ants can be located by fol-
| lowing the workers back to their
point of disappearance, number OF
the ants in the nest may sometimes be
| Preached by injecting little disulph1d
! of carbon, kerosene or gasoline into
| the opening by means of an oil can
or small syringe. These substances
are inflammable and should never be
used near fire. If food and other con-
ditions continue to attract ants and
favor their continued breeding In the
house, such control measures are OF
only temporary avail
The collection of ants by the use OF
attractive bats is frequently recon-
mended, but unless the bait Is pol
soned as previously described, it Is OF
doubtful benefit. Small sponges
moistened with sweetened water will
attract many ants. The sponges car
be collected several times day, and
the ants swarming on them destroyed
by immersion in hot water. The use
of sponges moistened with borax and
sugar dissolved In boiling water tc
poison the ants is also sometimes rec
commended, but has not been found
effective. The distribution of swee
bats which do not actually kill ths
ants often results in increasing thei
numbers.

IMPORTED FRUIT STOCK
BRINGS SERIOUS INSECT
PEST TO BITTER ROOT

Importation Of fruit stock into the
Bitter Root valley from outside points
has brought one of the most serious
insect pests to trouble the fruit-grow-
ers of that section, says w. S. Regain,
assistant entomologist at Montana
State College, whose bulletin on con-
troll of the fruit-tree 1eaf-roller will
soon be ready for distribution. The
insect is known to be quite generally
distributed throughout the United
States and has been recorded as caus-
ing serious injury at one time or an
other in Massachusetts, New York, Cal
ifornia, Oregon and Washington.
In view of the fact that the noun
tains and evergreen forests surround
ing the valley offer practically an In
surmountable barrier to introduction
by the natural means of flight, it
seems reasonable to conclude that the
insect was introduced upon importa-
tons of nursery stock. The insect
passes the fall, winter and early spring
as an inconspicuous egg mass upon the
bark, an din this stage it might easily
have been shipped into the valley with
out attracting attention. AS a matter
of coincidence or otherwise, 1t is in
teresting to note that the Summerdale
.infestation centerS in a part of the
orchard where imported young nursery
stock was planted several years ago.
At the present time the leaf roller
occurs in numbers sufficient to cause
noteworthy loss to the apple crop in
four rather widely separated localities
of the Bitter Root valley. The heavi
est and most extensive infestation oc
ours in the University Heights or
chards and orchards Immediately ad
joining on the north in the town OF
Darby. Here the infestation covers ar
area approximating ten square miles
A second important infestation, GOV
ering about three square miles, occurs
In the Summerdale section of the towr
of Corvallis. Other infestations, rela
lively light but nevertheless of i'm
portant potentially, occur in the
Kramer orchard and vicinity a
Stevensville and in the north q
tract" of the Thousand Acre ranch a
Victor.

When Used as Vegetable
CeIeriac Is Best Liked

Celeriac is known also as "knot cell
cry" or "turnip-rooted celery" the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture states. The roots, which are
about the size of white turnip, and
not the stalks are eaten. They are
more often used as vegetable than
as a salad. Prepare the celeriac by
pairing and then cutting 1t into thin,
narrow slices or dice. Put into cold
water. Drain from this water and
drop into boiling water and boil thirty
minutes. Drain and rinse with cold
water. Make a white sauce with one
tablespoonful of butter, one tablespoon
full of flour, one-half teaspoonful OF
salt, and one cupful Of milk. When
smooth and well cooked add the
celeriac.
