possible this fall or prior to the
Transformation and emergence of
the beetle in the spring.
Decision of the department to
omit the suspected Delaware local
tiles from the quarantine bounds is
in line with statements and argu-
ments made by Delaware represent
atives at a hearing at Washington,
October The effect will be to leave
free of annoyance and regulation of
much territory that otherwise would
be subject to rigid quarantine rules.
While the Japanese beetle quar-
antine is not extended in Delaware,
the department announcement says
that parts of 10 counties in Penn
sylvania have been added to the
quarantined area, together with two
entire counties in New York, and
part of one county in Connecticut.
All of New Jersey has been under
quarantine for some time.
Maryland is still free of quaran-
tine due to the decision of the de-
partment to treat reported points
under suspicion in that state as such
points are to be treated in Della
ware.
The present quarantined area in
Delaware includes the city of Will
mington and the hundreds of Bran
dywine, New Castle, Christiana and
Red Lion, in New Castle county.
The new regulations became eff

The feeding of heavy cattle is
more hazardous than the feeding of
calves and, yearlings. This is due
to the fact that cuts of beef from
heavy cattle are more limited in de-
mand than beef from handy-weight
steers, with the result that the
price of heavy cattle is much more
sensitive to changes in the market
supply.

was on the corner of Fifteenth and
II streets, the site now covered by
the Southern Building, and it was be.
cause of the long period occupied III
building the present beautiful HyZa n
tine basilica, and the disorderly con-
dition of the main entrance, that
many of the diplomats transferred
their allegiance to ST. Paul's and in
the case of many Latin Americans to
ST Patrick's. But the old parish is
gradually regaining its lost prestige
and for the moment it is the place of
worship of six ambassadors and almost
three times that number of ministers
and many of the lesser diplomats. The
new Spanish Ambassador has formally
affiliated his staff with St. Matthew's.
whereas Senior Riano had a chaplain
from the Spanish Carmelite Convent
near lexington once month and
other times he went to st. Pauls.
The British Ambassador and Lady

Louis Bromfield. Early Autumn
Hardy Rye" is another OF these.
The New England farmer, knowing
his soil, has a way of sowing rye
which, having reached a certain
growth, is plowed under to enrich the
land. A matter of clear sacrifice from
the standpoint of the rye, certainly,
made for the sake of future abundant
harvests. Such, broadly is Daniel
Chase's new story. Here in excellent
drama is set the personal sacrifice of
one member of big New England
FAMILY in order that the deep roots of
the FAMILY trees in the East might
not be wholly torn away and de-
stroyed. The others had all of them
been captured by the lure of the West
which promised opportunity, adven-
ture, getting ahead. 1t was left for
this young man of the fourth genera
ton to be plowed under, to take the
place of the hardy rye for keeping
rich and sweet the soil of the old
blood, of the dear and ingrained asso-
Citations. A plain story, yet tragic
one. 1t could be nothing else, since
within this one youth with visions
and desires such as all youth pos
sesses there met the struggle of the
East ana NeSt-a struggle ODJectlHeu
today by a thousand vital competf-
tons and jealousies. 1t is under the
surface that the grimness of this ro-
nance lies. Along its outer ways 1t
is a quiet and restrained record of
family life ON New England farm,
from which for years there had been
persistent breaking away from the
rigorS of the Puritan tradition. The
story is like glass of clear vintage
drawn off from it's basic substance
with good insight and fine sympathy
and an intimate understanding, cou-
pied with the power to select and ar
range and emphasize and consummate
as drama. A story of indisputable
competence and a good share of dis
tinction.

SO useful and well organized was the
work that 1t has been continued I'M
der the caption of Red. White and
Blue Club. Practically everybody at
tended the ball and the receipts were
far abov the most roseate hopes. A
vast recreation ground Is conducted in
Summer, and in Winter as large
quarters are obtained as Chicago can
offer, and young, old and middle-aged
alike are welcomed, entertained. given
relief and medical aid when needed,
and above all are taught the lessons
which the American boy and girl
learn in early childhood One Of the
first lessons is to learn to sing the
national anthem. and Mrs. Coleman's
wards furnish one of the rare in
stances when the words and the music
of 1.-The Star Spangled Banner are
perfectly rendered and with feeling
which is not often expressed by Aneri-
cans.

Bullnose or Snuffles
a Serious Pip Disease

"Bullnose" or "snuffles" Is a very
common and serious disease affecting
pigs, a filth disease picked up around
mud holes, manure piles and dark,
damp pig houses.
ANY dirty place may harbor the
germs that cause this trouble" de-
clare live stock specialists. Little
pigs often infect one another by fight
Ing. Biting each other with their tiny
sharp teeth around the nose and face
leaves wounds that are easily infected
as the pigs root and wallow In the
dirt. This infection may occur incide
Of the mouth In the gums or palate.
Shortly after the infection occurs, the
wound may take on an ulcer-like ap-
pearance covered with a thick scab,
OF the face may become greatly swell
len with n or more openings dis
charging an offensive pus.
"This swelling causes construction
OF the air passages and causes the pig
to shuttle as 1t breathes, hence the
name. When the pig has reached this
stage, 1t Is hopeless and 1t will be
much better to slaughter the pig and
burn 1t up than to let 1t run around
with the herd and infect Others"
