Bureau doesn't feel that Mr. Golfer or

Even with the short deluge of Saturday
evening the record would still be con-
Siderably below par.
1t must BE- remembered, the bureau
points out, that while the rainy days
have been more numerous. they have
been punctuated mostly by showers of
varying degree. These showers account
for the fact that the amount of SUM-
shine thus far is 10 per cent below the
normal average of 60 per cent.
At least the days have been cooler for
Westinghouse. The average tempera-

Chiggers, those notorious woodland
pests, like human beings. are most
playful in childhood. 1t is the fam
ing youth OF the chigger world that
bites and bites and returns to bite
again. When age creeps upon a
chigger he reforms. mends his ways and
ceases to be an annoyance to man and
beast
This insight into ways of the wild
and savage chiggar child is the result
of study made by the Department OF
Agriculture, the results of which. were
announced today by F. c. Bishopp of
that many-sided governmental agency.
The chigger in its mellow maturity
is large red mite. Contrary to the
popular impression, Bishopp said, CHG
ger children do not burrow into the
skin, requiring extraction for relief.
The little chigger packs lot of poison
in his minute carcass and it Is the
poison which causes the discomfort and
itching that follows chigger bites.
Humans may take comfort from the
fact that they are not the only VIC
