TIM FL Y FARM TOPICS bH fhe County Agricultural Aoent

In several parts of the county lice or aphids have been found to be very numerous on potatoes, tomatoes, cu- cumbers, cauliflowers, cabbages, and urnips. The aphids are very iniur- ious to these plants and dry weather helps to increase their number Every farmer should look over the various crops mentioned above and see whether there are any lice CT aphids present. They are a very small green insect. the adults having small wings. They will most generally be found on the inside of the leaf and where they are present in large num- bers an immediate treatment should be applied and should be repeated within five days. The remedy is as follows
 Remedy
 Either dust CT spray will give results.
 |. Dust Buy a strong nicotine dust. 3es or more. On a calm, dry, sunlight day force dust in among oliage at the rate of twenty or hirfy lbs. per acre or more. Repeat in three to five days.
 2. Spray. Pour ia pint of fortyeo nicotine sulphate solution, commonly called Black Leaf forty, in fifty gall Ions cf water. Dissolve and add two lbs. laundry soap or one 10. Calcium Caseinate for a spreader.
 This can be used in Bordeaux Mix ture at the same rate, izpint Black Leaf forty to fifty gallons Bordeaux. Spray the underside of leaves. Re peat soon. Do not think action is im- mediate. Lice are generally killed within one to three hours.
 Note: a good. hard rain is often more effective than either dusting or spraying.

ACCIDENT REPORTS
Motor Vehicle Department Prepares Forms to Comply
 With Changed Laws.

A new style of accident report blank has been put into use by the State Motor Vehicle Department to conform to changes in the laws and regulations affecting the report ing of accidents. Many questions have been added Co the new form, while relativey unimportant queries and those most likely to be answered by false information have been chm mated.
 Reports are new required on pro perty damage accidents only when the amount of damage is more than S25.00. This includes the total dam age to all cars and objects involved. However. all accidents which cause injury to any person or fatalities must be reported. Written reports must be submitted to the department within twenty-four hours oi the time of the accident and must be made under oath.
 Specific information is required concerning the place of each acci- dent. The particular point on the street or highway must be described bv giving the distance to the nearest intersecting road or the nearest house or building. Department ofii- cials find that the mere naming of the street is of little value unless the spot at which the accident occurred Is also designated. It is pointed out | that information of this nature must l be complete to be of assistance Co engineers who are seeking Co elimin- ate dangerous conditions at bad spots along the highways.
 Answers Valueless
 It will no longer be necessary to name the kind of lens with which the ' headlights are equipped, The large amount of transformation supplied on former reports in answer to this question made the answers value ! less. About the same situation was | true in regard to questions dealing with the condition of brakes on cars in accidents, and these have also been eliminated
 Particulars of local. conditions and circumstances surrounding each acci- dent are now asked in series of questions which have been grouped for the convenience of the person re- porting the accident. These are in greater detail than heretofore and if the reports are made clearly and honestly, department officials expect that complete information regarding every essential feature of the acci- Cent will be available.

 and Widows to Graves
Eligible. Asked to Write SenAtor's
 Office

Senator Hiram Bingham of Conn ecticut is making arrangements for the pilgrimage of the nlothers and widows of Connecticut World War veterans who are buried m foreign cemeteries to the graves of their husbands and sons. A list of Conn ecticut widows and mothers eligible 70 make the pilgrimage is being com piled hv the Connecticut senator,
 As far as can be learned there are no Gold Star" mcthers in Putnam. An ex-service man. past official of the American Legion post m this city. stated. Monday. that so far as he knew there are no mothers of soldiers who died in service living in this city. There were several young men from Putnam who died in the service but either their mothers have since died or removed from Putnam, according to this ex-service man.
 Under an act passed during the Seventieth Congress, mothers and widows of members of the military and naval forces of the United States who died in service at any time be- tween April 5, 1917, and July l., 1921. and whose remains are now in- terred in foreign cemeteries, are en- tiled to make a pilgrimage to the graves of the veterans. All eS~snses in connection with the trip will be aaid by the Government. According 70 Senator Bingham. the pilgrimage may be made at such times between May l. 1880. and October 3i, 1883. as may be designated by the Secre- tary Of War.
 Eligible For Trip
 Persons eligible for the trip are widows who have not remarked since the death of their husbands who served in the military or naval ser vice and mothers of veterans. step mothers. mothers through adoption, or any woman who stood in loco narentis to the deceased for the year prior Co the commencement of his service.

EVOLUTION THEORY
IS NOW DOUBTED
Dr.. Austin 4. CLARK Has
New Ida

Washington, Jan. 81 R-Grave
doubt IL cast ON current theories of
evolution by DIR. Austin H. Clark,
biologist of the United States ma
tional museum. who has theory
Of his own to replace them.
As he explains 1t, Darwin was
wrong. and 10 was Lamarck. So are
their followers on almost all vital
points, he declares and In the ing
quarrel between the so-called funda-
mentalists and so-called modernists
on the origin of mankind in particu-
lar and animal life in general he
gives comfort to the fundamental
lists.
No Evidence
80 far as concerns the major
group Of animals" he said, 'the
creationists seem to have the better
of the argument. There is not the
slightest evidence that any of the
major groups arose from any other.
Each Is n special animal-complex-
related more or less closely to all
the rest, and appearing, therefore,
as a special and distinct creation"
DIR. Clark's theory collides square
ly with the generally accepted one
that animal life developed from low
err to higher forms over a long per-
iod of time. In brief, DIR. Clark
holds that all life is obeying con-
slant urge to produce certain forms
and that when these happen to be
born into a favorable environment
they survive as new types of animals
and plants. He contends that there
is no first or last In life forms and
that the amoeba and vertebrate
might have been produced at the
same time.
Time Wasted
II he is right the time spent in
studying fossils and long buried
bones and the painfully worked out
hypothesis of the change in certain
animal forms has been work wasted.

DECLARES MORALS
SHAPE BUSINESS
Owen Young Thinks Dishonesty
Rare Enough for News

New York. Jan. Fl N-Owen D.
! Young. chairman of the board OF
the General Electric company be-
lieves morals shape big business
and dishonesty Is scarce enough to
be news.
The recently appointed unofficial
American member of the committee
Of experts named to consider Ger
man reparations, spoke from the
pulpit of the Park Avenue Baptist
church last night on What is Right
With Business
"Our big business is no Longer
feared by the people," he said,
drawing parallel between the de-
velopment Of big business and the
motor car. "Exploiters no longer
own the big concerns. Bankers no
longer own them. Their shares are
spread from one end of the country
to the other. Broadly speaking the
vast organizations are in skilled
hands and the roads are reasonably
SAFE"
The American public, he said, o5
years ago was more or less in the
position of an old friend of his,
whose horse became frightenei
when 1t saw its first automobile and
jumped a fence, wrecking the buggy
in which the old man was riding. The
driver of the car stopped his car
and asked the old gentleman if he
could do anything for him.
Done Enough
NO" the old fellow answered. II
think you've done enough for to-
day."
The American people had the
same fear of big business as the old
mans horse did of the auto when
it first appeared around the bend,
snorting and Gathering Is years ago,
he said, but now with the present
high geared machines, run by care
full, expert drivers" that fear had
largely disappeared.
The danger today, Mr.. Young he
lieves. comes not from bad men In
business or bad principles but from
the difficulty Of applying right
! W
Our greatest risk is in the mistaken
Judgment of good drivers where the
traffic is heavy and the signals are
complicated"
In this connection he said that the
American people had the right and
should insist that big business exc.
cuuves must be held responsible
not only for its (big business) ma
terial welfare but for its moral con.
duct"

Using the giraffe as an ILLUSTRATION
of evolution theories. Lamarckians
hold in substance that the girane
grew his neck because his ancestors
were forced to stretch to get food
and that through exercise the necks
grew longer. In some undetermined
way this lengthening of the neck be-
came hereditary and the process
was repeated until the giraffe was
fixed as type.
Longer Net'ks
Darwin's theory with some modt-
fications, was that of the CRATES
ancestors some had longer necks
than others, They had to feed on
trees, as did the hypothetical ances-
tors in the i.amarckian theory. and
the ones born with long necks ha ]
a much better chance for survival,
This tended to eliminate short necks
and preserve long ones.
DIR. Clark, I, on the other hand,
explains the giraffe by declaring
that tho original pair were freaks
born q some other animals, possible
antelopes, and that the food supply
was favorable to the preservation
of the pair which came into the
world for some mysterious reason
with long necks.
