 The pulverized poison is carried in a tank on the vehicle, and a blower fan discharges it through a number of pipes at the rear, terminating in ex- banded nozzles.

When the bugs eat the poisoned leaves the in sects die and the potato crop is saved from its enemies.

BRAND IS PLEASED
BYLEAGUE'S ACTION
Foreign Minister Regards
Reference of Union Plan
Victory for Peace.

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, September 10.-Aristide
BRAND, French foreign minister, was
jubilant yesterday over the Council of
the League of Nations referring his
scheme for federation of European
states to the Assembly of the League,
which convenes Thursday.
The French foreign minister said that
he considered quick acceptance Of his
idea in principle by the League Council
to be real victory for the cause of
peace and economic content on this
side Of the Atlantic.
Those of his countrymen who are
here make no attempt to minimize
dangers that the plan still must run in
open discussion in which non European
states may have considerable to say, but
they feel that there are no objections
to the scheme which cannot be over
come in frank, open talk.
Decision of the League Council to
pass the idea on to the League As
sembly was hailed gladly on almost
every side, with the feeling general that
it gave a new lease of life to an idea
which already had met with dubious
powers and League adherentS.
In going before the Assembly the
BRAND scheme will be assured Of be-
coming a question for the whole world
to debate. Objections of League adj
herents, who felt that it might be purely
sectional and would tend to overshadow
its parent organization, the League,
were considered to have been partly
surmounted with this course.
Kenya and Tanganyika.
DR.. Julius Curtius, German foreign
minister, told the League of Nations
Council today that Germany would have
something to say regarding the British
plan for closer administrative, customs
and fiscal union between the African
territories of Kenya and Tanganyika.
Tanganyika was one of the German
colonies lost by the war and is now ad-
ministered by Great Britain under a
League Of Nations mandate. Kenya is
British colony.
There has been popular condemna-
ton in Germany of an alleged British
purpose to give TanganyilSa the virtual
status of a British possession Germans
who frankly hope to regain some of
their lost colonies oppose any move
which they regard as making their
project more difficult.

lowing observation of its reporter:
Cuba Blocks Revision.
1.-THE council can leave 1t to the
Mandates Commission to decide to what
extent it may be expedient and pos
sible to accede to the desire expressed
by the mandatory power"
Cuba yesterday won her campaign to
prevent the immediate coming into
force of the protocol for the revision Of
the World Court statute. The question
was referred to a committee for further
study.
Virtually all the other members of
the League had indicated willingness
for the revised statute to become eff
fective. Cuba objected to provision
requiring continuous session of the
court on the ground that there is not
enough business to keep the court oc-
cupied the year round. Another objec-
ton was that many notifications by
member nations were lacking.

ROMAN SKELETONS
ARE FOUND IN SPAIN
Archaeological Discoveries Arouse
Interest in Nations Place as
Center Of Research.
~ the Associated Press.

MADRID, September 10.--An archie
illogical discovery which has attracted
intense interest throughout Spain, was
being investigated today in the Madrid
suburb of Las CarolinaS.
Six tombs, containing several skele-
tons, apparently those of Roman citi-
1ens, and the remains of a Roman villa,
with still more ancient remains UNDER
meath, have been uncovered in a
gravel pit. The more ancient relics
sttll remain unclassified, but some OBJ
servers believe they represented a pre-
historic settlement.
Coming just after Ambassador Dawes
tour of Spanish points of archaeological
interest, the discovery has received
extraordinary publicity. Since ancient
remains, of one kind or another, are be-
ing dug up constantly, the newspaper Ell
Debate has proposed that Madrid de-
clare itself "the capital of the prehis-
tortc world" and organize q prehistoric
museum.
The paper proposed adequate appro-
priationS for thorough scientific exca-
vations around Madrid. Many believe
that rich archaeological material, both
Roman and prehistoric, exists in this
vicinity. They think it possible that
fossils dating back to the earliest stone
age may be found.

EMPLOYMENT
And WAGES

Factory employment and wage
payments in Pennsylvania showed Il
decline of is per cent between Sep
tember and October, according to
indexes of the Philadelphia Federal
Reserve Bank prepared from re-
ports of about $40 manufacturing
! concerns, employing about 300 thou
sand workers with a weekly payroll
of almost $7,3OO,OOO.
This decline is rather unusual
! since October ordinarily is the peak
month in manufacturing activity.
Since early spring the decline in
| factory workers and pay-rolls has
| been almost continuous, so that in
October employment was per cent
smaller and wage payments 10 per
cent less than in March. The mark
ed difference between these two
changes is due chiefly to fewer
hours Of work as shown by the
trend in man-hOurs.
Comparison with past years dis
closes that factory employment was
even smaller than in 1924 when in
dustrial conditions were unsatislac-
tory Wage disbursements continu-
ed to run substantially below other
years, and in October were only
slightly above the low point of July,
1924 The employment index at 87.4
was nearly Is per cent below the
1923-25 average, and the the wage
payments index at 81.3 was almost
10 per cent less.
The textile group was the only
one that showed more than seasonal
gains in employment and wage pay
ments in October, although cOmpar-
isOn with a year earlier remained
quite unsatisfactory. The rise in
pay-rolls of this industry was cue
chiefly to a greater rate If activity
in silk, hosiery, and carpet ana rug
industries.
The most noticeable declines in
employment and payrOlls occurred
in plants manufacturing metal pro
ducts, transportation equipment,
and leather and rubber products.
The Delaware factories reported a
drop of nearly per cent in the
number of workers and almost Eer
cent in the volume of wage pay
ments between September and Uc-
tober. The largest percentage &c
clines occurred in metal products,
foods and tobacco, and lumber pro-
ducts. Textile products, transpOr-
tatiOn equipment, and paper and
on the other hand, showed
gains in payments. The number of
hours worked was about per cent
in October than Septam0er.
contrary to the usual upward trend
for that month.

STATE GRANGE TO
MEET IN FELTON,

The seth annual meeting of the
Delaware State Grange will be held
in Trophy Grange Hall, FELTON,, on
December 9 and 10, with the mem
bers of Trophy Grange acting as
host. J. Frank Rice, lecturer of TrO-
ply Grange and a member of the
State Grange Executive Committee
is in charge of the local arrange
ments for the entertainment of the
visiting Changers.
The ladies of Trophy Grange will
serve lunch and dinner each day of
the session, in the dining room of
the Grange Hall.
The session will be opened at
1O:3O a. m. on Tuesday by the Hon.
Robert P. Robinson, Master of the
Delaware State Grange.
Owing to the amount of business
to come before the Grange the US
ual open session for the public will
be dispensed with this year and
morning, afternoon and evening
business sessions will be held each
day. State Lecturer A. Bailey
Thomas promises to provide little
entertainment from time to time
during these business sessions.
Legislative problems affecting ag-
riculture will probably receive the
most consideration at these ses-
sions. The new proposed bylaws of
the State Grange and the election of
officers for the ensuing two years
will both be matters of prime i'm
pOrtance to all Patrons of Husban-

Dos And DOn'tS
And ChiLd'S Meal

A very real problem for many
mothers is teaching the baby to eat
indeed. in many homes this prob
lem becomes a domestic tragedy re-
peated three times a day. Every
growing child requires a well-bal-
anced diet of meat, milk, eggs, green
leafy vegetables and fruit, but how
to get him to accept all of these
foods is the despairing cry Of many
a mother.
These simple rules presented in
a bulletin from the Massachusetts
Department of Mental Diseases
should be learned by heart by every
mother of a growing family" says
Inez S. Wilson, home economist.
Teaching the Baby TO Eat
Things to do:
Let the child see that you eat
what is put before you. Have meals
at regular times. Make them pleas
ant parts of the daily program and
nothing more.
Make food attractive and serve
only little at a time.
Expect the child to eat it.
Give him thirty minutes for his
meal. If it is not eaten then take it
away.
Have him understand that eating
is his business.
Try new foods a little at a time
and try them more than once.
Things 10 Avoid:
Don't give him anything between
meals.
Don't talk of his likes and dis
likes before him.
Don't allow others to talk of their
likes and dislikes.
Don't talk about the child's poor
appetite.
Don't compare his appetite with
other children's.
Don't let him see that you worry
about his eating.
Don't feed the child when he is
Did enough to feed himself.
Don't coax or threaten or force
lim to eat.

we have at our bidding spinach,
string beans, lima beans, Brus-
sells sprouts, okra, green peppers,
turnip greens and scores of other
greens. Red is a vivid color con-
trast to green, and it is plenti-
fully afforded in tomatoes, beets,
kidney beans, pimiento and other
delicious vegetables.
In every color assortment there
will perhaps be some light color
vegetables, and here you may
select from celery, corn, aspara-
gus, wax beans, hominy, sauer-
kraut or cabbage. And with these
paler vegetables the pleasant glow
of carrots, sweet potatoes, yellow
turnips, or the warm brown of
baked beans or mushrooms will
be a welcome contrast.
Color, Texture and Shape
Canned vegetables are, of
course, always plentifully used in
the vegetarian dinner, and their
colors are quite as inviting as those
of the fresh vegetables since the
Gamer now packs vegetables in
the popular sanitary enamel-lined
can which serve to preserve per.
fectly their natural colOrs.
Texture is as important as color
in the choice of vegetables in
combination. For instance, the
perfect vegetable plate will in
clude some of the soft vegetables,
such as peas, asparag gus OF to-
matoes; some of the more chevy
ones, such as string beans,
spinach, carrots, corn and so
forth; and at least one Of the
crisp or leafy vegetables such as
celery, endive or lettuce.
Also, there are myriads Of ways
of cooking vegetables and fascinat-
lug shapes into which they may
be cut; so be sure that you do not
