How To Control the Mexican
Bean Beetle

County Agent John Carter sent the
following to The Republican this
morning:
Begin spraying or busting opera
tions as soon as the adult beetles ap-
pear on the beans in considerable
numbers and repeat the applications
at intervals of seven to ten days until
the pods have formed. DO NOT AP-
PLY ARSENICAL SPRAYS OR
DUSTS TO SNAP BEANS AFTER
THE PODS HAVE FORMED. Where
it is necessary to apply control meas
ures to snap beans after the pods have
formed Pyrethrum sprays (Red Ar
row, Evergreen, etc. are advised.
In general, liquid sprays have given
better control than dusts, due largely
to their better sticking qualities and
the ease with which the poison can
be placed on the@under surface Of the
leaves.
For spraying-Two tablespoons cal
ciQm sarsenate, rs tablespoons hy-
drafted lime, gallon water. Apply in
the late afternoon.
Eprtgdustipg+ Copper-arsnical-lime
tdusT 28-20-60 or 15-15-70 formula
(Monohydrated copper sulfate, calci-
UNI arsenate and hydrated lime). This
dust should be purchased ready mixed
and applied in the dry form to The
under surfaces of the leaves with a
hand buster. Insist on the proper
dust, and freshly mixed.
. It is important that beans be
sprayed or busted on the under sur
face of the leaves if any control is
expected.

Before me is a request from a
reader to outline an itinerary
for a visit to Holland. It is a
pity that so many people go to
Europe and spend their valu-
able time in countries that
haven't so very much to offer.
But Holland has so much to
show and to give, we are bound
to her by very ancient, but
strong ties. An additional rea-
son for paying this fine little
country a visit, should we
chance to be in Europe. And so
I am delighted to comply with
the request of my correspondent.
He will start his trip from
Hague. From that most beauti-
full town he will go to Scheven-
ingen, one of Europe's most de-
lightful seashore resorts. Then
on to Leyden, that ancient uni
versity town, from there on to
Harlem, famous for it's bulbs.
It is only about a half hours
journey by electric train from
quiet HARLEM to busy Amster-
dam, with it's canals, fine build
ings, wonderful art galleries and
museums and splendid shops,

JOURNEYS IN BRIEF
By Temple Manning

Or if the visit to Amsterdam is
to be delayed, one can go from
Haarlem to Sandvoort, a de-
lightful coast resort. Then,
after the Amsterdam visit, we
are off to Doom and Enkhulzen,
crossing the zuider Zee at Sta
voren. Here we take the train
for Leeuwarden.
Friesland, with its interesting
towns, should be given at least
three days. There is old Gron-
ingen, zwolle, zutphen and Arm
helm, not to speak of Breda and
Middleburg with its old build
ings, quaint people and amaz-
ing market. For the matter Of
that, though, every town has its
quaint market, the old cheese
market at Alkmaar, near Am
sterdam, being typical.
There is so much to see in
Holland, whether one is in
Friesland, iceland or the bigger
inland towns.
The Hague, Rotterdam and
Leyden are all connected by troll
ley, and the towns of southern
Holland are all pretty close to-
gether.

On the "Reserve List" as
Presidential Possibility

Among party leaders he
has long been known to be
presidential timber. This,
too, long before he entered
the Senate. 1t is known that
for a time in 1928 he figured
in the calculations of the
leaders for the second place
on the ticket, but for a
decade he has been on the
"reserve list" of the leaders
as a presidential possibility.
Had he lived north Of the
line his career might have
been different.
A fine economist, a close
student of European history
of the last 70 years, it may
be doubted if there is any
man in public life better
equipped by temperament,
training, and thinking for
the great post to which ne
has been assigned.

THE universal acclaim
i which greets the an
nouncement that Senator
Cordell Hull is to be Sec
retary of State is due to
his extraordinary qualities,
displayed through many
years of distinguished pub
lie service. He has no af-
filiations or associations that
can possibly connect him
with any special interest
concerned with our foreign
relations. He is both a
student and a statesman of
a high order, and, long be-
fore he was mentioned for
the Cabinet, we had de-
scribed him in these columns
as a "statesman's states
man." He has taken pub
lie life seriously and has
made it his business to study
public problems intensively,
approaching them not with
prejudice, passion or pre-
conceived notions, but with
the cool detachment of a
scientific mind. No man in
either branch of Congress
has devoted as much thought
to economic questions, on
the solution of so many Of
which depend the restora-
ton of international ex-
change. He has never been
known to speak in House
and Senate for the sake of
talking; he had something
to say; and he never has
had anything to say that
was not an illumination OF
the subject treated. He has
filled the arsenals to which
others, with a greater flare
for publicity, have gone for
munitions. The man in the
street has known little Of
all this; his colleagues in
Congress know it to be true.
The Washington times., 1933-02-25
The Qualities Of
Cordell Hull

Perhaps the quality that
most has impress ID his
friends has been his modesty.
Tall, lean, graceful, with the
expression of a thoughtful
student, with keen dark eyes
that always are kindly, he
has been an impressive if not
obtrusive figure en- the floor
and in the cloak rooms. 1t
has not been unusual to find
him in the latter, sitting
alone, smoking a cigar, and
meditative in the midst OF a
crowd. None of which means
he is unsociable. No one who
knows him has ever hesltated
to break in on his medita-
tions. They know they may
count on a cordial greeting.
His voice is soft, with some
thing of the music Of the
South. And yet we cannot
conceive even of a friend in
boisterous mood slapping
him upon the shoulder. He
is not the kind with whom
one takes familiarities. But
his is a kindly dignity with
out pose or flamboyancy. l
know of no one in public life
of whom it can be better said
that he is given to simple iv-
ing and high thinking.

was a time in the early days
of the Republic when it was
accepted as the special
training ground for the
presidency, Jefferson - and
then Madison, who served
under him, succeeding to
the highest office; and then
Monroe, who served under
Madison, succeeding; and
then John Quincy Adams,
who served under Monroe,
moving up. But for the
ground swell for the popu-
lar hero, jackson, in 1924,
it is almost certain that
Henry Clay, who served I'M
der John Quincy Adams,
would have been elected in
1928. But that broke the
chain.
Even so, not a few who
held the portfolio of State
afterwards passed to the
presidency. Martin Van
Burcn served under Jackson.
James Buchanan under Polk.
But more impressive is the
list of remarkable statesmen
and party leaders, consumed
through life with an ambi'

never attained it, that hav0
