Drought Rout5: Wheat Pest

HE old saying of the silver lining to the
cloud is borne out in the case of the drought
and the Hessan fly, one of the most damaging
of the wheat insect pests. According to Dr.
p. N. Armand in charge of cereal Investigations
Tor the Department of Agriculture, the drought
was highly destructive to the fly.
Scattered fields In Southeastern Kansas,
Southern Missouri, East-Central Indiana, Mid
die Tennessee, Northern Ohio, South Central
Pennsylvania, and Central North Carolina, a
recent chronological survey shows, suffered
some Hessian fly injury this year and with
weather favorable to the development of the
fly DR.. Armand says. moderate to severe infes-
tations may develop in these areas There ap-
pears little prospect, however, of serious infes-
tations this Fall in the rest of the Winter wheat
belt, comprising Nebraska, Northern and Gen.
tral Kansas, Northern Missouri. all of Illinois,
Western and Southeastern Indiana, Southern
Ohio, Western, Northern and Eastern Pennsyl-
vania. Maryland, Delaware and Virginia.
Because of this reduced hazard and the
urgent need for Fall pastures created by the

drought that helped to check the n.y. growers
In some sections Of the country, acting ON the
recommendations of their State entomologists
are disregarding fy-free dates and seeding their
wheat early. The fy-free dates, Dr. Armand
emphasizes should be Hgidly observed IN the
areas shown by the survey to be threatened by
serious infeStationS. Once the Hessian fly has
taken possession Of grain field, he points out,
nothing can be done to stop its advance.
The most effective way to combat the Hes
sian fly now known is to sow wheat late enough
SO that it viii not break through the soil until
after the fly has lived its brief adult life Fly
free dates for planting. which vary slightly
from year to year with weather fluctuations,
range from Sepember IL, in the most northern
part of the Winter wheat belt, to October q,
in the extreme southern part.
Other important control measures are crop
rotation. prompt blowing under of all hy-in-
eested stubble, destruction Of all volunteer
wheat. preparation Of a good seed bed, con-
servation of moisture, use of good seed only,
and fertilization of the soil.

Miss Dix spent much time in Washington
watching the early progress of the hospital.
and for awhile occupied a room on the north
front Of the main building. The Civil War
coming on, she was appointed superintendent
Of woman nurses, United States Hospitals and
in 1865 resided at 430 Fifteenth west (old
numbering). During this period, the West
Lodge building OF the asylum was set aside for
wounded seamen of the Chesapeake and Po-
tomac fleets, and a few were also assigned to
wards in the main building. This temporary
use Of the hospital began in December, 1862.
and terminated May %, 1864.
N 1868. according to Mr.. Sanger, certain rooms
of the hospital were set aside for the manu.
facture of artificial legs, and that soldiers
who had lost limbs by amputation in one of
the District or neighboring hospitals might,
If they wished, be transferred to st. Elizabeth's
Hospital as soon as the stump healed. to be
fitted with an artificial leg.
1t was during this war that the institution
took on the name "St. Elizabeth,s" given 1t
by the wounded soldiers brought here. They
did not like the idea Of being nursed in an
insane asylum, and so insisted upon calling
1t "St. Elzabeths." the name by which the
tract was known at very early date, and a
very appropriate one it is, for this devout
woman did much good in her time: The
daughter of Andreas H. King of Hungary, she
was born at Pressburg in 1907, and married,
in 1921, Ludwig, andgrave of Thuringia She
erected hospitals. fed a multitude of poor
from her own table. and wandered about in
an humble dress relieving the wretched. No
vember 19, 1921, she died in hospital which
she had herself established
In 1855, DR.. Nichols was regularly appointed
superintendent of the asylum, and continued
to serve until 1877 when he was succeeded by
DR.. Godding, who had been second assistant
physician at St. Elizabeths from 1862 to 1870,
when he resigned to become superintendent of
the State Hospital for Insane at Taunton Mass

In 1882, President Fillmore, at the suggestion
OF Miss Dix. appointed DR.. Charles Henry
Nichols to superintend the construction and
management Of st. Elizabeth's Asylum. The
doctor was then about 80 years DID, having
been born in Vassalboro, Me, October 19, 1920.
Dr. Nichols had trouble to start OF with,
for the site decided upon by Miss Dix and
himself. and no doubt approved by others,
could not be bought for the $25 900 allotted
for this purpose. The property belonged to
Thomas Blagden and DR.. Nichols had been
unable to make him part with his 187-acre
farm for SIS, 900 less than he wanted. At last
he decided to ask Miss Dix to see what she
could accomplish with her persuasive powers.
There Is nothing more to be done!" he ex-
claimed to Miss Dix; I'VE shall have to give the
matter up; and it is the finest site for hospital
in the world!"
=" hIsS DIX" we are told, listened without
w excitement, and then replied in her
usual tone. We must try what can be doner
Seeking personal interview with Mr. Blagden
so earnestly and knowingly did she reason with
him to surrender for the future good of
thousands of his suffering fellow creatures
what was so precious, indeed. to him and his
family, but to household only. that the
appeal proved irresistible, and he gave her his
promise of the estate at the amount appropri-
ated by Congress"
That evening he forwarded to Miss Dix the
following letter:
washington, November 49, 1852.
Dear Madam-Since seeing you today I
have had no other opinion land Mrs B. also)
than that must not stand between you and the
beloved farm, regarding you. as I do as the
instrument in the hands of God to secure this
very spot for the unfortunates whose best
earthly friend you are, and believing sincerely
that the Almightys blessing will not rest on,
nor abide with, those who may place obstacles
in your way. .-.- 80.
With Mrs. Blagden's and my own most
friendly regards,
very respectfully,
"Your obedient servant
THOMAS BLAGDEN"
Since then the grounds have been increased,

far as Congress viii provide the funds, and
is developing the plant to the east side Of
Nichols avenue which he claims as his own
work. Several buildings already have been
erected in this section, but many more are
needed to relieve the crowded condition of the
institution. Tentative plans have been pre-
pared, which, when carried into execution, Vill
make useful and attractive addition.
In the writer's youthful days, when DR..
Nichols was superintendent of st. Elizabeth's.
and some one made a wise crack, or said
something ridiculous foolish. he was usually
reminded that DR.. Nichols would get him.
But since we have escaped this awful mis-
fortune for so many years, the chances are
good that shall never go there. If we
should, we shall at least have the satisfaction
of knowing that We are going to the best
institution of its kind in the world-at least
We Washingtonians think so.

stitution. when he was but years Of age, and
there is surely little he does not know about
the place. He pointed out special trees of note,
the early buildings and historic spots in the
grounds, the old chapel in the main building, the
theater, fire engine house, the fields named
for special persons, and many other places, and
wound up in the cafeteria, where he provided
the luncheon.
One could not write story of st. Eizabeth's
without referring to Dorothea Lynde Dix, one of
the outstanding benefactors of the world and,
although the Medical Society Of the District of
Columbia tells us that DR.. Benjamin Schenk-
myer Bohrer, who was born in this vicinity in
1888, was the originator of the project to
tabliSh this institution, yet undoubtedly Miss
Dix succeeded in making the hospital a reality
where all others failed. Nor was her work in
behalf of the insane confined alone to WASH
ington and to our own country, but it reached
out across and beyond the Atlantic. In The
Star of March 18, 1899 well deserved tribute
is paid this wonderful woman as follows:
Finally the establishment of the present
Government Hospital for the Insane was
brought about by Miss Dorothea Dix, who had
devoted her life to securing humane treatment
for the insane. She had endeavored to have
Congress set aside large of the public
domain to establish hospitals in the various
States for this purpose, but after she had
secured the passage of the necessary act it was
diplomatic act of August 81 1852, appropriated
100000 to enable the Secretary of the Interior
to purchase a site in the neghborhood of
Washington and for the erection furnishing
and fitting of asylum for the insane of the
Federal District of Columbia and of the Army
and Navy.
THE efforts of Miss Dix which resulted
in this appropriation form one of the heroic
chapters Of American history. Thirteen years
teacher in the Sunday school maintained by
Harvard Divinity School students at the East
Cambridge, Mass, House of Correction, found
q lew insane persons among the prisoners She
talked with them, and became interested in
their sad lot. They had no stove in their room
and were left to shiver in the cold of Winter
like so many wild animals.
Their keeper said it would not be safe to
give them fire. Miss Dix appealed to the
court and warmth provided. Then she
began her investigation into the condition of
the insane from the Berkshire Hills to the tip
of Cape Cod She proved that insane persons
in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, were
confined in cages closets cellars, stalls, pens;
chained, naked, beaten with rods and lashed into
obedience.
''Her exposures were met with a storm of
denunciation, but she was persistent in her
efforts for reform, and after success in her own
state her labors were extended to other parts
of the country, where the bad treatment of
the insane was about equal to that which had
prevailed in Massachusetts,. Miss Dix became
well-known figure about the Capital here, and
after three years of persistent work among
senators and Representatives, secured the al
lowance of 100000"
