; I have noticed large black and
yellow spiders about tho place. Can
| you tell nne-h these arc pQiaonousf
The large; Brightly colored- sspider
which lyoH, describe y the orange
garden spider, one Of the largest Of
our native species, It is about an
inch long with especially long front
legs and q. broad irregular black
band down the middle Of its back.
On, either side Of this is series Of
oblique yellow bands. This spider
belongs to the group known as orb
weavers. It's wheel-like web is SO
strong that it commonly catches
full grown grasshoppers as its prey
The spider Is entirely harmless to
man. The only poisonous species In
this country Is the black widow
spider which has shiny black
body not bigger than a good sized
pea. The black widow, rarely found
in Minnesota, Is typically marked
on the lower side by an orange or
red hour-glass shaped markingss~
w. A. Riley, chief. division OF en-
tomology and economic zoology
Can perennials be divided In
September?
Yes; perennials which bloomed
early in the season may be divid-
ed this month. This, II done pro-
perly, will result in the elimina-
ton Of parts Of roots injured by
insect pests or disease. Another
important factor Is that often
times relatively small roots or div
isions win over-winter much more
dependably than large overgrown
clumps.-wf H. Alderman, chief,
division Of horticulture.
Is there anything ono can put
out into . soft water cistefn to
prevent tho water having an odor?
Usually cisterns should be clean
ed once a year and thoroughly
washed down so that slime does
not collect on the walls. II the
odor is present. 1t can be removed
or at least greatly helped by put
ting about 50 pounds Of charcoal
broken up into small Jumps In q
flour sack. Tie the top Of the sack
and hang It in the cistern, moving
II about occasionally during a day
or two. after which 1t can be re-
moved. The charcoal will absorb q
good many Of the tastes and odors
Of the cistern water.-R. A. Gort-
ner. chief. division Of agricultural

Applications

After discussing some eight or ten
applicants during the morning, the
Vance Board of County Commission
erS had not elected a tax collector
early this afternoon. The board went
to lunch without coming to any agree
-ment on a man for the new job that
is to be set up the first of October.
It; was understood the icoard would
also give consideration to quarters for

of Education to vacate the office in

school department since there has
been a Vance county, but indications
are the board will resist the order and
fight to retain its quarters.

FINAL REvISIONS

BY early September of the sig
nificant year 1887, members OF the
Federal Convention meeting in In
dependence Hall had agreed on al
most every principle that makes our
United States Constitution so sturdy
foundation for government OF the
people. by the people and for the
people.
Now the product of their delibera-
lions went to a special committee
appointed to "revise the style Of, and
arrange the articles which have been
agreed to by the House"
To this Committee of Revision
historians have paid high tribute. To
it they attribute much of the direct
ness, simplicity and economy OF Ian
guage for which our american Con-
StitutiOn is notable.
It was to a group of distinguished
statesmen and scholars that the
lConvention assigned this important
task.
Gouverneur Morris, of PennSylva-
mia, generally accredited with writ
ing the finished report, was a bril-
liant lawyer and legislator, who later
served in the United STATES SENATE
and as Minister to France.
Other members were DR.. William
Samuel johnson, of Connecticut. a
graduate of oxford and President OF
Columbia College; Alexander Hamil-
ton. of New York, soldier, lawyer.
legislator and first Secretary of the
Treasury; James Madison, OF Vir-
pinia. who became our fourth Pres
ident: and Rufus King, OF Massa-
chusetts, noted orator. who was later
to serve in the United States Senate
and as Minister to Great Britain.
The activities of the week were.
however, by no means limited to the
work of the special committee. On
the Convention floor the delegates
continued to smooth out many more
or less important details.
They agreed. for example.
That patents and copyrights should
be granted ito promote the progress
of science and the useful arts
That the President should be
chosen by special Electors.
That "the House must originate
but the Senate may amend, money
