JAP BEETLE TRAPS
100 To Be Placed in Hen
derson Under Present
Plans of Inspector
DAILY Dispatch Burenu.
In Shn Ctr Wnlter Hotel.

Raleigh, Feb. 24.-Plans are now
being made to place $3.50 traps for
Japanese beetles-enemies of 200
plants-in % cities and towns in
North Carolina this summer, G. H
Brannon, chief entomOlOgist of the
State Department of Agriculture, said
today.
At the same time, the entomologist
announced that Charlotte has been
placed under the beetle quarantine,
which means that no plant shipments
can be made from the city without a
special permit issued by the State De-
partment of Agriculture. Other cities
now under quarantine include: Win
ston-Salern, Greensboro, East Spencer
Salisbury, and Spencer.
Brannon said traps would be placed
as follows: 100 in Washington, Is in
Asheville, 200 in Concord, 200 in New
Bern, 200 in Fayetteville, 200 in
Thomasville, 200 in Lexington, 800 in
Durham, 400 in Rocky Mount, 300 in
Gastonia, Is in Oxford, 900 in High
Point, 200 in Elizabeth. City, 200 in
Greenville, 100 in Hamlet 100 in
Reidsville, 100 in Henderson, 800 in
Raleigh and 200 in Wilson. Traps will
remain in the cities for 30 days.
Cities now under quarantine will
not be trapped this year in view
that the department has already OBJ
tanned sufficient information in the
respective areas to warrant quaran
tine procedure Brannon added.
''The traps-green buckets contain
ing chemical solution to attract the
beetles-are not being scattered thro-
ughout the state as a control measure
but are being used to determine the
abundance and spread of the in
sects,'' he explained. when ten or
more beetles are found in one vicinity
it is highly probable that the section
will be placed under quarantine"

Capital Gossip
BY HENRY AVERILL

Raleigh, Feb. 24-Next weeks SUI
preme Court calendar will be one Of
the shortest in recent history of the
court, with only II appeals regularly
due for oral argument and a twelfth
cause specially set for hearing.
Of the dozen cases, ten are from
the eighteenth district, one from the
third and the specially set action from
the eleventh.
The fact that only one case comes
up from the third speaks volumes for
the ability of Judge J. Paul Frizzelle
who presided over courts of that dis
trict during the 1897 Fall term.
The specially set case is the appeal
of William Mosley, Forsyth Negro un-
der sentence of death for killing an
other Negro whom he accused of be-
ing intimate with his wife. This case
came up for argument during the Fall
term, but was sent back for a finding
of fact as to the sentence, when some
question Of the jury's verdict arose
during argument.
In the case of State VS.. John c.
Livingston, Jr., set for argument next
week, it will be decided whether a
superior court judge can accept plea
of guilty from a prisoner who is at
the time of trial an inmate of the in
sane asylum.
Defendants brief recites that Liv-
| ingston was brought from the Nor
canton hospital for the insane to
stand trial on a charge Of breaking
and entering; and that Judge Felix
Alley accepted plea of guilty from
him and passed sentence Of from
seven to ten years in prison.
His counsel contend that the judge
could not accept guilty plea from
an insane person, but was bound to
enter a not guilty plea and give de-

Beautiful hair is the product of

of eruptions, the brush treatment.
The brush treatment should be
