They are Dr. A. L. Quaint ance. Entomologist in Charge, Fruit Insect Investigations of U. S. De partment of Agriculture, and Dr. Alvah Peterson. Assistant State En tomologist of New Jersey. The Peach Borer has been one of the oichardisfs most power ful enemies. Until (he develop ment of paracide, the one means of combatting it was by cutting it out of the tree with a knife or digging it out with a stiff wire. Both methods were expensive, tedious and uncertain. Oftentimes these crude methods caused as much damage as the borer itself and frequently resulted in shorten ing the life of the tree. The Peach Borer is a white worm which feeds on the outer layers of the tree trunk or large roots, .and may be detected by masses of gum containing sawdust like parti cles which exude from the trunk near the ground Later it becomes a moth which lays many eggs, but it *s as a worm that it is destruc tive Paracide should he applied in the fall. Early October is best in the South, late Septembf r for West Virginia and the Ozarks. and early September in the North. At these times the larvae which would mature the following spring can be killed. The ground around the tree is made clean and smooth, and one ounce of the material is strewn in a circle that is every where about two inches from the trunk. It is covered by a few shovelfulls of earth which are patted down by the back of the shovel and left for at least six weeks. The earth mound is then removed. Paracide volatilizes un der the ground and forms a gas five times heavier than air. The ga3, completely encircling the tree, smothers the pest but unless wrongly applied does no damage to the tree. Careful records show that the treatment costs about 2 cents per tree for labor an-d material, and that results are nearly 100 per cent effective. In one large orchard 22,- 000 trees were treated by 50 men in three days, and in some 300 trees examined later only one Borer was found. IN MEMORIAM. W. T. Parnsh. (By Flora Jones.) On July 24th, after a lingering ill ness for several weeks, the death an gel came and took away our devot ed friend. His body was laid to rest at Pleasant Hill Methodist church on July 25, 1923. Oh how swell well ere remember when separations—hands so fierce, Laid itself i per*' o.ir ioved o o And our hearts were sorely pierced Many days we’ve stood beside iim, Many nights o’er him we bent, As he lay before us suffering But the ills would not relent. It was sorrow, woeful sorrow, And the billows o’er us rolled, When came the awful separation, Os the body and the soul, As we saw him, all so quickly, Breathe his last and faintest breath, For we knew that it, twas death. Notwithstanding untold sadness, With our hearts so filled with grief, Over giving up our loved one We in Jesus found relief, S Found relief by looking upward, ] To the mansions fair and bright, I When we saw by faith our loved one, In the realms of pure delight. Call him back? No, never; no never, Would we rob him of such joy. Os a home where all is sunshine Free from sin and its alloy; Shall we grieve about his absence? I No, ’twill not be very long, ’Till we join with him and others, Who compose the happy throng. His place is vacant in home and Sun day school, Which can never be filled again, But we feel assured that loss on earth Is his eternal gain. No more his brilliant face we see, No more his voice ,we hear, And when we think of the friend that is gone, There comes to our eyes a tear, WTlt thou beckon us, loved one? Wilt thou at the portals wait? jFor by grace we are determined i lo go sweeping through the gate, j p hen in joy again we’ll greet thee, And will know as we are known, i w here agam we’ll gladly join thee, y the service around the throne. 'ADVOCATE RURAL ! ELECTRIC LINES ] Electrical Interests Name Com-! mittee to Study Question of Taking Electricity to Farmer. Adopting as Its purpose the motto “Popularize the farm by powerizing It,” the National Electric Light Asso- i ciation has appointed a special com- ! mittee to promote the extension of electric power lines in rural sections ; of the United States. The particular problems Involved in this expansion of the existing power distribution lines will be studied with care. The most serious of these prob lems is the question of making it prof itable to both power company and farmer for the distribution lines to be extended on the basis of cost involved. The cost cannot be reduced by the power company below a certain point, because a fixed amount of line mate rials has to be used whether the com pany serves ten customers or a hun dred. Yet it Is recognized by electrical In terests that if electric light and power ■ can be taken to the farm it will great- ! ly strengthen the arm of the farmer. More than that, it will prove a stimu- j lus to the development of all agricul ture. The Electrical World has declared that the farmer is in the same position with reference to the use of electricity as was the manufacturer twenty years | ago and that electricity Is a method of helping him solve his economic dilem ma, just as it aided the manufacturer. The Committee of the National Elec tric Light Association believes that electrical labor saving machines will save the day for the farmer’s wife, for the farmer himself and for the hired help, which is scarce at best and prone to be discontented if overworked be yond a certain point. AGE OF LIGHT IS HERE Artistio Electrical Illumination Declared Possible in Any Home, No Matter Where. Let It be located anywhere at all, in a rural town, a village In the country, or on a farm off by itself, the house that is wired and has at hand can be made an example of the \ finest and most artistic illumination by man that has ever been known j upon earth. Such is the twentieth century summit to which artificial lighting has attained through the Maz da tungsten lamp, which shines by electric current The truth of the above assertion is verified by Dr. M. Luckiesh, director of the laboratory of applied science in the National Lamp Works of the Gen " "-’ • • Artistic Lighting With Electricity eral Electric Company at Cleveland. Dr. Luckeish declares that, so far, people have not understood what de lightful homes they can have with electric lights. “From the standpoint of artificial light,” he says, “we have just emerged from the Dark Ages The stupendous progress In light production in the past few years has put us in the posi tion of having been suddenly project ed from the age of mere light late an age of adequate light. "Less than a century ago, light cost fifty times what it does today. For ages mankind struggled along with meager flickering light sources. Then, within a really short time, science gave to us efficient, convenient and powerful light sources. “But these came so suddenly that} yre have iad slight opportunity to! * waken to lighting possibilities. This Mark age’ attitude, which we have not generally shaken off, is somewhat re sponsible for the general lack of ap preciation of the possibilities of arti ficial light. Says Light “Decorates” Homes “The usefulness of light is more easily appreciated than its decora tive characteristics. We do not re alize that we can decorate as effec tively with light as we can with dra-1 peries, furnishings or paintings. A j decorative scheme of draperies, fur- j nishings or paintings is more or less fixed, but light is a mobile, changeable medium. It can be easily changed, and is capable of creating a much de sired variety. “The possibilities of modern light ing are incomparably greater than those of a gentury ago, but they have j been barely drawn upon. If we are ! to appreciate these possibilities of artificial light and extract comfort! and joy from them, we must first cor rect our mental attitude. We must think of artificial light as seriously M we do decorations and furnishings. STRANGE AND CURIOUS, j Peculiarities That Will Astonish Almost Anyone.

It is a shame to any man who has courted and persuaded some girl in -the freshness of her youthful beauty to leave Her home and go with him and then after years of toil and wor ry, child-bearing and hearatches, when the shoulders begin to stoop and the wrinkles begin to appear in her face, and her hair shows streaks of gray, it is a shame that can never be put into words strong enough to express it, for the husband to show any wan ing of his love for her or his loyalty to her because of her fading beauty or diminishing intellect. It is the most pathetic tragedy that the world furnishes, to see a man treat his wife rudely, or pass her by in cold neglect, i w hen once he has made all sorts of ! pi ofessions of constant love an l nev er ending affection. How can such a man look such a woman in the sace n j If he really ioved her when she w r as young he would continue to love i her w r hen she is old. If his love was anvthing but animal passion v/lie.i she W’as fresh and dimpled and rosy, it would abide the changes that have con.e to her through the toil and stiess of trying to make her honie z happy place. A man ought to be horsewdiippe 1 ‘who w r ould go back on that woman who has been true to him, and given hirr the best part of her life, tic ought to be horse-whipped in pimlic. There is no crime he could commit the equal of this one. He doesn’t deserve to be called a husband. He is not worthy the name father. He is sim ply a low-down ruffian and the won der is that any woman can continue i to drag out a miserable existence trv i ing to be true to such a man. He is I unworthy of the respect of all se Ts ! respecting men and women.—C. S. i Carr, M. D., in the Purity Advocate. ■ IIBNP I !■[ tIILH BILL SAM’S DICTIONARY By J. L.

No Wonder They’re Having a Good Time ITN ENVER. —M. and Mme. Alexan- J der Danlos of Paris are having the time of their lives visiting all over : the United States. They were here I to see J. H. Meyers. They arrived in New York September 11, and have vis ited acquaintances of wartime days in New York, Boston, Pittsfield, Syracuse, Buffalo, Chicago, Green Bay, St. Paul and Omaha. From here they went to ! Colorado Springs, and then go to Salt | Lake City, San Francisco, Los Ange j les, Las Vegas, Kansas City, St. Louis | and Charleston. At each city they expect to meet the boys wffiom they ! knew in France. M. Danlos is a Paris lawyer. He ppeqks no English and his wife speaks but little. Nevertheless they have bad no difficulty in following their itinerary. “You see,” the French woman explained, “if we get into a railroad station and do not know wffiat to do, w ? e start to talk French as loud bs we can. In a minute we see some young fellow grinning and then we know he has been in the American ex peditionary forces, so we get him to help us out. Everybody in America has been so kind to us that we feel at home wherever we go.” J. H. Meyers Is one of the Amerl "Paddle Your Own Canoe” and Get Husky Madison, wis.—is he a white man? That’s what the freshmen are asking. Os course, in time his tan will w r ear off and the question will be answered. Well, anyw'ay, by pad dling a canoe 1,200 miles this summer, traveling alone and earning his way, studying to occupy his time in camp, Milton H. Erickson, of Beaver Dam, a student In the University of Wiscon sin, found away to build up his health and prepare himself to continue his college course. Pale, underweight, convalescent from Infantile paralysis, and almost too weak to w T alk any distance, he decided last June that he must do something for his health. Starting out alone In a canoe, with $4.90 In cash and a small supply of food, he paddled until late In August —dtrwn the Yahara, Rock and Mississippi rivers, and back up the Illinois, Hennepin canal and Rock. He returned robust, strong and ready for college work. He earned his food along the way by cooking for campers, working for farmers, helping in a fish market, and doing anything that turned up. He re turned with more money than he had fjust Regular ■ ■ Prices I This old reliable firm never conducts special sales and P I we have no week-end prices for the grab-game buyers. fl| We do have about everything that a reasonable man fi would want to eat and we make our prices so low that any 9 one can afford to buy our goods.

E. F. man who was fortunate enough to have been billeted there. Madame Danlos, he says, was a nurse par excellent and that dozens of American boys received tender care at her hands. Since their wartime guests returned to the United States Madame Danlos has kept up regular correspondence with 60 of them. She knows just which ones have married, which ones have children and what the new ar rivals’ names are. She has invited them all to come back “wiz zee wife an’ ze babees.” at the start. Hfs daily average mileage was large; one day he covered 90 miles. Along the way, be read 700 pages of history, 470 pages of psychology, two German books. As he is a pre-medical student, the extra reading gave him a long start in his academic studies. Erickson attracted much attention along, the way because he paddled in swimming trunks and soon was so tanned that he was scarcely recognized as a white man. Campers could not agree whether he was an Indian, Ne gro, Mexican or Japanese. But every where people welcomed him and helped him along the way and he found the trip delightful.
