Franklin Sherman, Chief of the Division of! Entomology, has found some "important fact about this insect pest and believes that, it will attack in abput three weeks, at which time another brood have been hatched out.. The following infor mation, secured through Mr. Sher man observations, will be of Interest to farmers in the affected districts: "The great bulk of the worms which have caused the damage are now maturing; they must now chan ge to the chrysalis, then to the moths, the moths must lay egg, and eggs must batch, before another destruc tive, generation, we are, therefore, now due to have an interval of about three weeks during which the worms will be less numerous of course there will be some present all the time. During :' this interval the beans should recover to a large extent for the worms do (except in worst cases) eat the older leaves, and they do not eat-the growing bud. " ' f ; : "Between the lstand 10th. of September the next brood of worms is due to hatch out, and, if they are numerous enough tp be destructive they ,1 should ma3e their presence evident :'. before . September 15th. Whether they will be numerber enough to make treatments necessary no living mam can foretell.: ..You can figure the probabilities either way from the following established facts: (1) The insect has been witjj us many years, but this is the first time it has been very serious, this would lead us to believe that the next generation, may fall to its usual inconspicuous level, but (2) , On the other hand I have observed only a very small percentage to be attached by oither insect, parasites,' or dis ease and this would lead to the be- eext generatiotf may fully as large as this one. Ai be tween these two lines of reasoning I incline to the optimistic belief that the next generation will be notice abler but not so destructive as the present generrtioh.,.---: "The remedy! Poisons, same ma terial and same methods of applying as for potato-beetles.' - But nobody knows,' yet what strength of poisons the beans' plants can stand, and we know that Paris Green is apt to burn leaves. 'We are giving the prefer ence to a dry dust mixture at rate of 1 T5ound powdered arsenate of lead to 8 pounds slaked (dust, or hydratedl lime. Dust on lightly and evenly, enough to whiten the young leaves, top" part of plant. My own tests show, this to be a good remedy, and we have reason to believe that it will be safe to bee the forage it stands in field 2 weeks or more after treating,' but we expect to test this matter and announce results before time to use the hay , i;?'And if a merchant or farmer lays in a stock of the remedy which there is no present use fori it will still be useful next spring for potato beetles, tobacco worms, caterpillars, or any other leaf-eating insects."

Ccf! -ACLE SUIi : . , ACCICEf IT RECALLED After a practice dive of severs 1 hours' durstion, cruising submerged at a'dept of 65 ft., the United States submarine - suddenly because unmanageable, and began to sink. Something had apparently " gone wrong with the Kingston controls (operaUngthe ballast tank), and the crew was unable to bring the craft to the surface. All our submarines are now. equipped with blowers whfqh empty the ballast tanks auto matically whenever the submarine sinks to the depth which is its' safety limit. In this particular submarine the safety limit happened to be 300 ft. 'The boat sank, to that depth, when' the automatic blowers sudden ly functioned and the craft shot up ward like a cork. The suprlse.of crew can be well imagined when, as the boat neared the surface, there was a mighty crash and the ascent suddenly stopped. ' Instead of bob bing out on the surface, the sub marine had come up under a three masted schooner which was sailing peacefully on Its way, its crew una ware that a submarine was any where near. - ' The U-boat, which was one of the latest and largest American , type, struck crosswise of the schooner's keel, about One-third aft of the bow, which was reared several feet oat of the water as the submarine's con ning : tower caught its keel. The bow of the submarine also went high out of the water. The schooner, having all sails set and running be fore tha.wind, continued to drive on to the deck of the U boat. Thus locked together, the two' boats be gan drifting down wind. : Several members of the schooner's crew, thinking the craft had gone on the rocks, leaped overboards. Other took to the liteboats. Because of the crippled condition of. the sub marine its commander refused to tempt submerging again. ' The sit uation was surveyed through one of the two, periscopes, which was un damaged in the accident. Then the forward deck hatch was opened. Two officers climbed but, and with the aid of ropes reached the deck of the schooner. The submarine was then closed up while the officers di rected the lowering of the sails. '. After the two vessels had been brought ' around in the wind . the, schooner's sail were used to pull it, stern first, clear of the sub. v a Beside losing one of its periscopes, the submarine-bad a big dent in the forward deck, and the front of its conning tower was stove in. The schooner was not seriously damaged but was leaking quite badly. 1 Cruis ing on the surface, the submarine took the schooner in tow and both vessels went into port and dry deck.

"S cert r t en.' la I t EXTRAVAGANCE ONE OF THE PRIME FACTORS High Cost of UvlnJ b to a Larie Extent Made So By Mr. Average Citizen. , - A remarkable feature of the pres ent era of high prices is that neither a scarcity of products nor abnormal prices seem to check buying. The situation , comes rather to be an invitation ; to recklessness xin the spending of money than to economy in buying and to saving. Perhaps the feeling that money counts for so little and that it might as well go. anyway and for one thing as another, explains in part this peculiar ; situation. Certainly the buying power of the America dollar has been decreased about for ty per cent, and some estimates make it decline in value still more. What ever Its exact value relative to the pre-war period, money "talks" more quietly today than for a year. Yet the enormous amount of mon ey in circulation means that more people are in possession of fairly large . sums than in normal time. This of course is readily explained by high wages during the war and to the present time, and by the econ? oray, largely forced, while hostilities were in progress. . While the big for tunes of the war have gone into the hands of the few wage inrceases and enforced economy for a year, and a half affected large portions of the people, many of whom had not been accustomed to the possession of more than actual expense money before. Now the reaction has set in, and those who saved during the war and were forced to refrain from the ex tensive use of certain necessities and almost completely from the use of luxuries are now having their fling. They accept high prices as a matter of course, since big figures have been in the air from the time America en tered the war and since they now have the "good". . That this reaction is something of a mania for spending, having going and enjoying is not to be doubted, and that it is an acclerating force in the matter of high prices is very clear. , Of course it did not start the prices upward there were enough other causes for that but at the present rate of extravagance in the use of money top figures on the great ma jority of commodities are likely to remain: for an indefinite period.
