Most of the stuff offered for sale was gar- den truck, and while it was all nice and fresh it showed the effects of the long spell of dry weather. Blackber- ries made their appearance for the first time but the crop will be small if it does not rain soon. rsitr——— pp ————— ——Joseph Hergesheimer, well known author and magazine writer, of West Chester, was a luncheon guest at” ‘the Brockerhoff house, on Fri- day, enroute to State College where he was booked for a lecture, that evening, to the teachers attending the summer session. NOTED NATURLIST CAPTURES RATTLER ON OLD TUSSEY. Ernest Thompson Seton, world fa- mous naturalist, had a rattling good send-off from the Penn State nature study camp in the Seven Mountains, where for three days he was the idol of seventy campers as he told and showed them tricks of his wild life friends of the forest. As his automobile passed over the mountain trail from the camp to State College, where he was to ad- dress 1000 summer session students, Seton spied a 3-foot rattlesnake coil- ed in the roadway ahead of the car. Stopping, he quickly captured the reptile, placed it in a potato sack and tied it to the running board of the car. Rattling his displeasure all the way, the journey to the campus was no joyride for the unexpected passenger. Stopping in town, the car was given wide berth by stu- dents recognizing the famous natural- ist, for the ominous rattling contin- ued, louder than before. However, the reptile kept his fangs to himself and rattled his way back to. the camp where his troubles ended in the frying pan as the second group of nature campers served him for din- ner Sunday. Dining on rattlesnake meat is now a traditional custom at Penn State nature camps, those eat- ing it becoming members of the camp society, the “Den of Rattlers.” Mr. Seton was high in his praise of the nature study camp idea that has swept the country since Penn State blazed the trail six years ago with the pioneer camp designed to instruct public school teachers in na- ture’s own plant and animal life lab- oratory. This was the first camp of its kind visited by Seton. and he declared it ideal and a wonderful op- portunity for teachers to present facts to children. , “Pennsylvania leads all States in conservation,” Mr. Seton declared, and was interested in the fact that the State Conservation Association was organized at State College less than ten years ago. He visited the Bear Meadows district near the na- ture camp and declared it an amaz- ing and profitable territory for bot- anists. PLANS FOR CENSUS TAKERS UNDER WAY. When the vast army of 100,000 cen} sus takers swoop down on America next year there will be in Washing- ton another small army of clerks transcribing the incoming records and preparing reports for the Presi- dent and Congress. . The census bureau already is mak- ing preparations for taking the fif- teenth decennial census. Tentative report forms are being drafted, extra office space is being made available for the 6,000 temporary clerks who will be employed, and machines . are being adjusted for the coming task. The average mind cannot conceive of the stupendity of recording a brief history, for that is in reality what a census is, of more than 120,000.000 people. The actual enumeration will require only 30 days in rural districts and half that time in cities. If it were not for the machines used in tabulating the census, the work probably would not be finished before time for the next one to be taken. The men and women who ac- tually canvass the country have a simple job compared with the clerical phase of it. The 100,000 enumerators work un- der 550 supervisors. The country is divided into sections and subdivided into civil districts. These population counters record the statistics on dou- ble-faced sheets with a capacity of 200 names. ‘When the sheets reach the census bureau they are transcribed on cards which have been ruled into 24 parts. Figures and combinations of figures are used instead of words and the transcription is effected by means of a punching machine. Each of the 24 sections of the card is perforated in such a manner as to denote certain facts in regard to the individual whom the card represents. The cards are then placed in a machine which automatically classi- fies them according to sex and if de- sired further classification may be made as to color, age, etc. They next are taken to the ma- chine, upon which the census officials pride themselves most—the recording machine. It was invented by a bu- reau official especially for census work, and as one of the chiefs said, “There is nothing like it on earth.” It will print 60 different items simul- taneously at the rate of 400 a minute. During the coming census 48 of these machines are expected to dis- pose of over 3,000,000 cards a day correctly. The perforated cards are stacked in one side of the machine and descend through complicated me- chanical apparatus which, by means of the perforations, operate from one to 20 sets of type. printing the totals of all of the divisions of the cards on a large sheet of paper. This con- stitutes the permanent record from which the government printing office publishes the final report. ————— Ap nse ——Robert. - Cline Barnhart, of Bellefonte, and Grace Elizabeth Mc- Clellan, of Milesburg, were granted a marriage license at Cumberland, Md., the latter part of the week.

FARM NOTES. — Strawberry beds will develop stronger and more productive runner plants if side-dressed with nitrate of soda and superphosphate. —Do not forget to provide salt for dry cows and heifers on pasture. There should also be a good water supply and extra feed when pasture gets short. —Dahlias require plenty of water and close cultivation. Remove sur- plus buds to insure beautiful blooms. A dressing of bone meal will prove beneficial. —Spraying with bordeaux mixture is an absolutely essential practice in successful potato culture. Pennsyl- vania farmers spray early and often to control disease. —Careful cultivation of the ground to conserve moisture and keep down weeds is as necessary for the flower- ing perennials as for every other type of plant growth. —“Safe,” “sure,” and ‘‘cheap” are terms which may be applied to dairy cows when home-raised, provided they are of good breeding, from healthy cows, and well grown. —Green feed added to the ration will aid in keeping the hens in pro- duction. Be sure that there are no mites in the poultry house and make it as comfortable as possible in every way. —The time to select specimens for exhibition at fairs and farm products shows is during harvesting. Pick typical specimens. Size does not al- ways indicate superiority or excel- lence. —Flea beetles can be controlled by spraying with arsenate of lead or cal- cium arsenate, say State College en- tomologists. Add three or four pounds of the material to 100 gallons of bordeaux mixture. —Among the garden crops which can be planted in late July and early August are endive, kale, kohl-rabi, lettuce, radishes, spinach, and late turnips. ‘Keep the garden working for the family larder. —Comb honey should not be left in hive very long after it is sealed, es- pecially at the close of the honey flow. The bees will continue to add propolis to the sections and will stain them as long as they remain in the hive. — — Although culling can be practic- ed as soon as the chicks are hatched, nearly 40 per cent. of an average flock of hens will probably have to be culled between June and Septem- ber.

Lumber, Sash, Doors, Millwork and Roofing labor and feed will be needed to ob- tain equal returns from the flock. —Do not let milk in cans stand in the sun while waiting for the hauler, say Penn State dairy specialists. Provide shade, and cover with a wet blanket or canvas. Such simple pre- cautions help to keep the milk cool and prevent loss. —Roses will need attention this month. Discourage a too heavy cane growth by pinching out the tips of the shoots. Keep all suckers cut out and romove all dead wood. Mulch well during the hot weather. Grass clippings will be good for this pur- pose. —Galinsoga, or frenchweed, is found in practically every section of the State. Although primarily a weed for waste places and gardens, it also invades fields, river banks, lawns, truck land, roadsides, and cultivated lands generally. Since the plant is an annual, it can be controlled by preventing seed formation. —Promptness in harvesting and marketing perishable crops is of great importance in very hot weath- er and in very wet weather. Lettuce may become almost worthless in a day after the heads are formed. Sweet corn often loses much of its sweetness and becomes tough if al- lowed to stand in the field a day too long or is not marketed very soon af- ter being harvested. —Culling should not be considered as a substitute for correct manage- ment of a flock of hens. Even the good producers may cease laying early in the summer if proper care is neglected. Good producing hens may become thin if not fed sufficient- ly. Total feed consumption can be increased usually by giving a mois- tened mash once a day throughout the summer months. —Don’t allow the chicks to be out in the direct, hot rays of the sun all day. If they have no natural shade, provide some; it will pay well. Don’t allow those chicks to brood in dirty quarters. Clean the coops often and at least once a week give them a good spraying with some good insect- icide. It is much easier to keep the lice and mites down than to get rid once they get a start.

Since a few inferior specimens often govern the price paid for the entire pack, careful grading must be done to insure uniformity in size, shape, color, and ripeness. —Horse nettle grows in pastures, meadows, gardens, and cultivated crops in many counties of the State. Keep the shoots cut down to com- pletely starve the rootstocks. In large areas, frequent cultivation, as in check-rowed corn, with hand hoe- ing for stray shoots and after culti- vation, is good control methods. Smother crops or summer fallow will also control this pest. —Subscribe for the Watchman. rms ly fen — POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR JURY COMMISSIONER. We are authorized to announce that James C.
