I The Excellent Grocery and Meat Market | H. J. Bracony, Owner, 1001 N. Sixth Street j MARKED DECREASE IN CIP3Y MOTHS DURING PAST YEAR Report of Government Entomologist Shows Progress of Campaign Against Insects Attacking Animals and Crops As Well As the Health of Man Washington, D. C., Dec. 19.—The control of such dangerous insects as the gipsy moth, cotton-boll weevil, alfalfa weevil, green bug and potato tuber moth, has kept the office of the United States Department of Agriculture's entomologist busy during the past year, according to the new annual report. Be sides directing its attention to combat ing insects, that attack crops, the oflice has been a tive in attempting to eradi cate insects that affect the health of man and animals, such as malaria-bear ing mosquitoes, the spotted-fever tick, and the typhoid ftv. Special attention has been given to iusects injuring for ests and those affecting stored products such as grain, flour, prepared cereals, meat and cheese. Work in bee culture has also progressed satisfactorily. The gipsy moth campaign, waged also against its cousin the brown-tail moth 'has been very encouraging, there being a marked decrease this year in the numbers of both these pests. Para sites and beetles that attack these dan gerous insects have been introduced and have been largely instrumental in bring ing about good results. Colored fosters were prepared bv the office illustrating the gipsy moth and its natural enemies and these were posted in all postoffices and town offices in the infected districts and copies were sent to granges and public libraries. The campaign has also been waged by mail and Bov Scouts who have distributed cards bearing the same illustrations. A combination spray, composed of lime-sulphur, arsenate of lead, and nico tine, has been used successfully during the year 'by many orchard growers, to control insects and fungous diseases. Other poisons to control or. hard insects ■have been developed and are now being tested. Arsenical sprays are beiug made more practicable for use in com bating cranberry pests in New Jersey. Effective spraying has also been done in the pecan orchards of the South, in terested growers aiding the department in the work. liemedies are ulso being recommended and developed for pests that endanger apple, peach and pear or chards. The boll weevil did about $30.0-00,- 000 worth of damage to the cotton crop in 1913, as estimated in the new re port of the entomologist. Nearly 18,- 000 square miles of new territory be came infested during the year. Every effort is being made to control these depredations, particularly by the use of powdered orthoarsenate of lead, and hand picking of cotton squares and bolls. Arsenate of lead was tried with varying results and the question of its success under practical plantation con ditions to-day remains undecided. Violets growing around a cotton field seem to give another cotton pest, the red spider, an opportunity to work, and the department recommends the destruc tion of this harmless-appearing flower to control the spider. Other measures suggested as a result of investigations in South < arollna arc the destruction of winter food plants and pokeweed around fields, the plowing of wide dust barriers around isolated infested places and spraying with potassium sulp'hid. Investigations of "'buffalo gnats" and their possible relation to pellagra have continued anil it now seems unlike ly that they have any relation to tfhat dangerous disease. It seems more prob able that the typhoid fly ('commonly spoken of as the "house fly") does more to'transmit this infection along with the other numerous diseases laid at its door. The typhoid fly itself is given his share of attention and means of control Iby treating manure, where the fly breeds, are being developed. It seems that the fly can be almost completely controlled in the manure and t'he value of the fertilizer remain unchanged, if applications of commercial 'borax are made at the rate of .62 pound to 10 ■cubic feet (8 bushels) of manure. Investigations have 'been carried on to discover remedies for insects which damage such forest products as tele graph jkjlcs, railroad ties and tool handles. Users of these products are now putting the results of the office's investigations to practical tests. With hardwood products liaible to attack bv the so-called powderpost beetles it has been found that kerosene and linseed oil are effective repellents against these insects. A rather general utilization of t'hese oils by manufacturers has follow ed this discovery. FATALLY HURT BY EXPLOSION Johnstown, Dec. 19.—Antonio Gol lia is dying at the Memorial hospital from injuries received when he caused an explosion of 25 pounds of powder at his home. The house, whieh was oc upied by six allien families, is a com plete wreck. (irfllia was smoking a cigarette while llllinig a small powder can from a larg er one. His wife called to him to be careful, and as he took the cigarette out of his mouth to reply, a sipark fell in the powder. Some of the occupants of the house received minor injuries, and the shock aroused tllie neighborhood for iniany blocks. SCHOOLS LIKE DENMARK'S FDR THE UNITED STATES Believed That the Danish Folk High Schools for "Grownups" Can Be Successfully Transplanted to the United States Washington, D. C., Dec. 19.—That the Danish Folk High schools for "grownups," which have made pos sible the recent wonderful development in rural Denmark, can be successfully transplanted in modified form to tho United States, is the conclusion reached by H. W. Foght of the United States Bureau ot Education in a bulletin just issued. Mr. Foght has studied both the Danish schools and American rural conditions at first hand, and he be lieves that what the Folk High schools have done for 'rural civilization in Denmark they tfan do for the United States. The place to introduce the new type of school is the region known as the South Atlantic Highland, according to Mr. Foght, embracing all of West Vir ginia. 12 counties in western Virginia; 23 in western North Carolina, and 4 in western South Carolina; 25 in north ern Georgia; 17 in northeastern Ala bama; 45 in eastern Tennessee, and 36 in eastern Kentucky. It is not that those sections are necessarily behind other parts of the country in education, though much illiteracy prevails, hut that the peculiar local conditions de mand some institution like the Danish sehools. There are already a few Folk High schools in the United States, established by Danish immigrants. While grave difficulties have been experienced bv those schools, Mr. Foght is of the opin ion that thew are due to certain special causes that could easily be overccnio in a real attempt to adapt the Folk High school to American life in the mountains. "The Folk High school spirit has emancipated the agricultural popula tion of Denmark," declares Mr. Foght. j ''lt has at least made country people the peers of their city brethren. Thev| have become leaders in affairs, in pro-; duet ion, in distribution, in politics chiefly because they have learned to I think for themselves and to act iude-! pendently of the industrial classes. » | In the I nited States there is great danger of going to the extreme in the! immediately practical and technical.! The work of special schools is in dan ger of focusing too much on making two blades of grass grow where one grew before, on teaching girls to cook an I keep house according to sanitarv regulations and the like. 1 liese things are all necessary and must be taught in the schools, but they ! are utterly insufficient to make us a! really great agricultural nation. It I was not the local agricultural schools and household economics schools that primarily made Denmark a great scion tifle agricultural nation, but the' Folk High schools. \V e need such schools in the I nited State*; schools that would teach a greater love for the soil; that would help Us to measure the good in life by spiritual standards and not bv man-made rules; schools that would help us to rise above the limitations ot locality and State, and teach an un derstanding of the National and even universal in the United States." j HONORS AT ACADEMY Names of Students With High Standing Are Announced Honors for the third month at the : Harrisburg Academy have been an nounced as follows: tirst honors in the upper school, Wil- J Ham Abbot, Burgess Broadhurst, Car ! roll (P.

CRAHAM DENIES REPORT OF TRI-STATE FLOPPING Federals Are Said to Be Discussing the Taking Over of This League for a Farm for Young Players—Business Men in Tri-State Towns Ready Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 19.—-It was learned yesterday that agents working in the interests of the Federal League are now endeavoring to arrange with a syndicate of business men to reorgan ize the Tri-State League and use its clubs as farms for the outlaw organiza tion, at the snine time furnishing to the towns owning franchises a first class brand of minor league baseball. President Gwinuer, of the local team, admitted yesterday that ho had heard something about the project, but did not care to discuss it. Business men iu several Tri-State towns are reported to be read)* to gj into the new venture with their cash of the Federal League will father the plan. The visit of R. B. Ward, owner of the Brooklyn FiMs and a ]>ower in the Federal circuit, and his son, Ralph Ward, to this eity early iu the weok is said to have been for the purpose of looking into the Tri-State proposition. George M. Graham, president of the Tri-State League, Thursuay night said that lie had not heard anything of the reported movement. At tiie meeting of the League at New York last month all the clubs' owners were anxious to start again next year. "At that time 1 know that none of them had any thought of the Federal League and sinco then no word or even intimation has been made tjjiat the league with draw from organized baseball."

Eddie Foster and Alva Williams of the Washington team are playing in dependent'bail in' California. In a letter to a friend Foster declares he is hitting a>bovc .500. His league plays two games a week. It is planned to make tlh-e Central League an eight club proposition next season by adding Voungstown, Ohio; Wheeling, W. Va., and Erie, Pa. In case six clu'bs ouly start one of Canton, Akron or Toledo, Ohio, will replace Springfield, Ohio. In any event the league will be reorganize.! for a period of five years, according to President Louis Heil'bronner. The Federal League will have nothing on the Pacific eoarft next year for range of territory. Salt Lake City is to re place Sacramento. Comiskey's appointment of Rowland to succeed Jimmy Callahan has caused a lot of good natured speculation. A fan remarked yesterday: "Now, isn t that, just like the old Roman t He always was a bear for $25,000 players and $5,000 managers." Tom McCarthy, the well-known scout of the Boston Braves, having helped to 'build up a world's champion team for George Stallings, will now see what !he can do for the other team of that city. •loe Lannin has succeeded in securing the services of this sleut'h for the Red Sox. Major league managers will carry their policy of economy even to the training camps and back again. With few exceptions the crc/ of rookies will bo most moderate, as compared to other seasons. Already many managers have set about paring down the surplus: Roger Bresnahan has asked for waivers on no less than eighteen. The exhibi tion schedules of the northern trips are being arrauged with the view of saving as much transportation and traveling expenses as possible. YANKEE DEAL HANGS FIRE Col.
