there is.
interesting entertainments he has been
staging for years at ine schools,
churches, clubs, lode banquets,
~ parks, minstrel shows a night clubs,
where he has hypnotized scores of dif-
. ferent types of men and women,
But there is comparatively little
known of his experiments with hypno-
tism ag an agent in bringing about,
through suggestion, all sorts of amaz-
ing results.
+ He has, for example, caused habi-
tual cigarette smokers to grow sick at
the sight of a cigarette and break off
the habit permanently. He has made a
Grand Opera singer who hated the
taste of onions relish them. He has re-
moved the pain from neuralgia, tooth-
ache, or a sore corn. He has scores of
witnesses to testify to the results and
permanency of these experiments. -
Mr. Roberts, of course, does not pre-
tend to cure any ilness, In his experi-
~ ments, which, generally are requested
2 ‘by people who come to Mr. Roberts, he
stresses that relief from pain does not
remove the cause of the injury. Only
careful medical treatment can do that.
His realm is the mental, not the phys-
ical. :
~The word hypnotism, he explains, is
. derived from the Greek ‘“hypnos”
meaning sleep, This sleep, known as
hypnosis, is induced in various ways,
susceptibility to suggestion being the
most important factor.
Everyone cannot be hypnotized. Some
persons are not susceptible. But from
80 to 90 per cent of people can be hyp-
notized if they do not resist. It is pos-
sible for a man to be hypnotized a-
gainst his will but it requires more ef-
fort than a hypnotist usually employs
and the stunt is an infrequent one.
Mr. Roberts explains that the think-
ing provoked by hypnotism harms the
~ mind no more than exercise injures a
workman's muscles. Concentration al-
ways strengthens the mind. Feeble-
~ minded people cannot be hypnotized.
Chiefly, hypnotism’s benefits are used
to bring relaxation and sleep to those
who need rest. It can be used to banish
pain, not only while the hypnotic state
exists but after it ends.
Mr, Roberts, who lives in King-
ston and’ has a wide acquaintance
throughout this section, will be among
~ the entertainers on Tuesday night, May
| 21, in Kingston Township High School.
~ His exhibition will be one of the fea-
ture attractions of Scott's Ensemble,
an entertainment which will be spon-
sored by Kingston Township Unem-
ployed League, Branch 22.
Enemies Of Tent
Caterpillar-Arise!
Trees and Shrubs Menaced
By Presence Of
Eggs
The probability of heavy damage by
the tent caterpillar in this section of
Pennsylvania this spring, is indicated
by the presence of numerous eggs of
this insect on favored trees, according
to the State entomologists.
These eggs will hatch about the mid-
dle of April and the small worms will
begin to feed on the leaves of such
trees as wild cherry, apple and plum.
~ Each egg mass contains from three
to four hundred eggs. The worms are
social in nature forming a “tent” which
is a familiar sight along roadsides in
orchards, and along fence rows during
~ May and June. As the worms increase
in size, the tent is increased to acco-
modate the colony.
The eastern tent caterpillar is held
in check by many natural enemies
which accounts for the scarcity of the
insect during certain years and in some
districts. A New Jersey authority is
quoted as saying that 1935 may be the
peak year for this pest due to lack of
control by natural enemies. :
To safeguard valuable shade trees,
the entomologists recommend a spray
of one and one-half pounds of arsenate
of lead to fifty gallons of water which
should be applied just as soon as the
white tents are noticed in the small
_ crotches of the tree. Burning the nests
with a flaming torch is sometimes
practiced but this method of control is
too damaging to the bark of the tree
to be recommended. Tents, caterpillars
and all may he successfully removed
from the tree by grasping with the
~ hand or twisting on a forked stick.
The caterpillar should then be crushed.
This should be done on cool, wet days
~ when the caterpillars are in the tent.

Two Year’
s Forest Work =
Harrisburg, May 9, — Pennsylvania's greatest peace-time army, the Civilian
Conservation Corps, finished its second year of enlistment last month.
Enrolled two years ago for Emergency Conservation Work under Washing-
ton’s huge work relief program, the State’s battalion of the vast CCC organiza-
tion completed 4,806,573 man days of
work during this period, statistics just
compiled by the Department of Forests
and Waters disclose.
This huge total of man days worked
was accomplished by a basic enroll-
ment quota of 17,000 in eighty-five
camps located throughout the State.
The projects undertaken during the
encampment included such important
activities as reforestation, forest fire
prevention, road and trail clearings,
water spstem. installation, insect pest
control, bridge construction, stream
improvement, and fish and recreational
dam building.
One of the largest projects, the sur-
vey of timber forests, covered 726,124
acres. There were 445 bridges of vari-
ous types constructed; there were 1664
fish dams built; under stream improve-
ment there were 214 acres of lake, pond
and beach area made more valuable,
288 miles of stream improved, and these
same waters over an area of 35,960
miles were restocked with fish.
Under the new plan for expanding
the CCC movement in Pennsylvania
this work will be continued and de-
veloped to even a greater extent in
1935, and many new projects will be
undertaken,

FARM NEWS
HOT WEATHER
POULTRY PROGRAM
By PAUL G. RILEY
Formerly Professor, Poultry
Extension Purdue University
The months of June, July and August
are the three hardest poultry months
of the year during which to keep faith
in the chickens making a profit, to pay
expenses and to handle such troubles
as worms, mites, lice and hot weather
losses, However, these three months
largely determine next year’s profit on
the pullets being raised. |
The summer months show low prices
for both poultry and eggs. During the
fall, egg -prices are high and poultry
prices low and in‘ the spring poultry
prices are high and eggs low. The
summer is the only period when prices
on all poultry products are low. Un-
less young and old birds are watched
) closely—great numbers of mites and
lice are allowed to develop, which re-
duces produceion of layers and ruins
growth and development of breeders.
‘Watch closely for the presence of mites
and lice and treat houses and birds so
they are eliminated.
Most poultry flocks cannot lay
enough eggs, nor do they have enough
cockrels to sell so that the income is
sufficiently great to pay the feed bill,
consequently, either the hens or pullets
or both are put on partial rations. This
results in a slight immediate saving,
but in a great future loss. '
Hens which go into a moult in the
summer, rarely come back before Jan-
uary or February, Those hens that lay
until October or November came back
into production at the same time. Keep
the hens laying all summer.
Pullets which are roughed through
the summer come into production at
least two months later in the fall, than
they should and during this two
months we have the highest egg prices
of the year and the golden opportunity
for a real fall profit is missed.
Feed a good laying mash to the hens
during the summer.
Feed the pullets a good growing
mash all summer.
Keep hens and pullets free from
parasites.
Above all, don’t ‘lose faith in the
chicken business. It is always good
for the good poultryman,
