I Do Worms Injure li \> t ! t Lawns? %, The sm all boy who is preparing^ to go fishing h a s a friendly feeling for | earthw o rm s —know n to juvenile ang lers as “fishin’ w o rm s”—^but his fa t h er, w ith a p a r t icu l a r pride in a well- k e p t law n , m a y reg a r d them as eni- mies. The fa t h e r ’s feeling tow a rd the low ly w o rm m a y or m a y n o t be well founded. The com mon im p ression is th a t earthw o rm s are in jurious to law n s , b u t th e U n ited S tates De p a r t m e n t of A g riculture, thro u g h its B u r e a u of Entom o logy, says th a t the dam a g e is probably very light. In fact, is is believed th a t instead of being injurious these w o rm s are really beneficial in increasing the fe r t i l i t y of th e soil by brin g in g to the surface soil from a low e r depth and in this way keeping up a very slight but conintued top dressing. Undter some circum s ta n c e s i t is b e t te r th a t th e w o rm s be exterm inated, th o u g h they are n o t objectionable on house law n s. When they become num e rous on p u ttin g greens of golf links th e ir little earthen pellets are a source of annoyance. In such cases it is recom m ended by th e D ^ p a i tm e n t entom o logists th a t th e soil be drenched w ith kerosene em u lsion. T h is tre a tm e n t gives good results a g a in s t th e common w h ite grub, w h ich is also an enem y to law n s. S a tu r a tin g the oil w ith ' a solution of corrosive sub lim a te is also recom-' m ended, b u t i t should be rem em b ered th a t th i s p r e p a r a tio n is deadly poison and th e g r e a test care should be used in its prep a r a tio n and use. Three ounces of th is substance should be dissolved in tw o q u a r ts of w a te r in some glass or glazed vessel w h ich w ill n o t absorb th e poison. The stock m ix tu r e of th is p r e p a ration is suf ficien t fo r 50 gallons of w a ter, or practically th e capacity of the ordin a r y oil b a rrel. This diluted m ixture should he applied to th e law n a t the ra t e of from 11-3 to 3 gallons to each square y a r d , in case th e law n is yonng or new ly established. A stro n g e r application, n o t to exceed 3 gallons, can be used on older sod. I SHE VAMPS WITH HUMOR f • | »H!' e T a y T incher of black and w h ite is gone. Everybody re m e m b e rs th e black and w h ite Eay Tincher—black and w h ite from the tip s of th e feet th a t even comedy cotild n e t m a k e grotesque, to the ja u n ty head dress invariably reposing on her black h a ir . She is gone from th e realm of comedy—forever—she says, and tells th e reason in h e r own inimitable F a n T incher m a n n e r. ‘T have reverted to ty p e ! I started o u t in life—screen life, of course, as a vampire. I played a heavy role in D. W. Griffith’s “B a ttle of th e Sexes,” and then, a f t e r th a t, I- s ta r t e d play in g comedy roles. In “Don Quixote,” I w a s feato red w ith De W olf H o p p er, and la te r in other P ine A rts produc tions, “Sunshine D a n ” and \Mr. Good.” I hoped to again play “heavies” or even ingenue leads, b u t m y rep u tatio n alw a y s caught up w ith *‘Xow a t la s t I am to appear w ith U n iversal in roles I care for again, ^ r e e n farce has never appealed to me. Comedy is, a t best, a tra n s ito r y en tertain m e n t th a t seldom lingers in a person's m ind a f t e r it is over. D ram a is a different m a tter. D ram a affects —to r dram a is life. T h a t is w h y I w a n t to play in dram a s ag a in ; I w a n t to p o r tr a y life. “B u t life, if not a farce, contains a larg e elem e n t of comedy, and when I portray “vamps,” as has been my ambition for a long time, I am not going to play the B a ra-kind of vamp, for in my opinion that sort of vamp h a s never existed except in the ednema. The ingenue type of vamp, th e saucy salam a n d e r, is th e only vam p in existence. W h a t m a n in real life would be fooled by a dead w h ite skin, grotesque lips and a j>osed grace th a t is anything b u t attractiv e ? I t is th e vam p who has a sense of hum o r th a t can really hold a m an. She laughs a t him , even as she is seeking to allure him —and he adores it. I t ’s th e greatest fun in the w o rld playing vam p ire roles. I enjoy them . T laugh as I play the most tra^c scenes because I appreciate th e satire in them.” HOW COW TESTING HELPS CREAMERIES Twelve per cent, of the patrons of th e co-operative cream e ry of Dover, M n n ., are m e m b ers of th e local cow testin g association. Though only 12 p e r cent of th e number, th e y receive about 63 per cent, of th e m o n ey paid by the cream e ry to its patrons.' H iis is no t because of la r g e r herds, b u t because of b e t ter cows and b e tter diary practices. In Ja n u a r y th e retu r n s to dairy men w h o belonged to th e cow -test ing association w e re $14.19 per cow, w h ile th e re t u r n s to non-fcaembers w ere $5.95 per cow. A t th e sam e r a te, the re t u r n s fo r th e y e a r would be alm s o t $100 p e r cow m o re fo r the herds belonging to association mem bers. This w a s b ro u g h t abou t by elim inating low producers and feed in g th e r e m a inedr according to know n production. D u ring th e y e a r 1914 th e cream e ry produced 243,000 pounds of b u tter. F o r 1917 th e q u a n tity increased to 330,000 pounds as th e num b e r of cows w a s approxim a iely th e same fo r the tw o years, th e g a in w a s due to in creased production per cow and not to an increased num b e r o f cows. Not only w a s th e r e a gain in business fo r the creamery, b u t the patrons were better satisfied, because the received larger returns. 39c White Galetea, 32c For middy blouses, cMldren’s wear, etc. 27 iache ride. 65c White Poplin, 59c P e r suits, separate skirts, etc. 3€ inches wide. 65c to 79c P retty Voiles, 58c Over 93 different pieces and a great variety of styles.
