Fires Thdt Never Go Out

In Siam is a fire that not only lasts ‘for wyears but has what have been aptly termed “lineal descendants.” It is to be ‘found in a Buddhist tempile near Bangkok, where every fourth | year at a certain period the priests 7light a fresh fire in a big brazier. { This flame is kept alive for four years i and is in turn extinguished after supplying a brand to igmite its successor. | Inasmuch as this practice. has obi tained for upward: of two centuries | the Buddhist fire of Bangkok is in a | sense the oldest in the world. : ' Another long term fire is said to i elist at Sarhad, Persia. This flame is { a symbol of religious fervor and it is édeath to extinguish it; it has burned §for 70 yvears. In explanation of this | curious rite it is explained that the | Persians rigid Mohammedans and regarding their former fire worshipping faith with -detestation, nevertheless suffer the Sarhad flame to continue to display their gratitude for a service rendered a high official of the Persian government many years ago. At that time, it is sald, a pious Parsee,

who had come to trade at Sarhad wasx the bappy means of saving the grand vizier from assassination. So the grateful shah of that day ordered that the fire Xigz{wd by the Parsee should be kept alife indefinitely. There are some regions of the earth, like those inhabited by the Eskimos, where the motive for retaining fires for long periods Bes in the great difficulty of obtaining means for lighting new ones. One traveler reports seeing a fire in Lapland that had. not been extinguished during seven Vears. The keeping up of fires for vears at a time is said to be sometimes an incident of a Sicilian vendetta. The wronged individual when lighting his “fire of vengeance” is said to take solemn oath that it shall not be extinguished until his thrist for revenge shall have been satisfled by the death of the offending person. There is on record a trial in Palermo wherein it was shown that the accused, charged with murder, -had kept his kitchen fire alight for five yunfi : ,

They are small, i glender, white grubs, about haif an i inch long when they are full ‘grown. j i Infested stalks of corn may bepulledi i out easily and will break off at the | place where the root-worms .are at i work, leaving the greater part of the ‘roots in the soil. Frequently stalks | ! tnfested by the root-worm. are. blown | {to the ground by ths wind, the root | | system having been s 0 cut off that.the | stalks cannot stand the strain. Bowi man and Pressley have shown how a | eontinuous cropping of corn on the ! same ground will very soon increase the number of root-worms to an alarming extent, and consequently decrease i the yield. Rotation of crops is the imost. effective preventive of rootworms. The beetles of the root]worms usually deposit their eggs iat the old infested fields. My changing the corn frowm such a field to another | whick was not in corn the preceding vear, these eggs are left behind.

A Joknson, of the Cojorado Experiment siation, recommends the following: ) Strychnia sulphate, one ounce; potassium -cvanide, " threequarter opunce; eyrup, one pint: wheat, one bushel ofl of anise, one.tablespoonful. Dissolve the strychnia saiphate in a pint of bYoiling water. Dissolve the potassium cyanide in a little hot water in a separate vessel. Mix the syrup with the potassium cyanide and add the solution of ‘strychnine sulphate stirring the mixture thoroughly. Add the oi]l of anise. 1t is important that the substances be mixed{_i'n this order, for when the sirychnia and cyanide are put together the cyanide tends to pre‘¢ipiate the strychnia. The syrup some swhat thickens the mixture so fhat the separation takes place more slow. jy. Put the wheat in a vessel which does not leak.and pour the poismm over it. Stir ustil every grain is wet. Then sprickle in a pound or two of fine cornmeal to take up the extra moisture and coat the gralns with an outer layer of poison. The poisoned grain should be distributed on the day in which it is made, since it deteriorates rapidly. Plgce about a teaprobaby be sufiiclent for » town of
