WHEAT-JOINT WORM IS DESTRUCTIVE

Much Trouble Has Been Encountered in Threshing This Year. INVESTIGATION IS MADE. ENTOMOLOGIST OF PURDUE UNIVERSITY MAKES INVESTIGATION AND TELLS OF ITS WORK AND PREVENTATIVEfMEASURES Much trouble has been reported since the threshing season began as a result of the wheat-Joint worm, and the fact that It has ruined a great deal of straw. Farmers In the vicinity of Greensfork were the first In this county to -make complaint against the effects of the Insect. The straw is j damaged so that thrashing it breaks it into small bits and is difficult to separate from the grain. This year Is Is the first time the Insect has been observed in this county. As the result of the effects of the insect a large quantity of the straw from this season threshing will be, practically worthless. An investigation of the insect and its effects has been made by J. Troop, the agricultural experiment station is as follows: The wheat joint-worm belongs to the family Chalcididae, one of the families of parasitic Hymenoptera, which are generally classed as beneficial, but this species .a an exception to the rule. The adult insect is only about one-eighth of an inch in length. Color black, with the Joints of the legs and feet yellow. Professor F. M. Webster of the department of agriculture, Washington, D. C, says of its life history: "The insect may be found throughout the year In its various stages of development in wheat stems. It lives over winter as a larva or grub in cells formed in the stems prior to the ripening of the grain, the adult emerging therefrom in April or May, according to latitude, or sometime after the young grain has thrown up stems and several joints have become exposed. The female using her slender pointovipositor, places her eggs in the straws. The eggs hatch and the young grubs, forming cells, feed in the walls of the stem, reaching their maximum growth by the time the straw becomes fully hardened and ripe. -Wintering in the larval state, they pass a short pupal stage and emerge as adults in the spring." The effect on the straw is to distort it into various shapes, and at threshing time the infested parts become hard and dry and break up into small pieces which are difficult to separate from the wheat. Many farmers are anxious to know whether these insects will injure the grain in the bin, but there is no cause for uneasiness on this account, as they only work in the stem, thereby causing the kernels to become small ad shrunken. Natural Enemies. Like most of our injurious species, this one has a number of parasitic species which feed upon it, and which 6erve to hold it in check. This will doubtless prove to be the case in this instance, so farmers should not hesitate to continue to sow wheat . But there are some Preventive Measures. which shauld be practiced where possible, such as burning the .stubble, where the fields have not been seeded to grass or clover. . Using the straw for bedding for stock and piling the manure for some time until it has become well heated will have a tenden cy to develop the insect prematurely Rotation of crops and using plenty of quick acting fertilizers are' some of the measures indicated. This insect in larval form may be quite easily mistaken for the wheat saw-fly borer (Cephas pygmaeus Linn.) which belongs to a different family, and whose life history is quite differ nt from Isosoma tritici: It Can't Be Beat. The beBt of all teachers Is experi ence. C. M. Harden,j of Silver City, North Carolina, says: "I find Electrio Bitters does all that's claimed for it For Stomach, Liver and Kidney troubles it can't be beat. I have tried it and find it a most excellent medl cine." Mr. Harden is right; it's the best of all medicines also for weakness, lame back, and all run down con ditions. Best too for chills and ma laria. Sold under guarantee at A. G. Lunken & Co. drug store. 30c. CAMBRIDGE CITY. IND. Cambridge City, Ind., July 23.

A. G. Luken & Co. BLIND INSECTS. They Aot Jat m Thoonb They Had Bri and Could See. So far as insects of the caves are concerned the loss of sight which they gradually undergo is sufficiently well understood. The first step is a decrease "in the number of the facets which make up the compound eyes, with a corresponding diminlshmcnt of the lenses and retinae. After four or five generations the eyes become useless. It would be most Interesting to breed these or other blind, creatures of the caves in the light, so s to find out if they would get their sight back. In all animals, including man, it is found that nature tries to compensate for loss of vision by Increasing the power of the sense of touch. Thus the attennae of cave Insects grow remarkably long. It is very curious to find that nothing in their behavior suggests the fact that they are blind. They walk, run, stop, explore the ground and try to escape from the grasp of the bug hunter just as If they really saw. The light of a candle startles them as much as if they perceived it visually. It la a remarkable fact, proving that the ancestors of these creatures could see, that In the embryo stage of their existence they have eyes well developed. FIRST MAP OF THE SKY. It Waa Made 1,420 Yeara Before the Christian Era. At a very early period in the history of astronomy it was felt that the stars should be divided into distinct groups or constellations. This important task has engaged the attention of astronomers from remote times and has only been brought to Its present perfection by a long series of Intellectual efforts. According to Clement of Alexandria, It was Chiron, believed to be-the maker of the first celestial globe, who, 1,420 years before the Christian era, divided the starry heavens into constellations and so mapped out the sky. Newton upheld this opinion, which is further corroborated in the book of Job, where allusion Is made to-Orion, the Pleiades, and the Hyades, a proof that at a very early period there had been a grouping of the stars. Heslod In his "Works . and Days, written 2,700 years ago, also refers to several of, the constellations as though then names were familiar to kto read ers.

With ELEVEN PEOPLE SHOT BY ITALIANS Desperadoes Flee From Off icers Shooting at All in Their Path. THREE ARE FATALLY HURT. ONE WOMAN STANDING ON HER PORCH HOLDING BABE WAS SHOT IN HEAD A GENERAL STAMPEDE FOR COVER. Boston, Mass., July 23. Eleven per sons were shot last night, three of them probably fatally, by two desperadoes who, on being pursued by policemen and a crowd of citizens, fled for two miles through a thickly settled district of Jamaica Plain, fir ing madly right and left and disap peared in the woods near Franklin park. The men are believed to have been two of the gang of three who robbed a saloon in Jamaica Plain after shooting and killing one man and wounding two otheTs. Mrs. Delia Fallon is one of the most seriously injured of last night's vic tims. She was standing in front of her home with her baby In her arms when the two men, pursued by a crowd, came down the street. As they passed her one of them fired and the bullet entered her head behind her right ear. She was removed to the city hospital in a critical condi tion. Herbert E. Knox of Roslindale, night watchman at the Forest Hills cemetery and Edward McMahon, a Dorchester patrolman, each received a bullet in the abdomen and are on the dangerous list at Emerson hospi tal. The others injured are: John Nolan, bullet In leg. Thomas Fleming, shot in hand. Thomas Moore, street car conductor. shot in leg. Officer Ingalls, bullet In leg. Officer Cox, shot in ankle. Patrick McGinn, shot In side. Michael Flynn, head grazed by bullet. Patrolman Thompson, shot in leg. It is believed the desperadoes lay concealed in Calvary cemetery yesterday while the police were hunting for them on account of the previous night's holdup and robbery. Start In to "Shoot Up" Town. Being driven from their hiding place by hunger and fearing that they would be surrounded by the police who were searching the neighborhood, the two men appeared on Charles street in Jamaica Plain about dark and proceeded to "shoot up" the town. They looked like Italians and were roughly dressed. Some citizens who had been assisting in the hunt for the robbers, saw the men and tried to Intercept them, whereupon the two began running, and, with a revolver in each hand, fled along Charles, South, Lee and Keyes streets, firing at every person in their path. Mrs. Fallon was the first mark of the murderous volleys. Messrs. Moore, Flynn, McGinn. Nolan and Fleming and Officer Cox were wounded in succession during the flight of the men to Franklin park. John H. "Vvrightman was shot at but the bullet passed through his trousers leg. Throughout the residential district the front porches of the houses were thick with people enjoying the evening air, while the streets of the business section were filled with throngs. The appearance of the two desperate men, shooting to each side as they ran and shouting as if crazy, caused a general stampede for cover.
