CABBAGE SNAKE HARMLESS
Uncle Sam Has Investigated the
Matter and Pronounces the
Snake Harmless.
The cabbage hair-worm is the
subject of Circular No. 32 of the
bureau of entomology, United
States department of agriculture,
the publication of which was made
necessary by numerous inquiries
in regard to the identity and al
leged poisonous nature of the mi
nute worm popularly known dur
ing the years 1903 and 1004 as the
“cabbage snake.” During the
former year the species first at
attracted attention, but was not
considered seriously as it was well
known that hair worms are not in
any degree poisonous in fact
they are perfectly harmless and
even, to a certain extent, benefi
cial, they destroy by parasitism
the pernicious coddling moth and
several species of destructive
grasshoppers or locusts. In 1004'
however, the subject increased in
proportion, the bureau of entomol
ogy frequently received live or
six communications daily in regard
to this creature. In many cases
these were accompanied by clip
pings gleaned from the daily press,
The object of the circular is main
ly to facilitate the correspondence
of the department, to place the
facts of the case on record and be
fore the public and to correct er
roneous reports and mere rumors
which n ci v tf uceii circuiabeu m re
gard to cases of poisonings of hu
man beings. In only one case was
the name of thf* person or persons
who had been killed by eatingeab
bage supposed to be infested by
this hair worm given, and the
postmaster of the city promptly
denied any knowledge of the facts,
all efforts that were made to locate
the origin of the facts being with
out success. It may be assumed
that all other reports were equally
untrue or greatly exaggerated.
In fact, the entire matter was a
hoax save for the fact that the
rumors were placed in such gener
al circulation that the consumption
of cabbage was greatly curtailed,
many persons fully believing in
the poisonousness of the hairworm.
There is no doubt, on the other
hand, that the majority of reports
of damage to the cabbage crop
were founded on facts. We have
positive knowledge of one of these
in Tennessee where fully S5 per
cent of the state's cabbage crop
was lost in lb<4. Similar losses
were reported in various portions
of Missouri, Iowa, West Virginia
and Virginia- From data at hand
it can truthfully be said that thous
ands of cabbage growers incurred
severe losses on account of the un
fortunate “scare" due to the un
wise eireulatioo of the veriest ru
mors.
In support of the statement
which has been made by letter by
the department of agriculture for
the past two years, a Dr. Louis
Leory made tests in order to de
termine whether the hair-worm or
‘‘cabbage-snake" possessed any
poisonous properties. The usual
laboratory animals, rabbits, guin
ea-pigs and domestic animals, were
fed with the worms, raw and cook
ed; extracts from the hair-worms
were prepared, and the animals
fed with them, and the substance
was injected hypodermically, the
final result being reached, as none
of the animals thus treated were
affected, that the "cabbage-snake"
is entirely harmless and the public
rumors and superstitions are fal
laees without semblance of foun
dation. National Review.
THE TRUTH ABOUT IT.
The editor of an exchange, who
is one of the best of writers and
frankest of men, has said one of
the best things in regard to the
waltz that we have ever read. He
speaks of a knowledge born of ex
perience, and his testimony is
worth the consideration of the
young girls who delight in danc
ing. Perhaps they may not have
realized the truth as this man* of
experience bluntly tells it. He.
says:
“The young people who indulge
in the giddy mazes of the waltz
will hear with interest that the
heads of Washington and New
York society have declared that
'sitting' a waltz will be more fash
ionable from now on than dancing.
The ‘sitting out’ embodies the
same position as dancing, the only
difference is that you sit instead of
dance. The man’s right arm is
around the girl’s waist, while his
left hand holds her right. Her
left hand is placed on his shoulder,
while her head rests lovingly up
on his bosom, and all they have to
do is to sit and listen to the music.
“Now that is somethsng like it.
We have always regarded it as
quite a nuisance to have to gallop
a mile or two to get a hug or two.
A room full of people sitting on
sofas hugging to music is more to
our notion. This will give the
old rheumatic brethren (like our
self) another good chance to waltz.
Men waltz, not for the dance, but
for the position, and while a man
may lose his appetite for dancing
he has got to get wonderfully old
before he loses his appetite for
hugging a pretty girl.
“A pretty girl who doesn’t ob
ject to the 'position,' nor to being
‘hugged’ will go on dancing, but
it is well enough for her to know
why her male partner is dancing
with her.
Spoiled Her Beauty
Harriet Howard, of 209 W. -Util
St. New Yolk at one time had her
beauty spoiled with skin trouble. :
She writes : “'1 had salt rheum
or eczema for years, but nothing
would cure it till 1 used Buck ten’s
Arnica S alve.” A quick and sure
healer for cuts, burns and sores.

A NEW HAGAZINE.
Frank P Holland has made a
signal success of Farm and Ranch
and we note with pleasure that on
August 1 he will begin the publi
cation of a new monthly periodi
cal, Holland’s Magazine. This
publication is to be a home maga
zine of high literary character de
signed for a general circulation
throughout the South and South
west. At present no such a maga
zine exists. The Southern and
| Soutnwestern states should readily
support a tirst-class magazine of
the right quality and if the meth
ods pursued by Col. Holland in
making Farm and Ranch are indi
cative of those to be pursued in
the new magazine it certainly
ought to be a winner. His policy
of making good rather than mak
ing promises is fully exemplified
in the advance sheets of Holland’s
Magazine.
The subscription price of the
new magazine is si per year; with
this paper we can furnish both for
$1.75.

PREACHER ENDS HIS LIFE
Rev. Francis M. Keerie Renounces
Methodist Church and Then
Commits Suicide.
The report comes from Fort
Smith that Francis M. Keen, a
Methodist minister, committed
suicide Friday night. Keen came
to Fort Smith from Eureka
Springs last December, having
«lnit the pulpit on account of his
wife’s health, lie engaged in the
insurance business at Fort Smith*
and a month ago surrendered his
ministerial papers, renouncing the
church. Since that time Keen has
been drinking heavily and became
despondent. lie went home on
Friday night, sat down and wrote
several letters anti then took thirty
grains of morphine, in the pres
ence of his family. Keen ordered
his little daughter to fix him a pal
let, but she refused, and he fixed
it himself. Keen then laid down
and died. Doctors were called but
Keen fought them off, refusing to
allow them to give him antidotes.
In one letter which Keen left to
the general public, ha scored the
Methodists, called all of them liars
and fakirs and requested that only
three Methodists of the city whom
he named be allowed to attend his
funeral. Me asked to be buried in
the cheapest of coffins without any
outside box. He belonged to the
Shriners, Knights of Pythias and
Woodmen, but asked that no servi
ces be held over his remains and if
the secret orders wished to do any
thing to do it for his children.
Keen also scored his wife in the
letter. The Woodmen held the
funeral ceremonies. When asked
if he were ready to meet his (rod

children, just before his death
