They have been quite destructive in some corn fields, especially where corn was planted on sod ground. They have done considerable damage in many pastures where they work underneath the surface to a depth of two or three inches eating off the roots of the grass causing the sod to die, leaving the surface brown. Such areas can easily be peeled off by merely pulling up the sod with the hands and rolling It up almost aa a fug. White grubs are the larvae stage of May beetles which are frequently seen in April, May and June. They are particularly noticeable around electric lights if numerous. Early fall plowing in years that beetles are abundant around lights is one good method of getting rid of a good many of the grubs. For this section if plowing is done during mid September or not later than' the latter part of the month, much good will be accomplished in combatting «!?§• destructive worms. When fields have become much infested with grubs it is a good plan to turn in a bunch of hogs to feast on them. In this case do not ring your pigs. Pigs, will of course, root op the ground and make it look rough, but it is far better to have it in this condition than to suffer the damage caused by the grubs. 1 •*" and exchange farms.

' _____ ^ jlL.J The sroodjwcker has evidently undertaken th* job single-handed, or single-beaked to be more exact, of clearing of borers the pine trees which stand In the back of my yard. I looked at their trunks yest e r day, tattooed from top to bottom with the little holes which his hammering has left in the hard surface. He's doing a thoroughly good job. He believes In promptness In getting on tl.e job. The student whom i call for eight o'clock often wanders in at nine, explaining that the freshman neglected to waken him; the plumber who promises to look after my drains today very often Joes not arrive until tomorrow or the next day, but not so the woodpecker. He is on the job long before sun-up.. I can tell without looking at the clock on the table nesr my bed that it is half-past five because 1 can hear the woodpecker at work. It is every day, too. He doesn't have Thursdays off or stop for rainy days or Sunday. He has probably never heard of labor unions or double pay for working overtime or on holidays. Mclntyre Is not doing so well as one might wish in his work. He is late to class frequently for no reason than that he finds it difficult to rouse himself as early aa eight in the morning, snd almost as frequently he does not go to his recitations at all. He explains to me that neither promptness nor regularity he considers essential to success. They are Incidental virtues, like keeping one's trousers pressed or one's nails polished, but one need not be distressed if he does not possess them. If a fellow gets to an engagement late, that's his lookout, and is after all a trifling matter; if he feels like sleeping late in the morning, why not? He will do his work better when he feels like doing it "What Is your father's business?" I asked Mclntyre. "He's a banker," was the reply. "Well, supposing the paople In charge of the bank should oversleep or decide to go fishing some day and the bank should not open at nine, what would happen?"
