The home coming rates are not based on any rule which could easily be stated. The following examples will, however, enable one to make his calculations. From a point from which the one-way fare is $ 1, the round-trip fare will be $ 1. I ."> ; from a point from which the one-way fare is $2, the round-trip fare will bo $2.(15.

The fact that the men did not at j tempt to break open and desks or ? drawers proves that they wore ac qunlnted With the internal arrange ments of the offices. They left, a large number of porcelain teeth, not considering them worth carrying. The usual Inquiry has been opened, but the police, owing to the precau tions taken by the burglars, will find their tasks even harder than usual. The firm is insured against theft.

MOUND NOW FOR TREE P.ORLH. l'est Later than Usual, Rut Action Must Re Taken Now if Effective. Clemson College, Aug. 3.-Those who have not yet mounded for thc peach tree borer should give this their imm?diate attention, provided they intend to mound, according to A. C. Conrad!, entomologist of Clem son College. Since this larva kills trees and affects crops of fruit very severely, it is the part of wisdom for every farmer in South Carolina hav ing peach trees to do everything he can to prevent or control the borer. The correct time for mounding In the average season, says Prof. Con radi. is July 1 to July 8, since the worm pupates, beginning July 1, about a half inch from the tree and about an inch below the surface, and the moths, or millers, come out In greatest numbers from July 20 to August 22. However, most things are late this season in South Caro lina and the general tardiness of the season seems to have affected even the peach tree borer. He bas been sluggish in coining out of the tree, but he is hard at it now. Mound all peach trees at once by pulling up the earth around the base to a height of S or 10 inches and leave the mound there until October 25. The mound will settle one or two inches, leaving 6 or 7 inches of soil, through which millers cannot burrow when they get ready to come out a id lay their eggs. An excellent practice for those who do not mound for the peach tree borer is to paint Lhe trunks of the trees with a tree wash consisting of Quick lime.20 pounds. Whale oil soap. 3 pounds. Sulphur. 4 pounds. Water.25 gallons. This wash ls very inexpensive and can be applied very rapidly. Twenty five gallons is a sufficient quantity for washing 325 eight-year-old trees. Directions for making the wash will be found In Circular 25 of the South Carolina Experiment Station, which should be in the hands of every far mer. It may be had by applying to Clemson College. The best plan of all is to paint the tree trunks and then to mound the trees. Constipation Causes Sickness.
