Insecticides for Potatoes.
Tho discussion that has been go
ing on tho past season in ' the col
umns of the Maine Farmer over the
best methods of freeing potato vines
from tho larva) of the Colorado
bootle doals with a mattor of suoh
magnitude as to be almost beyond
computation. When :t is considered
that a single hill of potatoes oould
not bo grown in any part of our
broad country without protection in
some way from the presence of this
beetle, the question of the best
method of accomplishing the objcot
sought becomes as important as tho
planting of tho crop. Without both
lhere can bo no harvest.
We dropped into tho uso of the
arsenical poisons and Paris groen as
tho most readily available form for
\isc, for tho reason that it was plaoed
before us for tho purpose, and ex
perience proved that it would do tho
work effectively. We have depended
upon it all these years with scarcely
a thought whether anything bettor
was possible or anything different
called for. Paris green killed tho
larv.T and that was all that ?vas
cared for.
Other preparations have been
offered ns substitutes, and with them
came tho claim on tho part of some
that they acted ns ft fertilizer and
gave bettor crops than whero the
green was used. Several corres
pondents have clearly shown from
their experence that Bug Death
proves to bo a bettor article for use
than Paris green, lt kills tho larva?
promptly and effectively whilo at
the same time tho yield of potatoes
is larger than after Paris green.
This lins proved to bo tho case in
numerous trials, and so far ns we
know there have been no trials
brought forward to provo tho con
trary. Scientific examinera, not find
ing any known poisons in tho nrticlo,
have left us to infer that it will not
kill the pest. The belief is now held
by ninny growers, men who are close
observer?, that Paris green has the
effect to start a rust on tho vines to
which il is npplicd. It hus long
been known that it "scorched" the
leaves whenever tho application
proved too strong. So long as it is
known that tho green does not dis
solve in the water with which it is
mixed it is not unreasonable to con
clude that a lesser mixture than that
which "scorches" may have a moa
sure of damaging effect, though nt
the time such effect may not he
noticeable. There are farmers who
claim to have discovered, under a
glnss, ft dumaging effect from the
preseuee of even a light application
of the green on the tender leaves of
the growing vines. The theory fol
low? that the rust thu? started con
tonea to extend and thus causes an
earlier death to the potato tops than
whero no green has been applied.
Certainly it i? not unreasonable to
question whether arsenic may not
poison a tender growing leaf. This
matter is of sufficient importance to
call for investigation, and might well
claim the attention of tho experi
ment stations. It is surely not a
subject to be dropped without care
ful experimentation.
Of course the claim that, this or
that acts as a fertilizer on the grow
ing crop to which it is applied is
something requiring more proof be
fore it will generally be admitted.
If it be n fact, however, that Paris
green causes or hastens rust, blight,
and decay while Hug Death has no
effect of the kind, but leaves the
vine? to go 011 with tho full and
natura! growth of the tuber?, the
increased yield in tho latter case
would bo accounted for. It is a fact,
noted in our observation and found
in our experience, that fields of pota
toes treated witli Hug Death gene
rally have held groen and growing
longer than whero Paris green has
been applied.
Prof. Woods told the Massachu
setts farmors the other day that "no
ad?quate substitute for the arsenical
poisons had yet been found." It
seems to us that in view of the ex
periments and experience given in
Tho Farmer of so many intelligent
farmers last season that such a elaim
is too sweeping unless tho proof is
abundant, and if so, surely it should
be presented. If observing farmors
elaim to have discovered a damaging
effect from the use of tho poison green
it is a matter calling for investiga
tion.
The season of 1902 is not far nway
and now is tho timo to gather in the
facts. What tho potato growers
want to know is whether tho arsen
ical preparation cnn in any way in
jure the growing plant, hasten its
death and retard tho perfection of
the tuber. Tho chemical analyses
lately given in our columns empha
sized tho necessity for so treating an
to allow tho plant to develop tho
largest possible amount of starch.
Whatever conserves this one end
is demanded ; whatever retards is
sure to causo heavy loss to the
grower and the final destruction of
the potato. Our experiment stations
and careful observing farmors can do
no better servico than to dotormine
thin one question, for it means mil
lions to tho farmers of Maine.

CHAPTER I.
nILLIE AROS was the only
child of Mr. and Mrs. James
Aros. They were not wealthy ; on
the contrary, it took difficult labor of
both mother and father to supply,
their daily needs and to give to their
little daughter such an education as
was proper. But, alas ! a sad blow
oamo to Millie. When a girl of
fifteen years she was left a poor and
lonely orphan, with just a few pen
nies with which to procure the neces
sities of lifo, to work her way in the
oold and selfish world as best she
could. She waa lonely, but had not
long to meditate upon tho subject of
what she should do to obtain for her
self a decent living ; therefore she
accepted her fate with her best grace.
She decided to lead the life of an
actress, and entered upon the stage.
Thus she soon won for herself a
sufficiency to supply all of her daily
needs and obtained fame in her pro
fession. Sho was known the world
over for her beauty and grace and
perfect success as an actress. People
came for miles to hear and sec her
plays ; lier photos graced tho win
dows of stores and dwellings
throughout thc country, and they
wero in such demand that large
prices wero paid for their possession.
Frank Stephens saw one of her
plays advertised, and he determined
to find out something of tho beauti
ful and graceful Millie, whose fame
had spread abroad. He traveled
many miles to sec her next play.
Frank's father possessed abundant
wealth and nothing was withheld
from Iiiiii that his boyish heart could
desire. Ho was a handsome young
man of twenty-two and a great fa
vorite in tho society of Bennets
burgh.
When Frank reached tho theater
it was crowded, for the play had be
gun. Suddenly a loud shout arose
in tho audience, and upon looking to
find tho cause, ho beheld the most
beautiful girl it had over been his
privilege to see. It was no other
than tho now lovely and accomplished
Millie, who appeared in a robe of
pure white, with a crown of orange
blossoms upon her brow, and enter
ing the stage with slow steps. A
smile illumed her countenance. She
was tall, with expressive brown eyes,
over which drooped long, black
lashes. Her hair was coal black,
waving gontly, and hanging in dainty,
clustering curls about her faoet It
was arranged in a stylish and becom
ing manner, by one of Bennetsburgh's
most famous hair dressers. Her ruby
lips wore parted, displaying two rows
of pearly teeth, and her cheeks were
tinted with roses. Her neok and
arme were b?re, draped with lace and
ribbons, and as she entered upon the
stage, she cast her smiles abroad, at
the same time bowing with that air
of natural grace so becoming to her,
as she was greeted with lund ap
plause.
She saw Frank and wondered
what name the handsome yonng
strangor bore, who seemed to be so
interested in hor, and oast a constant
gaze upon her. She was pleased
with the appearance of this strange
man. As for Frank, he was imme
diately captivated by her beauty and
graco. It is needless to tell how he
enjoyed tho evening-not the play,
howover, but the beauty his eyes be
hold-watching for the occasional
glances which she bestowed upon
him. A great longing seized his
heart, and something much liko love

arose in it. He thought her the
most oharming being bo had ever
beheld.
After the play had ended h
wended his way among the crowd of
admirers to the side of proud little
Millie, to whom he sought iutroduc
tidn. She greeted him warmly and
recoived a cordial grasp of his hand
in return. Her eyes danced and
sparkled with pleasure as they
entered a conversation. He won her
admiration, and for many eveniugs
following was seen in the theater by
her side. Her other admirers grew
despondent, and as Frank came often
and seemed to win her affections
completely, they became jealous
Finally the engagement of Frank
Stephens and Millie Aros was an
nounced. The news spread abroad
and soon reached tho ears of Mr
and Mrs. Stephens. They were
I angry and endeavored to dissuad
I Frank from the course he was about
to persue, but to no avail. He had
determined what he should do, and
nothing could change his plans. M
and Mrs. Stephens then deolared
that he should never enter their
home again or receive another cent
of his inheritance. But Frank was
independent, and, with a brave hoart,
decided to accept his fate without a
murmur and receive his beautiful
bride as his own. In a short while
they were married and both appeared
upon the stage.
Eight years were spent thus ; then
their greatest desire was to support
and educate their only daughter,
Her, and give her such ednoation as
would fit her for any station in lifo.
Her inherited tho beauty and
grace of her mother and was the
pride of hor parents. Her ohatter
entertained them many hours. She
made tho heart of her father happy
When ho came home, tired from his
labor, she climbed upon his knee and
placed her arms rouud his neok, kiss
ing him repeatedly. He forgot his
weariness when ho saw the love of
his darling. The heavy lines in her
mother's face softened when she be
held the child's happy oonntenance
and knew of her love for both par
onts. No two could resemble eaoh
other more than Her and her mother.
Though she had inherited her father's
mild, sweet disposition and self-de
termination, she had her mother's
pride.
But alas, a sad blow fell upon tho
Stephons family. Millie's health
failed and she was compelled to quit
her occupation. Soon afterwards
Mr. Stephens was thrown from his
horse and killed. He was thon
brought home to his wife and little
daughter. Millie was in ill health at
this time, just recovering from a
long illness, and tho shook was too
great for her. She went into hys
terics when she saw the form of her
loved one cold and still in death.
She immediately thought of tho
happiness they had experienced dur
ing their married life, and, how they
had loved each other with a devoted
love, and labored together to support
and cduoate their darling. Her
heart yearnod for that love and pro
tection whioh he had given her.
How devoted he was to her no one
could ever know. Millie was only
an actress-yet how willingly and
happily had he given up the gayetits
of Bennetshurgh's society, his future,
his home, and tho love of father and
mother, for hort She placed kiss
after kiss upon bis palo face. Sho
was too sad to weep. "Ob, my dar
ling Frank, my own true love," ehe
moaned. Uer face waa ghastly
white and she swooned upon bia
breast. Little Her waa only five
year?, old at thia time. She was
greatly bewildered and could not
realise what bad happened, but
knowing her father waa gone, and
her mother pale and unconscious, she
sank into a chair and burst into tears.
Mrs. Stephens lay qu ite ill and
suffered greatly for a year after ber
husband's death. Their small store
of money was soon exhausted and
no more oame to them, so they were
often in want. Her accepted her
fate patiently and ministered to the
wants of her sick mother as best she
could. She would occasionally earn
pennies by running errands, and waa
suoh a lovable ohild that small coins
were often given her. But these
were not auffioient td Bupply their
needa. All of the valuables of the
house, as well as their little cottage,
went to settle their debts. Only one
article of value remained ; thia M re.
Stephens had determined to keep
for Her. It was an exquisite dia
mond ohain, bought by Frank ?Ste
phens for bia lovely bride, Millie.
The purchase of this expensive article
had taken the last penny of Frank's
wealth, but be had determined bia
Millie should possess it. It waa
worth a small fortune within itself.
A large locket of gold hung from it
and bad these words engraved upon
ita Burface : "With endless love from
Frank Stephens to his darling Mil
lie," together with the date of their
marriage. In this looket were tho
?hotos of Mr. and Mrs. Stephens,
lillie had worn the ohain constantly
since her husband's death and found
great comfort in it.
At tho time ray story opona, Uer
ant by tho bedside of her sick mo
ther, gently brushing the curies from
her palo brow and extending to her
all her childish sympathy. "Darl
ing," said Mrs. Stephens, "Mama
will not be with you long, for she is
going to meet papa ; but hoi little
daughter must be good, and God
will bless her."
"O, mama 1" criad the little one,
throwing her plump arms around the
neck of her mother ; "don't loavo
your little Her as papa did. O,
mama, I -can't give you up ; you
must not go."
"Would to God I could stay, not
for my Bake, but for yours, darling.
If I had some one to protect you, I
would be content to dio."
She took lier's dimpled banda
within hor own wasted ones and
caressed thom gently, then imprinted
a loving kiss upon the upturned face
of hor preoious daughter. This waa
a lovely, but sad, parting of mother
and child.
"Promise mama to be good, and
she will meet you bye-and-bye.
Here is somothing for my Her. Take
it and remember your mama and
papa, who loved you so devotedly."
She placed tho chain around lier's
neck, after bestowing a kiss upon it,
as the child knelt before her.
"Thank you, mama, dear ; I will
try to be good. But, oh ! how I will
miss youl"
And she again kissed thc palo face
of her dying mother. She did not
fully realizo what a treasure she was
losing, that she was giving tip her
dearest friend, loving parent and
only protector.
A smile illumed Millie's counte
nance when she observed how I lor
prized tho gift and loved the giver.
Aftor ono moro loving kiss and em
brace, and a scarcely audible "good
bye," Mrs. Stephens entered into
"that sleep from which nono ever
wakes to weep."
Hor was loft a lonely orphan, with
no one to support or bestow any love
and sympathy upon her, and to tho
mercies of a bustling world. A sense
of loneliness seized her, and sho bogan
to realizo hor true position in life.
She threw her arms around hor
mother and cried herself to sleep.
When sho awoke a crowd was in tho
room and ono largo man was lifting
her gently from tho form of her
mother. Mrs. Stephens was carried
away to bo buried, followed by lonely
little lier and her faithful pct, Fido.
Thus tho life of a lovely and famous
actress ended. She died in loneliness
and in want.

The Appalachian Reserve.
The bill for the establishment of a na
tional forest reserve in the'Southern Ap
fudnchians has been reported favorably
n Congress. Nothing should be per
mitted to prevent its becoming an act.
It authorizes the purchase of 4,000,000
aeres of land in the mountain region ex
tending from Southern Virginia ead
West Virginia to Northern Alabama aud
Georgia, touohing South Carolina and
Tennessee, and containing not only the
greatest variety of tirabor in the country,
but what is of equal importance, the
head springs of more than a dozen im
portant rivers emptying into tho Atlantic
ocean, tho Gulf Ol Mexico and the Mis
sissippi and Ohio rivers. The passage of
the bill 1B of prime importance to secure
conditions whereby the value of these
st reama for transportation and irrigation,
and as sources of industrial and commer
cial power, may be maintained, if not in
creased, and to give practical encourage
ment to the development of soientiilo
forestry, the necessity for which is be
coming every year moro recognized.
