Though this bait is eaten best

cases of poisoning occurred last year
where the bait was applied in this
manner. To insure success with
these methods of fighting grasshop-

persistently. No dead hoppers are
likely to be seen for three or four
days after making the application.

After writing a prescription for a
patient, the physician told him that
the druggist would probably charge
him fiO cents for filling It. Then the
patient asked the doctor to lend him
the money. Thereupon the physi-
cian carefully scratched out part of
the prescription and handed It back
with 10 cents, remarking:
"You can have that filled for a
dime. What I scratched out was
for your nerve. It Is evident that
you don't need anything for it."
