Hunter has given to tho press a suggestion of tho bestmcthods to com bat tho Hessian lly, which hus mado Its appearanco in many ofthe wheat Holds of tho Stute und threatens to do much damage The llrst recommendation is that tho wheat bo pastured closo with cattle or sheop. Prof. Hunter says that by thus closo cropping the wheat, a wholesalo destruction ofeggs, larvao and "llnxsceds" will result, tho effect of which cannot help being felt In tho spring. Thero aro also proventlvo measures. Unless thoy huvo sustained nn excep tionally severe attack, strong plunts in a fertile soil will send out to tako tho placo of tho stalks sapped by tho grubs, now and Vigorous shoots, so thut by harvest tlmo tho attack of tho Dy will hardly bo noticed. Hence it is evident that a generous application of fertilizer, put on tho soil in tho spring, will henellt tho plants. Moreovor those vurietios of wheat with hard and lllnty steins and those that tiller some what from tho root aro less subject to damage under attacks of tho Hies. Rotation of crops is another good proventlvo measure, provided thut barloy and rye two other plants that aro attacked by the Hessian lly aro not used In tho rotation. Tho shiftless practice of drilling in wheat among "volunteer wheat," which is practiced to soino extent in tho State, Is a thing most favorablo to tho increaso of the tly. In those cuses tho volunteer wheat furnishes a food for tho lly at tho tlmo when tho farmer can best starvo it out. Clean and thorough modes of tilling the soil go a long way townrd helping the farmer to got rid of tho Insect pest. Nothing, howover, can be accomp lished without tho co-operation of overy wheat grower in tho distressed community. If ono farmer burns his btubblo or plows It under, directly after tho harvest, and his neighbor falls to do so, i thero may come from tho undisturbed stubblo of tho neigh bor onough of the Insects to render al most fruitless the work of plowing un der. If tho majority of farmers sow lato enough to thwart tho Hessian lly, ono man, by sowing early, may har bor and furnish winter quarters for enough Insects to overrun all tho other Holds in the spring, undoing thoroby tho work of all tho othors. To light tho Hessian lly, wheat growers must get together and stay together. Ilu in Style. Don't laugh at fashion. Don't discourago ambition. Don't hinder progress. Try to bo alVable.

They Seem to hiivc tin idea that Would Bush to the New Bes ervations in Numbers That Democratic Ascendancy in Oklahoma Might be Endangered Washington, Fob. 2. Tho presen condition of matters relating to tho proposed opening of tho Kiowa and Comancho reservations is causing considerable anxiety among tho friends of tho proposed legislation nnd thoso who aro waiting anxiously tho adjustment of the details relating to tho adjustment of tho lands. It is now an open secret that Stephens, of Texas, and his friends and Arkansas men in congress aro determined to throw overy obstuolo in tho way of tho desired legislation. Thoir an moslty Is Inspired by u belief that tho Kiowa reservation will ho settled by a majority of peoplo from Kunsas and Oklahoma, who uro Republicans, and thoy want all burs thrown down in order to shut out us many people from Oklahoma as possible and havo their places taken by Texas Democruts. This is why Stephens objected to tho cluuso In tho bill to authorizo persons who havo lived 'on thoir homosteads In Oklahoma for tho space of Ave or soven yours to tako up now home steads In tho reservations; but the Stephens men go still further and in sist that tho bill prescribing how the land shall bo disposed of and who shall bo eligible to tako them and other details covered in tho Flynn bill shall bo dofeatcd so as to creato a condition of lawlessness and enablo the'mun with un arsenal to obtain tho cholcost town lots as well as tho best quarter sections. Thoy hope that tho conditions which provallcd In 1889, when Oklahoma was thrown wldo open to settlement, will be ro-enacted In the oponlng of tho Kiowa reservation, and thoy intend, if possiblo, to defeat any legislation that will tend to introduco order and prescribe how tho town lots shall be disposed of. With this op position It will bo dtlllcult to'pass any bill by unanimous consent, and It Is yot a matter of doubt what stops will bs, proper to sccuro tho necessary legislation. Mrs. 0. li.
