A new method of resuscitating drowning people has been discovered by Mr. Sutton, the , harbor master of Washington. There has always been an unusually large number of deaths from drowning on the river front about Washington. There have been several narrow escapes here In the past week, and the ones who were fortunate enough to have lived owe their lives to a great extent, if not entirely to Mr. Sutton's new method. Mr. Sutton says that when other and older methods fall to revive the persona that his treatment will prove efficacious. He does not claim that it will restore life, but says that if a spark of vitality Is left in the body the patlant will revive under bin salt treatment. When old methods prove of no value Mr. Sutton unclothes tbe unfortunate person and literally buries him In salt, leaving only the a 'v. nostrils and mouth exposed. Tbe salt not .. only sets np an Irritation, but absorbs tbe water and moisture of tbe body so rapidly as to soon restore tbe heart to operation. Tbe patient may have to He several hours before 1 life Is noticeable. This treatment Is continued until breathing Is restored and consciousness Bets In. ; $20.00 IN SILVER. > i. Given Away By P. B.

Atlanta Journal. Tbe corn crop or tbe South is threatened with total loss by tbe destructive onslaught of tbe larger cotton stalk borer, a new enemy that has come to devastate the fields of grow lng grain. Many letters bave been received by State > Entomologist Scott from farmers in all 6elecHons of tbe State, and.be has received quite an Interesting collection of tbe worm and tbe stalks upon wblcb be finds bis existence. Tbe worm is hatched from the eggn of a moth that lays on tbe young stalk of corn. Tbe period of batching requires little more 1 tban a week, and tbe moment tbe new-born pest opens its eyes In tbe new world be be- J gins boring bis way Into the heart of tbe stalk, killing and poisoning the life of tbe Dlant. < " Slate Entomologist Scott, in an interesting ' interview this morning, tells tbe full story of tbe worm and tlie remedy tbat must be applied to save tbe crop from destruction, Entomologist Scott, In speaking of tbe worm wblcb Is so destructive, says: ( 'Tbe larger cornstalk borer Is a large wblte caterpillar, dotted witb dark brown spots, wblcb bores Into corn stalks preventing the growth of the ears sn young corn and weakening older stalks on tbat It Is readily blown down. It frequently occurs In such numbers In corn fields tbat one stalk of corn may be ( riddled with twenty or thirty holes. "This Insect Is quite well distributed over ' the southern States and frequently becomes ' very troublesome, causing a loss of 25 to 50 t per cent of tbe crop when It occurs in large . numbers. Aside from corn It also attacks . sugar Kane, sorghum, and gama grass or 1 semain grass. i "Tbe adult insect is a moth which deposits aurora nn vniinir corn soon after It comes un. . Tbe eggs soon batch and the young larvae bore Into tbe stalk from tbe ground to tbe third Joint and tunnel usually upward through tbe patb. Corn stalks affected become distorted and do not form ears There Is a second generation of tbls Insect wbiob bores into tbe well grown stalks and so weakens tbem tbat tbey are frequently blown over. Tbis second generation passes tbe winter in tbe old corn stalks ready to produce a spring brood to attack tbe next crop of corn. "Tbe remedy for tbis insect consists entliely of preventive measures. Since the caterpillars over-winter in ihe old corn stalks they can be almost entirely destroyed by burning these stalks in tbe fall or winter after tbe crop is gathered. '*Our method of pulling tbe fodder and leaving tbe stalkB on the ground, or even cutting tbe corn and leaving tbe butts, affords tbe very best conditions for this Insect to bold over tbe winter and continue to multiply year after year. Tbe stalks should be dragged off, collected and burned during tbe fall and winter." s "Again, corn sboald not follow corn on in- ~ r.inn/ia a oirotflm f\t pntotJon of rrnna * ICOICU tauuo. a dj dlviu wi v. .. v, should be adopted, bo tbat corn will not be planted on the same land two years In succession. The same is true of sugar cane and sorghum. Also swamps In which gama grass Is growing should be burned over every year to destroy the worm infesting tbls grass, lf these preventive measures are followed farmers need not suffer from attacks of the peat."
