Os All Mid-Summer Pests Poison Ivy Seems Worst By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D. CAPTAIN JOHN SMITH probably was walking through the woods with Pocahontas, favoring her with those charms of manner, of conversation and personality which later saved his life, when he said, "Oh! look at the preity Ivy". And before she could stop him ho reached down and picket! a leaf. He prob ably wondered at the silvery laughter of the sttn pI e Indian girl, but he soon found out the rea son because lie wrote about it thus: "The poisonous Be. Clendenlng weed being in shape but little differ ent from our English yvie: but being touched causcth redness, itching*, and lastly blisters, the which how ever after a while they pass away of themselves without further harme; yet because for the time they are somewhat painefull and in aspect dangerous, it hath gotten itsclfe an ill name, although Questionless# of hoe very ill nature." Such is the first account we have of that pest of the American summer woods. There are several plants of the rhus family which cause poisoning. Poison Ivy can b# readily distin guished by the characteristic three leaved branch. The leaves are dark green on the upper surface and vel vety underneath. It may grow In the form of a vine or In that of a sort of bush. Poison sumac latlmvs is In the Morrow Successor Usually Sides With Administration Except On Dry Law Problem By CHARLES P. STEWART Central Prow Staff W T liter Washington, June 1. Senator W. Warren Barbour of New Jersey, who occupies the late Senator Dwight W. Morrow's former seat in the upper house of congress, links America'? economic and wet-arvd-Idry . more intimately th%p perhaps any other Lawmaker on Capitol Hill . Senator Barbour Is the solop who recently introduced a bill tp iperbase the Reconstruction Finance corpora tion's resources by $1,500,000,000. to enable it to finance or underwrite states, counties and cities, and pri vate individuals, firm* and companies also, in carrying out construction pro jects of a self-liquidating character -that is, of a sort to yield returns and pay for themselves, when com pleted. This, of course, will toe recognized a* the plan suggested by President Hoover, who is on recofd as object ing to a bond issue to meet the ex penses of a public improvement pro gram for the relief of unemployment. The New Jersey senator agrees with Mr. Hoover, arguing that a bond Issue will have to be met sooner or j later, which, as he says, “will only postpone the evil day of reckoning/' ] The Jersey legislator, indeed, con curs with the White House in vir tually alt of its economic idea©. He is for the immediate balancing of the budget, in part by rigorous re trenchment, and by increased taxa tion to cancel whatever remains of the deficit after the uttermost pos sible economy has been effected. He is for th# manufacturers' sales tax, on the ground that it will bring In much more, is fairer and does not differ in principle from a compara tively small number of spactal excise levies, “which probably," he reason*, "will have to be so heavy' as to crip p)« the Industrie# they are applied to, and may. besides, prove inadequate ” Likewise .though a protectionist, the senator deprecates the imposition of tariffs under the guise of revenue raising, and voted against the copper coal, oil and lumber imposts tacked lonto the tax measure by sectional interests. Thus far Senator Barbour is in hearty accord with the Hoover ministration. But, unlssa tha Whftt HENDERSOIt, Os.

The branches have from seven to thirteen leaflets on them, with a single one on the end. The berries, like the ber. ries of th# poison ivy, are cream col ored. The active principle of all rhue poisoning is virtually the same. In physical appearance It resembles a fixed otl. and it has a resinous qua!- ity. It Is very adhesive, almost im, possible to remove from the skin ot clothing with soap and water. On account of ft# adhesive qnalitles It is easily conveyed from one part of th# body to another. A scientist who always has bee# sensitive to the poison says that If the surface which has come into cob tact with the plant Is thoroughly washed with alcohol, kerosene, ether or gasoline, the effect of the poison will be confined to its original loca tion. If the surface Is thus washed within 10'or 1.1 minutes the effect of the poison will hq confined to 11# original location. A botanist who was for years tor mented with poison ivy whenever he engaged in held work, recommends a solution or ferrous sulphate in water, an* strength up to saturation. It used freely on the hands or face Im mediately after going inio a region known or suspected of having poison Ivy, St will prevent or stop the erup tion. In treatment after the eruption has aetualty appeared, there aro many remedies, most ot them of tittle value.

The most recent remedy to be recommended is benzoyl peroxide • House tenant is far wetter than he generally is credited with being, there is conflict between them on the sub ject of prohibition.

"The census bureau reports that di vorces in which intoxication was given as the sole cause, increased 133 per cent between 1922 and 1929. as against an 11 per cent population in crease. "A large life insurance company re ports that deaths from alcoholism among its policy holders Increased from 1.4 to 3.4 per cent per 100,000 between 1919 and 1929."
