In His Testimony
By CHARLES P- STEWART
Wahington, April 19. —Experienced
Vashingtonians do not expect any
hing startling to befall Maj. Gen.
/ohnson Hagood who recently told
he House of Representatives’ Mili
ary Affairs Committee that the War
Department is so opheavy it would
collapse at a declaration of hostilities
The general explained how the depart
nent could save $50,000,000 with an
actual increase in efficiency.
Nevertheless, there is considerable
reminiscing concerning the bad luck
hat army and navy officers general
y have had in the past after adverse
y criticizing their respective services.
Most of the members of the mili
tary affairs committee say they think
General Hagood made out an excel
'ent case. It is agreed that Secretary
Dern who undoubtedly desires to
economize, will find the general’s sug
gestions valuable. It is deemed likely
that many of them will be adopted.
But the betting inside the service, is
; hat the rest of General Hagood’s
career will be uphill ,in so far as pro
fessiona linfluences can make it so—
and they can make it decidedly so,

Journal Chairman
In Senate Misses
Initial Meeting
Daily DiMpntcb Korean,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
BY J. C. BASKERVILL.
Raleigh, April 19. —There was a
general perking up of ears at the
beginning of yesterday’s session of
the Senate when Senator Roy Francis
rose *o report that the previous ses
sion's journal had been carefully read
and found to be correct and to move
that its reading be dispensed with.
There was a general craning of
necks. The seat of Senator Patton, of
MriLcon, chairman of the committee on
the Senate Journal, was empty. This
explained the reason why Senator
Francis, twas • for the
dapper Macon senator who performs
his job as chairman of the Senate jour
nal committee to the satisfaction of
all.
It was the first session this year
that Senator Patton had not been on
ihand to report that thfe preceding
day’s journal had been carefully read
and found to be correct. To any one
else, Senator Patton’s job might be a
monotonous affair, day in and day
out, but he gets a great kick out
of it and each day he finds new way
of saying that the journal has been
read and found to be correfct.

Good Gardening
Insect Warfare
By DEAN HALLIDAY
Central Press Garden Expert
"AS A BUG eats, so shall he be
sprayed,” that is an old adage in the
e annal 3 of good gardening, and one |
that should be remembered. If our '
spraying for insects is to be success- !
ful, we must at least inquire into the
private life of tlie insect we would
destroy, to the extent of determining I
;the manner of feeding, since on that I
potot depends the kind of spray to
be used.
! The majority of insects feed either j
by piercing plant tissues with needle
like beaks and extracting the plant
sap, or by chewing and devouring the
entire plant structure. For the for

to eliminate the feature in the act
which allows delinquent taxpayers to
get a 10 percent discount by making
a cash settlement.
Senate bill 180, one of two adminis
tration measures designed to bring
relief to property owners/ was rati
fied nearly a month ago- However, it
was not acceptable to many boards of
county commissioners, and there was
launched immediately a movement to
modify the law, which applies to
every county in the State except four.
The act permits delinquents to pay
their back taxes less all penalties, for
the past five years in five equal an
nual installments. There was not so
much objection to this part of the
act, but it also provided that these de
linquent taxpayers could get a 10 per
cent discount by either settling in
full for their back taxes, or by pay
ing their annual installments even
one day before they fall due. This lat
ter provision is the one which the
Bland bill eliminates.
The bill is expected to come up in
the Senate within the next few days,
and since there has been so much op
position expressed to the discount
feature in the tax sales act, it is con
fidently expected that the Bland bill,
as approved by the finance committee,
will pass without much of a fight.
There have been several bills pass
ed of a local nature which modified
the sales tax sales act in certain coun
ties, but the effect of the Bland bill
is Statewide.
applied while plants are dormant;
and second, summer sprays applied
while the plants are in foliage. The
dormant sprays are in the main used
for the control of scale insects and
European red mite. Os the dormant
sprays now on the market, the mis
cible oils or oil emulsions afford a
wider field of usefulness than any
other type.
For summer applications for the
control of plant lice and leaf hoppers,
the material which is considered
standard is nicotine sulphate, used at
the rate of two teaspoons to a gallon
of soapy water.
Os thp st<)fnach poisons, arsenate
