SnuiU Boys Know Him the Best and U Him the U'at Ho Fastens lIlniNeir on Uw Shin With All Ills Klj:ht l.ejrs and Makes Things ln teresitlng for the Yomiiister. WASHINGTON, July 14 The an nual visit ' of the chiRser is on Throughout the Mississippi valley states, as far north as Illinois and Mis souri and extending across to the At lantic coast states, the chlpger is mak ing himself known wherever people picnic or work in the long grass, though some call him the harvest mite and others merely the red bug. Barefoot boys know him best and love him least. The chlKger's habit is to affix him self with his eight legs to the boys" bare shin or to worm himself, in some mysterious manner through a plcknicker's silken hosiery enter the pores of the skin and stay there. In a few hours the spot becomes very painful and causes Intense itching The large inflamed spots are often diagnosed us hives, nettle rash, urti caria, or wheals, and closely resepibles the bite of mosquitoes. On the second or third day a minute water blister usually develops. If a bath in hot water or water containing soap or salt is taken within a few hours, no ill ef fects are likely. A person walking through vegeta tion Is attacked mostly from the knees down, and an agricultural department bulletin suggests sifting flower of sul phur in the underclothing from the knees downward and into the shoes and stockings. " Xapthalene is also successfully used in the same manner and is a safeguard against several other forms of man-infesting tropical insects. Where a large area is to be rid of the mites, it is recommended by the bulletin that the grass be cut closely, weeds eliminated and useless herbi age mowed as closely as feasible, so as to expose the mites to the sun. It may be practical to spray the grass after cutting with flowers of sulphur or a dilute spray of kerosene emulsi on in which sulphur has been mixed. Bermuda grass, called the Dr. Jek yll and Mr. Hyde of the grass family, is coming in for considerable discus sion among agriculturists. Wire grass as it is commonly named, may be a valuable forage plant or a serious weed pest, as circumstances determ ine. By sending out shoots at fre quent intervals, Bermuda grass forms a close sod, which has its good points where forage grass is wanted. It Is the most valuable pasture grass in the south, but when it gets a start in a cotton field or other cultivated fields it is difficult of control. In Arizona and southern California it has proved such an enemy of the alfalfa crop that they have named it devil grass. As a forage plant, its valuable pro perties are resistance to heat, dought and trampling by live stock, though it Is quite susceptible to frost. Thus It is chiefly of value in states no farther north than Virginia and Kentucky. Cut early, Bermuda grass makes good hay and two crops ordinarily can be cut each (rear. A rich, moist soil will yield several tons an acre. Pasture and meadows should be plowed every few years, otherwise becoming sod bound.

The eounollmanlc committee does not believe It necessary to Insure tho relic. They refused an offer made to them a few days before starting by Robert Morris, of 434 Walnut street, representing Chubb & Sons, under writers, of New York. Mr. Morris was willing to underwrite the bell for $50,000, insuring It against the dan ger of fire, derailment, theft or van dalism. He pointed out that valuable manuscripts, works of art, rare copies of books und paintings are Insured, even though their Intrinsic value Is rule and their sentimental and artis tic value greut. Charles B. Hall, secretary of the siecial committee in charge of the Liberty Bell's trip, said the hell never was insured before on any of its trips and he did not (hink It necessary to. do so now. "No amount of Insurance could cover the loss of the bell," Mr. Hall yesterday said. "Intrinsically It Is orth little ,but from a patriotic and sentimental sense it Is priceless. No insurance can cover the value Amer ica places on the bell." Mr. Hall, moreover, said every pre caution is being taken to take care of the relic. The councilmanic commit tee, moreover, believes that no acci dent is likely to haprten, because they have with them on the trip the traf fic managers of the various railroads and the train bearing it will have a clear track. Although the bell Is not being in sured, the councllmen on the trip have taken out accident insurance on themselves. It was said 11 out of 16 took out accident policies. feee i if mm GBMBCOiiUni 1AHI11Y PERM IT SETS ASIBE 85.000 I 'EET FOR rONSTRl lTlON OF ROAD.
