PoTATo BuGs.-From all quarters we
hear the report that this insatiate pest is
preparing for a vigorous campaign this
season. The following, from one of our
subscribers, will give some idea of the
situations
MR.. EDIToR:-Seeing in your paper,
last week, the assertion of Mr.. Hunt, OF
Wisconsin, that the potato bugs were all
dead, and the prophecy that there would
be none, or next to none, this year, l
thought it best to put the people on their
guard against the cry of peace, peace,
when there is no peace, by giving them
bit of my experience.
Last week while Mr.. Thomas, of Pine
grove Garden, was preparing piece or
ground for planting, he discovered
great number of holes, q little larger than
pea, and thinking there might be an
eremy concealed, thrust in his hand and
pulled out-not plumb, but handful
of potato bugs. He had surely surprised
the enemy in camp. We rallied to his
assistance, and on a space OF ground four
feet square we dug out twenty eight hun
drcd potato bugs, all lively, and ready to
pounce upon the first potato that dared
to peep above the ground. Neither do |
think we had discovered the main enemy.
1t was only a small outpost, waiting for
marching orders. For the last few days
we have gathered them from the young
potatoes by the quart-two or three at Il
picking-and still they come.
p S. Mr.. Thomas tells me he has de-
stroyed their eggs by the million.
Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1871-05-26


The McGregor Necs says that MI
Donnan ''peremtorily and without cause"
demanded Mr.. Tompkins' removal from
the post office at that place, and that pa
per has severely attacked our representa-
tive tor securing the change. We are
informed however, by a McGregor gen
tleman, who, we are satisfied, knows
whereof lie ailirms, that a very large
number of the Republicans of McGregor
petitioned for the change, and that among
tie rest acho demanded 1t acas tie editor OF
tie Nens himself How is it that the
editor of the Neacs now makes such an
ado about the removal of Mr.. Tompkins
when it seems he was party to the very
act?-Dubuque Times.
We are able, on the best of authority,
to confirm the above The name of
Douglas Letlingwell, editor of the McGrc-
gor News, is certainly on the petition
asking for Tompkins' removal, and it
may as well be stated that a large
number of other Republicans were also
signcrs of it, much larger number
than Mr.. Tompkins was able to get
upon his remonstrance, and it should be
stated also that in letters received from
prominent and influential Republicans of
Clayton county it is stated that among
the people of that county, with few ex,
ceptions, there is no other feeling than
satisfaction regarding it.

REV. Mr.. HuNTER.-Since our issue of
last week, intelligence from Rockford
concerning the situation of Rev. W. L..
Hunter has caused grave applehensons
in the hearts of his friends here regard
ing the issue of his sickness. Since his
prostration he has been almost constant
ly unconscious, rallying only at long in
tervals and then but for moment. His
brother, II. r. Hunter, started for Rock
ford on Tuesday evening and returned
this morning. He reports his brother
slightly better yesterday, resting better,
etc, but that the favorable symptoms
could only be detected by physician.
His life yet hangs on a precarious thread
The intelligence of Mr.. Hunters sickness
has cast tinge of melancholy all over
the community. He is universally liked
by all classes Of people. Many fcrvcni
prayers will be offered up for his recovery
