The Potatoe Bug,

Like the locusts of Egypt, the Colo
RADIO potatoe beetle has come in this
region of country and is eating up
every green thing in the way of to-
mato plants and potatoe vines. The
only effectual remedy heretofore has
been to catch and smash, but this year
the enemy is rather too numerous for
that. In the way of killing the "var-
ments," we have found it most exp e.
ditious to take a cup of coal oil, and,
with a straw or stick, put a drop on
their backs. 1t is a shure shot, and
bags the game very rapidly. We pre-
sumo coal tar would answer as well
and perhaps better. Possibly a solu
ton in water could be made strong
enough to drive off the bugs, and still
be weak enough not to iniure the
plants, and be put on with a sprink-
Ter. Whoever finds a remedy for the
pest will deserve we'll of his country.
Michael & Son say the Killerine will
do. 1t will do no harm to give it a
trial.

The following address was delivered by Rev. c.
on the occasion, which we publish
by request:
with the pleasant, but to ms rather difficult task
of extending to you our congratulations on this
festive occasion. You have reached an eminence,
in matrimonial life, to which 1t is the privilege of
but few to attain. Fifty years of your welded life
are now in the history of the past. The mercy of
God has been great toward you in sparing your
lives and in enabling you, amid many blessings to
pass through these years side by side. That mercy
enables you to-day to say, what perchance not one
In q thousand of those can say. who have entered
the state of matrimony. Your children unite with
you, as also do we your neighbours aud your friends
in blessing the name of the Lord for the care and
mercy which he has exercised over you during
these years.
You as a husband and father have realized all
that the sweet singer in Israel said, when he spoke
and sung as follows: THY wife shall be as a fruit
full vine by the side of thy house; thy children like
olive-p1ants round about thy table" Psalm 12sx3.
Your wife is still at your side, and your children
are still around you, with the exception oftwo who
have been removed from your midst by the angel of
death, Children are a heritage of the Lord, and
"children's children are the crown Of old men; and

from the citizens stand point, he had a due sense

-unnunishad Criminals.

The reason there are so MANI
s'grand and petty" crimes committed
with IMMUNITY, and the criminals 60
unpublished, is because there is no di-
rect statute to compensate for the
pursuit and arrest of a violator of
criminal law without a warrant,
which cannot be obtained because the
offender is often unknown. The only
way to remedy this great wrong to
an outraged community, is for our
County Commissioners Ia authorize
the Sheriff, in their absence. to offer a
compensatory reward for the pursuit,
as well as the arrest and conviction,
for high crimes especially, discrimi-
mating in cases where conviction is
the result. This done, crime would
diminish and the community be more
secnre in property and life. We hope
our County Commissioners win give
this subject of prime necessity their
serious consideration. They, as the
representatives ofthe people, should
not expect any one to sacrifice his
time and money for the public good,
without compensation.

In view of the certain prevalence

and gardeners to raise a plentiful crop
of sweet potatoes. Potato bugs will
not touch sweet potatoes. Sweet po-

will bring good prices.
