Kill the Potato Bugs.

The season ofthe year is approach
ing when the attention of the hus-
bandman will be directed to his pota-
to crops and his ingenuity taxed to de-
wise some means by which he can ex-
terminate the potato bug, which each
year cuts short his crop. The des-
truction of the potato bug and the
means to be employed in their exter-
mination, has been one of serious
thought and careful experiment by
the best farmers of the land. Recent
discussions of this question has result
ted in the decision that Paris green
used as a solution is the best remedy
to be used in Kidding the potato fields
of this pest. The following is the
way to use the poison Take ta-
blesnoonful of Paris green and dis
solve it in one gallon of water and
sprinkle the plants with the solution
with a common watering pot. A gal.
lon of such solution will do for an
acre of ground. Paris green being a
deadly poison the bugs die as soon
as they eat the leaves upon which
it has fallen. Barnyard fowls will
not eat the dead bugs.

How to Kill Your Town.

Whenever any subject of pnblic
improvements are suggested, COM
mence by decrying it; say it is too
costly, or it is not needed. Never
make any improvements yourself -
dom re-hang your dilapidated gates !,
nor mend your broken fences, nor re-
pair your decaying sidewalks. When
you write to your friends, say a bad
word for everything and everybody
about the town; say taxes are too
high, and that your officers get too
much salary. Never buy anything
of your home merchants for fear they
may make a cent off you, but send
to the city and pay more for the same
article. Give no countenance to any
man or set of men who feel an inter-
est in the improvement of the town,
and tell your friends they are all
knaves and thieves. Don't take your
home paper, or send it to your ac-
quaince abroad, for fear it may say a
good word about the place and there
by induce an increase Of population.
These rules strictly followed out
are warranted to kill the best town
in America, and if you desire to test
it, Martinsburg offers good chance,
for the harder the job the greater the
success when accomplished.
Martinsburg independent. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1875-1900, 1875-05-08
The Bright Side.

Look ON the bright side it is the
right side. Times may be hard and
business dull, but it will make them
no easier or better to wear a gloomy
countenance or speak despondently TO
your neighbor. Remember that it is
the sunshine, not the clouds, that
makes the flowers. Trouble should
give sinew and tone to life, fortitude
and courage to a man. A rough sea
learns a sailor skill, and gives him
nerve and energy and it is hard times
aud close hewing for livelihood that
brings out what there is in a man and
makes him happier after the struggle
is over. Remember, then, when
things look a little dark, that the tide
win turn, and might end in broad
day.

THE TOWN COUNCIL.
10 the Editors Of Me Independent:

70 the Editors Of The Independent.
I have read and heard several pro-
posed tickets for the new Council and
/ desire to say my say, as a taxpayer
and lifelong citizen of Martinsburg.
/ would have the old town go back to
her old ways. What is the use of
spending money to make streets?--
What is the use of making the town
larger? Won't there only be more
mouths to feed? Why did these new
tangled progressionists tunnel the
town and break through the rock that
we always thought couldn't be done
and lay water pipes through thetown?
Why, sir, we never had any fires and
we always had plenty OF water in our
cisterns. 1t is time for these things
to stop. We are getting in debt; and
school-houses being added. Why be-
fore the war we hadn't such things.
We didn't have fifteen or sixteen
teachers to feed and clothe, by pay
ing them a monthly salary. Those
who had the money sent their child
rem away to school. 1t ought to be
done again. Now, sirs, these things
ought to be stopped. 1t is important
that they should cease, and If the IN
DEPENDENT won't join our crowd,
I'll write all my letters to Buzfuz, be-
cause he is always in favor of going
backwards. Let us put our shoulders
to the wheel and elect old reliable cit
izens--none of your wishy -washy So
called improvement men. | suggest
that the people decline to have any
thing to do with electing any man
who has identified himself with any
enterprise or improvement. Let us
have peace. OLD TAXPAYER.

Don't Advertise.

Advertising is a great bother. 1t
only brings a lot of folks to your bur
siness place. If they want you, let
'em hunt you up. Then, if you get
your name in the paper, you'll be
bored with drummers, and people
from the country will call ON you and
you'll have to show them goods, and
like enough have to do up bundles
for them, which will exhaust your
stock SO much that you'll be obliged
to buy more goods, which is great
trouble. If you advertise, too, it
gives your town reputation abroad,
and folks will go there and settle
down, and crowd your quiet place,
and make it too lively. If you don't
want to do anything, keep as still as
You can.

New and important Book.

The Personal, Political and Proper
ty Rights of Citizens of the U. S.
How to exercise and how to preserve
them: by Theophilus Parson, LII. ID.
National Publishing Co., Cincinnati,
Ohio.
The work is the most important
which has ever been issued from the
pen Of this distinguished Author
and because it is written for the
great mass Of American citizens, CIV
ing clear, plain and authoritive infor-
nation with regard to those rights
and duties upon which their success
and prosperity depend.
The work embraces a popular COM
mentary on the constitution of the
u. s., section by section, explaining
its principles, purposes, and the rights
and powers it confers, and also full
and complete compendium of the
laws and rules which pertain to the
management of property and transac-
lions of all kinds of business. The
book is a marvel of completeness, and
of its accuracy, the name of the au-
thor is the best possible guaranty
His language is simple throughout,
and the subjects treated are brought
within the easy comprehension of
those unlearned i'm the law.
We cannot too highly commend
this volume TO gour read
ers. II is a book that every intelli-
gent man win feel that he needs as
soon as he has examined it. The
amount Of laundering and litigation
that would be avoided by general
knowledge Of its contents cannot well
be overestimated. II should be in the
hands OF every man who has any de-
sire 70 understand his rights, or any
care to conduct his business safely,
and without expensive legal helps
Ii viii undoubtedly meet with very
large sale.
IA will besold only by subscription,
and any one desiring a profitable
agency should apply TO the publishers.
