For two or three weeks we had hop
ed to be able to make the announcement
land tell the truth) that the grasshop-
pers had all left US, but heretofore we
have been unable to do so. Last week
vast multitudes few awLy, and during
the FIRST of this week they have all dis
appeared, 50 far as we can learn, throug,
out the county. At least the exceptions
are 80 few that no further damage from
them can beexpected. Corn and garden
vegetables that have been replanted are
coming on again nicely, and if the sea-
son continues favorable will give al

Webb Bostwick informs us that
among his potatoes be has some that the
seed was shipped in from Iowa, and
among these there is a bug Matching out
that is death on potato vines. As none
of these bugs have made their appear
ance among the potatoes that are grown
from home seed, he is of the opinion that
their eggs were in the dirt among the
potatoes that came from Iowa. AS there
was carload of these potatoes sold here
at lola it would be we'll for persons who
planted of them to watch and kill these
bugs as they hatch out. If not killed
off by another year they may be numer'
GUS enough to destroy the potato crop
The bug is of a species never before seer
in this part of the country.

Time was called by the Umpire at 1925
p. M, Humboldt boys at the bat. On
account of several appeals from the de.
cisions of the Umpire the game was pro-
tracted till Gas. The game should have
been played in one-half the time. But
one double play was made during the
game-a fly ball taken and thrown to
first base by D. Collins, thereby putting
two out. On forced run with Davis at
the bat, splendid bat brought the three
base runners in and left the batter on
third base. Other good plays were made
upon both sides but lack Of room pre-
cludes general notice.
The second game of the series will be
played on the grounds Of the lola Club
next week-probably on Monday.

80 far Is we can learn the farmers
have, in nearly every instance where
their crops have been destroyed, replant-
ed the same. If any of them should
have ground they are not going to plant
in corn we would recommend to their
consideration an article on the fourth
page in reference to the culture of buck
wheat. This crop can be made almost
as profitable as wheat, and it does not
need to be sown before the last of next
month.

crops her front hair, and pulls it down
over her forehead like Mexican mus.

number of pale-faced young men that
throw away their ambition and pass
sleepless nights in trying to raise down
on their upper lips"

competent to testify in this case.
