POINTER FOR FARMERS.
Plan Adopted ia jackson County to De-
strOy Army Worms.

Black River Falls, Wis, July 21.-
Especial. 1.-The army worm has made it's
appearance near Cataract, Wis, and is
creating havoc among the crops of that
vicinity AS a means of protection from
the ravage of the destructive insect the
farmers have dug trenches around their
farms in which they place a long stick
of timber or log. AS the army of worms
move only in the afternoon team is
hitched to the log when they begin their
march and is kept moving rapidly around
the farm, thus crushing myriads of the
insects beneath the log. All who have
adopted the above plan have so far
saved their crops from destruction.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT BOWMAN
VILE.
Saw Mill, Planning Mill, Shingle Mill,
and over 100000 Feet of Lum-
ber Burned.

Fire broke out in the large saw mill of
the Bowman Lumber Co., at Bowman
vile, Green township, at an early hour
Monday morning last, and before it
could be subdued the mill, the planning
mill, shingle mill, between a million and
fifteen hundred thousand feet of lum-
Der, and two dwellings were consumed
by the flames. The planning mill was un-
der the same roof as the saw mill, but
the shingle mill was located a few feet
from the main structure. The lumber
consisted mostly of hemlOck, much of
which was probably dressed. The plant
was quite an extensive one, the machin-
cry being of modern construction and in
fine condition.
The loss to the company is a total one,
there being no insurance on the property,
and it is estimated to be between $4,000
$4,000. At this writing there are no par
ticulars at hand as to the cause of the
conflagration.

Death Of Mrs. F. p. Walker.

daughter of Nicholas and Jennie Weant,
died at her home at Nebraska, Pa, Fri
day, Sept. 1lth, 1896, shortly after one
o'clock p. NJ, of typhoid fever.
Mrs. Walker was taken sick about
three weeks ago, and from the start her
case seemed TO take a serious turn, yet
her physicians did not give up hope until
a sudden turn for the worse took place
on Thursday night. She bore her suffer-
ings meekly, never once complaining,
but always cheering her anxious hus-
band, parents and friends, when they ex-
pressed their great solicitude for her
recovery.
She was a woman of kindly disposi-
tion and most industrious habits, ever
taking great pride in her family and the
conduct Of her domestic affairs; a noble
wife and mother whose kindness of heart
endeared her to all who knew her. Her
sudden and unexpected taking away, in
the bloom of health and domestic happi-
ness, is most crushing blow TO the grief
stricken husband, whose cup of sorrow
is overlooking. Mr.. Walkers largo cir
clio of friends throughout the county will
sympsthize most deeply with him in this
dark bour of bereavement, the loss of a
true and affectionate wife.
Mrs. Walker was aged 26 years and 2
months, and besides the sorrowiug hus-
band leaves bright little boy aged about
years. The funeral was held on Satur-
day afternoon last the interment taking
place in Riverside cemetery, Tionesta,
and was attended by an immense con-
course of sympsthizing neighbors and
friends. Rev. Henry Rhodes officiated.

Four years ago, with some degree of
uncertainty as to its future, THE STAR
was launched on the sea Of journalism.
Some people received the infant with
open arms and have ever since fondlcd it
with their support and patronage.
There are others who have not manifest
ed warm feeling for The STAR from its
earliest cxistance, yet the editor has no
III feelings against even the enemies of
the paper, and would rather do any Of
them a favor than an injury Some
times In chronicling news we have
tramped ON tender toes unintentional-
ly. The aim and object Of THE STAR Is
now, and always has been. to give its
readers all the Legitimate news Of the
town and county, and ameliorato the
moral conditions of Reynoldsvillc. a
newspaper has as much influence In
Keeping the people within the limits Of
common decency as has the law, for
many people would rather face the law,
after having done some misdeineanor,
than have their names appear In the
newspaper in connection Herewith. So
long as this paper remains under the
present management IL will continue To
give all the news impartially, 80 far as
II IL possible To do 80. From the very
first THE STAR has been friend Of the
laboring man, and this method will be
continued. We are certainly grateful
to our friends for their support in the
past and hope to be able to merit the
same in the future, and earnestly solici,
at least share Of the patronage Of all
The subscription price Of THE STAR
has been reduced TO Sl.0O n year, cash
In advance, and we hope to increase our
subscription list at least one-third In
the new year the paper now enters. II
