Witness: From the way Ian
coster turned out at the Potosi con-
vention Monday one might have been

Oct. 5, and everything indicates an
unusually large advance sale.
Our exchanges say that the army
worm changed into beetle and went
down into the ground from which it
win emerge next spring into moth
which viii lay hundreds of thousands
of eggs. These will develope into new
army worms about the time crops

the pest is TO clear up the old ground
and burn the rubbish.

We have it on the word of the
young man himself that there is no
truth in the story of a needle enter
ing the waist of a Cassyille young
lady last spring and working out of
a Potosi boys arm week before last
He admits that the young lady has
her fine points and that his arm was
nearly .'out of place because ofthem
