WATERFOWL WINS.
Brings Home $50. Purse After An
Interesting game at Jefferson.

Interesting game at Jefferson.
Our boys went down to Jefferson
Sunday where they met the Font At
kinsou ball team on the diamond at
the Fair Grounds for a purse of $50,
and "Oh Mercy" what a moruful day,
our boys gave them the most crushing
defeat they ever received, not even
giving them look in for the game and
when the final inning was ended,
Molly's tune was, to in favor of the
boys who hail from Watertown.
LOCALS LOOKED DANGEROUS IN FIRST
INNING.
Right in the first inning the Wa
tertown boys began to look dangerous,
Hahn, the first man up for Watertown,
caught the first ball Jones pitched
square on the nose for drive to right
field; he stole second and third but was
left on third, the next three men going
out in order The Fort managed to get
man on first in the first inning, but
he did not dare to 60 any further, and
from then on until the fifth it was one
two-three order on both sides the score
being to O..
FUN BEGAN IN THE FIFTH INNING.
In the fifth inning the fun began.
Successive hits by Schultz, Steinberg,
Schlueter and Miller, sacrifice by
Hahn and dead ball to Nienow sent
four men across the plate and when
the inning was over the score had a
different tune; it was to 0 in favor Of
the Watertown boys, The locals added
two more runs to their credit in the
sixth on hit by Packard, two errors
and two stolen bases, after that scoring
for the game was ended. The Fort did
not at any stage of the game look dang
erous, as not one of the Fort boys saw
third base and only three saw second.
Schlueter for Watertown pitched in
fine form and his catcher, Schultz, and
the boys back of him, backed him up
in grand style, gobbling up everything
tnat came their way, and the throwing
was almost perfect.
Chas. Buchta Of jefferson did the
umpiring and our boys say he is one of
the best they ever played under. His
decisions were tair in every way, and
the treatment received at the hands of
the Jefferson fans was fine, the boys
would like to go there again. The boys
also speak highly OF the Fort boys,
saying they are fine lot of fellows.
This was the first game played at
Jefferson this season and the large
crowd that turned out certainly saw a
fine article of ball.
Following is the score by innings
and each mans individual playing.

Of Interest to Farmers.
WHITE GRUBS.

The insects popularity known as
"white grubs'' are very numerous this
year and are damaging pastured, hay
fields and lawns. These grubs are the
larvae of one or two species of May
beetles (June bugs), which fly about
dwellings during the warm evenings
of May.
LIFE HISTORY.
The beetles appear during the early
part of May and soon after the fe-
males deposit their eggs among the
roots OF grasses and other succulent
plants. These eggs soon hatch and
the young grubs begin to feed on the
roots. During the latter part OF sum-
mer the grubs reach maturity and con.
struct rude chambers or cocoons In
which they transform into perfect
beetles. The bee ties do not leave the
ground until the following spring,
when the same round of life is repeat
ed.
APPEARANCE OF THE GRUBs.
Ii the grubs are present In sufficient
number, the root system of the plants
is completely devoured and the plants
die. The eating capacity of these
grubs is enormous. A single grub
will devour more than it's own weight
OF food in day. The presence OF the
grubs, which is not noticeable until
considerable damage has been done. is
indicated by the gradual withering
and drying up of the sod. The top
layer of the sod. to the depth of about
two inches, is separated from the rest
OF the roots 80 that it may be rolled
uD like a blanket.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1903-07-29
REMEDIES.

Since the grubs feed underground,
the application OF paris green and
other arsenious poiso sons Is not practi-
cable. Infested pastures and meadows
should be fall-plowed, rather shallow,
and narrowed few times before the
winter sets in so as to expose the In
sects to the winter weather. It is not
advisable to plant badly infested land
to corn, especially If it has been
Flowed in the spring. Clean culture
is the most effective way of fighting
the insect.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1903-07-29
TREATMENT OF LAWNS.

Infested lawns may be treated as
follows: Dissolve five pounds of COM
mon brown laundry soap in barrel of
water and apply the solution to the In
tested lawn, thoroughly saturating it.
Then water thoroughly to carry the
solution further down. The remedy
will not kill the grubs If they have al
ready constr ucted their chambers.
Where the grass is killed before the
pest is discovered, do not disturb the
surface, first kill the grubs, then
sow lawn grass seed, rake the sod
lightly and water when the top be-
comes dry. In the fall apply 3 liberal
dressing of barn-yard manure. The
grass seed may be sown any time pro-
vided the soil is kept moist.

Sheppard has twenty-six buck shot wounds in his back and would prob- ably have been killed except that as Deputy Townsend fired the negro turned slightly and the bullets ranged through the fieshy part of his back. Sheppard is suspected of having been the burglar who entered the homes of Col. w. R.

 The site of the city buildings-to-be is still a scene of likeness, and 1t seems to be beyond the power of anyone in Selma to say when work will be resumed. It has been several weeks now since any thing has been done on the buildings, which stand in state of partial cree tion.
 MT. Thompson. who had charge of cer- tain concrete work on the building. has received from Jim Hayes, who was repre- sentative of R. P. Manley, the contrac- tor, letter saying Hayes wife was sick at Knoxville It Is thought this may be a cause for a cessation of work. In the meantime the city bonds with which Contractor Manley Is to be paid have not been received and this, too, may be a cause of delay.
