THE FIGHT

At the gong Papke bounded
from his corner and was upon
Kelly before the latter had fairly
risen from his chair. They imme-
diately fought into clinck, Kelly
missing wicked left swing as
they broke. Papke tore back after
his man and landed a hard left
swing over the right eye and a
solid choppy right to the chin.
Kelly's knees sagged and he went
to the canvas for the count of
eight. Feebly rising, the Italian
middle-weight backed away from
the Thunderbolt, but Papke scent
ing victory, was after him like a
tiger. At close quarters he drove
a right to the chin that did not
travel six inches. Hugo fell like a
log. He lay at full length on the
canvas with arms outstretched
while referee Eddie Smith tolled
off the fatal 10. At the count of
eight he made a gritty effort to re-
gain his feet, but sank back again,

In 1907 the legislature of the state
passed law regulating the fees and
compensation of Nye county officials
(chapter II, page 20, Stat. 1000 !,
which reads:
The district attorney shall re-
0eive the sum of $500 per annum,
and the said district attorney shall
draw no money from the county
treasury for any vagrancy or other
conviction had within the county.
THE district attorney shall be al

The district attorney may appoint
such deputy or deputies as in his
Judgment are necessary, but no
money shall be drawn from the coun-
ty treasury as salary or recompense
for the services rendered by such

he Colorado Potato
Beetle in Idaho ~ ~

The following bulletin issued by the
Agricultural College Experiment
Station is well worth preserving;
Region at Present Affected
Colorado Potato Beetle, or common
Potato Bug Of the Mississippi Valley,
was introduced on Nez Perez Prairie
as much as four years ago. Until
1908 it spread but little; then, how
ever, it extended its territory several
miles in all directions, and this sum
mer it spread even more, so that at
the present time it covers an area
reaching from Lapwai to Grangeville,
and from kamiah to Vollmer. A
few scattered cases of infestation are
found north of the Clearwater, but in
most of them there is reason to hope
that the insect has been exterminated.
The certainty Of further spread next
season makes the situation interesting
and important at the present time.
The lnseet.-Mature potato bugs
are plump, yellow beetles with black
stripes on the shell, the head and un-
der parts of a reddish-orange color.
The young stages are reddish grubs
with black marks along the sides.
The eggs are orange in color, and are
found on the under side OF leaves of
potato vines, but the adults may oc-
casionally be found in other places.
Habits.-Only adult beetles winter
over; they burrow deep in the ground
in the fall and come up in the spring
about the time young potato vines are
coming through the soil. This varies
with the altitude in different regions
Of the Inland Empire from April to
June Eggs are laid to the number
Of about forty, usually in several clust-
ers, after a rest of a couple of days
this is repeated, and SO on for about
twelve times, making the total num-
Der of eggs about $50 from a single
female, and the time required to de
post them all about thirty days. The

ed to retard the spread a great deal,

ed to retard the spread a great deal,
especially when potato growers are
fully informed on the subject, as they
will be next spring. The main effort
Of the Experiment Station will be to
see that this information reaches the
people who need it. The time for the
potato growers to bestir themselves is
in next May and June.
How to Handle the Beetle When
Once Introduced.-Where not num-
erous the beetles should BY all means
be collected by hand with view to
getting them all; where they are too
abundant for this the vines should be
sprinkled with Paris green, two tea
spoonfuls in a bucket Of water. An
ordinary garden sprinkling pot will dc
satisfactory work, but a regular spray.
ing machine, if at hand, will economic
the material so that half the proper.
ton Of poison will be sufficient. On
account Of the cool summers in most
of the infested territory, the beetles
mature slowly here, and this make,
the second brood, if present, come toe
late to do much harm; mainly on this
account, the beetles have not beer
very hard to keep under control in
our territory, although if neglected
they will completely strip potato
patch in short time.
The Experiment Station will fur
nish further information or advice OF
request.
These press bulletins, as well as al
other publications Of the Experiment
Station, are for free distribution to al
residents of the state and requests foi
additional copies for distribution vii
be gladly supplied.
