ABOUT PREMIUMS.

After going over the matter very
carefully, and looking at it from all
sides, l have come to the conclusion
that the offering of premiums to
club-raisers does not amount to so
very much. Many Of my best work
ars send in clubs week after week
and never mention anything about
| wanting a premium, while others
take the trouble to state in their let
lcrs that | need not send them any
premium, as it is no trouble to get
subscribers to The FOOl-Killer, and
they are willing to do it without any
reward except the pleasure of read
ing the paper and helping to extend
it's circulation.
| That is very nice of them, indeed,
and | certainly appreciate it. When
buy a workers interest with a
premium [ am not so sure of him IS
am when | know he is spreading
| the ''Fool-Killer" gospel because he
enjoys it and without wanting any
other reward.
The best work in the world is that
which is done purely as a labor of
more JOY in the doing of the thing
than in the pay he expects to get for
It. | have discovered that many of
my workers are Of this class. They
re big-hearted and liberal-minded,
and are not disposed to "split hairs"
nd Wrangle over small matter.
They realize that The Fool-Killer is
a good thing, and it is a pleasure for
them to help push it along. The
mere money value Of such a prem
ium as l can offer does not appeal to
them very strongly. They know I
an giving a dollars worth of pure
gospel for fifteen cents, anyway, and
they think that is enough.
In view of all this, and because the
premium business is an added trou-
ole and expense to me, l have de-
cided to cut it out. Hereafter The
FoolKiller will be sold strictly on
it's merits, without any premium or
other outside inducement. am
starting out this month on the no
, premium basis, and | trust that each
and every one Of my friends and CO.
workers who have been standing by
me so nobly in the past will continue
to give me their support and help me
to push the paper on to a great sue
cess. l believe | have with me as
2 loyal band of friends and workers
= : any paper has ever gathered in so
t short a time; and to this band l want
3 to add others until it is a great army
! III working toward one common pur-
g ?ose-the building up of the most
3 fearless and fat-footed journal Of
E ommon hoss-sense that was ever
| printed since God made the world.
! Boys, let me hear how the new
plan suits you. This step will give
= The Fool-Killer a higher standing in
the eyes of the Post Office Depart
| ment, as Uncle Sam is inclined to
L look with some degree of disfavor
@ upon papers that get their circula-
f ton by offering premiums. 1t will
: make the circulation more substan-
r tial and of higher order, and l be-
Il lieve it will grow just as fast without
the premiums as with them. | am
banking on the loyalty Of my friends.
Now altogether for great success

the bull leaders. Patten was cred
tied with adding to his already big
line which shows goodly paper

Opinions among the leaders in
the market at the close OF the week
seemed to be well divided between
the buying and the selling side.
Two days recovery In prices and
extensive covering of short lines left
the pit much in doubt as to what to
expect next. Weather conditions are
fine over the winter wheat belt, al
though there was hint of more
frost to come. which might catch
some of the wheat the most ad-
vanced.
A very large volume of business
was done on Friday. The market
was unusually nervous and subject
to frequent and sudden price
changes. The news of the day was
the vigorous and decisive buying for
influential people that finally made
the bulllsh news most effective. The
bearish news current only sufficed
to lose money for the traders who
we're acting upon II. Leading longs
and their connections in the south

Insects Damage Crops.
The adverse crop reports which
received the most attention from
the trade were from Arkansas City,
Kas., and from Missouri points. The
Kansas report said that cinch bags
were doing a great deal of damage
to wheat in that vicinity. Winfield, :
Kas.. millers reported that wheat
had gone back in that section dur
ing the last week. The acreage for
thirty miles around Arkansas City
is small and the crop will not
amount to much.
The Missouri reports were nni-
versally bad. In the central section
Glasgow reported 80 per cent aban-
donment and the balance condition
40 per cent on account of badly
spotted fields. Wakenda reported
three-fourths of the acreage sown
as plowed up. the remainder weakly
and sickly. Chilicothe reported one
third of the acreage plowed upl
with the balance weedy and notl
over half a crop possible. Hannibal
estimated the eastern section at 1alf
crop.
The export demand for wheat
continues to be entirely lacking and
Just at present all avenues of trade

Disposition of Wheat.
Probably the most far-reachlng !
of any of the weak features of the
present world situation in wheat is
the action taken by the leading ,
wheat importing countries of Eu-'
rope. These have been actuated by
the high prevailing prices of wheat
to seed an unusually large acreage.
Therefore the worlds exporting

HISTORICAL PONDS CHURCH
CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY.
Old Edifice Near Paterson Was
Scene of Stirring Events,

PATTERSON, June 23.-The Ponds Re-
formed Church. a church with a his
tory, is celebrating its 20oth anniyer-
sary this week. The church is situated
sin the fields at a crossroads nine
miles from Paterson.
The church was founded in 1910 by
the first Dutch settlers, who had begun
to come into the country around the
Ponds, as the region is called.
The first church building was of logs
and 1t was used until 1740. Then a
h%exagonal church with a pointed roof
was built, with rush bOttomed chairs
for seats. A number of these chairs are
cherished possessions of parlshioners to-
day. In revolutionary times the build
ing was a patriot headquarters, and
George Washington once had quarters
in the Ramapo Valley nearby.
In 1929 the hexagonaI church was re-
modelled into the present structure. AS
it stands now, with its white cement
'front.', it's wall of mixed brick and stone,
and its white wooden superstructure. 1t
is a quaint relic. According to builders
and architects. the workmanship Is so
good that the building will stand for at
least two hundred years more.

Circular Instructs Housewives
How to Destroy Pests and

The local Board of Health Is about

end in view has under consideration a
circular warning housewives of the
danger of disease being spread through
flies.
The circular states that flies may in

fever, scarlet fever, diphtheria and
other infectious diseases. They go with
their germs direct to your food, to
your drink. to the lips OF your sleep
ing child, or perhaps to a small open
wound on your hand or face. When
germs are deposited in milk they null
tiply very fast, therefore milk should
never be exposed to flies"
Under the caption What to Do to
Get Rid of Flies the circular says:
Screen your windows and doors. Do
1t early before fly time and keep
screens up until snow flies. Screen all
food. especially milk, Do not eat food
that has been in contact with flies.
Screen the baby's bed and keep flies

flies away from the sick, especially
those i'll with typhoid fever. scarlet
fever, diphtheria and tuberculosis.
Screen the patients bed. XIII every
fly that enters the sick room. Catch
the flies as fast is they appear. Use
liquid poison, sticky fly papers and
traps. Place either of these fly poisons
in shallow dishes throughout the house.
To quickly clear rooms of flies burn

blackf1ag into the air with a powder
blower. This causes flies to fall to the
floor In stunned condition. They must
then be gathered up and destroyed"

petition will be presented asking that

The following petition was formulated
and signed by those present:
"To the Honorable Board of Street

the said plans of the railroad company
are adopted.
One of the best arguments put forth
for the opening of the street was made
by Former Freebooter Frank Foley,
who said:

congestion. I am heartily In favor of
the opening of East Mechanic street as
a means for traffic to Broad street not

Alderman John H. Donnelly, of the
Fifth ward, said:
This is an opportunity to get to work
and see If the Board of Works will give
to the people below the railroad what
they rant. We did not intend to taxi
this course unless We were compelled to
do so, still 1 see no other means at the

money which is being held for him in

will a snug sum was left in trust for
the son. This money vas what brought
