cerned, but over each hill there was
stretched canopy Of white muslin
about the size of a mans pocket hand
kerchief. Two arched wires were used,
crossed over the melon hill somewhat
like the center wicket in a croquet
ground. The ends of these wires were
sewed TO The corners of the muslin
squares and the wires then thrust firm
ly into the ground so as to secure the
canopies and prevent the wind blowing
them away These protectors cost
complete about s cents each.

Where Dodder Has Been Seeded.
Where dodder has been seeded with
clover or alfalfa its presence will be
indicated by the appearance of more
or less rounded. spreading areas in
which the plants arc dying down. and
If examined at close range the thread
like twininS stems OF the dodder will
be found covering them. These areas
can be readily seen even at some dis
tance. as they present yellowish or
light orange coiored appearance. When
discovered the plants within this area
and for couple OF feet beyond should
be cut. allowed to dry and burned. or
straw may be spread on these spots
and burned to destroy the dodder and
prevent it's forming seeds.

+. TO CLOSE BIG DEAL
Making Final Arrangements for Sale
of Brush RunabOut Co. To United

Final arrangements for the taking
over of the Brush Runabout Co, oil
Detroit, by the recently organize
United States Motor Co, the sl6O0O,
600 corporation which controls the
MaXwell-Briscoe and Columbia plants,
are now being made in this city, ana
formal announcement OF the absorb
ton OF the concern will be made soon.
President Benjamin Briscoe and
otrer officials OF the United States
M0IOT Co. and It's SUBSIDIARY COLI
Germs. arrived early Tuesday morn
ing They were in conference with
Frank Briscoe. president of the Brush
Hunabout Co. and other officers or
that concern, for several hours in the
Wayne hotel. and Frank Briscoe ad'
mitted that the sale OF the Brush WAS
one Of the matters under considera'
ton. He declared. however. that IL
probsbly would take several days 10
close the deal
In the visiting party, besides Presi'
dent Briscoe. whose home, by the
way. is in Detroit, are: r. ID. Dor
man and Carl Tucker. respectively
secretary and treasurer of the United
States Motor Co; Richard Irving aud
J. d. Maxwell of the Maxwell Briscoe
Co. and several district managers.
The officials come here directly from
Newcastle, Pa. where they inspected
one OF the Maxwell Briscoe plants.
That the Brush Runabout Co. would
be absorbed by the United States
Motor Co, was announced by The
Times some time ago. In fact, a
brokers circular that was distributed
freely among local financial men, at
tina, time, stated that the transfer al
ready had taken place, but this report
apparently was incorrect.
