NOW is THE TIME TO
KILL WEB WORMS
To Farmers And Beet Growers
Of Sedgwick County.

Now that the sugar beet harvest is
over, and the land has been frozen to
a depth of six inches and thawed out
again, the conditions are ideal for the
farmers in this district. or, in fact. in
any district in Colorado, to make
systematic fight on insects, crop pests,
such as grasshopper eggs, web worms,
tic.
L. the Julesburg District, j. e. from
Dorsey to Julesburg this web worm
pest cause great deal Of damage to
.he beet crop besides damage to other
crop. Large fields of beets were en-.
tirely denuded of foliage and as this
damage was done to the crop in Sept.
ember, it was too late for the growth
Of new tops. This followed by very
cold weather through delivery Of crop,
has resulted IN the Sugar Company
receiving lot Of badly damaged beets
from lack Of this foliage to cover the
beet piles in the fields. Those beets
nave been frozen and thawed out again
and are practically worthless for sugar
making.
Now it hchooves the farmers who in
tend to grow bects next season. to try
and exterminate those pests. The field
which cannot be fall p.owed, which is
The best thing that can be done with
them, should be thoroughly narrowed
nj q ctr i,rt,t
ed to tear the surface fully two inches
deep. The worms that have spun
cocoon over themselves for the wiLtc.
are crushed by the narrowing or thrown
out to the clemens where sunshine and
frost kill a very large percentage of
them. The alfalfa cullivator or
renovator is a much better tool than
the harrow for this work, as this cult
walton vii! make Il material growth on
alfalfa fields where the worms have al
so done condsderable damage; so that
besides throwing out those pests YOU
are greatly beneftting your coming
crops.
We may have storms throughout the
winter but in Colorado they are gercr-
ally of short duration and the lard
thaws out enough TO DO this work. which

An Exciting and Disgusting Day in

NENh Gkf 49, -"
New York, Sept. 14.-In the course
of day that was both exciting and
disquietins to Wall street traders,
tsocks slumped severely, only to re-
cover later on. The selling early in

to flood the market New Haven fell
below the low point of the panic of
1907. and sold at 126 rs. the lowest
figure since the stock was placed on

active list generally established an
the year which have been made in the
last few weeks. Losses ran to more
than three points with larger declines
among inactive issues. The upward
movement which set in early in the
afternoon was as irresistible as the
and heavy covering of short contracts,
particularly in Union Pacific. United
States Steel and Reading. At the same
time evidences were seen of buying
for the long account. The market
eased off at the close In all the long
declines which began early in August
there has been no day on which ru-
mors that various nlisfortunes were
besetting the financial world have
flown about so rapidly. although they
were without the slightest founda ton.
The fact that the source of the sell
ever was doubtless responsible for the
circula ton Of these reports. The err
ratio movements of stocks produced
considerable tension. The early de-
c1ines were due largely to selling by
London and to a large supply of stock
on direct orders from Berlin. Lon
don's transa ctions in this market were
estimated at 10000 shares. chiefly
sales. Bank of England's weekly
statement showed that it had preserv-

GREAT 1ACkSTOPS THE KEY.
Star Catchers Necessary to Pennant
Winning Teams in Nearly All Cases.

Higs class catchers seem to be al
most Indispensable to championship
ball clubs. True, there have been d
few pannant winners, notably Detroit,
who could not boast backstops whose
work bordered on greatness, but vast
ma jority of them were very strong
behind the bat. This was true of the
old Detroit champions of 1887, with
Charley Bennett behind the bat.
Hughia Jennings managed to struggle
along without a really high class
backstop. until this season, and to cop
a few remnants despite this handicap.
But the surprising and phenomenal
development of Oscar Stanage has
served to strengthen the Tigers in that
departn this season.
Had not, Jennings cast aside Archer,
it would not have been necessary for
Detroit to await the budding of Stan
age into a star. Archer was a dia
mond in the rough, but Jennings failed
to discover the fact, and when he turn
ed adrift the Cubs present mainstay
behind the bat he was guilty of one
OF the extremely few errors in judg
ment that are to be found in his man
agerial career. Take the first five
teams in the National league, and il
will be observed that all of them are
strong behind the bat when it won its
first flag. while Jim White. one of the
original Big -Four, was Boston's main
stay behind the bat at the three fol-
lowing seasons. Then White was with
Chicago in 1876, when that club won
the National league pennant, and when
he returned to Boston in 1887 the
Beaneaters added a fifth flag to their
collection. That season, however.
White declined TO catch Bond, and
SNYDER was added to the staff
Chicago had the great Silver Flint
behind the bat when it won three PEN
rants in 9. row in 1880. 1881 and 1882,
and again in 1885 and 1886. when it
added two mora trophies.

LEVY SCORES WoLGAsT.
ROCHE PANS MATT WELLS.
The Michigander a Foul Fighter in
England, the EneIishman in Cali
forpia

In discussing the possibility of Ad
Wolgast taking trip to England to
meet Matt Wells for the worlds
championship, Dave Levy, manager OF
Wells, does not boost WolgaSt along
SO that said boost is perceptible. Levy
insists that. Wolgast would not last
through one fight in the British Isle.
He is such a foul fighter" Levy
says, 'tthat the referee would be COM
PEELED to disqualify him sooner or
later. Over there they warn stran-
ger twice. If he persists in fighting
foul they simply stop the bout and
give the decision to the other man"
Levy Acknowledges that Wolgast is
great little fighting machine. but
toned his praise by saying that K. @.
Brown is just as good.
In England they do not recognize
Wolgast as the worlds champion. As
the champion Of America, yes. but for
the big noise, no. sir. For Wolgast to
have a clear title to worlds champion
he would have to meet Wells at 135
pounds ringside OF course this news
will not cause any earthquakes, but
hriny have their own ideas.
Billy Roche, OH the other hand.
wishes to proclaim that if Wells
hiked to the Pacific coast and engaged
in fisticuffs he would not last two
rounds. Why? Simply that Wells, ac
toIuHlS 10 ftoche' - lo.ii hsAlei-
out on the coast" chirps Roche,
they don't pay much attention to
boy that is inclined to be rough. pro-
viding he fights all the way. But in
the case of a clever boxer of Wells
order. who is an adept at all tricks and
would get in this sort of work inten-
tiopaily. there would be a howl. Ev-
erybody knows that Nelson, Wolgast'
and other lads who have fought on the
coast are not white haired boys. but
they are always tearing in and fight
ing.
With Wells barred from the coast
and Wolgast tagged at the shores of
England. what will the poor boys do?
Just keep on raking in the dough.
