Would Bond State For Roads,

Kalispell.-In line with previous ef-
forts towards the promotion of a uni
form and unbroken system of high
ways throughout the state, the Kalis-
pell Chamber of Commerce has ad-
vanced a plan for bonding the state
for this purpose. Resolutions will be
submitted to every other commercial
organization in the state asking them
to assist in urging the proposed meas
ure upon the next Legislature. A
state bond issue of s10.000.000 was
suggested by Secretary p. n. Bernard.

ECCENTRIC FARM
WORK THAT PAID
English Gentleman Used Novel
Method Of Ridd3ng Farm
Of InJurioua Potato
Beetle.
(By ]. H. HAYNES.)

On a neighboring farm lived an Eng
lish gentleman who certainly had
some novel methods OF working.
Ills farm consisted of some clay
lands. In the center OF this farm Was
a very rich, black field that had for
merly been a swamp.
The soil was mainly made up of de-
cayed vegetation, and when drained
was as loose as an ash heap.
In this field he annually grew po-
tatoes and watermelons. When the
Colorado potato bug came around he
headed them OF in this way:
He planted the potatoes In drills
and leveled the land smooth. When
the potatoes began to come up he ran
along the rows a cultivator and GOV.
cred all the young shoots under.
In q week or SO when they made q
second appearance he did the same
thing, using larger shovel ON the
cultivator. This was done the third
time using a single shovel pillow which
left the rows properly hilled up.
The bugs never got a chance at tn,

other fields to work on.
The covering OF the shoots seemed
TO help. for when they were left Il
the light and air they grew tremen
dously thrifty.
He raised watermelons and lots o
them. but not for the usual purpos
they are grown.
He pressed the Juice from the me
ons. boiled 1t down in copper evaI
orators to fair syrup. and with thu
syrup he used apples for thickenin.
to make apple butter, and It was of
quality hard to beat.
He supplied large quantities OF
to the nearby markets and at goo
prices. The syrup was of finest qua
ity and much OF 1t was used.
