sixty-nine years Mr.. Lathrop
been identified with newspaper
* in this section and he is also
oldest member of the Luzerne
bty bar.
| r. Lathrop was born in New
k March 5, 1927. His parents

The minutes are the farmers gold
en- nuggets. Mine them with
CHEEKY heart.
The man who hurries is the man
who worries. Neither of them ever
paid a cent on the investment.
Cut loose from every habit which
robs you of time, strength or mon
ey.
If you have a hired man who is
kind to the stock, grip him to you
with bands of steel. He is worth his
weight in gold. You may have to
pay him little more, but he will
earn it all back for you by the bet
ter care he gives the cows, horses
and sheep.
Even a hog knows when he is
well used. How is it at your house?
Dry straw and a warm pen are a
hogs idea of paradise and he will
appreciate 1t enough to lay on fat a
bit faster than if he has to lie all
the time in the wet and the cold.
Shut out the cold which has been
coming in through the cracks of the
barn. Ventilate in better ways than
that. A window on hinges so that
when partly opened it will shut the
air toward the top of the room is
far better than between the boards
of the siding. Better still is a VEN
tilating shaft reaching from the
basement to the top of the barn.
You have many things to be
thankful for, but none more so than
to have healthy wife and boys and
girls.
Modern poultry culture recognizes
no such thing as the mongrel. 1t
pays to raise good stock.
Remember the fact that the hen
has palate and when she doesn't
seem to relish one kind of food try
another.
Fowls should be fed meat in some
form to take the place of worms,
bugs and grasshoppers that they
cannot get now.
Don't make the hens stupid, lazy
and Improbable by overfeeding. The
active, eager hen is the one that in
creases the egg supply.
Write somebody a letter tonight.
Don't tell all about your hard times.
Be bright and CHEEKY. 1t may save
the friend fit of the blues and
bring you back good letter in re-
turn.
Handle every creature on the farm
carefully and as you would like to be
treated yourself. 1t is humane
man who does this, but ought we
not all to be humane?
Under the worst circumstances
you are away ahead of men in any
other country in this world, so far
as your rights and privileges are
concerned. The right to pay taxes
sometimes seems pretty nearly as
tough as any we have; and yet,
think what that right really means.
Would you rather give up paying
taxes than to live under the blue
sky of a country SO glorius as
ours? Not many of us would say
yes to that.
Be the farmer you would like your
neighbors to think you Area Vet
eran Farmer.
Get some better sheep around you
this year.

Overcoming Neighbor's Indiffer-
enCe.

In every neighborhood, where
there are fruit trees, there are prop
erty owners who are Indifferent to
the matter of giving such fruit trees
as they may have proper attention
and care. To the painstaking neigh
Dor, who is spraying his trees and
fighting the scale, this is exasperat-
ing.
A fruit grower in the suburb of a
flourishing Pennsylvania city, wrote
to Professor H. A. Surface, State
Zoologist, for advice as to what can
be done with one of his careless
neighbors. The reply of Professor
Surface was as follows:
/ am interested in your recent
letter in which you state that you
fear your labor has been in vain be-
cause your neighbor has not spray
ed his trees, although you did so.
can assure you that 1t is not nee
essary for you TO be worried about

this, as he will be the sufferer In
stead of you. Your trees will be
much better for having been spray
ed once each year, when the leaves
are off, with the lime-sulfur solu-
ton. This will be enough to keep
the scale in perfect control upon
them, if you will use it strong
enough and thoroughly. In fact,
you should do this whether your
neighbors trees have the scale or
not.
My neighbors around my large
commercial orchard all have San
Jose scale, but it does not worry me
in the least. | give my orchard Just
the same treatment as | would If
they did not have the scale. 1t is
true that there may be few Of the
pests blown across the fence to your
trees, or carried by the feet of birds,
or otherwise, but your neighbor's
trees will continue to suffer and die,
while your will thrive. There is no
special advantage to you in having
him spray his trees for San Jose
scale, although, If you wish this
done, the law takes care of it by pro-
vidlng that all that is necessary is
for you to report to the Secretary
of Agriculture that pests exist on
certain places, and he must have the
place inspected, and If the pests are
found, they must be treated accord
ing to his directions, and within a
certain time prescribed. If this is
not done, the Secretary of Agricul-
ture is authorized to destroy the
trees or see that they are properly
treated, and charge the expenses to
the owner. The name of the infor-
mant is not divulged in this way,
and no neighborhood difficulties are
created"

," BIC JACK" zELIG,
 GUNMAN, KILLED
RosenthaI Murder Witness Slain
 on Eve of Becker Trial
.B0WERY BUM THE ASSASSIN
Notorious Leader of Thugs Had Prom ised District Attorney Whitman to
 corroborate Jack" Roses Story
 of Plot to Kill RosenthaI-

New York-"Big Jack" Zelig, the most notorious gunman, gang leader and pickpocket in the city, was shot and killed at Fourteenth street and Second avenue by Philip Davidson, q Bowery drifter Davidson had an en- counter with Zelig a few hours preyt nus. in which, Davidson says. Zeiig blaekjaeked him and took S49o from him. The killing of Zelig was David sens revenge.
 On Zeligs person were found many memoranda and several letters dealing with the Rosenthal murder Among Inc letters were four, one from each of Inc men now in the Tombs indicted for the actual murder of Herman Rosenthal-"Gyp the Blood Horowitz Lefty Louie" Rosenberg. 'Mhi.ey Jack Lewis and "Dago Frank Giro hei.
 These letters contain no reference .e Lieut. Becker, nor is Herman Ros- snthalas name mentioned. But through put them there runs a tone of conf fdence in Zelig's plans 10 get the four free of the charge of murder, and in every one is a promise that they will soon have freedom and will be in Zelig's company. All the letters are written in spirit of camaraderie.
 The letters indicate an even closer intimacy between Zelig and the four murderers than had been suspected.
 The killing of Zelig on the eve of the trial of Lieut. Becker for the mur- der of Herman Rosenthal may lead to nndreamed of developments, though there was every indication that behind the mJrGer of Zelig there was nothing more than the personal revenge of Davidson.
 ZeH2 had promised District Attor- hey Whitman that he would testify that Jack Rose said that he went to Zelig, at Becker's reqdest, to get the gunmen to kill Rosenthal.
 Zelig would not have admitted that he had rounded up the murderers, but hie testimony in the opinion of the District Attorney was essential corro- boration of part of Roses story in- criminating Becker. which Was in great need of corroboration.
 The death of Zelig also means that the case against Policemen James C. White and John c. Steinert two of Beeker's old strong arm squad, now nnder indictment for oppression and perjury in causing the arrest of Zelig for carrying concealed weapons and swearing to the falsehood that he had a pistol in his pocket, will have to be dismissed. The District Attorney can go no further, lacking his prosecuting witness.
 Another result of the death of Zelig which interested officials and under world alike IS that the s10.000 put up for Zeli bal on the Steinert-White charge will be released. Rose and Webber say Chat this cash was sup piled by Lieut. Becker himself and that for appearance sake Rose, Web Der. Nallon and sam Paul pretended to subscribe S2,50G each to the bail fund
