BUGS THREATEN POTATOES
University Professor Says Beetles
Will Do Much Damage Unless
Checked at Once.

Madison.-Immediate steps should
be taken by Wisconsin farmers to
check the ravages of the potato beetle
at once, according to a member of the
faculty of the University of Wiscon-
sin, as the hard shelled adult beetles
are now laying their eggs upon the
potato vines. Weather such as that
of last week, with frequent thunder
showers followed by intense heat, in
rreases the danger of harming potato
vines by spraying with paris green,
but if the vines are seriously eaten by
beetles they probably will never get
back to normal condition.
To avoid these difficulties the fol-
lowing methods will be used on the
northern demonstration potato fields
under the control of the college of
agriculture of the University of Wis
consin:
On small areas, from one TO FIVE
acres the hard shelled beetles will be
hand picked before the eggs are laid.
This will lessen the necessity for
paris green later on. Small hand
sprayers or atomizeTs will be used on
these fields to kill the hatch from such
beetles as escape hand picking.
Where reliance must be placed Gu
spraying with horse sprayers, the
paris green may be used at the rate
of two to three pounds to every fifty
gallons of water.

CHANGE IN DIVORCE LAWS
Senate Concurs in Bill Which Gives
Couples Power to Remarry After
Five Years Separation.

Madison short bill, concurred III

law after couple has voluntarily sep
Rrated for FIVE years they can get a
divorce. Parties who have been di-

The bill just past places those di-

tain a divorce with the privilege of re-
marrying after a period of five years.
1t is stated that attorneys who will
advertise literally can, in the next two

from couples who have been divorced
from bed and board over FIVE years.
In fact, it is suspected the bill eman-
Rted from this class Of attorneys, who

CURRENCY BILL is UP
GLASS MEASURE GOES TO FL

Provision for Retirement of Present
Bank Notes and Refundirq of
Bonds Is Relnserteu.

Washington, June 28.-The house
Thursday referred the Banking and
Currency Reform bill to the banking
and currency committee, and prepare
tons were made to begin work on it
Immediately.
The bill contains a series of changes
from the original draft. President
Wilson has given authority that the
measure as it stands shall be known
as the administration bill"
There still is a fight over the ques-
ton of public hearings, and ii is
not likely that the bill will be ready
for action in the house before August
10. The senate will not touch it un-
til the tariff is out of the way
Reinserted in the bill is the original
proposition for retiring the present
bank notes within twenty years and
the substitution therefor of additional
federal reserve notes. This eliminates
the proposed limit of $500,000,000 in
reserve notes contained in the bill

BIG REUNION IS ON
BLUE AND GRAY BEGIN BIG GEL.
E6RATIoN OF GETTYSBURG
BATTLE.
SPECIAL TRAINS BRING MANY
Veterans Are Housed in Over 5000
Tents-Formal Exercises Held Un-
der Canvas Near the Emmltts-
burg Road.

Gettysburg, Pa, July 1.-The arm
les of the Blue and Gray are again as
sembled at Gettysburg, after fifty
years.
This time the veterans met at her
doorstep to join in the semi-centennial
celebration Of the greatest battle of
the war between the states and to
show the world that scars are not so
deep as the feeling of American bro
therhood.
From early morning until long after
shutdown the veterans in blue and gray
trooped into the little town which has
slept SO peacefully among it's hills
since Lee and Meade turned their le-
gions southwark so long ago.
More than thirty special trains came
into the village during the day, and
thousands of veterans who tramped
up from the Shenandoah on their pre-
vious visit rode in the luxury of soft
backed day coaches from Harrisburg,
Baltimore and Washington. Instead Of
the roar of guns, the thunder of charg-
ing cavalry and the vocal tributes Of
the mule drivers that greeted them in
the other days, they walked or rode
through the quiet, calm Sunday, of a
country town.
From the station of the two rail
roads that come into the village is a
long mNe to the camp of 5000 tents
where the veterans are housed. Many
Of them made the trip by automobile
or by carriage or in the friendly shell
ter of a Seeing Gettysburg car, but
thousands shouldered their suit cases
and walked
The tents fall westward with the
slope of the ground from the Emmitts-
burg road to the point on Seminary
ridge, where the immortal charge of
Pickett started on the third day of the
fight. They cover the peach orchard"
and the wheat field,' where thou
sands of men were lost, and part of
the ground over which Pickett
charged, but they do not reach to the
bloody angle or to the base Of Gene
terry ridge. from whose heights Meade's
artillery poured out us merclleSs ram
of grape and canister and cut to pieces
the legions of Pickett.
The formal exercises will be held in
a big tent near Emmittsburg road, but
they will last only two hours each day,
and the rest of the time the veterans
will spend as they please.

bills which were duplicates of others
that had been acted on by the assem-
bly, or were to be acted on.
The senate has by far the largest
number of important bills which must
be acted upon. In the list of impor-
tant measures in the upper house,
which are in different stages of pro-
