May Party

The annual meeting of the
MAY Club was held at the resi-
dence of Mr.. and Mrs. h. A.
Harper on Tuesday evening, May
10th. Four candidates, Mr.. and
Mrs. Sullivan and Mr.. and Mrs.
Sweet were iniatiated into the
ancient, mediaeval and modern
mysteries of the fraternity, and
when it comes to giving candl-
date his moneys worth, take it
from the iniatiates that neither
the Wood men, Shriners, the d.
o. K. K. IS, nor any of the rest
of them have anything on the
May Club. County Attorney
Sullivan was so excited that he
forgot to object to the "incomp-
etent, irrelevant and i'm material"
questions asked, and County
Treasurer Sweet was so badly
frightened that he actually shut
tered in repeating the obligation.
AS to the ladies, but we promis-
ed not to tell on them.
A goodly number of May
Flowers we're present and all
enjoyed immensely the festivities
of the occasion, especially the
refreshments. Games, frivolous
and near frivolous, were engag-
ed in, and all the old boys and
girls we're fully as giddy as the
younger set, although no one
would admit that there were any
OLD boys or girls present. Fred
Judd wanted to play post office,
but DR., Fee, whose wife was
also present, objected and it be-
came almost necessary to call a
harmony meeting. However
they compromised on charades
and all went merry. #*

The light, the spell-word of the

Our guiding star in veal or woe,
Our talisman-our earthly chart
That sweetest name that earth

We breathed it first with lisping

When Graded in her arms we lay;
Fond memories round that name
are hung
That will not, cannot pass away.

it still,
More dear than sister, friend,

The gentle power, the magic
thrill,
Awakened at the name of mother.

NEELEY FOR
HIS PEOPLE
9TH District Congressman
Awake To Our Needs

Representative George A. Nee
ley of the Seventh Kansas dis
trict has taken prompt steps to
enable the farmers of his dis
trlct to protect their crops from
the grasshopper invasion which
threatens them from Oklahoma,
New Mexico, and southeast Colo
Srado. Mr.. Neeley has conferred
with the Secretary of Agricul-
ture who promises to send to any
part of the district experts from
his field station staff to show the
people just what can be done to
destroy grasshoppers and how
to do it. The Secretary advises
the use of Criddle mixture to eX-
terminate the pest. Concerning
this mixture and its use the
Secretary says:
"Grasshoppers may be poison
ed the most cheaply and satis-
factorily soon after they have
hatched, but both old and young
are readily destroyed by the
Criddle mixture.
"This mixture is composed of
half barrel of fresh horse ma
nure in which is mixed l pound
each of salt and Paris green. If
the manure is not fresh the salt
is dissolved in water and mixed
with the manure and poison,
When this mixture is scattered
\ freely about where the grass
hoppers are abundant they seem
TO be attracted to it, for they de-
your it readily and are poisoned
thereby.
Another poison bait is made
by mixing pound of Paris green
with so pounds of wheat bran,
brought to a stiff dough with
sweetened water. This is plac-
ed about the field as with the
Criddle mixture. The Criddle
mixture, however, appears to
give the most satisfactory re-
suits and is less expensive and
more easily prepared and ap-
piled. Throughout the country
west of the Mississippi River
from Mexico to Canada, it has
been used most effectively on
the farm, the ranch, and even on
the stock ranges.
"All grasshoppers likely to be-
come involved in serious de-
predations have very much the
same habits and are probab bly,
surceptible to about the same
treatment. The question of
speciesIs not one to interest the
farmer particularly, beyond his
ability to determine which one is
the most destructive and apply
This measures of destruction
thereto. The eggs are deposit
ed in the ground in masses, in
more or less kidney-shaped pods
in late summer and fall, IN
moderately compact, damp, un-
cultivated lands. The winter is
passed in the egg state. The
young hatch in the spring and
reach their full development in
summer, there being but a SIN
gle generation annually. The
eggs may be destroyed by either
blowing, narrowing, disking, or
otherwise cultivating such waste
lands to the depth of couple of
inches as late as possible in the
fall"

| Will SON ASKED TO KEEP
HANDS OFF MARYLAND
Former Attorney General Stratus Re
sents Alleged Interference in
Senatorial Contest.

BALTIMORE. Md. May 10.-Vigorous
criticism of the alleged interference
of President Wilson In the senatorial
campaign in Maryland is made by
former Attorney General Isaac Lobe
Straus. one of the three candidates
who have entered the campaign for the
United States Senate from this stale.
in an open letter addressed TO the
President.
After quoting various newspaper arti-
cles in which il is stated that the Pres
ident has picked out William l. Mar
bury Of this city as his choice for the
successor OF Senator Smith. and that
he intends to use all his power and in
f1uence as President in obtaining the
election Of Mr.. Marbury, Mr.. Straus de-
ciares that such an interference by the
President in the choice by the states
of their United States senators is i'm
pIfcably hostile to the nature and
structure of the United States Senate
itself" and that IL carried out would
destroy the vital principle Of the sepa-
ration independence and equilibrium
of the three great departments of the
federal government"
II am sure" the letter declares, that,
as President and personally, you can
not think the people of Maryland are
incapable of self government or that
they cannot be trusted to conduct their
own elections and choose their own
representatives for the Senate or any
other post of public duty"
