POLI'S THEATER

With the wreck pictures which have caused sensation in their fidelity to the actual scene directly after it's occurrence, the big PoIi bill has made a distinct hit. From the Six Min strels with Norine Carman, the for mer star in musical com edy, to the very end-man who propounds the joke and pleases with song the entertain ment is one ovation. Probably no better vaudeville aggregation of black face talent has ever been seen on any stage than these. Their quartette of- ferfng is conceded far above the aver age seen here and the interlocutor comes in for much commendatio1 from her novel manner of producing the uninterrupted stream of fun.
 The Moneta Five, high class enter tafners are also drawing well and in deed they offer a, most elegant inter pretation of both classical and popu- lar songs. Mime. Moneta, the silver haired queen of the family is a most regal woman both in personality and in her musical performance which is credited by local musicians with pro- found technique Two daughters who play the piano and render vocal selec- tons and limitations put across high class material that has met with ready response in the hearts of the local patrons.
 John T. Murray in his newly con cefved act has fairly hipno tized those who adore the eccentric and with an additional batter of the latest bon mots from Broadway and London. throws a vitality into shis allotted time upon the stage which many will try to initiate during the season.
 Judge and Gaile and Port and De- Lacy are holding the attention and offer some unique conceptions of the latest and best in their respective lines. White, Pa1zer and White, in their eccentric diversity are merry makers of a, distinct type.
 The Paythe weekly bulletin and lat est hrst-run films are shown in addi- tion to the great wreck scenes and will attract both young and old.
 For the last half of the week a spe- cia1 treat is in store for Po1i patrons in J. K. Emmett & Co.,, who will ap- pear in a, short one act sketch dis playing that rare dramatic power for which he is so well noted

This picture is most beautiful and dramatic showing Miss Gardner in a most captf- vating role. Picturesque in costume and setting and presented with a per lection Of detail rarely seen. The man agement have secured number of very fine photographs of Miss Gardner which will be given to the ladies at- tending In addition to this feature, three other new pictures of comedy will be shown continuously from 1:30 till il p. m.

hogs to root out these grubs should not be delayed later than the middle of October. nor practiced earlier than April or May, since in winter the gruJs are probably too deep in the ground to be reached.
 The May beetles usually deposit egaH in fields Of grass, timothy. and small grains especially in the vicinity of timber where they feed. The croTz planted in these fields the year follow ing a season of beetIes should Ia those least susceptible 10 grub injury. Such crops are small grains <, bucIzWhear. clover, alfalfa and peas. There is no authentic record of the grub attacking these crops. In 1914 a maximum acre age of such crops as corn and potatoes should be planted as this will be iu general. a season for beetles rather than grlbs. ~These should be kept thoroughly cultivated during the flight of the beetles (May and June)- Land which is planted to small grains, timothy and other crops which cover the ground with vegetation at thiG time should be planted in fields tor thest from trees.
 Liberal applications of commercial fertilizer will assist grass in overconn- ing grubs if there are not too many of them.
 When a lawn is badly infested tbs sod should be removed and the grubz gathered by hand, after which, fall blowing will probably prove eatisfac- tory. Tn Europe cheap labor is often employed to gather grubs after th[ blow, especially where the grubs arg numerous.

MAY BEETLE EXPECTED TO BE.
 UNUSUALLY ABUNDANT IN 1914.
Deep Flowing This Fall Will Do Much to Control Common White GTubs of This Beetle Which Seriously Attack Corn, Timothy, Strawberries, Pota- toes and Nursery Plants.

Washington, Sept 10-A very con- servative estimate places the damage to corn, timothy, and potatoes in Iowa, wisconsin and Illinois done by the common white grubs in 1912 not less than $7,OOO 900. This estimate re- suited from a personal survey by John J. Davis, Scientific assistant, Bureau of Entomology whose interesting pam phIet on the Common White Grub was recently issued as Farmers Bull letin No. 543 by the Department of Az ricuIture
 The damage to the same crops in other infected areas cannot be figured at less than $5,OOO, 900, which brings the total loss, exclusive of strawberries, nursery stock, lawns and miscellan- eous crops to not less than $12, ,0Oo,00 for one year. Injury was sustained in almost every section of the country north of the Ohio river from the Att lantic ocean to South Dakota.
 Observations seem to make it quite certain that in the northern states the total life cycle of this injurious species is three years. May beetles were un- usually abundant in 1909 and in 1911 and the grubs caused the greatest damage in 1909 and 1912.
 There is a general belief, which is erroneous, that the common white grubs of the field and the white grubs found in manure heaps and rotten logs
 
 ties are not known to breed in refuse of any kind.
 The grub of the southern green June beetle is also commonly mistaken for the more serious pest. The grub of the June bett1e seems to prefer fertilizd soils and may also be distinguished from the true white grub by it's pecu- liar method of crawling on it's back.
 Farmers in the regions infested last year will find 1t of special value to do deep blowing this fall. Ordinarily the best time to p1oe is between October 1st and October 18th. The grubs will at this time have changed to pupae and adult beetles. These pass the win turbed their inhabitants will be des- troyed.
 It is important to remember that blowing should not be delayed until cold weather for then the grubs will have gone down to their winter quar- ters beyond the reach of the blow.
 An infested field may be thoroughly freed from grubs by pasturing itN with hogs and this method should be fol- lowed wherever possible. Hogs will root to a depth of foot or more in search of grubs. For infested lawns hogs are efficacious but are not usually deeirab bIe as they tear up the sod.
 Domestic fowls-turkeys in particular are preferable for lawns and if giv- en the run of infested fields when the land is being plowed, will destroy large number of grubs. Pasturing of

THE PLAZA

The exce1Iency of the bill at the Plaza theatre for the first three days of this week is causing no little com ment around town and the comfortable theatre is taxed to capacity at each performance.
 Bell Boys and Bellies is the big at traction and it is scoring at every appearance. Eight pretty girls, dain- tily costumed and two boys make up the cast and it is riot of color, mus ic and mirth from the rise to the fall of the curtain. The action takes place date hotel with the inquisitive clerk and nimbIe bell boy cutting up many screamingly funny capers with the guests. The Stroud Trio, featuring Baby Violet Stroud, the youngest prima donna on the American stage are on the bill Baby Violet, although a, tiny tot has sweet voice and a winning personality.
