BOYS REAP N|CKELS
WARNING SPEEDERS
South Chicago Police Are
Fooled by Young
Financiers.

Nick Fitzgerald and Michael Kane,
policemen of the South Chicago police
station, are looking for two young A.
nanciers who not only reaped a harvest
from automobiles returning from Indi-
ana yesterday but put a crimp in the
will laid plans of the bluecoats to
catch offending speeders.
The two policemen planned n speed
ers' trap in Ewing avenue. Kane sta
toned himself at One Hundred and
Fourth street while Fitzgerald stood at
One Hundred and First.
As the automobiles swept into Ewin z
avenue from One Hundred and Sixth
street Kane gave a signal by which
they could be timed as they covered a
measured distance. This trap had not
caught a single victim by nightfall and
it was learned that two boys had sta
toned themselves in One Hupdred and
ISixth street, where they gave warn
|ings of the policemen's presence in re-
turn for nickeIs and dimes.
In some cases when automobilists
from Indiana were going at pretty
good speed it was said certain ice
cream parlors and nickel shows in the
vicinuity did an extra heavy business

Pure "Ad" Law Soon Effective.

On and after July 4th all advertis-
ing must be truthful and not mislead-
ing. as is often the case now. Adver-
Using with intent to defraud will come
to an end at that time. Advertising
in which erroneous statements are
made, printed in newspapers or on
posters, will be illegal and the adver-
tiser will be subject TO fine.
Along with the necessity for having
foodstuffs pure and bakeries clean and
the oil not mixed and plenty of cam
phor in the spirits, there must be hon
esty in advertising bargain days and
cheap farm lands at bargain.
But the newspaper publisher is not
to be held responsible if the advertis.
er says things in the ads that are not
quite right. The new law lets out the
publisher entirely under good faith
clause which covers multitude of
things.
The new Iowa law as it was en-
rolled and goes into the session laws,

Tragedy of the. Road.

1t is appalling what a slight slip in
driving an automobile will bring
about. Last week a merry party of
tourists was winding along the beau
tiful transcontinental route in Iowa
with no thought except of the invigor-
ating air, the pleasing scenery and
the reunion of family at the end of
the trip. Suddenly monster of the
road, harmless when passing by a
tourist occupying the prescribed route,
crashes directly into the party, kill.
ing, manning and bringing eternal
sorrow to such as may survive. There
is no malice, there is no murderous
thought, simply the refusal of brake
band to work or of spark to ignite,
and joy and affection is turned into
horror and mourning. The world will
never be the same to the ones who
are fortunate or unfortunate enough
to escape the general destruction of
the family
The lesson to be drawn is only too
plain. No driver, however confident
in his engine, should ever take a
chance crossing a railroad track when
train is coming. The law long ago
provided that trains and street cars
should come to dead stop at all un-
perfected crossings. 1t was just such
possibilities as the stoppage of power
or current that the lawmakers had in
mind when they passed the bill. OF
course, there can be no law requiring
road drivers to stop before all rail-
road crossings. Every driver should
be law unto himself and make
mental resolution that he never will
take chance crossing ahead of a
train. How are the innocent made to
suffer by the breaking of this rule!
Safety First" has been introduced
among all railroad employees. 1t
would be well indeed if all road
drivers could be induced to adopt the
same motto. Had this been the rule
the happy tourists would have been
proceeding on their way this glorious
morning and the endless gloom of the
survivors of a broken family would
have been averted.-Boone Republi-
can.

Not Appreciated-Why?

There are but a few editors in our
state who have not made a vigorous
and continuous fight against the city
mail order house. This has been done
in the interest of the home merchant,
and without money and without price.
If the editors of the land had re-
ceived regular advertising rates for all
they have said against these enemies
of the country merchant they could
now be wearing diamonds Now the.
department store man appreciates
space and is willing to take all the av-
erage country editor has for sale, and
at good price. What other class
of business or professional man would
refuse business to help their friends,
especially as many of said friends
never seem in the least disposed to
return the compliment or even appre-
ciate it.-Britt Tribune.

Continuity in Advertising.

The merchant who places advertis
ing in only few newspaper issues is
sometimes disappointed that large re-
suits do not Immediately follow.
Modern life is crowded with inter
ests, people live in hurried way
and public attention is tickle. Let the
advertiser consult the new science of
craftsmanship and business psycholo
gy. He will be told that nothing at.
fects the mind like reputation. Con.
slant dropping wears away the stone
that is not affected by the single hard
shower.
If a man of striking appearance
passes by your place only at long in.
tervals, you would scarcely recollect
his features from time to time. If
person of ordinary appearance
passes regularly for short time. his
face becomes firmly fixed in your
mind
The merchant who will advertise
regularly even if only in small
space, will be surprised to see how
the public will look for him in his
regular position and be disappointed
if he fails to appear.
The familiar name in the business
news is greeted with as much pleas
ure as the familiar face that you
meet on the street. Once interest is
created by mans methods of ad-
vertising, readers turn to it is to a
serial story.

first name forms the nose and eye of

end forms the ear. From the upward
loop of the P heavy line curves

JUSTICE ~ SATISFIED.

The manner in which justice is some
times melted out to unfortunates is
to be greatly deplored. TO casual
observer the poor, miserable stranger
in strange land, thousands OF miles
from home, stands but little chance
when brought before the strong arm
of the law. A man of means and in
fluential, a man among friends, equal
ly as guilty as the miserable unfor.
tunate, is unmolested nine cases out
of ten, and is merely warned to find
his way home.
A pitiful case was brought to our
attention on Friday last, when young
man, an utter stranger, was locked
up over night and the next morning
taken before a justice for trial. The
testimony developed the fact that the
unfortunate was water carrier for a
railroad gang. The men had the day
previous been paid off, and as is u.s.
ually the case, began spending their
money for drink. with the result-a
fight. The underdog or innocent wa
ter carrier, attempted to stop the row
and was roughly handled, his face
marked for months, his clothing torn,
etc. Seeking relief to his wounds and
a quiet place to sleep off his intoxica-
ton he sought a shady nook where
he would be unmolested in his sleep.
The eye of an officer was quick to de-
tect his place of refuge, however, and
he was dragged out and placed in jail
over night. When taken before a
justice the following morning, in his
sober moments, the unfortunate told
a straight and truthful story, and was
asked Immediately how much money
he had. Ten dollars and ninety-two
cents werd brought to Light whereupon
he was promptly fined ten dollars. the
cents were returned to him

Fighting the Grasshopper.

The grasshoppers are coming. Some
of them are already at work. Fully 80
per cent OF the eggs laid last fall prob
injured, according to George A. Dean,
the bug expert at the Kansas agricul-
tural college. Professor Dean says
grasshoppers will probably do more
damage this year than in 1912, unless
prompt and vigorous work is done to
destroy them. Poison bran mash, the
hopper-dozer, poultry and young hogs
have proved efficient for checking the
ravages of grasshoppers.
Poison bran mash should be made
in this way: Bran. 20 pounds; Paris
green or white arsenic, pound; syrup
2 quarts; oranges or lemons, 3; water.
3k gallons.
In preparing the bran mash, mix the
bran, Paris green or white arsenic
thoroughly in wash tub while dry.
Squeeze the juice of the oranges or
lemons into the water, and chop the
remaining pulp and the peel to fine
bits and add them to the water. Dis
solve the syrup in the water and wet
the bran and poison with the mixture,
stirring at the same time so as to
dampen the mash thoroughly. The
bait, when favored with oranges or
lemons, was found to be not only more
attractive, but was more appetizing,
and thus was eaten BY more of the
graashoppers.
The damp mash or bait should be
sown broadcast in the infested areas
early in the morning. The amount of
bait made by using the quantities or
ingredients given in the formula,
should cover four or five acres. AS
very little of the bran mash is eaten
after it becomes dry, scattering it
broadcast in the morning, and very
thinly, places it where the largest mum
Der will find it in the very shortest
time. Sowing it in this manner also
makes it impossible for birds, barn
yard fowls or live stock to get enough
to kill them. On alfalfa fields, in or
der to get the best results. the bait
should be applied after crop has been
removed and before the new crop has
started. AS the poisoned bait does not
act quickly, it will be from two to four
days before the grasshoppers are
found dead, and these will be more
numerous in the sheltered places. 1t
does not take much poison to kill them
Even small portion from one of the
poisoned flakes vii lbe sufficient to
cause death.
Coal oil has been used in many ways
for the destruction of grasshoppers,
but is most commonly used in the hop
per-dozer, a device which consists of
la long, shallow, galvanized iron pan,
mounted on very low runners. The
hopper-doZer is very effective where it
can be drawn over an infested area
near the surface of the ground. 1t is
necessary wherever grasshoppers be-
come destructive. On infested bare
areas or fields where it does not in
jure the crop, grasshopper damage
can be quickly checked by it's use. 1t
can be used without injury in an al
falfa field for two or three weeks al
ter a crop has been cut.
Any grade of kerosene can be used
in the hopper-dozer. The first cost of
a hopper-dozer should not be more
than S. 1t should be operated at a
cost not to exceed 20 cents an acre.
