PERIL FROM INSECT PESTS
White Grub Working Great Damage
in Wisconsin; Says Prof. J. g.
Saunders.

Madison Something must be done
to save wisconsin from insect pests.
says Prof. j. Islanders, state EMO
moiogist, and particularly just now
check the devastation of the white
grub, which throughout the southern
part of the state is working ruin to
the corn crop.
Prof Sanders says that in Grant
county the corn crop is practically
ruined and that all throughout the
southern section of the state the loss
will range from 80 to 80 per cent.
The white grub he said. Is the worm
that develops into the June beetle.
but it takes three years to arrive at
the beetle stage aud during that time.
it lives on the roots of vegetation. It
is the three-year-olds, he said, that
now are working havoc with the corn
crop.
Proper rotation of crops and fall
blowing, Prof Sanders says, are the
most effective methods of combating
the grub. They thrive in the roots
of grasses in the meadows and when
these are plOwed in the spring and
the ground is planted to corn. or 9TH
er cereals for that matter, they are
in prime condition when the crop be-
gins to grow to "go to itsand they
do it with disastrous results.
The grasshoppers in the northern
section of the state are becoming a
curse and Prof Sanders said there
should be systematic warfare made
upon them. AS they work above
ground they may be killed with
sprays. s3
Wisconsin, he says, is behind other
states in making warfare on insect
pests but it must awake soon or the
awakening will be a sad one later, he
says. A 10 per cent loss on the six
principal crops. corn. wheat, oats, bar
ley, rye and hay, would amount in
Wisconsin in a single year to $13,-
100000.

aged "a years. was Instantly killed
by a fast Grand Trunk freight train
at S:15, Tuesday morning at this
place. No one, as far as known, saw
the accident. The train did not stop
until 1t reacAed Durand. when the
conductor telegraphed back that he
thought his train struck something
In passing through Perry. 3
Tne body of the unfortunate man
had been found before the telegram
from Durand was received. The body
was badly mangled, and the legs had
been severed from the body, which
was found about a car length from
the track.
How the accident happened is not
known. Mr.. Peck had good hearing
and only short time ago, was brag-
ging that he would never be run
down by train, as his hearing was
so acute that he would be warned OF
an approaching train In ample time.
Mr.. Peck was a pioneer of this
vicinity. having lived here for fifty
years. He is survived by three sons:
Henry, witn whom he had lately
lived; Byron of Smitn's Creek; and
William of California. The latter
and his family has recently been here
on visit and only few days ago
left for their home.

Currie had conference and agreed
to systematic procedure to facili-
tate the work. The result was a
conclusion that the work of the legis-
lature could be finished within the

No Sign of Special Session.
There has been persistent talk OF
a special session, but this has been
dissipated by an emphatic statement
from Governor Ferris that he had
had no thought of such a move and
none was authorized to suggest that
q special session was a probability
At several public gatherings the gov
ernor had remarked that should the
legislature not pass a primary law
that would meet with the popular
demand and which all parties were
pledged to, he would feel justified In
calling special session. The pas
sage of the James bill wiped out all
danger OF special session as it is
said to meet with the Endorsement
Of the governor, which is self-evident
as the bill has not received his veto.
