ence on last Wednesday, his children.
relatives and friends gathered at
residences of his sons-in-law Messrs
:: w; Kelly and O. Lobbins, living
sac Dy SIDE on st. Anthony avenue
TO celebrate the great event.
The guests, principally the .'old
settlers, gathered at the residence of
Mr.; Kelly, which was very tastefully
and appropriately decorated. On the
o1nner table was very large square
cake on which the figure "7O' was
outlined with tiny wax candles in little
rose holders. -
The house was packed to overflow.
Ing and the gathering was most
unique, there being more old timers
present than On any occasion for
many years.
After the crowd got too large for
comfort the male portion of the guests
repaired to- the residence of Mr.. Lob
bins, next door, where they, as the
Hon. Bardwell Sloat says, in the cal
mighty Dollar" had H. o. T. (high
old time). :.
It had been intended that Mr.. w. A.
Hllyard was to act as master of cere-
monies, but owing to the sudden ILL
ness OF his wife he was unable to be
present and his place was very ably
filled by Mr.. G. w. James. IS
After the smoke had been sorter
pushed aside, Mr.. James made few
appropriate remarks and called upon
Mr.. A. H. Drake of Saltwater, who
made a few remarks. He was fol-.
lowed by Mr.. J. B. Johnson, Mr.. w. T.
Francis, Mr.. T. H. Lyles, Mr.. J. H.
sLoomis, Mr.. Chas. HI. Miller, all of
whom made splendid and appropriate
speeches, full of pleasing reminis-
cences of the happy past. Mr.. John
H. Hickman Sr. was then introduced,
he spoke at some length and at the
close of his talk presented to guest
of honor handsome "cellerette'' with
it's accompanying equipments among
which was a brass tray upon which
was engraved the names of the donors
as follows: T. H. Lyles, Allen French,
J. P. Anderson, w. A. Hilyard, E. O.

As only those who had lived in the
state for 80 years were eligible as
speakers no more were called upon
and the guest Of honor made his
response, which like all the speeches
that proceeded it was very apropos.
The ladies who had been left In the
other house had very good time
among themselves, but they did not
like it one bit, because they were
shut out from the old stays.
Mr.. Combs was also presented a |
number of other useful and valuable
gifts.

were served in abundance The en-
tire occasion was most highly enjoyed
and the guests, at a late hour, left
wishing the 20 years young man many

CONDUCTING INQUIRY
. - rs ~ =. = -.
INTO c. COST OF LIVING.
President Orders Investigation
Of High Prices.

Washington.-An. investigation into
the reasons for the high cost of living
which is nation wide in its scope has
been going on quietly for some time
at the direction Of President Wilson.
Administration officials are devoting
particular attention to marketing meth
DDS In an effort to get at the root Of
the matter. The greater; part Of the
work has fallen on Secretary Of Agri-
culture Houston and his department.
The problem Of the high cost Of liv-
ing embraces two divisions, so far as
the investigators are concerned. These
are: = s4
How to afford means to the farmer
to increase the production Of his land
and how to lift the burden Of the stead
lily increasing cost of food from tho
masses.
1T is recognized by administration
officials that scientific farming alone
will not offer solution Of the prob
lem, but that a study must be made of
marketing facilities. organization and
community effort in order that some
thing effective may be done.
!. 1t is admitted that there is consider
able alarm over the fact that inClica-
tons point to sharp rise in the price
of foodstuffs during the coming win
ter. This is particularly the case with
eggs and beef. The former, 1t has
been said, will rise to Is cents per
dozen, while warnings have been is
sued that beef may reach the dollar
mark before long.
Secretary Houston has formulated a
list of questions which are being sent
to farmers in all parts Of the country.
These questions deal with ownership
tenantry and credits, and from the-an-
swers Secretary Houston hopes TO
build the groundwork for his invest
cation.

HER MAN TOO OLD FOR WAR
Aged Woman Slams Door on Deputy
on Pension Mission,

Madison, Wis, Oct. 14.-Complying
with requirements laid down by the
1913 legislature the Wisconsin indus
trial commission is completing it's in
vestigation into the subject of old age
pensions. - ,..@
Some deputies met difficulty in the
canvass because of the extreme re-
luctance of aged people in giving in
formation. One venerable German
woman slammed the door in deputy's
face, with the enraged remark that
my mans too old to go to war; be
sides, he left Germany forty years
ago."
In many cases the commissions in
vestigators found that aged persons,
apparently poverty stricken, were
possessed of broad acres and ample
incomes.

next summers attack by the grubs.
William Moore, head Of the section
of truck crop and greenhouse insects,
division of entomology, University
Farm, summons the farmers to act
ivity in the following.
s'Next year, from all indications,
white grubs will be abundant. AS
it is impossible to destroy the grubs
under field conditions, when they are
causing injury, farmers should do all
in their power to prevent an attack.
"The first preventive measure to
be adopted is the fall blowing of all
fields which have been iii clover,
small grain, or sod this year. It
would be we'll also to turn hogs into
such fields, as they will destroy large
numbers of the grubs. VI
Sin planting fields next year. the
farmer should plan his work so as
not to put corn, potatoes, strawber-
ries, or other similar susceptible
plants in land which has been in sod
or clover this year, unless such field
has been fall plowed. Glover, alfalfa,
buckwheat: wheat, rye, or oats can
be planted in such fields as have not
been fall plowed. Corn can be
planted in land where there has
been some we'll cultivated crop this
year, as the beetles do not lay eggs
in we'll cultivated land. Farmers
should watch, when blowing, as they
can easily determine which fields are
most severely infested, by the number
of grubs turned over when blowing. -
