ANNUAL REUNION is
HELD AT LEEPER PARK
Thirty -four Members of Remley Fam
lily Greet Long Lost
Relative.

The annual reunion of the Remley
family was held at Leeper park Sun
day afternoon, "a enjoying the din
ner. This reunion was Of especial in
terest to ]. w. Remley and wife OF
Clifford. H.; as his immediate family
had become separated from the In
diana branch many years ago, and
only recently was he acquainted with
his relationship. Another member
present from a distance was Mrs IDA
Van Dusen of Sacramento. Cal.
The next reunion will be held the
fourth Sunday in August, 1913, al
Hudson lake.
The following lines contributed by
Roy Fl. Curry we're appreciated by
those present:
Just a year has left its footprints
On the sanded strands of time,
And a step upon the ladder
OF our future we have climbed.
Now again the harvest sunshine
Is making ripe the grain,
And the leafy woods are nodding
Meath the harvest moon again.
Soon their robes will turn to scarlet
And the air grow cold again.
or the chilling autumn rain.
But the future is but nothing
To the present which is here,
We are living in the present,
And 1t alone Is clear.
We are here today assembled.
Greeting each other with a smile;
We alone can answer.
Is today worth while3
Yes. today is worth the effort.
And it comes but once year.
For the hand shakes and the smiling
Have in them worlds Of cheer.
Tho we were sad, now we're happy,
And the smiles which we reap
Will be put In the hearts own closet,
And We'll lock the door to keep.
AS the suns rays kiss the water,
Break into soft beams Of white.
So our mingling here together
Makes our hearts grow equally light.
One has left us in the past year.
He has gone to his home above;
Still he's cherished in our memory,
And his memory we love.
God has called and he has answered
He has gone TO the other shore,
Where we some time hope TO meet him
And be happy ever more.
God has formed two happy unions
In the year that has sped away;
May there be less shade than sunshine,
And their skies be never gray.
Tho at times the shadows deepen.
And with cares We wish for rest,
Yet we know that God hath said:
"All things are for the best"
So let us then be happy,
Meet our troubles with smiles.
Tho our load Of cares seem heavy,
Zach one has his trials.
Now when evening shall divide Us,
Let Us VOW with many a cheer.
That nothing shall prevent US
From our meeting again next year.
When next August comes TO meet us
We all with baskets in hand.
Win somewhere again assemble
In a joyous and happy band.

FIVE HUNDRED RED
MEN HOLD OUTING
South Bend Members Win Tug of War
But Drop Ball Game to
MiShawaka.

Five hundred Red Men Of South
Bend and MishaWaka tribes and their
families boarded special cars at the
South Shore station Sunday morning
for their annual picnic at Hudson
lake. AS soon as the cars arrived the
sports were started.
South Bend tribesmen were victori-
Gus in a tug of war but that advantage
was overcome by Mishawaka who
easily defeated the Benders in a game
of baseball. The Mishawaka team
won a brass bed as a reward for their
efforts.
Honors in the "a contests held were
about evenly divided between the two
lodges. Prizes for the events were
donated by the merchants Of South
Bend and Mishawaka.
The crowd came back on any car
they desired and all wore smiles on
their countenances at the success of
the day Plans are already under
way for the big event next year.

GRASS FIRES KEEP
LOCAL LADIES BUSY
Forty-Seven Calls Answered by Fire
Department During the
Past Month

Forty-seven calls were answered by
the fire companies of South Bend dur
ing July. This number is not an I'M
usual amount according to the rec
ords, but many of them were runs to
grass fires. Losses at these fires
amounted TO $1,1SO. Twenty-one
building fires, Is grass fires, four
chimney fires, three rubbish fires and
one fence fire is included in this list.
on several of the grass fire calls,
when the fire company arrived they
found people watching the blaze to
prevent it's spreading, and the alarm
was telephoned in by someone who
saw the fire from a distance. The
men at the fire station suggest that
when anyone burns the grass off a
vacant lot, as they should do, they
would save trouble by calling the fire
department and notifying them, and
then if an alarm did come in from
that section a needless run would be
saved.

My conclusion in regard TO planting Is
that one dollar inve stsd IN the autumn

and nursery stock in general. Spring
paintings do not often give as large re-
turns and frequently whole year ,s

call OF spring starts the sap upward.
When the nursery Is still in the icy
grip of winter or just letting go. II a
dry spring follows the spring planting

But the autumn set tree has been ad-

harmlessness of thus species

to the acknowledgements OF the second
generation
In 1895. when the city of Washington
was visited by an unusual number ~
these insects. one Of the later genera
tions of caterpillars, which hatched
about August 2. commenced to spin
about September 3. During the latter
part Of September most OF the moths
made their appearance and tho CON
spicuous white egg masses were very
abundant on the trees by October |.
Caterpillars Matching after October
are unlikely to develop into moths.
The year after the pest in 1895 there
were very few tussock caterpiliars In
the city Of Washington. The pest was
not nearly 80 abundant this year az IN
1895. and there liz no reason to believe
that there will be any fewer next year
than there have been this year unless
there Is a general campaign against tho

HUMUs AND SOIL FERTILITY.

In connection with a series of local
lied tillage surveys conducted by the
Department OF Agriculture in seven diff
ferent States the yields were in each
case in proportion to tho percentage
Of humus or vegetable matter in the
soil
Grass or sod crops turned under are
valuable in supplying vegetable matter
to the soil. on lands especially poor
in humus It Is often advisable &c grow
summer legumes. such as cogpeas or
soy beans. TO be turned under in fall.
Stable manure is OF great value in in
creGsing humus. Winter cover crops,
such as annual clover. vetch or rye,
are now extensively grown. to be turned
under in the early spring.

TUSS0CK MOTH DAMAGES SHADE
TREES.
How to Control II. RavnEes.

The caterpillar OF the tussock moth,
which is noticeable because OF three
long black tufts OF hair protruding from
It's yellow body. has done considerable
damage to many shade trees during the
summer and fall This insect, which
extends through the eastern United
States as far west as Iowa, seems TO
prefer poplars. naples, elms, alders
hirches and willows. Besides !njuring
trees, its barbed hairs occasionally pro-
duce considerable irritation on the skin
OF persons upon whom the caterpilars
drop. To control the ravages OF this
pest the coming season the conspicuous
white egg masses laid by the moth
should be destroyed after the leaves
have fallen, when they may be very
easily noticed.
The United States Department OF Az
riculture's entomologist considers the
above method preferable to that of band
ing the trees after the egg masses have
already been laid During the pas.
