Cuyahoga county, Ohio, will add GO
miles Of rural brick road to its 40J
miles Of similar pavement, in 1914,
thus strengthening its distinction If
being the best paved rural district
Of any similar area in the world.
A minimum width of sixteen feet has
been adopted for roads to be laid dur
ing the coming summer and the en-
tire expenditure, including fills,
bridges, ETC., will be somewhat in ex-
cess of 100000. The adaptibility of
brick to rural roads was first proved
in Cuyahoga county and the policy Of
building for permanence was adopted
there, even before automobile traffic
drove other localities to copy similar
construction. Cuyahoga county has
expended more than eight million dol
lars in this type of road. In spite
of the cost the county is money ahead
according to county officials, for the
increase in taxable rural land values
has yielded more than the total cost
in revenue.

DAMAGE BY FLOODS.

Eastern Colorado has suffered more
from rain and floods this year than
ever before. Just week ago great
damage was done by the Platte river
as the following extract from the
Denver Times indicates:
Reports reaching Denver show that
the floods in the Platte river and
other streams are much greater than
generally supposed. All bridges across
the Platte river between Denver and
Platte canon have been put out of
commission with the exception of one
leading from Fort Logan. The water
has spread out over the farm lands
and in many instances has cut new
channels.
The Union Pacific railroad has sent
out more than 100 carloads of riprap
to protect its tracks at points along
the river. The town of South Platte
has been badly washed by the river.
The Littleton bridge across the riv-
er has been out of service for six
weeks.
The volume Of water in the Platte
was the largest yesterday at any time
in its history according to local rec
ords. 1t reached volume of 3,700
cubic feet per second at Platte canon.

LINDsEy's MOUNTAIN A MOUSE

Ben Lindsey's concrete plan" for
settling the strike-that is, to have
the federal government close down
the mines in Colorado until the OPP
orators consent to arbitrate the closed
shop proposition, the only point real
ly at issue today-is said not. to have
found favor with the president or his
cabinet. The plan strikes us as abou,
what one might expect from Lindsey,
whose logic and motives are gener-
ally as sound as a busted puff-ball.
To ask the cabinet to consider prop
osition involving the principle, or lack
Of it, that property is not entitled
to protection is revolutionary beyond
the dreams of wild-eyed syndicalism
The concrete" part of the plan is
wholly mush. These mines have been
kept in operation because the bust
ness interests and individuals Of the
state are dependent upon them for
fuel. Close them down, and then
where is anybody at-operators, strik-
ers or people? And where's the con-
stitution at? But, then, what more
could be expected of Lindsey--a man
who makes capital of the states dis

man that neglects it is the man that
is going to lose heavily on his grain,
potatoes and sugar beets, but by fol-
lowing any of these simple rules
above the worms can be controlled
and stamped out. They are a result
of our unusual weather conditions.
The great amount of moisture this
spring has been very beneficial to
the growth of the worm and injurious
to the flies which kill them. A few
days of dry, hot weather, the natural
enemies of these worms will increase
very rapidly, and will assist more
in stamping them out, but you will
have to use your own efforts quite
extensively and it should be done i'm
mediately. In our neighboring coun-
ties there are several instances where
whole fields have been destroyed in
one day.
! Mrs. A. E. Puryear, who is here
from Georgia, called at this office
this afternoon to tell us how they
combat the army worm in Georgia.
The real army worm travels like an
army. When it is discovered which
direction the army is going plow a
deep furrow between the field occu-
pied by the worms and the next field.
The worms will fall into this ditch
and when they are in the ditch they
can be plowed under, which ends the
career of the invading army.

LAYING IT ON" THE FOREIGNER

Washington Star.
Again the foreigner. He is respon-
sible. But for him there would have
been no coal strike in Colorado. But
for him there would have been no ap-
peal to arms. He, with his turbulence
whetted abroad and his hazy notions
of conditions in his new home, has
head-deviled the whole bloody busi
ness.
Let us not deceive ourselves. The
turbulent foreigner trained under op-
preston may not be the most desira-
BILE of citizens. 1t may be difficult
to tame him even in the land of on,
portunity.
But the fact is that when he ar
rives in America he finds men of ma
tive birth as turbulent as himself. He
hears American institutions derided
and reviled by those born under them.
He sees excesses inspired by, and
committed under the leadership of
Americans talking in terms Of prog
ress and patriotism.
Is it surprising that he becomes
lawbreaker? He is told that our
boasted opportunity is myth; that
II exists when at all only for the
rich; that the poor have no rights;
that a few men own and control the

vARIEGATED CUT WORMS MAKE
ATTACK ON ALFALFA.

Montrose Enterprise.
The "peridroma margaritosa" which
is the scientific name for the varie-
gated cut worm, has been discovered
in the alfalfa fields of this locality.
The pest has been looked upon as
the "army worm," but after care
full investigation on the part of Mr..
White, the high school agricultural
man, he tells US that they are not the
army worm, although closely related
to it, as far as effects are concerned.
The principal difference, according to
Mr.. White, is that the worm which is
with us does not travel from one field
to the other as does the army worm.
Quite a number of the most promi-
nent ranchmen of Montrose county in
Creek mesa, east Of Montrose and
south of the city, met with the coun-
ty commissioners yesterday to devise
ways and means to fight this worm.
After fully discussing, in which Pro-
fessor White was present and joined,
it was decided to adopt everal meth
DDS, all of which are good.
For sections where there are no
bees within a radius of two miles,
to leave a stretch of alfalfa about
four feet wide and spray that heavily
with arsenate of lead. The worms
will leave the field after the hay is
cut, they reach the poisoned hay, they
will eat it and it will kill them. Be
careful that horses or cattle are not
allowed to reach this standing hay.
After it has served its purpose it
should be cut and plowed under in
new field, or burned.
When there are bees the best meth
cd would be to leave . stretch of al
falfa standing, make dry bran mash
composed Of the ration of one pound
of paris green, 20 pounds of bran, 2
quarts of syrup and mix with three
and one-hah gallons Of water. Min
it well and flavor with lemon or
orange extract. Make band around
your crop and when the worms come
to it they will eat it and be killed.
This bran mash could be sown
broadcast over the cut field and then
sown very thickly in the grain, al
falfa, along the potato fields, the
beet fields. Just as soon as the ground
is dry enough that you can make
dust mulch, shallow pillow about two
feet wide, then harrow and drag this
until it is fine dust mulch. This
will kill the worms that reach that
dust.
There is nothing alarming in the
situation If everybody will fight them
and our farmers are fortunate In TAX
ing the matter up on the start before
they have done the damage that they
have In the neighboring counties. The

ity are for him because they feel they
have to be, but with their declaration
for him they express the thought that
he will not live the term out and if
they have a good lieutenant governor
they will win in the end even if Pat
terson is elected. For the most part
the Denver crowd is talking John
Martin Of Pueblo for lieutenant gov
ernor. The cold-blooded politicians
figure it this way, that If Patterson
could accept the governorship after
he has been United States senator,
then Martin can accept the lieuten-
ant governorship after he has been
congressman. They also figure that
Patterson and Martin would form a
combination that could not be defeat
ed.
They further figure that even if
Patterson did not die during his term
of governor Martin would be the log
ical candidate for governor in 1916
and if he made. good as governor he
could defeat Shafroth for the United
States. senate in 1918. Some rather
far-fetched figuring, but nevertheless
the old Speer crowd and the long
headed politicians who always figure
four to six years inadvance, are quiet
ly passing out the above ideas to the
old line Democratic politicians, and
before the week is over it will be sug-
gested to Martin that instead of COM
ing out for governor against Patter-
son, he accept the nomination for lieu
tenant governor, with the promise
that he will be the Democratic nomi-
nee for governor in 1916 and if he
makes good. the Democratic nominee
for the senate in 1918. This combi-
nation would take Martin out of the
race against Patterson for governor
and Thomas for the United States
senator.
None of the politicians are very
strong for Thomas and they hope to

beat him this year. They would like
to see Ed Taylor try it. However,
Ed knows that he has a cinch on
congress from his district and Ed
was never known to give up a cinch
politically for an uncertainty. If
Martin will not fall for the lieuten-
ant governorship then thep rogram
is again in a chaotic condition and
no one can guess just what will hap
pen.
Mr.. Patterson's strength, as stated
above, is problematic. He has been a
powerful character in this state. On
the other hand there are very few
leaders in political life whom he has
not defeated at some time or anoth-
er. Naturally, there is some doubt as
to whether all of these leaders will
support him in his desire to be COVER
nor.

position of some of the other candi-
dates. If John Martin runs against
him, Patterson will have the fight of
his life for the nomination. Tom Tyn-
an is being discussed but no one feels
that he will stand any show against
Patterson. Mayor Speer was the
candidate of the anti Patterson forces
but he has announced flat-footed that
he will not run. He made that an
nouncement late this evening. As
soon as it became known that Speer
would not run the Speer crowd with
julius Aichele, the old Speer leader,
at their head Immediately announced
that they were for Patterson. Aichele
to friend sized the situation up as
