Small Town Neighbors.

Those who are doubtful about the
Joys of living in a small town, says the
Kansas City Times, listen to what Lee
Shippev has to to say on the subject in
the Higginsville Jeffersonian: This
lis the time of year when life is
pleasantest in country town and
neigbors are most neighborly. We can
sit on our porches in the cool of the
evening and visit, We can exchange
greetings with all who pass, and all
the summer long we live in a pleasant
atmosphere of human fellowship"
The account next pictures the COM
ing of neighbor bearing a vessel
filled with new potatoes, stringbeans,
beets, lettuce or some other honest 10y
of life fresh plucked from that kind of
nelghbor's garden. And on the NOR
row the good wife returns the vessel,
laden with cherries from our trees.
And each time the bearer of gifts
fingers for a pleasant chat All, yes;
we small town folks come far nearer
than do most of our city friends to
loving our neighbors as ourselves.

Trip around The World.

y Tuesday, Aug 4th. under the auspices
of the Ladies Aid Society of the Metho-
dist church of this city, trip will be
made around the world, which means,
in your imagination, that visit will be
paid to several foreign cities and while
in these cities meal will be eaten
such as is enjoyed by the residents of
those cities. You need not cross the
briny deep, nor enjoy sea sickness, or
pay large sum tor your passage. The
vessels that will carry the happy ex-
cursionists of this trip, will be automo-
biles and hay wagons, under the man.
agement of safe captains, of large ex-
perience. The fare will be only fifty
cents tor the round trip. There is nc
danger of high seas, nor icebergs, OF
dangerous fogs. 1t will be few hours
of rich enjoyment, with genial passen-
gers. Make all your plans to enjoy
this trip around the world and forever
thereafter live happily. For further
particulars see small bills.

THE ARMY WORM AT WORK
Great Destruction Being Wrought by
Pest In Certain Sections

The Army worm is getting so num-
erous on the Davis Farm and on II. &.
Smiths farm near Keyser, W. Va,
that they are using arsenic of lead to
kill them. They appeared in the last
few days by the thousands and are
fast killing the corn and destroying the
meadows. Already several acres have
been killed. They begin to work three
O'Clock in the afternoon and work hard
until morning. The worm has also
appeared in Allegany county. Garrett
county farmers had better keep a watch
for the worm
The following mixture for DESTROYING
the army worm has been endorsed by
the United States Department of
Agriculture: / pound of paris green
(poison), 50 pounds of wheat bran, and
juice of half-dozen oranges. Dilute
with molasses sufficient to bring mixture
to stiff dough and scatter among the
worms.

Died By Inches.

Funeral services over the remains of
the late John Barleycorn, who passed
away at his West Virginia residence on
November 4th 1912, were held from his
late home Tuesday evening, June 30th,
1914. Interment was made IN Prohibi-
ton Cemetery. The services were
public with the sermon by Rev. D. R. Y.
Voter, assisted by Rev, T. Totaler.
John Barleycorn was in the forty
ninth year of his age. He had enjoyed
splendid health until about two years
previous to his death. when he became
afflicted with severe attack of Anti
saloonitis while attending the 1911 ses-
sion of the state legislature. From
that time on he declined rapidly, and it
occasioned no surprise when death over
took him in the fall of the following
year. Wheeling News.
Among the relatives to survive him
are as follows, Mr.. Club House, Mr..
