DEATH OF MARY GRAY.

Word has reached the city OF the
death of Mrs. Edmund Bohan, at her
home in Los Angeles, Calf, which
occurred August 1st. Deceased was
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Gray of Schotield, well known early
residents of Schofield. Mr.. Gray
for many years owned and operated a
saw mill in large tract of pine tim
Der south of Schotield. Their home
was on the banks of the Eat Claire
river, now owned by Frank Fullmer.
Everybody knew "Jack" Gray and
his estimable wife in the early days
of the pinery. Their daughter, Mary,
was born and grew to womanhood at
Schofield, and was very popular and
beloved by all. She was graduated
from the Wausau high school, class
of 1883, and afterwards was graduated
from the State University. About
twenty years ago she went to Los
Angeles with her parents to reside.
Soon afterwards she was united in
marriage to Edmund Bohan, and has
continued to reside in Los Angeles.
She had not been in good health for
the past two years. She was about
As years of age. She is survived by
her husband and two children, her
mother and a sister, Mrs. G. j. eau
ley of PipeStone, Mimi.

CONTROL POTATO
BLIGHT BY SPRAYING

To prevent losses from late blight
of potatoes, some cases of which have
just been reported from central and
southern parts of the state to the de-
partment of Plant Pathology of the
College of Agriculture, spray the
vines thoroughly with Bordeaux mix
ture.
Rainy weather is especially favor
able to the development of the dis
ease. 1t is well, therefore, for potato
growers to watch the progress of the
disease in other sections, and to keep
sharp lookout in their own COM
munities for signs of blight To
avoid the trouble, apply the Bordeaux
mixture before the disease appears in
the field
Serious damage to the potato crop
of last year was caused by this late
blight, and prices were lowered be-
cause of it, according to j. G. Mil
ward, in charge of potato seed certifi-
cation work in the state. The dis
ease not only destroys the vines in
the field, but also causes tuber rot,
both on the field at harvest time and
during storage.
Bordeaux mixture, made up of 3
pounds of copper sulphate (blue lit
mus; 10 pounds of lime, and 100 gal
Ions of water will be found satisfac-
tory in controlling the blight. To be
effective against the disease, however,
the Bordeaux must be applied with
pressure spray pump that will put
the liquid on under from IS to 100
pounds of pressure. Where a single
nozzle pump is used, it is usually
necessary to apply the mixture to the
vines twice, spraying them from OPP
posite directions. Best results are
obtained about ten days, making four
applications when spraying is done at
intervals during the season.

DROWNED.
Philip Saindon Met His Death in Lake
Pipin, Mimi, Last Sunday.

Word was received in this city on
Sunday by relatives, of the drowning
of Philip Saindon which happened on
that day at Lake Pepin, Mimi. The
particulars were not received. De
ceased was 80 years of age and leaves
a wife and one daughter. He had al
ways lived in Wausau up to three
years ago when he went to Lake
Pipin and entered into the claim
business, which we presume is gather
ing clam shells for factories. They
also knew that he had new motor
which he was to try out that day.
They think that in doing this he
met with some accident. His broth
ers anton, Joseph and Emil departed
yesterday morning for Lake Pepin to
be present at the funeral.
