The attendance at,all our SER
vices last Sunday was good, not
withstanding the stormy day.
Let us gather promptly at 10
o'clock next Sunday, that we
may begin our Sunday School on
the minute for we wish to close
in good time to join in the Union
Memorial service at IL O'Clock in
the M. K. church.
The young people will meet at
7 p. m. for a very important SER
vice and then attend the Bac-
calaureate exercises at the
opera house.
The Gospel team expect to
conduct service at Sunny Dale
and Lake View School houses
next Sunday.
The pastor will not go to Sum
ny Deli next Sunday as many
wished to attend Memorial ser.
vices in town.

Those of our membership who
have been sick are recovering
and we are thankful.
We gladly welcomed the re-
turn to Meade and to church of
Mrs. Walter and her daughter.
"A model Christian Endeavor
meeting" was the general COM
ment on our last meeting which
was led by Alice Adams.
We were aided Sunday night
by the presence of new visitors
and worshipers and will always
gladly welcome them and all in
our vicinity who have no regular
church home.
The Memorial sermon for our
Nations defenders and the Bac-
calaureate discourse to our ma
TONS hope rightly take proceed
ence of other meetings on next
Lords Day; but you will not ne
glect your Sabbath School, nor
Christian Endeavor meeting
wkere prompt assembling will
assure adjournment IN ample
time for the meeting at the
Opera House.
The next best to attending q
State S. S. Convention is to SEND
delegates who will repor! so viv
idly that we can see the scenes
and hear the best expressions
there and thereby catch the con
vention spirit and when Beulaf
Marshall is delegated to sucf
gatherings that's the kind of re
port we get as those who were
at Sunday School last Sunday
morning can testify.

The Hessian Fly
Continued from Page i

pal NhN ~
Nv have warned the wheat grow
ers of Kansas of their approach
ing danger, but have urged them
TO put into operation the prac
teal methods ofscontrol. Just
before harvest last year, more
than 10000 circulars were dis
tributed, calling attention to the
seriousness of the SITUATION
County farm agents and other
experts from the college were
in the field holding meetings ana
giving personal interviews. In
addition, practically all the news
papers and form journals gave
publicity to the fly danger IN
several of the counties having
farm agents the warning was
needed and methods OF control
were practiced. AS a result 10
these counties very little dam
age is reported.
Nothing can now be done 10
prevent the fly from injurIng
this years crop. In fact wheat
that is not injured at this time
may still be damaged by the n.y.
because indications are very
favorable, especially in the south
central part Of the state, for a
large supplementary spring
brood to follow the main spring
brood that is now injuring the
wheat"
To avoid or prevent serious
damage next fall, Mr.. Dean
points out, it is imperative for
the farmer to put into practice
the methods of control which
have been found practical and eff
fective. These are the meth
eds:
Disk the stubble Immediately
after harvest. This not only
conserves the moisture and
makes blowing easier, but also
starts the growth of the volun'
teer wheat and has tendency
TO bring about the early emerg
ence of the fly. In many cases
the disklng pulls out the stubbl'
and exposes the flaxseeds to un
usual climatic conditions, which
are fatal to many of them
About three or Jour weeks ate
disking, the ground should b.
plowed to a depth of at least 81,
inches and all stubble and volun
teer wheat buried under at leas
three inches of soil. BY dom!
this practically all the flies will
be buried, and it will be impos
able for them to reach the sur
face. Immediately after plowinl
the ground should be rehrme'
and worked into good seeded
II should also be kept mellow ant
free from all weeds and volun
teer wheat. The agronomy de
partment of the experiment sta
ton has shown that, where tn
ground is prepared in this man
uer, not only does 1t produce tn
maqimum yields, but the GRO
may be planted with safety late
in the season. Delay the plant
ing of the crop until the fiy-fre
date, which after eight years o
experimental sowings has bee
deter mined TO be from Octobe
! for the north line of the stat
to October II for the south line
In average years, with prope
preparation of the seedbed, tn
date of safe sowing is at leas
as early as the date on whic
wheat should be Sown to make
naxipum yield if no fly wer
present.
"For the best results in tt
control of Hessian fly" said M
Dean, "all farmers should c
,Sperate and follow the methoC
of planting as recommends
for the Hessian fly, like mo
farm crop insects, is most su

OF BRITAIN THREATENS TO ABDICATf
GEORGE V MAY ABDICATE

LONDON Oct. 8.-That King George the Fifth of Great Britain and Ireland will abdicate if the war comes to an inglorious end is made by his state men delivered with the fire of anger to Prime Minister Asquth yesterday The New York Sun publishes the ln- tervew between the king and premer and declares that it has the information from source which is absolutely beyond question: The interview of the most stormy description The king attempted to upbraid ASquth but that statesman in manner of Gladstone before him. in formed the king that he the premier, represented the people of the empire and to the people alone was rspons ble George it is then stated became pasSionatey en- phatic and announced that he will abdcate if the war comes to an nconclusive and disgracefu peace Since the failure to prevent Bulgaria from joining the Teutonc alliance the most bitter chagrn is apparent in all British circles and the British diplomats and government are blamed This event is believed to have precpltated the defiant interview of the king with the acting head Ot the government Asquith is said to have again towards the last reminded the king that the British constitution IS democratic and that the elected heads of the people are meant to be the rulers At this George grew more pas sionate than ever and declared: "Ihe king ot Great Britain should be leader and is intended to be leader
 know that under the constitution as king am only dummy but will not permit history to record that re- mained dummy when my country faced the greatest crisis of all times"
 The failure of the allied offensive in France, follow ng the failure of Russia and the entry of Bulgaria and the invasion of Servia have caused deep feeling in England that the fall of the government may be brought about.

KING GEORGE
MUCH LUMBER
 FOR R. R. WORK
BLUFF POINT COAL REPORTED TO BE OF EXCELLENT
 QUALITY.

ANCHORAGE, Oct. 8. Special Correspondence. )-The steam SchOon- CTS Northland and Wellesley arrived in port yesterday with 100000 feet of lumber for the Alaskan Engineer ing Commission. Cargo was loaded at the St. Paul mills Tacoma.
 The Lucy" owned and operated by Geo. w. Palmer of Knik reached this anchorage yesterday, with full cargo for Mir. Palmer's store at Knik. She will proceed to Goose Bay where the cargo will be lightered to destina- tion.
 At this time the Alaskan Engineer ing Commission have, in operation in the Anchorage yards, 29 flat cars, p western dump cars, and coming on the S. S. Seward 20 Rodger ballast cars. Very shortly three locomotives will be in service and six outfit cars.
 Reports reach here that the Cook Inlet coal (Bluff Point) used by the S. S. Sinaloa on her return to Seattle for cargo was the best ever used by the freighter. The captain who has had some 25 years experience as a skipper states that with few excep- tions it is the best coal he. has been able to get in his many thousands of miles on the seas.
 Dr. Stoughton of the Government hospital returned last week from a trip up the Matanuska with Mir. Ede's party. The doctor is very en- thusiastic about the future of the country between here and the coal fields in an agriculture way. He be- lieves the coming year will see more than one of the most substantial farming communities in the United States.
 The weather continues mild, how ever, the snow is getting down the mountain little more each day and very shortly, we can look for some real winter.

Anchorage Sailings
 End in Few Weeks
The Last Boats Leave November l. No Money Just Now to
 Pay Men.

The last boats will sail from An chorage for the outside on the Third and Fourth of November, after which navigation will be closed for the reg ular period. Judging by this morn ing there is some reason to believe that the winter will be far more severe than last winter and this may afford us the pleasure of seeing lots of our Anchorage friends during the season while they are enroute to or from the States.
 Just before the Farragut left An chorage notices had been posted ty .he Engineering commission stating that the money to pay the men had been delayed on account of the cable break. The deias' nas caused large number of men to lose their jobs, it is said The pay day has been post poned but, of course, the money will probably be forthcoming soon.

 ORA, MEXICO.

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Oct S.-The Yaquis massacred sixty-three people in the town of Sonora, Mexico, under the most brutal circumstances last Wednesday night. The town is a little mining settlement in the state os the same name and had been free from any of the consequences of the wars which have been raging in other parts of the country. The Indians had apparently no reason for attack ing the town but they rushed in wild and opened the bloody work without preliminaries. Some of the women and children were actually beaten to death, according to the news received here from the most reliable sources.

BLIND PIG RAID
 IN ANCHORAGE
TWENTY THREE MEN ARRESTED AND PLACED UNDER
 $75O BONDS.

Something like twenty-three people were arrested this week in Anchorage on the charge of selling liquor with out licenses and some of them are now languishing in durance vile be- cause of the inability to secure the triaing S75O which was asked as bonds to come up for trial when call
 ed. The raid, by all accounts, was quite a respectable one and apparent ly had some connection with the rec ent session of the grand jury. Dis trict Attorney Spence paid pleasant visit to the new railroad town week or two ago and it is we'll known, as stated in this paper before, that he guessed of the existence of the sight less hogs. Being a southern gentle man he spoke of them as blind tigers, which is a far more desirable zoologi- cal term. Some people coming over on the Farragut yesterday say that some of the alleged dispensers of illicit mental pain killer had beeome quite reckless because of their long immunity.

It was stated in this paper be- fore that over there a man asked for soda and got beer, and he asked for a lemon soda and got whiskey. If you asked for beer or whiskey straight you got lemon, probably. We'll, the twenty-three individuals arrested are now awaiting trial, or were awaiting trial at the time the Farragut left.
