The Philharmonic Society, organized
in the fall of 1914, for the purpose
of stimulating a musical atmosphere
in the district and giving to the city
musical organization whose efforts
were for the raising of the musical
standard. After continued rehearsals
the people of Ely were pleasantly sur
prised by the grade of music present
ed and the able manner in which it
was performed. With regret the or

work owing to the a
During the past two months the

FIVE COLLEGE MEN
FIND EMPLOYMENT

With the university campus now
practically deserted, Ely has attract
ed five of the students who have
gone to different parts of the tate
and to California. The Nevada Con-
solidated Copper company has given
its customary recognition to youths
who are ~endeavoring to obtain a COL
lege education.
Lee Scott, James Rice, Edwin
Sawther and Felix Brezinsky have
been successful in obtaining employ
ment at McGill and the money that
they will earn during the summer
vacation will be utilized in assisting
them to meet expenses that will be
necessarily incurred during the APP
preaching school year.
Twelve have gone to Tonopah for
the summer, that camp receiving its
customary recognition. Five have
been drawn to Aurora, two 10 Fair
view, five to Buckhorn, two to Man.
haitian and three to Goldfeld. The
farms have attracted a few.
Earl Borchert, a member of this
years graduating class, has accepted
a position with the Nevada Consoli-
dated at McGill. He is a grandson of
John Borchert of Cherry Greek, and
took chemistry as a major subject.
Among the women graduates, a
few have decided to attend some of
the eastern girls schools, but the
majority of the goods have returned
home to rest during the summer and
take positions in the state schools.
The year just closed has been the
banner one to date, with approxi-
mately five hundred students enrolled
including the short courses in min
ing and agriculture. The next term
begins August 80 and from the ap-
plications filed, it is expected that
the largest freshman class in the his
tory of the institution will be regis
tered.

MINISTER DISCUSSES
SITUATION IN EUROPE

Rev. ID. ]. Ferguson of the Meth
odist church delivered a lecture last
Thursday night at the Bio hall. his
subject being The Kings, the People
and the Men Behind the Guns in Eu-
rope. Although pointing out the
errors of the military system in Eu-
rope which resulted in the present
war, the speaker paid a splendid
tribute to the German people. The
address was entirely devoid of par
tisanship, as the clergyman Is a ma
tive of England. Wit and humor
were frequently interpreted
throughout the address. The oppor-
tunities of the American people as a
result of the embroglio in Europe
were commented on by Rev. Fergu-
son, who had no trouble in holding
the close attention of a large audi
ence for more than an hour.
A musical entertainment was CIV
en- in connection with the ministers
address. Mayor Witcher acted as
chairman of the evening and express
ed his appreciation at the oppor-
tunity of presiding at such a meet
ing, which indicated that Ely was
fast becoming a city of homes,
churches and schools.
A vocal number by Mrs. F. w. Mil

MY SWEATER

The wintry winds blew cold and

And have to pay a doctors bill :
My mind was filled with grave alarm;
l needs must shield my frame from
harm
And seek protection from the storm
A happy thought! aha" said I,
Unto a dry goods store I'll fly,
And with my hard earned gold will
buy
A sweater"
Then from a window fair to view,
l chose from out the red and blue
And brown and green and gray ones,

My sweater.
1t was as white as angels wings.
1t made me think of lambs and things
Like ermine on the robes Of kings,

With such a bargain l was blest,

For now it looked all white and clean
AS in the window I'd first seen
My sweater.
But when l tried to wiring it out,

My sweater.
For it expanded large and wide.
From neck to hem, from side to side,
Alas! Alas!" In grief / cried,

The sleeves hung down quite help

authority, This Is what MacGeoghe-
gan observes about it:


gan observes about it: -
"The authors of his life say he
spent the forty days ION Croach-Pat-
rick, County Mayo) without taking
any food. Jocelin likewise adds that
he collected all the serpents and ven
omous reptiles of the country upon
the mountain and cast them into the
ocean, to which he ascribes the ex-
emption of this island from all ven
omous reptiles. However, Solinus,
who had written some centuries be-
fore the arrival of St. Patrick in Ire
land, makes mention of this exemp-
ton, and after him, Ilidore, Bishop OF
Seville, in the seventh century, and
Bede, in the eighth, speak Of it with
out assigning any cause. 1t appears
that Jocelin is the first who gave this
account. Thus it is probable that 1t
proceeds from the climate, or the ma
ture Of the soil, rather than from any
supernatural cause"
Or is may be the obvious explana-
ton, so often suggested that the "ven-
omous reptiles" had reference to the
pagans and idolaters from whose pow
er and influence St. Patrick delivered
the Irish by his Christian teaching
and preaching.

VALLEY CITY MUST ACT
TO SAVE HER TREES

1. The Cottony Maple Scale seems
to prefer the maple or box elder trees
to others. They however attack many
other trees, shrubs and vines. A num-
Der of box elders over town should be
thinned out, as the scale can then be
better sprayed. Many trees are stand
ing too thickly, often five or six trees
growing from one spot. Other trees
might we'll be carefully pruned The
scale works best in the shade.
2. All trees left standing should be
carefully examined for the scale and
if any are infested they should be
sprayed, with the following spray:
Kerosene Emulsion
Laundry soap Tor one quart of soft
soap. R pound.
Water. .....1 gallon.
Dissolve the soap in boiling water,
then remove from the fire, add the
kerosene Immediately and stir the
solution until it forms creamy liquid
To each gallon of the above, add one
and one-third gallons of water and
again stir thoroughly. Spray this
this solution on the tree being very
careful that every part of the tree is
covered. Don't put enough on at any
one place to run off, for this is a
waste of material.
This spraying can be done with a
good barrel sprayer on fairly large
scale, or by smaller sprayer if only
a few trees are to be sprayed.
The city should see to it that the
trees in the park, which are badly
infested with the scale, should BIZ
sprayed. This would necessitate the
buying of couple of barrel spray out
fits which will cost around $25 apiece.
These then might be loaned out to
private individuals who wish spraying
done, the city furnishing man to
run the sprayer. The owner of the
trees sprayed should be expected to
pay for the materials used and for
the wages of the man.
1t is to be hoped that this matter
will be taken up by those interested
in the beautiful trees of the city and
that some cooperative action will be
taken. Trees must be sprayed before
any growth begins or the leaves will
be injured seriously. The earlier
something is done now the better it
will be. M. G. JAMES.

DISTRIBUTION OF CULTURES
FOR NEGOTIATING SEEDS

In distributing cultures for inocu-
lating leguminous seeds, the depart
ment of agriculture has determined
to adhere to last years practice and
to limit the supply that will be sent to
one planter to two bottles. Each bot
tie contains sufficient culture to inocu-
late thoroughly one bushel of seed.
The limitation is made necessary by
the probability that the funds avail
able for the distribution of cultures
will prove inadequate to furnish them
in unlimited quantities.
Planters who have had no previous
experience in the use of cultures and
do not understand exactly what meth
DDS are necessary for successful
seed incubation should write to the
department for information and for
application cards. All requests for cul-
lures must be transmitted upon these
application cards. Preference will be
given to advance reQuects, and farm
ers are urged to apply to the DE-
partment for the culture at the earli-
est possible date of sowing the seed.
Planters are requested to plant a
small quantity of uninoculated seed on
a portion of the same field with the in
oculated seed. This, it is said will
materially aid the department in max.
ing observations and comparisons
which will prove valuable to planters
in the future.
