HEssIAN FLY SHOULD BE Ex.
TERMINATED.

Farmers must remember that the

stubble during the summer. It is,
therefore, very desirable. where pos

fields before August 18th. also to de-
stroy all volunteer wheat. This will
prevent the emergence OF the adult
flies in September. 1t is not good farm
practice to follow wheat a second year

NEW CURE FOR RHEUMATISM
Woman Who Had Suffered for Many
Years Is Cured by Bolt OF
Lightning.

The medical faculty was put to
shame by a bolt OF lightning which
the other night struck the farmhouse
of Charles A. Burdick, on Washing
ton Ridge, says the Berlin Conn
correspondent Of the New York Her
aid. The electric bolt destroyed arti-
cles in all the eight rooms OF the
house and did damage exceeding $ls
900, but 1t cured Mrs. Burdick OF rheu-
matism, from which she had suffered
for many years,
Mrs. Burdick was about to put wood
In the kitchen stove when the bolt
struck her, knocking her down and
rendering her unconscious. One OF
her feet was on zinc beneath the
stove. The lightning took nail out
Of the sole of her shoes and her foot
was severely burned. DR.. Thomas
Mulligan Of New Britain soon revived
her

fering from the burns on her foot.
was free from rheumatic pains. She
does not think the price her husband
must pay in repairs to the house too
high, but Mr.. Burdick is discreetly 81

CLAIMS GROWERS SEND POOR
PACK AND NoNAssoRTEo
FRUIT TO MARKET.
PEACHES SOLD AT A LOSS
Mr.. Mcclelland Declares II Cannot Be
Charged the Lack Of Experience
Caused Some OF .he
Loss.

Rogers
Poor selection and packing are the
chief reasons why the late Arkansas
peach crop proved such a financial
failure, according to J. NJ. McClelland,
editor OF the Cooperative Press Of
Rogers, who has just returned from
the east, where he handled portion
OF the crop. Editor McCleland for.
sook the editorial chair in early July
and journeyed to Buffalo, where he
established headquarters with conneC-
tions in the markets OF a dozen east
ern and Canadian vicinities, Condi-
tions at that time indicated the grow
ers would reap a bonanza, but as the
returns now indicate the peaches were
sold in many instances at a dead loss.
The association that Editor McClel-
land was in charge OF disposed of 92
cars of peaches that were grown in
Arkansas and Oklahoma It cannot be
charged that lack of experience caused
some Of the failure, as Editor McClel-
land has handled many previous peach
crops and with unusual success.
According to Mr.. McCleland the Ar.
kansas peaches began to strike the
markets just after Georgia had unload
ed large crop and just after the
Texas crop had been disposed of. This
left the market well supplied. While
the harvest in the Ozark section Of
Arkansas was at its height a heavy
rain set in. It lasted several days. The
fruit became water soaked and began
to rot more easily than usual In fact,
when several cars Of this fruit reach
ed the market the product was In no
shape for sale unless repacked.
