WHITE GRUDS SEEN
TO BE PLENTIFUL
w. A. Johnson Tells How He
Prevented Millions.
Caught 200 Gallons on His Farm
Last Summer--Yet, There
Are Plenty.

1t will be recalled by many readers
Of The Herald that in May, 1914,
a series of experiments was carried
on at the farm of w. A. Johnson,
northeast of this city, with view of
trying to eliminate the June bug,
the known progenator of the white
grub. The Herald made exhaustive
reports on the line of treatment
taken up, as well as the probable re-
suit. Prof. Sanders, of the Uni
versity, had charge of the expert
ments.
1t was when the bugs were flying
their best, that a dozen lights were
set I'D, so made that the June hug
might be attracted to the light, and
be precipitated into tub of water.
w. A. Johnson was in this office, last
Friday, and told us many interesting
things regarding those experiments.
During the few weeks that the lights
were out, more than 200 gallons of
bugs were drowned. A gallon of
bugs will count out 200, so if they
caught 200 gallons there were ac-
counted for no less than 440, 600
bugs.
Only about 80 per cent of these are
females, so there were destroyed
about 242, 900 producing bugs. Now
it is said that each female June bug
can lay between so and 80 eggs.
Say the average is 80 to each female
bug, and you have the enormous yield
of y, 100. 900 white grubs that did
not come into the world, because of
the experiments conducted upon Mr..
Johnson's farm.
Mr.. Johnson says there are still
a plenty of grubs. In places he says
that the ground, when opened, is
speckled white with the little fellows.
These young grubs are about an
inch long, while full grown grub
will generally reach II inches long.
Mr.. Johnson says he is mighty fear
ful about the results on crops.

EVANGELICAL S. SCHOOL
HAS ITS ANNUAL OUTING
Goes Early on Thursday to Schrein er
Park--As Many as 200
Persons There.

Scholars from the Sunday school
of Bethlehem Evangelical church,
with their superintendent, the Rev.
Louis F. Schmidt, teachers and parents
were early at Schreiner park on
Thursday for the annual summer
picnic. The children assembled at
the church as early as 10 o'clock and
were driven in autos to the pleasure
grounds. 1t is said that as many as
200 persons were there.
After the youngsters had investigat-
ed every nook and corner of the
grounds; after the boys had climbed,
or attempted to climb, about every
tree in the valley, they were brought
together and a program that had
been prepared in advance was
presented. The seats and benches
were arranged in a semi-circle and
the company was seated.
By now it was noon, and the baskets
were brought forth. And such a dis
play of eats. Fire was made in the
cook stove, coffee was brewed, some
foods were "het up and as fine a
spread as Schreiner park ever harbor-
ed was then and there made. Then
the afternoon was spent in visiting by
the elders. and rambling by the
youngsters. 1t was a pleasant day.

ROAD WORK GOES ON
FOR ALL THE RAIN
Many Good Jobs Completed
in North Section.
HoadIey Hill Is Completed and Gang
Now Building CUIVerts-
Henry Gets Stuck
the rainy weather,

Notwithstanding the rainy weather,
and consequent interruptions, work
on permanent roads is going on in
every quarter, and generally it is
making satisfactory progress Several
large jobs in the stown of Clifton,
including that mean old nuisance,
Animation Hill, have been finished as
scheduled. and so it is with other
contracts and jobs in the northeast
portion of the county.
Down in Paris and Jamestown are
the real storm centers in road work.
Those towns have provided the funds,
and this entire section Of the state is
watching the expenditure of the large
appropriations. Hoadley Hill was
completed, last Wednesday, and it
was big undertaking to begin with.
Now all is lovely. In one place the
fill in the middle of the road was no
less than 10 feet, while on the down.
hill side of the road at that point
the fill was as much as 80 feet. The
top of hill had to be cut off, in
order to bring the per cent of grade
down, as much as feet and IL
inches. This was the top of mar
row hill, and the earth take out of
the cut was hauled both ways to
make fills.
Now, Hoadley Hill is a long.
steady grade, at no point more than
seven per cent in elevation, which is
easy climbing, for either an auto or
a team. Peter Miller was foreman
on this job and made a good account
of himself. He had large force of
men, of necessity, and when the
ram gave them chance they made
the dirt to fly. As soon as this hill
was finished, Peter took a force of
men and began building culverts of
concrete. There are % of these,
and they range all the way from Is
inches to six feet in diameter.
Down in the southwest corner of
Jamestown, Fred Dugdale is surfac-
ing the big fill from Eagle Point
bridge to Sandy Hook, and that work
will soon be finished, for the surfac-
ing is the finishing touch, except
perhaps the guard rail. Fred Skemp
is doing lot Of grading down in that
section, and F. H. Lenstra is build
ing culverts in the same vicinity.
County Highway Commissioner Henry
Mink was down through that section,
last Wednesday, and Inspected all
the new work, going so far with his
Investigations as to get stuck in the
mud down in the Platte bottoms.
But the Ford gave a few husky snorts
and cleared the fOot-deep mud at q
bound, landing Henry on terra
frma, a wiser man on the subject
of Platte river muds.

GUERNSEY CATTLE MEN

Fred j. Granville, Lancaster state
bank, and Andrew Zenz went to Liv-
ingston on last week Tuesday, to at
tend the annual picnic and get-to-
gether of the Guernsey Cattle Breed
ers' association of southwestern Wis
consin. They report delightful
time, and say that the show was
worth going long way to see. AS
many as 200 persons were present.
and at noon the Ladies' Aid society
served SO lunches.
During the afternoon addresses
were made on subjects that are of in
terest to breeders of pure dairy stock.
George McKerrow talked on the pro-
position of community cooperation
in breeding and selling. Judging.
contests were had IN four classes, .for
boys and girls under Is. This,
feature was very much enjoyed by
those who were really wise to good
cattle breeding.
One OF the brightest remarks made
on the grounds was credited to Miss.
Nell Livingston, daughter Of County.

Lots Of Water.

These recent rains have played
havoc with crops in the bottoms Of
Platte river. Down in the north end
of Paris corn that was planted in the
bottoms has been under water, until
there is little show for a crop. And
the high water was in evidence in
Harrison, and in places in Ellenboro.

THE PHILIsTTNE rs NO MORE.

The Roycrofters print valedictory on
the work OF their founder the late Ebert
Hubbard, in the July number of the
Philistine and announce that the little
magazine has been discontinued after 81
years and one month of life, The skilled
men and women forming the colony at
East Aurora. n. Y, will work on under
the leadership of Ebert Hubbard, end,
continuing other characteristic publica-
tons of the Roycroft Shop but from SEN
timental reasons the Philistne dies with
its creator.
Fra Elbertus as he liked to call him self,
had told over and over the story of his
first rejected manuscript jccted by
editor after editor. until the author in
desperation bought an old press and a
case of type, set them UP on the barn
floor and proceeded to print what he
termed a periodical Of protest, it's dates
of publication to be every little while, I"
and it's name the Philistne.
The magazine was the first and most
successful of hundreds Of publications
that were recommended chiefly because
they were Of pocket size, and 1t always
appeared in covers of brown paper such
as is used in butchers shops. As the
Philistine grew in popularity it became a
regular monthly and in it appeared The
Message to Garcia perhaps the best
known of any of Ebert Hubbard's articles
Copy for the June number had been pre-
pared by him before he sailed on th'
Lusitania for a little journey that the
sinking Of the ship prolonged into eternity
