1t is very necessary that the appli

to hide away; therefore it will be well
to have someone assist by bending the
bushes over and holding them in that
position while the application is being
made.
Worms, slugs, green lice and the

You can do this just as easily and rap

uLTIMATuM ONE YEAR AGO.
French Commemorate Anniversary by
Resolving to Fight to the End.

ParisAOne year ago, on July %,
the Austrian ultimatum TO Serbia
which led up to the war, was deliy-
cred. The French press commemor-
ated the anniversary with articles
voicing the resolution of France and
her allies to carry on the war un-
swervingly. The Matin said:
Germany had reached the point OF
wishing to crush by diplomacy, if not
by force, nations unwilling to accept
her yoke. She was completely carried
away by the desire of domination, as
well as the mania which led her to
believe she could not exist without
uncontested superiority in Europe"

the pioneers at the Hotel Utah, the
grand revue of all nations at Liberty
