The window-peeper, who has been

Gregorio has been creeping up to
the front windows of East Ohio ave-

peering into the rooms. A number
of women have called upon Chief
Parker to aid them in the capture of
the window-peeper, but all attempts
were unsuccessful.
Monday evening Chief Parker was
called to the home of Miss Elizabeth
Roberts 'on the corner of East Ohio
avenue and Mckenzie street. 1t was
not long until the man put in his ap.
pearance, stepping along lightly. Up
on no provocation whatever, he slid

made his way up to the porch of Miss

Quietly, Chief Parker stepped out
on the porch and made a lunge at
Gregorio who was. in his mind, max,

Miss Roberts parlor. The chief. led
the man up to the porch and there
flashed his light in the Italians face
and after Gregorio's Identification
had been certified, he was led to the
county jail where he is awaiting his

Leaving Loudonville, the Holmes
county men followed the tracks of
the yeggs automobile to spot the
other side of Amity where the road
turns to the right. The yeggs had
TUNED into this road and had then,
il, was thought, turned back The
party accordingly proceeded through
Anity and then experienced the
breakdown of their car in which con
dition the Knox county officials en-
ccuntered them.
Prior to leaving Mt. Vernon Sher-
III Woolison called Amity and was
there informed that party in a
Ford automobile had just passed
through the village, going at rather
a lively clip Ii developed later that
this party was composed of the pur-
suers rather than the pursued.
Reports from farmers along the
road from Amity to Fredericktown
had it that an automobile had been
both heard and seen in the early
hours of the morning driving along
the road at terrific speed. The com
hined party of Holmes and Knox
county men, excepting Chief Parker
and Officer Taylor who returned here,
Droceeded to Fredericktown, but the
trail was utterly lost and nothing
vas found or heard there of the
eggs.
The Holmes county men returned

again, while Sheriff Woolison and
Deputy Mossholder came back to Mt.

CONTROL INSECT PESTS.
Kansas State Agricultural College
Gives Advice to Farmers.

Prepared by Kansas State Agricultural
college.l
While the average Kansan has little
idea of where the insect pests spend
the winter. yet this knowledge. say the
entomologiSts in the Kansas State Ag.
ricultural college. is of utmost impor.
lance to the farmer in working out and
applying methods of control
The entomologists explain that most
of the insects in the winter season are
in state in which they are readily ac.
ceSsible to control and that generally
the best methods of control are con-
ducive to better agriculture regardless
of whether the insects are actually
present. This is particularly true of
means employed in DISCRIMINATING the
staple crop insects.
The staple crop insects-the field
crop pests-spend the winter in all
stages says James W. McColloch, as
sistant in entomology in charge of sta
pie crop insect investigatiou-"tha is.
one group Of insects may live through
the winter as adults, another may hi
bernate as larvae, ana still another
may exist in the egg stage"
The chinch bug, states Mr.. NcCol-
loch, spends the winter as an adult in
clump forming grass, such as blue
stem and bunch grass. Burning grass
is Il good practice.
The corn ear worm winters as pupa
in its pupal cell from two to six inches
below the surface of the ground. The
''haXseed'' or ucssian fly pupa may be
found in early sOwn or volunteer wheat
or in wheat stubbe. They are under
the sheaths of the wheat stock.
The gIasshopper remains in the egg
stage throughout the winter. The eggs
are in capsules at depth of from one
half to one inch below the surface of
the ground along the roadside, in al
falfa fields and in almost any unculti-
waited land.
Corn bill bugs pass the winter as
adults in the taproots of corn plants.

most important thing, and the one the
experiment station has always placed
stress upon, is the destruction of all
volunteer wheat" says George A. Dean,
professor Of entomology. -Four things
are emphasized: % the thorough prep
aration of the seed bed, (2) destruction
of all volunteer wheat, 60 late sowing
