PREDICTS GREAT FUTURE
Prominent Wisconsin Manu-.
facturer Visits Mines in
Baxter District

Henry Pierpont Hamilton, of
Two Rivers, Wis.,, during the early
part of this week was the guest of
ON. Bilharz, who showed his guest
over the mining district and
through his own mills and mines,
Mr.. Hamilton is vice president of
theHamilton Manufacturing COM
pany,l large manufacturers both of
printing Office equipment and
aluminium utensils. He is accus-
toned to seeing things done on a
large scale, but freely admitted
that he was surprised at the
wonderful development taking
place in this field now and strong
ly impressed with the prospects
for the future, particularly of Bax-
ter Springs. Mr.Hamilton was a
printer up in Minnesota before
he conceived the idea that he
could make something that all
printers would want and thereby
laid the foundation for his present
worlds business and large fortune.
Probably there is not a printing
office in the western hemisphere
and few in the world that do not
have some of the Hamilton goods
in heir equipment. Mr.. Hamil-
ton will likely become interested
here in a financial way.

Passed Worthless Check

J. w. Parks, who claims his
residence in Coffeyville, Kans.,
was arrested last week in Baxter
Springs, on the charge of giving
a $57 check to S. B. Schaefer,
drawn on a Galena hank, when
he had no funds in that institu-
ton. He was taken to the county
Jail in Columbus Monday, but
was brought to Baxter week
later and the case was settled
out of the court.
According to l.. M. Rusler,
assistant county attorney OF
Galena, the law provides that if
there was no intention to defraud
and if the party is willing to pay
up the amount and the cost
incurred, the court can abate the
case. This was just what was
done. Otherwise the penalty
would have been sameas larceny,
depending on the amount. In
February Parks and another
man drove into the Jefferson
Highway garage and had their
automobile fixed and bought a
new tire. He passed Mr.. Schaefer
the check for the $57 on the
Galena National Bank. The
check was returned marked, no
funds" From that time till last
week Mr.. Parks was carefully
watched by Mr.. Schaefer. When
he was seen in Baxter Marshal
Horton was notified and he plated
him under arrest. The prisoner
claimed that he had been trying
to make good. He had not how
ever gone further than that.

Swat the Potato Pests

Destroy the potato beetles by
spraying the plants with four
pounds of arsenate of lead paste
or one pound OF Paris green to
so gallons of water. In case
Paris green is used, one pound of
freshly slaked lime should be
added with every pound of the
poison. On a small patch the
adults may be picked of by hand
as they are attacking the newly
growing plants.
If the potato patch is small,
good results may be obtained by
busting Paris green or powdered
arsenate of lead upon the plants
by means of a perforated tin can
or a cloth bag. A heaping table
spoonful of either of these in
gradients should be mixed with
one quart of flour or slaked
lime and used while the dew is
still on the plants.
For foliage fungus disease use
bordeaux mixture spray 4-4-50
strength and prevent the cpl
demic. When the plants are
about a foot high start to spray
them at intervals of two weeks.
The earlier sprays are important.
This spray should be continued
well up to the Towering stage.
When spraying for the early
blight and the Colorado potato
beetle, use a combination spray
of Bordeaux mixture (4-4-50)
and three to four pounds of
arsenate of lead paste or one
pound of Paris green to so gallons
of water. When using Paris green
add an equal amount Of lime.
The flea beetles, which some
times do considerable damage,
may be controlled by the COM
bination spray if the under sides
of the leaves are also well
sprayed.
Certain potato diseases, such
as wilt and blackleg, cannot be
controlled by spraying. Growers \
should tear out suspicious look I
ing plants, otherwise these plants I
may form tubers which will
spread the diseases. y
