Blows Aimed at Mayor.

Sundays demonstration of the
mayors lack of patriotism and open
expression of his "kaiserlsm," how
ever, found definite reply from nu-
merous sources. The growing disap-
prevail of Thompson was given voice
In numerous quarters. ~
The city council will meet In special
session to consider resolutions thank
ing Governor Lowden for his prompt
action in dlspatching troops to the city
to override the mayor,
Officials of the Chicago chaDtar of
the National Security league will meet
at noon to try to find some way of eff
fectively curbing the mayor for all
time.
The Hamilton club, of which the
mayor is member, will meet to take
action indorsing the governor and CEN
surfing the mayor.
A special meeting of the state coun-
ell of defense Is in prospect for the lat
ter part of the week, with view of
providing ways and means of ending
seditiOus meetings. The citizens war
board Is also planning action.
Adjutant General Dickson and
Sheriff Traeger were on the lookout
only for public meetings.
The sheriff early in the morning
conferred with the adjutant general
and they laid plans for covering the
numerous picnics and Labor day cele-
brations. At nightfall they announced
all was quiet.

The governor was in the city early
and left before noon for Ottawa to
make an address. He returned late In

That the governor has full author

said.
IF in his judgment any meeting

for bloodshed. No person in the state
can step between him and that author

In some quarters the stand was
taken that the mayor was guilty of
palpable omission of duty by his fail
ure to suppress the pacifist meeting
and through his action In ordering the
police to permit 1t after the governor
had ordered that no such meeting be
held In the state. 1t was charged he

ner, appointed temporary command
ing officer of the seven selected men
who left Oskaloosa at noon for the

vided by Uncle Sam.
The boys were in the best of spiI-
its, although they looked upon the
leaving as an epoch of their lives.
Not downcast, but smiling, they bid
friends and relatives farewell.
Just how long the Selects" will

in training at least six months.

poisoned bran into dough with the syrup, scatter this mixture around the hills where cut worms have been workino, along fence rows where they usually emerge.
 Cabbage worms can be con- trolled by using applications of l ounce of arsenic of lead paste or E ounce of the powder of arsenic of lead in gallon of water. To this 1t is advisable to add about T ounce of any kind of soap in order to make the solution stick to the cabbage leaves. Apply ever 10 days until two weeks before using. If the outer leaves are discarded there is no danger from the poison.
 For potato bugs, dust the pota- to vines as often as necessary with mixture of 1 part by weight, of Paris green to 24 parts of lime dust, or better than this. if one has the means of applying the pioson in liquid spray, is a mixture consist ing of ounce of arsenic of lead paste, or 2 ounce of the powder and "A ounce of Paris green =in a gallon of water. This mixture should be applied about ever ten days.
 Cucumber beetles, rather small and lemon yellow in color, with three white stripes down the back, are usually a great menace to growers of squash, melons, cucum- bers and related plants. They should be controlled by dustine with arsenic of lead or by spraying using 12 pounds of powder or pounds paste and 50 gallons oi water. About 2 pounds of soar should be added to make the spray stick to the plants.
 Plant lice should be controlled most conveniently by spraying witt one of the nicotie products founc on the market. Black Leaf 40 is the most common product known in Arkansas.

PEOPLE PAY ATLANTA FIRE JOSS.

The insurance companies are not going to pay the three or more million dollars representing the fire loss in the big Atlanta conf1agtion which happened Monday of this week.
 Three million or more dollars worth of property was wiped out and not cents worth of the loss was covered by insurance. Mill ions of dollars will be paid back to the owners of the property by in surance companies. but this is a good time to emphasize the fact. says J. s. Speed, the Arkansas fire prevention and insurance expert, that the insurance companies do not furnish the money to pay the losses and that no loss is covered by insurance.
 The loss is paid by the public and the burden is distributed over the shoulders of many people by the insurance companies. If it were not for insurance the people of Atlanta would be crushed by the burden concentrated upon them alone. But when three million dollars worth of property-the fruit of human energy-is wiped out of existence three million dol lars in gold might as well be buried in the middle of the Atlantic.
 When, oh when, will the Ameri- can people learn this lesson?

PLANT MORE SWEET POTATOES.

Every farmer in Arkansas should plant more sweet potatoes, . says J. s. Knox, horticulturist with the Extension Division of the Uni- versity. An acre or two of sweet potatoes should be grown or at least enough to supply the family for the winter and early spring. There is still time to start crop of sweet potatoes and it will pay every farmer to make a special eff fort to grow good supply since the prices will, undoubtedly, be better than in years. There has been some difficulty experienced by few in storing their sweet po- tatoes so that they would keep throughout the winter, but there is no need of loss if sweet potatoes are handled properly and at sweet potato digging time information concerning the proper storage can be had without expense from the Extension Division.
 SAVE THE SURPLUS.
 Save the surplus every day, even though that surplus be but a pint of beans, peas, or anything else which can be used for food next winter" says Miss Emma Ar cher, state home demonstration agent with the Extension Division. Every effort should be made to can such vegetables as beans, egg plants, beets, carrots, okra, peas, squash, sweet corn, peppers, etc. 7 Drop a card to Miss Archer, old state house, Little Rock, and in- formation concerning canning and preserving food stuffs of all kinds will be furnished to any woman in the state. Get your canners ready.
 DESTROY GARDEN PESTS.
 Do not let the insect pests ruin your garden or truct crops. Your vegetables are too valuable Destroy these pests as soon as they appear says Geo. c.

Gut worms are best controlled by using poisoned bait consisting of pounds of wheat bran with which has been thoroughly mixed 2 ounces of Paris green and l cup ot cheap sugar.
