THE GREAT WAR HAS MADE CIGARETTES A NECESSITY.

"Our boys must have their smokes. Send them cigarettesl" This is familiar appeal now to all of us.
 Among those most in demand is the now famous toasted" cigarette LUCKY STRIKE. Thousands of this favorite brand have been shipped to France. There is something home- like and friendly to the boys in the sight of the familiar green packages with the red circle.
 This homelike, appetizing quality of the LUCKY STRIKE cigarette is largely due to the fact that the Burley tobacco used in making it has been toasted. "Its toasted" was the 'tslo- gan" that made a great success of LUCKY STRIKE in less than a year. Now the American Tobacco Co. is making Is million LUCKY. STRIKE Cigarettes day.
 A good part of this immense pro duction is making it's way across the wa-er to cheer our boys. The Red Cross has distributed thousands of LUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes.

THE ENEMY OF SHADE TREES
 CATERPILLARS COME EARLY

Residents of Hills Flat report that the caterpfllars have appeared in the shade trees earlier this year than usual, and where not molested are going great damage to the foliage, which is now tender morsels for those destructive parasites. The Copper Era has been requested to sound a note of warning to the citizens and property owners of Clifton against this foe to the trees.
 It is said that the caterpillars gen. orally appear in this section early in the fall, when foliage is full grown and nearly ready to drop; when it has served it's purpose in giving the tree fife and vitality. At such times the insects do little or no harm. Or at least the damage is negligible. But when they make their appearance early in the spring at this time of the year, when the trees are emerg- ing from heir winters sleep, while the foliage is young and tender, these parasites often sap the very life from the trees, causing them to die.
 Fortunately the pest is not hard to get rid of. A coal oil torch and a long pole will effectively rid the trees of this deadly parasite. One or two residents of the flat have already ap- piled this remedy with apparent good results, and others can emulate their example with profit. It is hoped that every. one who has nice shade trees on their premises will get their torch to working at once and save the beau tiful trees of Clifton from the ravages of this deadly foe to the cottonwood.
 In his climate, where trees are so scarce, the cottonwood is one object most admired by every one who visits Clifton. If they are allowed to die this beauty spot in the valley will have passed for many years, as it will take some time, and lots of attention, to replace them.
 The caerpillars are easily killed. Just light your torch and place it under their nests. The blaze will burn them and render them harmless One who has tried it said he destroy ca nearly four gallons one day this week. Destroy this enemy to the trees before he destroys the shade. Immediate action is essential.
