chautauqua will open m Princeton with
five-day program of especial in
terest. Lectures will be delivered by
some of the best speakers of the day
and the musical features embrace
entertainments by artists of pro-
nounced ability. Theobaldi, the fam
GUS violinist; Ewing's ladies' Zouave
band; Alma Huntley, solo soprano;
electrical demonstrations by Harvey
Starnes, and lecture by Mabel
Fletcher, Red Cross nurse, are among
the attractions on the extensive pro-
gram.
You cannot afford to stay away from
this chautauqua with its many enter
tanning specialties. See page adver-
tisement in this weeks Union for de-
tails.
The chautauqua will be on the north
east corner Of the court house grounds.

# good grade Of Paris green.

Of a good grade Of Paris green.
For the sucking insects, plant lice,
chinch bugs, etc., those that stick
their beaks into the plant and suck
the sap, kerosene emulsion is the most
effective remedy. Poisons like Paris
green are worthless for these insects
because they do not get any Of it
into their systems. The kerosene
emulsion sprayed on the insects kills
them by actual contact. It is made
by dissolving one-haf pound of soap
in one gallon of boiling water, adding
two gallons Of kerosene while still hot,
and churning the mixture for several
minutes. Dilute with from five to ten
parts of water before using, depend
ing on the type of insect to be de-
stroyed.
Boring insects, currant borers being
the most common, are the hardest to
kill, but fortunately are not very nu-
merous. An insect that has bored it's
way into the plant tissue can be killed
by fumigating with tobacco smoke or
sulphur.
Insects have great many natural
enemies that help to keep them in
check. Disease often kills large per-
centage of them. Certain insects, as
for example the tiger beetles or lady
bugs, will drive out harmful insects
where all human efforts have failed.
And perhaps the most helpful of all
are the native song birds.

MAKE IT A WINNER
Put Your Shoulder to the Wheel and
Assist in Making the County
Fair the Best Ever
No Reason Apparent Why the Dis
plays Should Not Excel Those
of Any Former Year.

The time is fast approaching for
holding Mile Laos county's big an
nual fair and the premium list APP
pears in this weeks Union-a list
which enumerates something like
$4,000 in premiums, or $1,000 more
than offered last year. After this list
had been placed in type, however, a
premium of $50 was added by the
business men of Princeton to be
awarded to the members of the Mile
Laos County Breeders association,
as follows: For dairy and beef calves
first prize in each of these two
classes, $40; second prize, 81; third
prize, IS; fourth prize, So. These
premiums will appear in the official
fair book, which will shortly be issued.
The management is putting forth
every effort to make the 1919 fair
better in every respect and more at
tractive than in any. previous year.
In addition to the large increase in
premiums the amusement features
will be excellent. For the latter pur-
pose 5000 will be expended for two
army planes, $3.50 for horse races,
1915 for free acts and $500 for ball
games, besides, Of course, smaller
sums for other attractions. A carni-
val will be among the amusement fea-
lures, and not least will be daily con-
certs by the Princeton band.
One of the army planes will take
up passengers, so that people will be
afforded an opportunity to sail over
Princeton and view the village from
on high. The other plane will be used
for demonstrative purposes.
There is no apparent reason why
the fair Of 1919 should not be the
banner rural agricultural exposition
of the state.
Farmers have the products and all
that remains is to place them on dis
play when the time arrives. An en-
deaver to outclass other county fairs
should be the aim Of every farmer in
this territory.
1t would be well to select exhibits
without delay and thus be prepared
to make entries on the first day-Aug-
ust ~.
Prepare to carry off some of the
premiums.

Surprise Party rendered Mrs. Almer.
A pleasant surprise was rendered
Mrs. N. A. Almer by the Ladies' Aid
society Of Greenbush at the last meet
ing OF. the society on July II, and a
purse Of money was given to her.
This is the second time the congrega-
ton Of Greenbush has thus remem-
bered the pastor and his wife since
they came here little over six months
ago. The pastor and his wife desire
to express their sincere thanks to the.
good people Of Greenbush, Princeton
and Zimmerman for the confidence,
and good will shown to them by all
since they commenced their work here.

Then came the fatal ninth and the
real fireworks of the day. Rush City
went out in order, the last two strik-
ing out, and it was up to Princeton to
win or. lose right there. Grow was
first up and thrown out at first on an
infeld grounder. The crowd began to
crank up their "Universals" prepara-
tory to conceding the game to the
visiting athletes. Big Bill Beckett,
in an ugly frame of mind, with vic
tory slipping rapidly out of his grasp
and defeat looming largely before him,
smote the ball for ripping single.
On hit and run signal Bill tore for
second. The hit part of the play went
sadly awry but the run part worked
to perfection and Bill went sliding into
second, safe a mile. The Princeton
cohorts woke up and gave an exhibit
ton of 18th hour roofing that would
have shamed a Harvard roofing Sec
ton. Doane was hit with pitched
ball and was ordered to first. The two
bad Bills then worked a double steal
and got away with it. A runner at
third, another at second and only one
out. One run to tie and two to win.
It looked good to the home crowd and
pandemonium broke loose. Once
more the Princeton stock jumped sky
wards. Nutshell made the second out
without getting either of his team
mates in and the hopes Of victory
began to go glimmering again. Galley
was next man up and he STROBE up to
the plate with all the confidence of the
famous Casey of Mudville fame. Pet
erson worked two strikes over on the
big fellow and had him in a hole. He
then proceeded to work him to hit at
wide one, but the big sea captain
kept his nerve as when in days of
old he trod the deck Of Uncle Sam s
fighting ships looking for some of
Pirate Bills undertheseaboats to sink.
The situation finally simmered down
to two strikes and three balls, and
both pitcher and batsman were in a
baseball hole. Peterson took a chance
and stuck one right down the center
with all the speed he could get on it,
and Galley just as promptly countered
and sent the ball pirouetting to right
center for clean single. The two
Bills tore for home, Beckett with the
tieing run and Doane with the winning
run about two jumps behind him.
Both were safe and the game was
over, to 5 for Princeton. Curtain
and loud applause from the assem-
bled multitude)

Tom Schall Comes to the Rescue.

Failure Of children in school for
lack of sleep, owing to late retiring
because Of the daylight saving law,
interruption of work for the farmer
and difficulties of the miners in get
ting their proper rest have convinced
Congressman Tom Schall that the law
named does not work out right, and
therefore, as member Of the rules
committee of the house, he has pre-
pared another law which covers the
points in that which the president re-
Gently vetoed. Talking of other mat
tiers Mr.. Schall said:
"The league of notions is intended
to keep US out of war and for that
reason has many adherents. AS
matter Of fact it is the most imperial
.istic document ever written and will,
when ratified, bring us shortly into
the % wars which at present are be-
ing waged in Europe.
It is indicated that the president
has seen the light on the Mexican sitl !.
alton during his stay in Europe, where
he had more ample opportunity to
learn the opinion of Great Britain and
France as to the exact conditions south
of the Rio Grande. Carranza contin-
|ues to defy and ignore the United
states, with his agency in New York
to deal directly with those who have
claims in Mexico, regardless of the
fact that this agency has not been
recognized by the state department.
pledges of protection of life and
property continue to be disregarded
and with extensive propaganda the i'm
preston is conveyed that Carranza
has the situation in hand, yet the
facts are that less than half Of Mexico
is under his control.
whatever means the president
may decide on to clean up the muddle
will doubtless make plain to the world
that colonization and exploitation have
no part in the motives of the United
States Mexico cannot or will not put
her own house in order, and if we are
to live in peace we will have to do it
for her. The job is beset with enor-
nous difficulties, not the least of which
will be the animosity and tempera-
ment of the people themselves. But
it is not job that we can afford ia
shirk simply because Of this Difficult
ty.'

Frank Smith Dead.

I Frank G. L. Smith, following an ILL
ness lasting many months, passed
away at his home in Princeton on
Thursday morning, July II, short
time after IL o'clock. His death had
been expected for some days.
Short funeral services were held at
the residence on Saturday morning at
$3.50 by Rev. w. B. Milne and the re-
mains were taken to North Branch,
his former home, for interment. On
Sunday services were held at that
place.
Frank Smith was born on July II,
1849, at Yorkshire, N. Y, and conse-
quently at the time of his death was
20 years old, he having died on the
anniversary of his birthday. He is
survived by his wife, Mrs. Elvina
Smith; three sons, Henry L., Duluth;
George W., Canada; Frank L., De-
troit; two daughters, Mrs. C. Sun
bloom, Duluth, and Miss Elinor E.
Smith, Princeton. He also leaves one
brother, Hames Smith of Harris. De-
ceased came to Minnesota 60 years
ago, settling at North Branch, where
he lived Is years. From there he and
his family moved to Princeton, where
he lived until the time of his death.
Frank Smith was man who could
count his friends by the score. He
was kind husband and father and a
man Of generous disposition hun
cry man ever asked for food at his
door and was turned away.

Injurious Insects and Their Control,

Injurious Insects and Their Control,
Many new and exceedingly injurious
insects have been introduced in this
county within the last few years that
require extremely drastic measures
for their prevention and control. The
comparative exemption from pests in
new farming communities last only a
few years in spite of all measures to
keep them out. It is almost impossi-
BILE to Identify all the insects that are
apt to trouble the plants in any To-
cality, but they can easily be grouped
according to ways in which they at
tack a plant, and each group can be
checked in the same way. For lack of
better name these groups are classi-
fed as chewing, boring and sucking
insects.
The chewing insects, potato bugs,
grasshoppers, locusts, ETC., those that
eat the leaves Of the plants, can be
quite easily killed by arsenical poisons
placed on the leaves of the plants.
The great problem in dealing with this
class is to find something reasonable
in price that will hold the poison on
the leaves and prevent burning. Paris
green, lead arsenate, zinc arsenite and
calcium arsenate are commonly used
for chewing insects, especially potato
bugs. All Of these poisons contain
the same arsenic poison but in differ
ent proportions. Paris green contains
SO percent arsenic poison, lead arse.
nate SO percent, zinc arsenate 40 per-
cent and calcium arsenate 43 percent.
From this it will be seen that Paris
green contains about twice as much
arsenic as lead arsenate, and there
fore ought to be worth twice as much
per pound. But Paris green has a bad
habit of washing off THE leaves. Ex-
periments have shown that zinc arse
mite will stay on the leaves Of the po-
tato plant SO times, lead arsenate 60
times, and calcium arsenate seventy
four times as long as Paris green.
Although Paris green is the cheapest
poison considering the actual amount
of poison it contains, yet calcium arse
nate, due to its adhering qualities, is
the cheapest poison for the farmer to
use for potato bugs. Furthermore,
it is not so apt to burn the vines. OF
course q poor grade Of calcium arse
nate cannot be expected to do the work
