Save the Birds, is Plea

Chas. Schroeder is of the opinion
that the use of poison to rid the
fields of the grasshoppers is an ex-
pensive practice. He admits that the
poison will get rid of lot of de-
structive grasshoppers but it also
kills off thousands of the finest lot
of birds the community could wish.
The larks and robbins are especially
beneficial for the fields as they de-
your insects in large quantities. and
the poison out for the hoppers causes
the loss of these birds.
Mr.. Schroeder says that if the dis
trict is to be free from the hopper
pests the field corners. ditch banks
and other weed-infested places on
the farms must be burned and clear
ed off in the fall and thus lessen the
chances of the grasshopper eggs from
maturing. These pests also lay their
eggs in the fields where there is pro-
lection and to aid in exterminatins
the eggs the alfalfa fields snouid be.
Mr.. Schroeder contends. disced or
renovated each fall. Discing the al
falfa fields both ways is recommend
ed by the Agricultural college as a
means of loosening the ground and
conserving the moisture. aside from
the good effects 1t has on opening
the ground to let the air into any
grasshopper egg nest.

Beach
Draws Crowds

The bathing beach on the west side
of Lake Meredith has become some
what popular place for the people of
Sugar City, and a number from Ord
way have been taking advantage of
the swimming facilities on various
occasions.
Sugar City people have been fitting
up the beach until it is very attrac-
tive place and it is likely that quite
a large number of Ordway people will
Join in and in time develop a lake
resort which will be most inviting.
Boating and swimming is an ideal
sport and this beach is such as to
provide these in proper fashion with
very little expense. The place is cas-
lily accessible as cars can be driven

Major Newton Home

Major Paul p. Newton arrived at
his home in Olney Springs the latter
part of last week after about three
years in army service. He spent a
good share of the time in France.
Major Newton has the honor and
distinction of being the only officer
of that rank from Crowley county or
from this part of the state. He had
served with the National guards on
occasions prior to the European war
and gained the commission of cap
tain. After entering the service for
the world war engagement he was
soon promoted to the rank of major.
Major Newton arrived in the United
States about a month ago and visited
in the east. Mrs. Newton met him
and they made visit in Missouri

when the worms were nearly
grown. we tried Paris green, arsenite
of zinc, arsenate of lead. arsenate of
calcium and arsenate of magnesium,
in the proportion of 4 pounds of the
poison to 100 gallons of water, and
also Paris green pounds to 100 gal
Ions of water, and in every case with
excellent results within "a hours. I'm
der one beet plant 366 dead worms
were counted 81 hours after the ap-
pIication was made. Very little diff
ference could be seen in the effect of
the different poisons used. The two
Paris green applications seemed
equally effective and a little quicker
in their action, and possibly a little
more efficient than the other poisons
used. tho all gave excellent results.
1.-The worms began going into the
ground to spin their silken tubes, In
which they change to the moth stage,
about the fi,s of July. About the
first of August the millers may be
looked for again flying about the
lights at night and about the sweet
clover blossoms and other flowers
during the day, at which time they
will be laying eggs for another gencT-
alton of the worms.
The August brood is often more
numerous and destructive than the
late June brood, so close attention
should be given to the appearance OF
these moths again and the beet grow
ers should be prepared with poison
and spray pumps with which to treat
their beets promptly when the next
brood appears.
"The almost complete absence Of
IL,
indicates that the August brood may
be very numerous and severe. Thoro
cultivation of fields whore the worms
have been abundant will disturb and
kill many of the worms in the resting
stage"

determined to win and the teams are
equally enough balanced to make it
an "even bet' for anyone. Local
players have set their heads for a
shut-out, and what the visitors have
set out to do has never been made
known, but it is safe to say they are
coming up to make a grand wallop
If ever they made one. 1t was a
clean game which was played with
Sugar City the last time and each
side intends to play just as clean a
game this coming meet. Such games
make big gate receipts, for people
like to see ball when it is played
like the games have been so far in
the county leauge.
Shaffer's home-run in the eighth
was the feature of the game here last
Sunday with. olney Springs. Shaffer
got two hits and Pyles one. Clay
baugh, of Olney, got a two-base hit
in the seventh. Flynn made a spec
