CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE
CONTINUES STRONG

The Red Cross Seal sale continues
70 gain momentum as the organiza-
ton gets under way and people be-
come acquainted with the real work
that is being attempted by the same.
The school sale under Miss Me-
earthly is very promising of results.
Recorders from various schools in the
county are frequent and large and
many of the school children are al
ready qualified for honorable men,
ton badges and certificates. II al
so appears that the winner of the
gold ring for the largest number of
sales of any school pupil will have
TO work hard and constantly. The
badges are in the hands of Miss
Mccarthy and any teacher in the
county who reports any pupil who
has sold 100 seals will receive the
same upon receipt of such report by
her or by the county chairman L. Dee
Hallonee. Teachers are instruct
ed to send in the names of those
having badges coming in order that
they may be quickly sent TO those so
reported. Orders will be received at
snce for anyone who has sold 200
Of the seals for the three colored
certificate of honor which is being
given by the governor OF the state
and the president of the Iowa State
Tuberculosis Association.
The gold ring to be given as the
prize for selling the largest number
Of seals in the county will be seen
on display in the window of j. F.
Bakers jewelry store by those who
are interested. The ring to be
awarded IL the prize is won by boy
Is a solid gold signet ring and IL
girl wins. solid gold ruby set ring
in a Tiffany setting. The rings
are beautiful and are a fitting trib-
xte to the good work that the winner
Of the contest will have done in sell
ing the helath stamps in the county,.
Recorders by several of the wom-
ems clubs OF the county have come
to Mrs. Mallonee, chairman of sales
through that channel. Among
those ordering are Mrs. L. p. Ras-
mussen Of Brayton who wanted $40
worth more in addition to the $25
worth originally taken by her.
With the opening up of the coal
situation 1t now appears possible
that the communities, towns and
rural churches will be able to help
the sale by means or benefit festiv-
tiles An interview with Chairman
Marquesen on the subject reveals
the fact that plans are going for
ward in Brayton for such an event
under the leadership OF Mrs. L. p.
Rasmussen and also in Audubon.
Plans for these events will be an
nounced later. They will occur
some time during the holiday week
and II is to be hoped that the health
and cleanliness of this county will
profit from liberal patronage of
these delightful occasions.
The Columbian Club under the
leadership of Mrs. C. s. McLeran,
are pushing the stamp sale with
their characteristic vigor in Audu-
bon. Not a bazaar or public func-
ton at all adapted, but they are sell
ing seals and their sales are already
almost double the goal originally set
for themselves in this line. The
city OF Audubon may well be proud
Of such an organization as part Of
its club life. More like It would
be desirable Improvement.

REDUCE RAVAGES OF
CUCUMBER BEETLES
Many Farm Crops Are Attacked
by Injurious Insect.
1t Is by Far Most Common and De.
structVe Cucurbit Pest Farmer
and Gardener Have to Fight
-Larva Is Small Worm.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
Garden gumptiOn" will do more to
reduce the ravagcS of the striped GU
cumber beetle than open warfare
methods. In other words, prevention
is again more effective than cure.
Cucumber watermelon, squash, can
taloupe, beans, peas and other crops
are attacked by the cucumber beetle.
1t damages crops in all parts Of the
United States east of the Rocky Noun
tains, and is nearly always present
in the gardens and on the farms of
this area. 1t is by far the most COM
mon and most destructive cucurbit
pest the farmer and gardener have to
fight.
This insect is destructive in two
stages of its life-the larva or worm"
stage and the beetle stage, The larva
is a small threadlikc white worm with
dark-broWn head ana tail, which works
underground and -tuDnclS the roots and
stems Of the plants. 1t is by no
means as destructive as the beetle.
The beetle has a black and yellow
striped back when its wings are fold
ed, black abdomen, and yellow neck
and legs. 1t eats the leaves and stems
of plants and later gnaws the rinds
of the fruits and renders them I'M
marketable.
The principal injury is done by last
years beetles that have wintered in
the trash left in gardens and fields
and in dense weeds along ditch banks
and river bottoms. These beetles de-
YOUR the tender stems and leaflets Of
plants not yet fairly started. The
beetles are also carriers Of some plant
diseases.
There Is no specific remedy for the
striped cucumber beetle. Spraying will
destroy the beetles when they occur
in moderate numbers, but is not effec-
tive against large numbers. Since
the larvae live in the roots and stems,
principally underground, spraying will
not get them. Hence preventive meas
ureS must be practiced.

MAN LIVES A CENTURY
Activity Optimism and Temperance
viii Lead to Longevity.

WIN -SOA ~ Eb'lSSfIhJs
The wish of Abner Lincoln's friends,
often expressed, that he might live to
be 100 years old, has come true, the
former having just celebrated in Phil
adclphia the occasion of that many
years in the world. Mr.. Lincoln, who
is still going strong, has asked his
friends to raise the ante ten years
more now that he has passed the
century mark. Congratulatory letters
and birthday cards from China and
Korea were received by the aged man
on his natal day, while friends here
literally showercd him with flowers.
Asked for a recipe for such q long
life, Mr.. Lincoln replied that they were
activity, optimism and temperance,
with the accent on the last qualifica-
ton. Liquor never did good for any
one except as medicine" declares the
centenaran, land it has been the
cause Of great deal Of HARM"
Lincoln thinks that though prohibit
ton won't come in a day, it will ar
rive eventually. Awaiting that happy
time he is still tabooing tobacco and
alcohol, as he has done all his life,
and is eating his three squares day.
Though not directly related to Abra-
ham Lincoln, some connection exists
generations back. His grandfather
fought in the revolution and his
grandsons are veterans of the late
war. He was born in New England.
