FARMERS TODAY
NO MARKS" FOR
THE BUNCO men

There was day, years ago, when
the farmer was considered inexperi.
enced in matters of business and a
mark" for the bunco man. Editor
ial writers on city newspapers fire.
Cslently published warning to the
farmer to beware of the gold brick
salesman. And even now this idea
about the farmer seems to prevail in
some quarters.
Just why warnings should be ad-
dressed to farmers rather than to the
residents of the metropolitan districts
never has been made clear. The mod.
ern bunco man sticks to the city, for
the most part. He gave up trying to
gull the farmers years ago.
Many stocks are offered in ex-
change for Liberty oBnds and War

a basis.
We believe the farmers of America
can be relied upon, however, to hold
their government securities and be
content, in the main, to draw a safe
and secure rate of interest rather than
to take chances on private securities
that may turn out as a total loss ol

Where Were the 1919 Potato Aphlds ?

In 1918 the potato fields over large
areas in Aroostook County were so
heavily populated by plantlice that the
migrating swarms late In the summer
few about in thick clouds. In 1919
these same insects over much of the
same area have been so scarce that 1t
would take days collecting to 1ll
vial with them.
The Maine Agricultural Experiment
Station has given good deal Of atten-
ton to the potato aphid. Bulletin 242
published in 1916 contains full account
of this pest, its migrations and Its host
plants. Briefly stated the life cycle of
the pink and green potato aphid Is as
follows: The insect over-winters on the
rose in the egg stage. The first two
spring generations feed upon the rose,
the second of these developing wings
and migrating to various plants for the
summer,-in Maine the most significant
of these being the potato. Upon the
potato the pest passes through several
generations and is 80 prolific that, In
seasons favorable for It's development,
it multiplies to Incredible numbers.
Late in the summer winged individuals
leave the potato for the rose bush, where
q generation of males and egg laying
females is produced and the over. winter
ing eggs deposited on the rose bushes
thus beginning the cycle again.
The question which has interested
potato growers in Aroostook, entomolo-
gists who we're watching the situation,
and dealers who expected to sell sphid
spray by the profitable gallon: the ques.
~ q int 10 uhot haoorno of fhoon
aphids? Were there too few roses with.
In flying distance of potato fields to pro-
vide suitable nutriment for the hordes
of 1918 fall migrantsP
Did such predaceous insects as syrphus
msggots and Lady beetles eat largely OF
the fall generations, lie in wait during
the winter, and devour the early spring
colonies before the migrants could return
to the potatoes? Did the ever hungry
chickadee nip of the shiny black eggs
during the winterp Did fungus disease
attack over crowded colonies on the rose
last fallp Have weather conditions
(always . vague factor to define but
often potent) been Overwhelmingly nm
favorable to potato aphids?
Doubtless the answer would be Eyes"
to more than one OF the foregoing ques-
tions.
AT any rate, whatever the cause, there
is reason to congratulate everyone except
the insecticide dealers on the fact that
the aphid was, comparatively speaking,
q very rare animal in potato fields this
season. The damage done directly by
aphids feeding upon the potato vines
during 1918 was Of serious Importance
and what Incidental havoc they created
BY spreading potato diseases may have
been Of as much II not more economic
signiflcance.

basis OF 1919 that these small though
prolific pests will get headway enough
for several years to como to enable them
to 60 out on q rampage comparable to
that Of year ago.-Chas. D. Woods,
Director.

DR.. Crane Saws

Thrift is simply the application Of
intelligence to expenditure.
1t does not mean only saving. 1t
does not connote skimping and penny
pinching, niggardliness and miserli-
ness. That is often the most foolish
kind of waste, waste Of health, of
sepirits and Of the poy Of life.
Thrift means intelligent spending.
To spend a dollar now may save
two dollars next month.
Thrift implies a budget. If you
have no wise plan, it makes little diff
ference how much you make. What
is the use Of forging ahead when you
don't know your destination?
Some busy money-makers might
sing with Mr.. Dooley, I'VE don't know
where we're going, but we're on our
way"
Thrift implies foresight. 1t means
we can see tomorrow as well as to-
day.
1t is the opposite of childishness.
The child can grasp only what Is be-
fore him. He cannot realize the fu-
ture. He wants what he wants when
he wants it." If he had no older
heads to think for him he would, like
the grasshopper. dance all Summer
and starve all Winter.
TIE savage eats when he finds
meat. He gorges and sleeps, and be-
tween times starves. The civilized
man lays up. In abundance he pre-
pares against famine. He builds
barns and warehouses.
Thrift implies self-control. We are
masters of self, not slaves of self.
Thrift implies self-respect. We do
not wish to become a burden upon
others.
Hence we lay up something for our
lean days.

CAMP FIRES FIRST
SIGNAL OF ARMISIICE.
LIEUT.. STUART STEPHENSON
SAYS THAT SENSATION WAS 8
UNDERSTANDABLE.

Lieut.. Stuart Stephenson was at an
advanced position far ahead of the
army to which he was attached when
the armistice was signed and did not
know of the good news until that
night when he saw camp fires along
both lines, according to letter from
him to his father, John S. Stephen
son. Lieut.. Stephenson said that the
feeling that came over him was indie
scribable. For many nights he had
been working near the front lines d.
recting the transportation of supplies
in utter darkness and he had no in.
formation about the forthcoming arm
istice. Then to- see the fires boldly
lighted on both sides gave him
thrill that he will never forget. He
was in the Verdun sector.
This was the. first letter received
from Lieut.. Stephenson in many
months, although he said that he had
been writing regularly. He had moi
heard from home since he reached
France.

at those places were addressed and
much interest shown. Plenty of pig

reason they much prefer the pig work
although Mr.. Mclean is still deter
mined to make the corn clubs sue

This was Miss Shadows first APP

a splendid impression. The young
girls were delighted ana heartily
pledged their cooperation in her
poultry and canning work. She was
exceedingly we'll pleased over the re-

ever delighted with this county.

which will especially interest banks
