Potato Growers
Prepare to Fight
Potato Bug Army

Potato growers Of the county are
fortifying themselves against the
annual invasion Of the potato fields
by the potato bug army. There are
prospects OF a good potato yield this
year If conditions continue favorable
but tho enemy of the potato vines
has made his appearance in great
numbers. The common striped po-
tato beetle or potato bug" Is unus-
ually active. These pests have begun
to lay their eggs on the young vines
and soon there will be an army OF
young grubs. The grubs will strip
the plants Of all their leaves and
cause heavy damage IL the vines are
not sprayed at once.
The potato beetle can be easily
controlled by using q mixture of one
and q half pounds OF lead arsenate
powder to fifty gallons OF water.
Fgurink in smaller amount this
pound Of lead arsenate to twenty-five
gallons Of water. or three eighths OF
q pound to twelve gallons OF water.
Lead arsenate gets better results
and costs less than Paris green. In
spraying potato vines with any spray
material 1t Isl advisable to apply the
liquid in the cool Of the day. Put the
mixture on late In the afternoon or
in the morning. 1t will be only a
few hours until all the potato bugs
cease to work.
Tho potato beetle that does the
most damage is the small larva that
Is first seen working on the vines.
New broods Of these larva are hatch
ed every ten days so the grower needs
to keep close watch on his pota-
to patch.

MALT SIRUP GOOD AS
A SUGAR SUBSTITUTE
New Sweet Undoubtedly VIII

Every Household.
Has a Delicious Flavor Somewhat Re-
sembIing Honey, Which Adds
Greatly to It's PaIatability
and Value In Cooking.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Malt sugar strip is brand new
sweet which has arrived on CONNER
cial scale at the psychological moment
to relieve the sugar shortage, say the
specialists of the bureau of chemistry,
who have investigated various substi-
tutes for sugar. In addition to being
sweet, malt sugar sirup has deli
cious flavor somewhat resembling that
Of honey, which adds much to its pal
atability and value as a sugar substi-
tute.
While malt sugar has long been
known to chemists, Its production on
a commercial scale Is only beginning.
Two factors have stimulated its pro-
duction recently. The shortage of
sugar has developed a market for 1t,
and the recent prohibition law has
made available both the raw material
and the machinery needed for its
manufacture. Malt sugar strip Is made
from the same grains as beer and may
be made from corn or potatoes or any
plant containing starch. Barley, which
was used until recently in the manu-
facture Of beer, can be used now to
produce malt sugar strip.
Breweries, with very little change.
can be used and are now being used
for It's manufacture. Up to a certain
point the process for making malt
sugar sirup Is the same as the process
for making beer. Evaporating pans are
the. principal additional equipment re-
quired by breweries to become malt
sugar strip factories.
Malt sugar strip looks very much
like maple strip. 1t can be used for
everything that cane sugar is used for
While its use on the table may not be
quite as convenient as sugar, 1t is a
most excellent substitute for table use
when sugar Is not to be had, as 1t not
only provides sweetness but is equal to
sugar in food value. For cooking and
baking purposes and for making candy
1t is not only equal to sugar in con-
venience and food value, but is su-
perior for some uses because 1t will
not so readily crystalline.
Malt sugar sirup is now being sold
In large quantities to commercial
bakeries and candy and .soft-drink
manufacturers, who use 1t in place Of
sugar. The wholesale price as quoted
in recent advertisements In trade pa
pers and elsewhere is from Z to 8
cents per pound in barrel lots. Many
retail grocers do not handle 1t vet, be
cause there has been little demand for
1t on the part of housewives. Grocers
can now obtain it and no doubt will be
glad to do so as the demand for 1t in
creases. Housewives can well conserve
their dwlndling supply of sugar by
using it in cooking, baking and home
made corrections, and even on the
table for sweetening coffee, oatmeal
and desserts. 1t can be used for every
purpose for which sugar is used. If
the housewives want it, the grocers
will get it.
Although malt sugar strip is being

from any altrustic motive. They are in the game
to make money. And the renter pays the proht

TENANTS oUTNuMRER OWNERS.

The United States has fought all her wars to
preserve the home" and yet probably 60 per cent
of her people are tenants. This the text Sc
lected the other day by United States Senator
William NJ. Calder of New York In an address be-
fore the New York Real Estate associations con-
vention urging the necessity of a national cam.
paign for the creation of homes. He said
The object of each of our wars has BEEN In the
last analysis, to preserve the home. Yet we find
that to the majority of people In this country
home means little more than a dwelling for
which they are paying rent What is worse In the
situation is that the percentage of these rent pay
ers is growing.
"In 1880 we were advised that 50 per cent of the
people in America lived under the rental system,
in 1910 that the percentage had increased to 50,
and probably the census of 1920 will show that
fully 60 per cent of the people will be classed as
tenants"
Taxation on the Home.
The necessity for giving proper attention to real
estate taxation was brought to notice in a paper
by Harrison B. Riley, president of the Chicago
Title and Trust company, which was read at the
recent convention of the Real Estate Association
of the State of Illinois In Champaign In his paper
Mr.. Riley said
1T is undeniable that real estate and therefore.
the home Lseper, pays increasingly unfair
amount for the support of the government and
Tic SohNculchSc VI tuS peOpie. n lazy lnQluerenco
and stupid lack of intelligence in the levy and
collection of taxes must be corrected, so that real
estate bears only an equal proportion of the ex-
penses Of government and of civilization with
other classes of property.
Heretofore real estate has furnished over 80
per cent of the revenue needed by the state, the
several counties and the unnumbered municipal
and quasimunicipa corporations
Personal property, which equals or very likely
exceeds the value of real estate has escaped pay
ing any fair proportion of governmental expenses
Il suggest that the new state constitution shall
have only two restrictions the power of the
general assembly to levy and collect taxes-viz !:
That all taxes shall be equal and uniform.
1.-THE provisions for taxation and special assess
ment in the constitution should be so flexible
that property and earning capacity can be reached
and an income tax used as a substitute for spe
cifc taxes upon classes of property difficult to
reach or the value of which it is impossible to de-
termine except by an assessive body much too
heavy and too dangerous in character to be toll
