SEEKS FOE OF JAP BEETLE
Specialist Has Been Detailed -
Bring to This Country Enemy Of
Horticultural Pest.

The Japanese beetle is going to have
Its old enemies on its trail in this
country. The United States depart
ment of agriculture has sent man to
Japan to find those enemies and send
them across the ocean. They will
then be established In the sections of
New Jersey where the beetle has
gained foothold. and they are ex-
pected to aid greatly In the control Of
the pest.
The agent employed in Japan Is
familiar with Japanese conditions and
is specialist In this kind of work. It
is expected that the task will require
his sojourn In Japan for two or three
years. While something is known OF
the parasites of the Japanese beetle
great deal Is still to be learned only
under field conditions where the
beetle lives with all the enemies that
prey upon 1t. The beetle reached this
country with importations OF green
house plants, and thus far apparently
has been comparatively free from mo-
lestations by natural enemies.

TREACHEROUS RIVER
TAKES ANNUAL TOLL
DEBORAH cox, Is, BOSCO-
BEL, DROWNED SATUR-
DAY WHILE BATHING.

The treacherOuS Wisconsin river
claimed another victim for it's own
last Saturday evening when Deborah
Cox, Is, daughter of Mrs Bertha Cox,
Boscobel widow, was drowned.
The little Cox girl with a sister
and little neighbor boy were bath
ing Off the bar below the toll bridge,
The story is that the boy, named
Guernsey, got into a whirlpool and
was unable to get out. The older
Cox girl, Mabel, went to his rescue
and succeeded in getting the youth
to the side of the bar but was unable
to push him up on it. Then Deborah
Cox endeavored to assist and was
pulled in drowning before aid could
be given. A man in boat is said to
have assisted the other children from
danger.
Searching went on all Saturday
night and Sunday dynamite and every
known means being used to bring
the body to the surface without avail.
The searchers gave up Monday stat
ing that the body would probably rise
by itself within a few days. In the
meantime a careful watch will be
conducted.
The spot where the Cox child
drowned has been the scene of sever
al other drownings some within re-
cent years. The bar is large and the
water gradually deepens toward the
channel But here and there are
holes and it is probable that the lit
tie girl stepped into one Of these.
LATER-The body was recovered
Monday two and one-half miles below
the scene of the tragedy. The funeral
was held yesterday afternoon.
