THE CIRCUS COMING
Rhoda Royal Big Three-Ring Shows
Coming to Punta Gorda

The circus is coming" is the de-
lightful shout of the small boy as he
gazes upon the big bills that an
nounces the date of the great tent
entertainment which is to in Punta
Gorda on Friday, November Goth.
The enthusiasm of the small boy is
shared by his elders, and when the
circus comes his father and mother
and sisters and cousins and aunts--
seven or eleven of them-will go
just to take that small boy to the
circus. They may, however, be eX-
cused when it is considered that the
Rhoda Royal big railroad show is
coming with an aggregation of ring
attractions and great geological col
lection from the jungles and forests
of five continents. There is large,
three-ring circus, a monster me-
nagerie which, by the way, is entirely
distinct and separate from the wild
beast show, which consists of all
kinds of savage brutes, exhibited in
startling performances, in huge

PUMPKIN BUGS IN GROVES.
Expert Tells How to Get Rid of
this Pest.

In the fall citrus groves are some
times infested with large green
bugs, called green soldier bugs or
pumpkin bugs" They puncture the
fruit, which turns yellow and drops
off the trees If punctuTed very badly.
Dropped fruit is dry and tasteless,
the juice having been sucked out by
the bugs Tangerines are the favo-
rite of the bugs, oranges come next,
while grapefruit is seldom injured.
The bugs usually get on to the
trees from cover crops left in the
grove or which have not been thor
oily cut.
Spraying is not recommend be-
cause the bugs are so large and
tough that sprays safe to foliage is
ineffective agaisnt them. Professor
]. R. Watson, entomologist at the
Florida Experiment Station, recon-
mends that the bugs be shaken off
the trees into muslin nets held be-
meath, The net with the bugs in it
| is dipped into a bucket containing
kerosene.
The net can be supported by
skeleton of telephone wire. It is
convenient to have handle extend
ing across the diameter with which
to handle it. A net three feet in df-
ameter and the same in depth is
large enough for ordinary purposes.
Large trees make necessary larger
nets.
Ordinary nets can be handled best
by two men. Larger ones need three.
The cost with the smaller net should
not be more than rs cents an acre for
ten-year-old trees set 20 by 20 feet
apart. This is considerably less than
it would cost to spray.
More detailed information can be |
obtained by calling upon the local !
county agent err by writing to the
Florida Experiment Station, Gains

PenrOse Aroused
by Tariff Bill
FINANCE CHAIRMAN RETURN
ING TO COMBAT EMER-
GENCY MEASURE.

Senator Bories Penrose, chairman OF
the finance committee, has notified
his colleagues here that he will return
to Washington next week to confer
regarding the emergency agricultural
tariff bill, which passed the house last
week under the impetus Of demands
of the farmers for protection against
falling prices.
Senator Penrose's sudden determin-
alton to come to Washington is re-
garded as certain Indication that he
is opposed to this emergency tariff
legislation and it is regarded as Ger
tain that he is leaving recuperatlon
headquarters at Atlantic City to do
what he can to prevent the passage
of the Fordney bill by the senate.
Friends of Senator Penrose say ne
is opposed to the republican party en-
tering upon what he terms an emo
tional career" to remedy every little
economic i'll that develops in the read
justment period by emergency leglsla-
ton. Mr.. Penrose, it is said, is against
any tariff legislation that does not
take into consideration the actual diff
ference between the cost of production
at home and abroad. The emergency
bill, in his opinion, is not tariff bill
and because its duties are so high, 1t
will result in retaliation.

higher intrastate passenger rates
Wednesday, when the Interstate Com
merce commission, by unanimous con-
sent, ordered the roads to raise their
rates to the level now prevailing in
interstate commerce. The new rate
will be 36 cents per mile, and must
be in effect by February 1, the COM
mission ruled. The present rate in
the state is cents per mile, while the
rate prescribed by Minnesota law is
2 cents per mile.
Determined to forestall any obstacle
in the path of the rate increase, the
railroads obtained from Judge Wilbur
F. Booth in federal court st. Paul, a
temporary restraining order. prevent

ERNEST GALLEA FILES AS CAN

IN FIRST WARD.

The local political situation assum-
ed an exciting turn last Saturday
when it became known that Thomas
Whittet, who had filed for Alderman
in the 1st, in opposition to D. L. Grim
minis had withdrawn his name
Mr.. Whittet gave no reason for his
withdrawal other than that he did not
wish to continue in the race. This left
the opposition without a candidate
However, Saturday afternoon the
friends of Ernest Gallea prevailed up
on him to cast his hat in the ring and
run against d. L. Crimmins This
means that the first ward will have
an interesting two cornered fight.
There has been some talk of bring
ing out another candidate in the 2nd
Ward, but so far W. S. Brammer has
the field alone. 1t was rumored that
Al. Vihstadt is considering on running,
but he emphatically denies having any
political aspirations. Filing closed
Monday.
The election will be held next Tues
day, January 4, and the ticket will
be, for Mayor, VIM. M. Smith;

Men Teachers in
State Increasing
RAPID ADVANCE IN NUMBER
SHOWN SINCE SIGNING
OF ARMISTICE.

Members of the state board of edu-
cation are wondering whether the
"schoolmaster" will again come into
his own in the states educational sys-
tenn. Figures compiled in the office of
J. M Mcconnell, state commissioner
of education, show that the number of
male teachers in rural and other
schools of the state is yearly increas-
ing, with the exception of war years,
when the number materially decreased
However, the number show rapid in
crease following the signing of the
armistice.
In 1862, this being the first year any
reports We're available, there were $50
men teachers and 800 women teachers
in the state instructing 32,500 children
in 585 schoolhouses dotted over the
entire state. The average monthly
wage was reported as being $19.38
for men and 1898 for women teachers.
Today the average wage for men
in high school and graded schools is
$1,000 and in rural schools 800 a
month. The average wage for women
teachers in high and grade schools is
$95 and in rural schools $75 month,

Charles Terhell Dead.

Charles r. Terhell one of Vesta
townships prominent farmers, died at
his home south of Vesta, Wednesday
morning at 7:30, aged 81 years.
Mr.. Terhell was born March 81,
1869 at Beaver Falls, Mimi; was mar
ried in the year of 1888 and settled
on a farm in Underwood township.
Some years ago he and his family
moved to Vesta, living here until he
moved to his farm south of town
where he resided up to the time Of
his death. He had been in poor health
for nearly year, and early this fall
he went to the Mayo hospital at Roch-
ester for treatment not receiving any
relief; he came home satisfied there
was no possible hope of his recovery
and gradually grew weaker until death
claimed him.
Mr.. Terhell leaves a wife, three
sons, two daughters, one brother and
one sister, Henry Terhell of Milroy
and Mrs. Henry Simondet of Redwood
Falls, and host of friends, who
mourn his demise.
He was a devoted husband and a
kind and indulgent father, and to his
friends, the soul of fellowship. He
believed that the man who scatters
flowers in the pathway of his fellow
men, who lets in to the dark places of
life the sunshine of human sympathy
and happiness, is following in the foot
steps of his Master. There was a
daily beauty about his life which won
every heart. He was conscious that
he was nearing the end, and appeared
fully impressed with the idea that at
the end of time eternity began, and
that the bright faith which sustained
him through those trying hours of
suffering would only grow brighter
as he journied toward the infinite,
where the gloom of death is dispelled
by the radiance of Gods love.
The funeral service will be held at
the home at one o'clock and at the
Presbyterian church at two o'clock
Friday afternoon, with Rev. Tolifson
of Lamberton officiating; the body
will be inferred in the Vesta cemetery.
The whole community extends SYM
pathy to the sorrowing family who
are bowed down with grief.-Vesta
Censor of December 16.
