Mrs. Alex G. Cochran has a pet
hen which she may justly feel proud,
one Of the Plymouth Rock variety,
says the Aroostook Republican. This
hen has laid for 10 consecutive days
a four-ounce egg, it taking four to
the pound. After stopping for two
days the hen has commenced again
to lay another 10. These eggs are
all double yoke. This biddy is one
for several weeks after being
Matched. Mrs. Cochran took good
care Of it, and Mrs. Hen is now re-
turning the compliment.
They are saying over st. John
way that the cargo of deals which the
Gardiner G. Deering is about to take
out from Sheet Harbor, N. s., to some
port in Ireland is the heaviest cargo
Of lumber ever shipped out of the
Maritime Provinces. The Deering is
pretty near the heaviest craft that
ever sailed out Of that part of the
world and may well take the heaviest
load.

CONTROL OF GARDEN INSECTS
Spraying With Solution Of Arsenat'

Bugs or Beetles.

Spraying with arsenate of lead will
control potato bugs or beetles. This
poison solution is made OF one pound
of arsenate of lead to ten gallons Of
water. with little laundry soap added
to make the solution stick TO the
leaves. Cucumber, muskmelon and
squash beetles may be controlled by
busting the plants with air-slacked
lime mixed with lead arsenate powder.
When plants Of any kind are attacked
by lice Black Leaf 40 is generally
used. Arsenate Of lead and Blacl

DEPORTED SOVIETS
RESTLESS IN RUSSIA

Washington, Dec. 11.-Members of
the party deported nearly year ago
on the Soviet ark" Buford, with
Emma Goldman and Alexander Berk-
man, have attempted to blow up Of
ficials of the Russian Soviet govern
ment, according to information re-
ceived today at the Department of
Justice. The advices said Marcus
Crodowsky and Arthur Katjes were
in Jail at Moscow for attempting to
plant bombs in building occupied by
the general executive committee Of
the Soviet government there.
Schabl, formerly head of the Union
of Russian Workmen, the reports said
had been killed by the japanese in
Siberia while engaged in railroad
work there. Peter Branky was re-
ported to have entered the ranks of
the Communist party and to be as
ISOLATED with the international pro-
paganda bureau at Petrograd. Hyman
| Perkins was said to be employed in
Odessa, both the Schatz brothers in
Kiev, Kushneroff working in the
Soviet bureau in Moscow and Paul
Kovaloff working on a tug boat near
Petrograd.

practically all Of the low grades Will
be handled in this manner.
The cost of putting tobacco in a
hogshead is about 50 a hundred
pounds. The. matter of cutting out
next years croy will depend upon the
amount of tobacco sold in this dis
trict this season. II is probable that
this question will not be considered
for several months.
Warehouses Not to Close.
None of the owners of the loose
eaf tobacco warehouses of greensboro
has showed any inclination to close
pending the organization of the pool,
and the floors will again be open on
Monday morning.
AS soon as Daviess County is or
ganized, the campaign will be extend
ed to the other counties in the Green
River district and in Southern In
diana counties. The executive COM
mittee of the association has been as
sured Of 900 by local interests
for the handling of the pooled crop.
This, together with the money that
will be derived from the sale OF the
high grade tobacco which is expected
to average more than SIS hundred
pounds, will go a long ways toward
tiding over the growers for another
year, and until the priced tobacco is
sold. 1t is estimated that at least
10000, 900 pounds of the S40,O00,OOO
pounds in the Green River district
should sell for an average of SIS per
hundred pounds, which would mean
S1,500,O00. This, with the $780,
900 that will be advanced by local
interests, will mean $2,10O,O0O for
the growers. A feature of the meet
ing today was the lack of any sign of
disorder or threats of any character.
