To The Democratic Voters OF
Montgomery County.

The undersigned, in the interest of party
harmony and for the purpose of avoiding
interparty strife which might endanger a
Democratic victory at the general election,
have decided to withdraw our candidates.
for nomination for the Offices of State
Senator and County Treasurer, to which
we had respectively aspired.
In announcing ourselves for these offices.
we were impelled by the desire to serve
the Democratic party and the people Of
our county and State and by the belief
that our candidates. would be acceptable
to the party and representative of large
body of citizens. We did so only after
mature deliberation and after the assurance
of support from many individuals and
many expressions of the opinion that the
people of the county should have the OPP
portHnity to exercise choice as to who
should represent the party in November.
1t has been demonstrated. however. that
we could win nomination only at the
expense of bitter primary fight. which
would almost certainly result in strife and
ill-feeling within the party. Rather than
assume responsibility at this time for such
contest, we have determined to place the
interests of the Democratic party above
our personal desires and ambitions and
withdraw our names. We do so with a
feeling of the highest appreciation of the
support pledged to US by many of the
voters of the county and desire them to
know that this decision on our part is
actuated by no motives except those here
in expressed.

During the electrical storm last SUNDAY
afternoon lightning set fire to the resi-.
dence ON the farm of Mrs. Catherine Case
near Germantown, causing total destruc.
ton OF the building. The house was un.
dersoins repairs and was unoccupied a,
the time. The loss is placed at $4,000
partially covered by insurance.
The Farm Bureau Supply Company, an
incorporated organization subsidiary to
the Montgomery County Farm Bureau
purchased two cars of binder Irvine, total
ing thirty tons, for this seasons use. Six
tons OF this was shared with the Howard
county organization. leaving twenty -four
tons for distribution to Farm Bureau men,
bers locally. While this was exactly double
the amount distributed last year, it did
not fully meet the demand. 1t saved be-
tween $500 and $1,000 to those who pur-
chased it, and probably as much more to
others by lowering and stabilizing the price
Throughout the county. The deal was an
entire success and real boost to the CO.
operative buying plans of the Supply Com
pany. Three carloads of fertilizer for late
potatoes have been unloaded. This is the
first fertilizer ever shipped into Monteom-
cry county accompanied by the formula
giving the number of pounds of each in
gredient used in each ton. The farmer
has been insisting for years that he has a
right to know exactly what he is getting
in the bag when he buys fertilizer. The
formula is of as much or more importance
to the farmer than the analysis.

PREVENT INJURY BY BORERS
Soap Wash Applied to Every Part Of
Tree Is Recommended as su-
perior to Spraying.

There are two borers which work on
apple trees-the round-headed apple
tree borer and the fat-headed borer.
They are quite common, and not many
orchards are free from them. The flat
headed bOrer makes tunnel between
the bark and the sap-wOod, and In
young orchards the trees are frequent
ly completely girdled. The round
headed borer Is perhaps the most
common. The young larvae bores
through the bark and for time works
just under the bark. After a year, If
they are undisturbed, they work clear
into the heartwood. These borers
work in trees from two to three years.
constantly making a larger tunnel.
Trees should be examined during the
fall and again during the spring for
cumming" or excreta. The gum
should be cleared away and then use
a knife rather sparingly and never
cut crosswise Of the grain of the wood
There are no sprays or washes, safe
to use, which will kill the borers in
the apple trees, but a good soap wash
applied to every part of the trunk of
tree will prevent the adults from lay
ing eggs on the trees and prevent the
larvae from boring In the trees. A
good wash is made as follows: One
gallon soft soap, one gallon hot water
and one-half pound carbolic acid this
should be stirred thoroughly, and af-
ter "a hours diluted with 80 gallons
Of water and applied as a wash. Some
make stronger solution by doubling
the amount Of carbOlic acid. The eggs
Of these borers are laid during June
and July. so 1t is important that the
wash be applied In time to prevent
the females from laying eggs on the
trees.
There are other borers which work
on cherry and peach trees. These
cherry-tree borers may be controlled
in same manner as the apple-tree
borer. These borers do not usually
become very numerous, but while they
are working they do considerable dam
age and some check should be put up
on their work. The peach-tree borer

The club was nearly deserted, for II

snores from shrOuded corner.
The snores annoyed Billy West

Resented Loss Of Mustache,

An amusing law case was that In
which Prague merchant named Bo,
rel claimed f250 from his former
friend, Dragone, for cutting of the
ends Of his mustache with a pair OF
scissors at carnival ball.
The plaintiff had cause to be proud
Of his facial adornment, which he de-
clared had no rival in oil Austria for
length and beauty. So horrible were
the effects of the mutilation that
since, like Samson, he was shorn, he
dared not show his face in public, and
his business suffered in consequence.
The court proved callous to Herr
Borel's woes. AS he was q married
man 1t declared the mutilation was no
obstacle in procuring a rich wife. He
had suffered no material damage and
not penny should he have.
