SANE FOURTH

Last February we prepared cir
cular letter addressed to wholesale
and retail dealers in fireworks, aG-
vising them of the state regulations
governing the storage of the same.
These letters were sent not only
to such dealers, but also to the papers
of the state and received wide pub
licity. An extra supply was sent
to each fire chief for distribution
among local dealers. Many COM
mercial clubs also sent copies to
their members.
This advice was sent out early to
head off purchasing of stocks which
could not be handled and stored legal
ly. Every dealer certainly should
be familiar with these regulations,
in force since September 1, 1918, and
ignorance cannot be accepted as an
excuse for any violation this year,
The regulation is as follows; i;
"Order 6095. No fire crackers,
rockets, torpedoes, Rontan candles,
bombs or other fireworks, and no pis-
tolls, cannons, explosive canes, blank
cartridges, or other similar appli-
.ances or displays, shall be stored in
a place nearer than 200 feet from a
Ineighboring building, except whole
sale storage in original packages.
Such fireworks, appliances, or dis
plays except rockets and Roman
Candles, shall not be discharged,
fired, or used within 200 feet from
any building. No rockets or Roman
candles shall be discharged within
SEQ feet from any building This
order shall not apply to fireworks dis
plays made under the direction of
town or municipal authorities, pro-
vided the same do not violate the
provisions Of Section 439Sf of the
tableau work and torpedoes, such as
no fire balloon shall be stored or
used under any circumstances"
I The only kinds Of fireworks not
covered by above regulations are
sparklers, colored fire as used in
tableau work and topedoes, such as
used by railroad men.
All other fireworks can only be
kept, stored and displayed IN a
building which is at least 200 feet
from any other brsldino.
Death, injuries and destruction Of
property in former years, due to in
discriminate storage and use of fire.

to get out their stump pullers and
keep them working. Many well known
specialists like Mr.. John Swenhert

of stump pullers this year because
the same amount of cash will clear

Fortunately the County or the farm
ers do not pay penny of expense in
this demonstration. If other Coun-

onstrations, the least we can do is
to attend when an opportunity Of the
kind comes.

SEVENTEEN YEAR
LOCUST Ape AIRING

MADISON-Wi sconsin's own brood
Of the seventeen year locust or
periodical Cicada, last seen in the
spring of 1905, is already appearing,
according to statment issued at
the Capitol today by S. B. Fracker,
entomologist of the State Depart
ment Of Agriculture.
The brood which was advertised
extensively b ythe newspapers two
years ago is the largest one in the
United States but specimens be-
longing to it are hardly ever found
in Wisconsin. The large outbreaks
in this state have previously been in
1883 and 1905 and the insects APP
pearing this year are from eggs laid
in 1905. The young Cicadas have
been living on the roots of trees or
shrubs the intervening period.
Apparently they succeeded in ex-
tending their distribution that year,
for specimens have already been re-
ceived from Lehigh, in Rusk County.
The brood which appears this year
is practically confined to Wisconsin,
Illinois, and Iowa but previously has
not been known north of Sank and
Richland counties.
These so7called locusts are not
relatives of grasshoppers and do not
feed on crops. The only damage
they do is that Of Sitting The twigs
of fruit and shade trees for deposit
ing their eggs.

vingin forest that once covered the
state. Those refugees of nature are
not now very extensive, and not all
are accessible by auto route, but those
that can be reached offer most de-

The travelling Land Clearing
Schools now being conducted in the
Upper Michigan Peninsula by Mich
igan Agricultural College are attact-
ing wide attention. Each county
subscribes $4,000 for each days dem
onstration within its borders, and
nearly fifty schools are scheduled.
AT many of these one day DEM
constructions three to five hundred
farmers turn out. They learn by
actually working with the various
tools and devices, and when the day
is over most of them have learned
more about clearing land than they
could have learned in months, work
ing by themselves.
New Development Shown
Farmers who have spent years
clearing land are surprised to find
that they, too, can learn new ways
that save them time and labor. Ore
man who had celared several acres
of partly rotted stumps learned a
little trick with the Root Hook that,
he says, would have saved him weeks
of labor.
Among the new devices that are
attracting attention are, Stump

To
Be Organizer
of Home Drive

Mrs. Mary B. Powers, chairman
for Salem in the campaign for the
children's farm home, announces
that William Hamilton will assist
her in organizing and directing
the work in this city.
I'VE are extremely gratified to
think that such busy man as MFR.
Hamilton is giving his time so
freely to this task" says Mrs. Ada
Wallace Unruh, campaign director
for the state in this project. AL
though under the direct care of
the Woman's Christian Temper
anee union, the movement for the
children's farm home is receiving
support from public spirited men
and women in all parts of the
state.
Miss Matte Beatty, a promi-
nent club woman of this city,
who is well known throughout the
state, has consented to present the
need for the farm to the women S
clubs of this district.
There are in Oregon an aston
ishing number Of children, who
are actually without home OF
care" says Mrs. Unruh. Many
of these have been deserted by
father or mother, or both, and if
left to themselves will drift God
knows where.
"They are here and we cannot
dodge the issue that they must be
cared for. If we let them go for
a while, We must care for them by
and by in institutions for the un-
fortunate at much larger outlay
than that which will give them
adequate care now.
IF We give little now, we can
send these helpless boys and girls
to home, which our generosity
has provided, where under the
care of motherly woman in real
home surroundings they can be
saved from shipwreck, and will
have Christian training and prep
aration for life to which every
child is entitled"
