IN MEM0RIAN

In loving remembrance OF my hus-
band. Kinsey Williams, who died tive
years ago today, January ).
Oh the misery of that morning.
As we stood beside his bed.
knowing death had stolen upon him,
And we knew his soul had fed.
Just two years ago we laid you to rest.
And folded your cold hands upon
your breast;
In silence you suffered, in patience
you bore,
Until God called you home to suffer
no more.
Some where in the land of flowers,
Just hevOng the gate of tears;
My husband waits for his companion,
Who is broken with grief of years.
Husband is sleeping so free from all
pain.
Oh, wake him not sweet spirit to
suffer again,
He slumbers so sweetly, oh let him
sleep on,
His troubles all ended, his sorrow
all gone.
By his loving wife, ANNIE E. WILL

destroy them as soon as found. a
For small patches the best control
is to go over the patch at least once
day and hand pick the beetles, the
larvae and the eggs, and destroy,
Where the patch is too large for this
spray the potatoes, using arsenats OF
lead, at the rate of two pounds of the
powder to fifty gallons of water. This
has the advantage over Paris Green
in that one can see what has been
sprayed. If Paris Green is used, APP
ply at the rate of one pound to 100
gallons of water. Repeat spray every
two weeks as long as the larvae or
beetles are working.

your potatoes at once. See the Cour-

yer and they have also been found in
the Garden Tracts district.
The following description taken
from the State College bulletin No.
log on Potato Growing in Washington
will enable persons to identify the
pest.
''The adult BEETLE is about the size
and shape of half a pea, with the
rounded side uppermost. It is yell
low in color with the wing covers or
namented with ten longitudinal black
stripes. The larvae or immature
stage is a pale red slug; soft, plump,
and Shiny and very disgusting in ap-
pearance. The orange-colored eggs
are about the size of the head of a
pin. They are deposited by the fe-
male on the under side of the leaves
in clusters of from three or four to
as many hundred. 1t is not uncom-
mon to find as many as fifty or sixty
eggs in cluster.
"The beetles live over winter in the
adult stage, alternating in the ground.
When the potatoes come up in the
spring the beetles emerge from the
soil and feed upon the young leaves
and vines. They are often seen, how
yer, before the potatoes are even
planted. At this time they fly about
and mate. After few days they lay
their eggs, and in about a week the
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1922-06-01

eggs hatch out into tiny, young, very
plump slugs which grow and develop
for about three weeks, when they reach
their full size as larvae. They then
go into the ground, change to pupae
and in about three weeks emerge as
adult striped beetles. They soon mate
and after few days the female lays
the second crop of eggs which hatch
out into second generation of lar
vac. A single female may lay several
hundred eggs. All stages of the in
sect may be found at almost any time
during the summer. 1t is not uncom-
mon to find eggs, several different
sizes of larvae and adult beetles all on
the same potato vine at the same time.
"Most of the injury to the vines is
done by the larvae, altho the adult
beetles also feed upon the foliage
more or less. The first brood of lar
vac does the most damage in the cas-
tern part of Washington, altho the
second brood is much more numer-
GUS"
Do not mistake the potato bugs for
Lady Bird beetle eggs. Only one var
iety of lady bird (the hippodamia spe-
cie) is said to lay salmon colored
egg, which looks somewhat like a po-
tato bug egg, but this lady bird would
seldom lay its eggs in a potato patch,
so treat all yellow, orange or salmon

mixtures. It may be argued that in the good old days men drank far more than is the case today. That Is possibly true, but they would get their horses and go for a gooo gallop over fences to work off any softness. Your cocktail drinker does not ride a horse ;instead he seeks the most comfortable armchair in his club--and sleeps!
 "There is another charge I have to make against our modern youth. He is a scanda1monger. It is some time, alas! since the hint of an in- suit to a lady brought out swords to force an apology. Today men are not sufficiently manly to protect their. womenfolk. and if they have a com pIaint thy do not settle 1t in manly way. They prefer to go to law the very idea of which is an insult to our national traditions.
 "The aim and object of modern education seems to be the careful training of our youth to enter a safe profession. Many parents refuse to let their sons enter the services be- cause they are risky and adventur- ous Adventurous? Why, adven- ture and work are the very breath of life.

 State and county officers also will be chosen, but greatest interest is in the Senatorial campaign. MT. Mon dell, who is Republican floor leader in the House, has served Wyoming as its only representative for 25 years. He desires to go to the upper body Senator kendrick, Democrat, for mer governor of the state, seeks re- election.
 Mondell Is making his campaign on a straight Republican platform and is strongly endorsing the national ad- nlinistration-
 He is pointing out his years of faith full service in the Lower House and promising a continuation of his work in the Upper House If elected.
 The Kendrick campaign, which has the endorsement Of the League for Progressive Political Action-a group with alleged radical tendencies and of Non-Partisan League fraternity well as the Dem ocrats, kendrick also Is counting few Republican votes by upholdtng the tariff and other Repub- lican legislation.

London, Oct. 27-Unless Britishers regain their spirit of adventure the nation is lost.
 This is the belief expressed by Sir Claude De Crespigny.
 Ut would be a good thing for the future of the nation if due1ling were reintroduced and personal satisfaction for an injury took the place of nam- by-pamby, wordy argument in the courts." Sir Claude says.
 Many men now are in the habit of declaring that their womenfolS are becoming less womanly and more aggressive. If this is so it is the law of compensation working, for as woman is getting nearer to man dn his characteristics so is man veer- ing inevitably to the feminine. Many men think nothing of letting women be the breadwinners. Where is our manliness, our chiva1ry, if such a state of affairs is allowed to &ist?
 The young men of 1922 seer1 to have forgotten how to lead a manly life, or, if they have not forgotten. they shun it like the plague. Self ease and comfort-these are the modern aims The general inclination is all toward the amassing of wealth, with the ultimate aim of a soft and lazy retirement.
