LETTER TO THE FARMERS
Rust on RaSpherries.

Some people have noticed yellow
ish to golden appearing dust that is
coming on the pnderslde Of the Rasp-
berry leaves. Let us look at our
berry bushes. If you find such a
thing appearing, cut off the infected
ORANGES at once and burn them.
This is a rust without doubt. 1t
is known as Red Orange Rust. 1t is
most harmful to Black Cap Rasp-
berries, though it frequently Injuries
blackberries, dewberries and other
plants of this type.
Aside from the appearance OF this
golden colOred rust one can notice
that the affected plant has the ap-
pearance OF WEAKNESS, lOSeing vigOr
and slowly will die back. Where this
trouble appears 1t will be necessary
to destroy the old plantation and
change ground for some time. 1t will
spread quickly form one bush to an
other and from one garden to another.
Protect yourself, your friends and
neighbCrs.
Grant County $4,000 Egg Incubator.
One of the wonders in Grant coun-
ty is this large incubator, owned by
Oates and Ellis of Bloomington.
Grant county should feel proud OF
such a hatchery with capacity such
as this. Many hundred chicks have
gone out this spring and few pull
lets at about two pound weight have
been sold.
This firm | understand are plan
ming on selling most of their output
at about a two pound weight next
year This seems to me to be worth
our consideration If this be the case
we will now be able to place our or
der this winter for June delivery OF
not 100 baby chicks, but 100 two
pound pullets. The danger age IS
over and besides we will not have
supply of cockerels to dispose of.
Some pullets have been put out this
way before and those who have Sc
cured them think it the real way to
buy.
twenty Herds Receive T. B. Test.
In jamestown township this week
twenty herds have received the Fed
eral T. B. test.
The twenty herds are supplying
milk to Dubuque and that city de-
mands milk from only T. B. tested
cattle. What better thing can we
consider than the stamping out of the
cause of spread. DR.. Pynn, who is in
charge of the work in jamestown
stated that he does not expect very
high percentage to react.
Let US consider our health and that
of the children enough to get rid of
the T. B. animal.
Limestone Interest Grows.
The past week has seen the adj
vance of the number of tons of lime
stone desired, by several hundred
tons.
IN the Hurricane region number
or men got together Tuesday night,
June 10, and made known their wants
for lime to the extent of 200 tons.
This amount will be ground in the
Boice Creek quarry some time in the
month of August.
On June Goth, Wednesday night at
Hazel Green another group of men
gathered together to talk over lime,
its value, and ways and means of Sc
curing it. Movement is afoot now TO
secure a crusher for this district.
Something like 500 or 90 tons is
signed up for in that part.
1t begins to look more and more as
if 1000 tons of lime stone for Grant
county before snow falls is not an idle
dream.

If you were to rip off the upholster- ing on the inside of the brougham, the same high finish would be found on the inside of the panels.
 This type of construction not only allows a high bake but also permits certain radical changes to be made in other construction methods em- ployed in building quality closed car bodies. These are principally in the door and window construction of the new Jewett brorgham.
 The doors on all quality automo- piles today have concealed stops new Jewett brougham has similar concealed stop, doing away entirely with the leather stop protruding in side the body. The door opens to a point where it forms a right angle with the body and is automatically checked, without the least strain on the hinges by this new type of a stop.
 Another is the overcoming of the possibility of ruined body resulting from a crash. The owner need not worry if he finds his side dented. The brougham can be taken to a nearby service station and a new panel substituted within a few min utes. The Jewett Is again It's nor nal self.
 There Is also the reinforcing of each reinforcement used at every joint. Not only is the quietness of wooden flexible frame found in this high bake enamel finished brougham but every squeak and possible loose fitting Is also eliminated by extra reinforcing.

 NEW BABY nv PAIGE LINE
New Jewett Brougham On Display At Detroit Motor Car
 Company-Fnished By New Process

Today will go down In automobile history as the date on which a new type of closed car body construction was presented to the public, accord ing to Lawrence Pennington, of De- troit Motor company.
 In the showroom of the Paige and Jewett dealer in Birmingham Is on exhibit the new brougham added to the Jewett line this month at a price almost that of the touring car.
 It Is finished in baked enamel by new process, providing a lasting lustre, yet for the first time in auto mobile history is the body built on a hardwood frame.
 Heretofore 1t has been a recog nized impossible feat to produce a baked enamel finish on body framed in wood-the heat of 400 de- grees Fahrenheit and more neces- sary to give the lasting lustre would melt the glue in the mortises or would warp the best seasoned of frames.
 Most automobile bodies with a baked enamel finish are constructed d with steelAframes, forcing the loss of the flexibleness found in wooden framed closed bodies.
 By the new process used in the manufacture of this new Jewett body panel Is dipped and baked indivldu- frame. The wood never experienced the enormous heat necessary to bake the enamel properly.
 The all-steel panels which entire ly sheath the new Jewett brougham receive three coats of enamel. three bakes and three polishes. They are finished the same outside and inside,

INTERNATIONAL MOTOR STAGE

The modern substitute for the old time four-horse stage coach Is the new International motor stage. It Is speedy, reliable combined passenger, parcel and mall service between towns up to 150 miles apart where no other transportation is available Besides two roomy cross seats facing, forward in front of the stage for driver and five or six passengers, there are two folding side seats in the rear which can accommodate from six to eight additional passengers. With these last named seats folded back, moreover, 8 large compartment Is provided for baggage, express or mail.
 The nexibility of the International motor stage makes 1t weli-fitted for a variety of hauling purposes. The stage may work as 8 feeder to rail- roads or connect inland towns with seaports. It may, also, serve as a summer resort bus or as hotel-and- station wagon. For summer re- sorts and hotels. particularly, 1t does the work of transfer truck as well as bus, thus eliminating delays in
