Hopper Bait for
Steams County Arrives
Four Carloads Being Distributed
BY County Agent-Are Now
Matching Rapidly

-Four carloads of grasshopper
bait arrived in Stearns county re-
Gently, and are rapidly being dis
tributed in the various townships
In 1882 and 1888 the supply Of bait
was a little late in coming and
hoppers had grown to good size
when the bait was distributed. This
year however the first shipment ar
rived two weeks ago, a week be-
fore any hoppers had Matched in
the county.
Hoppers are not Matching rapid
ly in many sections of Stearns
county, and County Agent LEM
meier urges every farm operator
to keep close watch for the &C
tivities of young hoppers along
fence rows and in meadows and
pastures, the usual hatchery places
Bait will be distributed through
township chairmen and township
committeeman and to individual
farmers from the county agents Of
fee. Every township has a com.
mittee of eight to fourteen mem.
bers for this purpose and each
part of the various townships are
property represented on the com
mittees. Individuals should make
their needs known to the township
chairman or the committeeman
They in turn will arrange with the
county office for the amount need
ed for all or part, of a township.
There is an ample supply OF
poison bait at the present time
and failure to use the bait on
farms in Stearns county will be
the result of carlessness according
to the county agent.
This week already one car was
distributed for Freeport and two
for st. Cloud. A fourth carload Is
stored in the county warehouse al
St. Cloud. In addition to that
nearly a carload ds left in seven
townships from last year. A sup
ply of arsenic and molasses is also
available in st. Cloud from amounts
remaining from last year.
With severe drouth conditions
this year the food supply for hop
pers in the Matching places will be
very limited. They will soon move
to crops that may be remaining in
the fields nearby. For this reason
earlier poisoning will be essential
Hoppers should be left to grow as
large as possible in their Matching
grounds before poisoning and still
have the job done before they start
to move. This accomplishes the
largest percent Of kill.

Pickles and Ice Cream
Do Not Cause Trouble
DIR. Wilbur. of Mayo Clinic Says
Old Theories Have Been Dis
proven Many Times

Rochester, Mimi, May 24-The
popular beliefs that pickles and ice
cream eaten together give rise to
violent stomach disorders and eel
cry and fish and brain foods have
been exploded by DIR. Dwight L..
Wilbur, Of the Mayo clinic here.
There is no scientific evidence"
DR.. Wilbur said, that in the the
healthy individual any combination
of foods is deleterious.
1.-THE old thought that cherries
and cream or sea foods and cream
produced poisons or generally
caused indigestion when eaten to-
gether has been disproved many
times and lacks proof in scientific
evidence"
DR.. Wilbur is a son of DR.. Ly-
man Wilbur, former secretary of
the interior.
The idea that one can supply
added strength to ones brain or
wisdom by eating regularly Of cell
cry and fish Us quite far fetched, he
said.
1.-THE eating of tomatoes does not
cause thinning of blood. Brown
shelled eggs are just as nutritious
and digestible as white and cucum-
bers do not contain a poison and
soaking them in salt water does not
draw a poison out of them"
Lastly" DIR. Wilbur concluded,
cooking acid foods in aluminium
vessels is not harmful and leaving
food in opened tin cans is not any
more dangerous than it is to leave
them in china or glass dishes"

went to second shortly after and
both men scored on Ben Toms
hit. Holt was hit by pitched ball,
but Bryan famed; Iwinski was
safe on a fielder's choice when Holt
was taken shortstop to second; Du-
Bois was hit by the pitcher and
Baker famed to end the inning.
Bryan, at his time at bat, hit a
long fly to left garden, which went
foul only by inches, and would
have been responsible for two more
runs, only that the ball was driven
foul by the high wind which made
playing hard and so made it very
uncomfortable for fans to watch
the game. The dust was terrible.
At the end of the fourth the
score stood 6 to 5 for Andy's Colts
and so it remained. Baker had the
visitors eating from his hand, and
allowed only one hit in the fifth
and one in the ninth. Sank Centre
was unable to get hits off Of An
derson in the next four innings,
and although men reached first in
the fifth, sixth and seventh they
were unable to come through.
Tubby Scanlan proved his met
tie at short, when he went in for
Holt and handled three chances in
veteran style, some of them not so
easy. His advent to the field and
the addition Of Doc Franta to the
lineup has strengthened the in
field, and which with practice will
be as smooth as any in the league.
Among the players on Andy's
staff, Benson led in hitting with a
500 average. Butch Iwinski, who
played in every game is batting
430; Pat Dubois has an average in
hitting of 80; Franta came
through in the game Sunday for
1888, and Ben Tom, who conven-
iently hits with men on bases, has
an average of 1877. Let it be said
that Tom has figured considerably
in all scoring events since he has
been with the Colts. Pierson bat
ted .28O and the balance of the
team will have to fatten up consid-
erably even to get honorable men
ton. Ross came through with a
timely hit Sunday, and has re-
gained his eye following a strike
out epidemic which has followed
him through the first games. He
will do some hitting for the rest of
the season.

Drouth Forces Influx of
Poor Cattle to Market
to Purchase Surplus i'm
Dry Areas

Declines in the cattle market
during the past week can be attri-
buted largely to the continued
drouth, and the accompanying in
f1ux of dry-weather cattle, states
the weekly market bulletin issued
by the Central Cooperative Assoc
citation of South st. Paul. Thous-
ands of thin, emaciated cattle are
arriving by truck and by rail from
virtually all points in the five
west states. This condition reflects
feed shortage and parched pas
lures.
AS a consequence, markets are
suffering form excessive supplies OF
low conditioned meat animals
Owners who come to market state
that they are forced to ship be.
cause their feed bins are empty
and their pastures bare. Many OF
the shelly" critters on the market
are sold subject" because of ex-
IRENE emaciation. Some are con-
demned and are consigned to the
tanks for fertilizer.

situation is so acute that cattle
cannot be carried longer on farms
the government will purchase sur
plus cattle. Details of the cattle
buying program have not yet been
determined, but tentative plans
call for purchase of cattle on
farms. The cattle, according tc
news releases from Washington, are
to be disposed of either through
local relief channels, through ship,
ment for processing and distribu.
ton by the Federal Emergency Re
lief Administration, or through con,
demnation and disposal on the
farm in cases where cattle are un'
fit for food usage.
In regard to the governments
droth relief plan, N. K. Carnes
general manager of the Central Co
operative Association, says thai
something must be done immed'
lately for reports from many sec
tons are that cattle are already dy
ing in pastures and others are toe
weak from starvation to be LOADED
for market.

Character in Citizenship"

O@S@@TSsA~S@@AE
Who is citizen. In terms of law,
he is person who is either born
in this country, or has come from
foreign country and has been
naturalized. Those facts alone do
not make a good citizen. A good
citizen must be willing to cooperate,
must love liberty, know how to use
his hands and brain, master the
English language, love the United
States above all countries, and
serve his country every day. The
citizen who loafs and shirks his
work is not only harming himself,
but he is a menace to the commun-
ity as a whole.
Now, let us discuss character in
relation to good citizenship. Being

are three more games to play in
the first half of the season after
which members of the All-Star

Last Sundays games in the
Central Minny circuit were all
rather ragged, featuring strong
hitting on all teams. The high
wind at Sank Centre made it i'm
possible for batters to drive the
ball out OF the infield. Three fly

A NAL wrap reigns supreme. The
latest gesture in high fashion circles is
white velvet for evening coats, for
handsome tunics to top dark skirts and
for the new basque and jacket blouses.
Designers are doing wonderful things
with the new white velvet such as a
knee-depth tunic made of white trans
parent velvet with gold cord and tassel
at the neckline and about the waist.
There is also lovely crinkled wash
able white velvet being shown this
season which is eminently practical
seeing that it tubs to perfection. For
blouses and TUNES this white washable
velvet will be found ideal.
An intensely interesting note about
the new formal evening wraps which
are fashioned of white velvet, Is their
silhouettes which depart radically from
the conventional lines we have been
accustomed to see.
For inspiration in creating the new
err wraps, designers are turning to such
humble sources as butcher-boy smocks
and other similar garments Of loose
flowing lines. The butcher-boy jacket
which belts across the front, fiaring
loose at the back, is wonderfully youth
full and chic made up in white velvet.
A collar of white ermine with muff and
wee hat to match makes such an en-
semble infinitely attractive.
Then, too, in this movement toward
the silhouette which is different style
creators have even turned their atten-
ton to choir-boy garb as contribut-
ing influence to the new wrap fashions.

SYNOPSIS

Prudence Schuyler comes to Prosper
ity Farm, inherited from her uncle, to
make a new life for herself and her
brother, David, his health broken by
tragedy. The second day on her farm
Prue falls from the barn loft into the
arms of Rodney Gerard, rich young
man, a neighbor. There Is at once
mutual attraction. but Prudence sus-
poets men since her sisters husband
ran away with her brothers wife. Len
Galloway tries to buy Prue's timber,
but she contracts with Rod to dispose
of the trees. David comes to the farm.
A clown appears, advertising a circus
in nearby town. Prue accompanies
Rod and Jean to the show. Chicot, an
old clown, is accidently killed. He was
the grandfather Of Milly Gooch, one
of the circus riders. Rod became friend
ly with Milly when she lived on Pros
perity Farm. Galloway intimidates
available laborers so that they cannot
be hired to cut the timber for Rodney
Gerard. Milly Gooch broke her engage
ment to Galloway; he believes Rod was
the cause and has since been his en-
envy. After the accident to Chicot, Rod
calls on Milly to see If he can be Of any
help. Prue hardens herself still more
against Rod when she sees in the
newspaper a f1ashlight picture of him
with Milly.
