While crossing the Wheeling and Lake Erie tracks at Freemont last Friday a farmer investigated what he supposed was a bundle of old clothing lying on the tracks and was surprised to find they covered a fonr-year-ifld child fast asleep. The little tot had started with her brothers and sisters to the river to fish, and getting tired, laid down behind a caboose and went to sleep. The train crew was switching on an opposite track and had not seen the little one. This seems to be a Jonah year for insects and bugs. "The oldest Inhabitant" cannot recall when cut worms were as annoying as at the present time, not conferring their operations to cabbage and tomato plants as customary, but carrying the war against' radishes, lettuce and even onions and potatoes. The striped bug, such a ■pest to cucumbers, pumpkins and melon vines, let up some last week, but the cessation of activity was evidently to sharpen up his incisors. He is back on the job and working all six cylinders. And now comes the advance guard of potato bugs. Each potato bug has brought his wife and the children are coming along fine, thank you. Every blessed one of the family is eating like it had to make up for the time lost before it was born. Oh! There is joy among potato bugs. Bluffton News.
