Jud. Oct 28, Working ' on the theory that increased cooperation efforts are obtainable if a few i presentative farmers of Indiana 1 area; now infected with the European 1 corn Inner see the actual damage done by the pest in Canadian fields where it has been most serious, the conservation department is each week send- • ng representatives from the state enii.otologist's offic with delegations to i view stricken sect!ions in the Cana dian domain. , week Frank N. Wallace, state I entomologist and Paul Ulman, deputy s headed a delegation of nine farmers lars damage to Ihe corn crop. r Essex counties. Canada, and on Thurs- ] day. Oct. 28. the conservation depart- . ment officials will take a similar nuniher of farmers from Steuben county into the Canadian territory where boters wrought many thousands of dollars damage to the cor n -rop. State conservation officials are pro- ( (-ceding on the plan that if the borer is to be stopped in Indiana it must bo largely done thr >ugh cooperation of , farmers to successfully fight this pest- , If they can show actual conditions re-, suiting front the Irorer in sections most damaged—and which is done by I the e ex-orisons -then these tepre- 1 ! sentative farmers on their return will help to discuss the matter as control measures with local farmers threatened by borer invasion. “No one would have been able to convince me of the ilanuftn this pest ' Is doing had 1 not actually seen it.” 1 explained one D* Kalb county farmer member, of the party visiting Canada last week. “I even doubt if I now can , convince my neighbors of what they are up against if theis pest is not stopped, but you can be assured that I a ingoing to spend the greater par* of my time trying to impress upon them they must immediately coipe'ate 1 with tlie conservation department if they expect to es ape seveA* losses." According to Mr. Wallace the de--1 monstration of ne wfarm machinery tn. - id in caring lor the crops, hold last week, was very successful, but he stresses the fact that farmers must 1 be educated to what is expected from 4 I, \\ can Jdo f why can’t I have a skin lijce Uz other girls?

What can I do?" Is that you talking? If it is. you don’t have to worry a minute! Just '! build up the rich, red blood in your body. Then your skin will bo as clear ami soft as anybody’s. 1 That’s what S. S. S. has been doing for generations —helping Nature build rich, red blood! You can build redI blbod-cells so fast that the impurities that cause breaking out on the skin 1 hardly get into tiie system before tho ’ pure blood annihilates them —kills ■ them right out —stops them from breaking out through the skin. i And then this rich, red. pure blood feeds and nourishes the tissues of the skin and keeps It looking healthy. That’s all there is to it. Healthy, vigorous. A red blood such as S. S. S.

If this feature of curing for the crop can. be perfected as expected. it will do away with burning the stalk. Right now the problem is to convince farmers they are up against the real damaging pest ot the insec t world, and not to neglect the opportunity to help, Is Wallace’s summary of the situation in Indiana. — —-o To Investigate Crossing Os Telephone and Power Lines Indianapolis, Oct. 28. — (United I’ress) The state public service commission teday is investigating the Intermingling of power lines with telephone wires with a resultant hazard to human life. John W. McCardle. chairman of the commission, detailed William Edwards, service department manager, to make a survey of the situation following a report on the electrocution of telephone lineman at Morgan-; town. The lineman, accoiding to a report l made to the commission, was killed. when he touched a telephone wire that was crossed with a power transmission wire. M-e Cradle said that Edwards will inspect lines at Morgantown, Trafalgar. Hymera and several other towns and that steps would be taken t>. . compel utilities to remove hazards! wherever found. i Earl Carter, chief engineer of the commission, suggested that .it call a conference of all telephone company and electric utility representatives in the state at once. William Lebo, electrical engineer for the commission, reported after an investigation of the electrocution -i*. Morgantown that the franchise with the Wabash Valley Electric con peny has expired.
