He will live many years in the hearts of every true sportsman. ’Today looks more like the kind of Easter weather we have been hoping and praying for and it won’t be long now until you can safely discard the heavies and get the lawn mower greased up. That’s something. How about a little cleaning up? This is the time of year and such activities are helpful in numerous ways. Paint up, put on new paper, clean the yard, get new awnings. All these things help and is one way to solve the unemployment problem. Bill Wrigley is a fellow that does things* and his latest is to arrange to plq.Ce all tlie money he takes in for chewing gum in twelve of the southern states in a pot to be used as a guarantee for twelve cents a pound cotton next fall. That's a great thing and if the chewing gum kfng gets some free advertising out of it, by gum he is entitled to it. ■ General approval is being given to tire county commissioners for their selection of Albert Reppert * of Kirkland township as a successor to the late John G.

Cox, publisher of the Hartford City News, prominent in civic and political affairs and for years a leader in this part of the state. Mr. Cox was successful and was one of the helpful men of his community, his interests including banking, manufacturing, lixlge work, politics and all those things that go to fill | the calendar of the modern man of! business. He was an excellent citizen and lived as cleanly as he believed.

LAEMMLE SEES MOVIE ADVANCE New York, April 2 — (UP) — “Twenty-five years from now. motion picture theaters will present pictures direct from the studioc by television," Carl Laemmie, president of Universal Pictures Corporation believes. He is celebrating his quarter-century in the film world. I aemmle predicts that picture advancement in the next 25 years will rival the imagination of Jules Verne. “News weekly films will l»e sent by television," ho prophesied “Hence, a shipwreck in the China Sea will be broadcast to all the world within a few hours after it is photographed. Within a few years, school houses will be equipped with television sets which will permit famous educators, surgeons, musicians and lecturers to make a motion picture anti then have it broadcast to all the world while they themselves take up other wot k. “We are living in an age of miracles and the imaginary developments of today will be actualities to our children. The great major changes in film entertainment that have occurred in recent years are nothing compared to those to come."

The Worst la the Best A carload of laughs in each paper: In answer to an article, “Not a laugh iu a car load”, I think we owe this cartoon to the children if no one else. I know a little boy five years old who Justs waits for the mail man to come and deliver the Democrat that he may look at the cartoon” Why! Because there is no reading to it (for he can’t read) but he can look at the picture and in a very little time he has grasped the thought of what the worst is yet to come and runs and tells mother what the thought is. That is very educational to him and why shouldn’t we have something in our valuable little paper for the children also. Now, while he also enjoyes Thimble Theater very much but his mother must always read and explain It to him and it is every mother’s duty to give some time to their children but how proud this little fellow is to study this other cartoon out for himself and, run and toll it to mother. Go right on with “the worst is yet to come" and have some of your paper for the benefit of the children also. miss Optimistic o — ft » COUNTY AGENT’S COLUMN g K (Purdue News Service) Potato scab is quite common in Adams county and causes considerable loss.

this county. Where soil is sweet, application of Ammonium sulphate at 40 pounds to acre in rows will help greatly. This should be mixed with the soil. Growers should not forget to treat even Certified seed stocks as these are liable to have a small amount of scab and black scurf on the outside. To treat potatoes quickly and effectively secure three old vinegar or whiskey barrels and bore an inch hole in the sides of two of them near the bottom so that the solution can be withdrawn easily from them after such treatment. Mount two of these barrels on a substantial platform 16 Inches from the ground. The third barrel is the one In which to make the poison solution. Fill it almost full of water, near the other two. Then dissolve 7 ounces of'powdered corrosive sublimate In a quart glass can. The water in the glass can should be boiling hot as the poison disolves much more readily in hot water. After the corrosive sublimate Is dissolved, pour it into the 50 gallons of water in the barrel. Now fill the other two barrels level full of potatoes and [pour In the poison solution until the potatoes in both barrels are covered Allow them to soak for an hour and a half, then withdraw the poison solution through the holes at the bottom and pour back into the original

barrel. Fill up the barrel again until | it is as full as before and add another ounce and half poison. Meanwhile the potatoes are taken out of the barrels and spread out to dry and the barrels are again filled and this process of treatment continued. After four treatments are made the fifth treatment is given without adding any new poison to the old solution. Thorough treatment when pota toes are dormant, along with crop rotation will largely control scab and black scurf. If the tubers have sprouted cut down the length of I treatment to halt an hour.
