Officers in the court house were opened today, the county (commissioners convened and everyone was refreshed from the holiday. Business was resumed this morning following the Fourth of July holidays, men and women went back to work and everyone was determined to make up for loss time. Doug and Mary are a little old to be acting up that way, but anyway it's nice that father can join son on a world tour while their marital troubles are settled. Albert R. Erskine, president ot the Studabaker Corporation, took the easy way out. Worry and disappointments no doubt affect one’s health and mind and it’s a sorry state when a man can see no further in this life. The sale of fire crackers has dropped 50 per cent in the last four years. Soon the country will realize that Independence Day can be celebrated without using the powder pellets and everyone's nerves will be better. Have you taken notice to the number of houses painted in De- i catur this year? Prices are reason-: able and aside from the satisfac- 1 tion obtained in having a clean and briwJit looking premise, paint protects the material, making it wise economy to do the job. They still run wild in Kentucky. Eight persons were killed in a school trustee election at Preston-! burg and several were injured. They take their elections ail too seriously. It would have been easier to get rid ot the candidates or called for another election. The summer season reached its height with the observance of the Fourth. The next two months will mean vacations for many, motor trips, visits to the world’s fair, resting at the lakes and before we know it Labor Day will sound the bell that another summer is gone. Corn was kr.ce high in many fields’ on the Fourth of July, one of the best barometers of a good crop i this tall. Tite rain Sunday morning made everything take on a healthy look and with a break in the weather from now on, Adams county farmers predict that the harvest will be near normal. BSquICK ?

Several merchants have suggested that a city wide sales event be held here within the next few t weeks. It’s a good time to stlmuI late tilings, shoppers arc In a buying mood and everyone Is feeling f better. A little effort will bring results. I After August 1, Adams county will not have an attendance officer. > The county board of education vot--1 ed not to employ anyone for the i next year and the county council 1 has refused to make an appropriI atlon for the post. The duties of 1 the office will be taken over by County Superintendent of Schools C. E. Striker and the superintendents of schools In Decatur and Berne. The last legislature passed a law making the office optional and the board of education ruled that the services of the office could be dispensed with? Another auto tragedy in Decatur. Leaving home Sunday morning, filled with happy anticipation of a visit to the world’s fair, a party of young folk from North Carolina encountered death at the AdamsAllen county line. We don't know that anyone was to blame, but it's surely a shame that such terrible things must happen, marring the lives of all concerned. It's old fashioned advice, but you can’t be too careful when driving on the highways. As we said before, it's just as important that you keep an eye on the other fellow as driving carefully. The economic conference in London may break up, but President Roosevelt is not going to be hoodwinked into doing something to the detriment of the United States. The controversary and point of discussion arises over currency stabilization and bankers and economists in this country vouch that the President is right in his stand. He is giving the European boys a new brand of American politics or diplomacy, as some call it and has proved in his actions that he is the President of the United States and that no interest conies ahead of that. More power to him. — —-o ♦ * Household Scrapbook —By— ROBERTA LEE ♦ — Candles If a candle that is too large for the candlestick is held in hot water it can easily be pressed to fit the candlestick.

Coshow has returned to Adams county and will continue to cooperate with County Agent Archbold on the tuberculosis survey in poultry. He will begin his work in St. Mary's township. The survey began in Union township where 10% of the flocks were found affected. In Preble ' township the infection ran 25%; 20% in Hartford; 15 in Jefferson; 20 in Blue Creek, and about the same in Wabash. On a re-check in Preble township it was found that about 65% of the farmers had followed Dr. Coshow’s suggestion and had sold off the old birds. Anyone having poultry disease problems may get in touch witli Dr. Coshow through the county agent’s office. — —o— — - FOUR NATIONS IN AGREEMENT ON PRODUCTION FROM PAGE ONE) Henry Morgenthau representing the United States, met for 2% hours.

a United States and Canada to agree • It was understood that these instructions pleuged Australia to limit her exports to a certain amount, and to undertake to pre--1 vent any accumulation of surplus F stocks. This latter undertaking . was away of saying that Australia t would restrict her acreage. It was rumored that the agreet meat reached in principle today provided for 15 per cent reduction . of acreage for two years, or for , reduction of exports by 15 per cent for two years. But It was , said officially that it was not necessary at this time to fix defi- . nltely a percentage, and that it was preferable to await the midJuly world crop survey. o SEAPLANE AND BOATS SEARC H FOR MISSING (CONTINUED FROM PAGE«ONID Capt. Leveau turned his attention to the barge H. Turner, breaking up with four men and a woman aboard. The five got into a dory and got alongside the collier. After they were pulled, aboard the woman and two men went below to get dry clothes. The captain and his mate insisted on going back to the tug. Since no boa; could be launched, they jumped overboard. By a whim of the sea, both men were swept alongside the tug and taken aboard. The Brooks Scanlon then cleared her propeller and made safety inside the Delaware breakwater with the third of her barges. The barge Brunswick, towed by the tug Caleen. broke in half. The Caleen got a line to half the wrecked barge but soon was in distress herself, and the coast guard boat Galatea was called to stand by. Meanwhile the barge Bares, whose crew had been rescued a few moments earlier by the Caleen. broke up in the pounding sea. The tug Nassau, towing the barges Chemengo and Chelsea, called for aid by wireless but could not be found despite hours of search. The barge Baldrick, also was missing after an appeal foi help. BUSINESS GAIN AT SOUTH BEND (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) of the New York Central railroad, .the latter caused partly by world’s fair traffic, has sent many a furloughed Elkhart railroad worker back to work.

AGENTS ' I COLUMN Ik- - Apply Sprays I It Is highly important that fruit ' growers, especially those in the ’ southern halt of the state apply sprays for the second brood e >dl ing moth worms. Worms ar* abundant and adequate control ot ' the second brood worms is essential to Insure a satisfactory worm- ■ free crop. ' Our recommendations for second I brood cover sprays are based largely on observations made at Bed- ■ ford. In that vicinity moths of th-' second brood began to emerge . June 26. which means, with Hie II favorable conditions prevailing. . that the first worms will be hatching July 2 or 3 and that the peak I of the second breed can be expect ed about July 8 in the Bedford area. ’ The following is our prediction based on all data available. Evansville and i First Probable ‘ worms peak of hatching hatching • ' Tulv vicinity uua«- ‘ Mitchell. Bedford. Vincennes July 2-3 July 8 I Bloomington and south July 5-6 July 11 ‘ Noblesville and south July 7-8 July 13 Fort Wayne and south . July 9-10 July 15 1 Extreme north counties . July 11-12 July 17 Spray applications should be completed at least by the peak of hatching and many growers will desire to have an application on when the first worms are hatching. Tue first brood infestation is rather heaw in many orchards and it will he highly important that sprays be thorough in order to control the second brood worms. The federal residue tolerances now in effect are as follows: arsenic .01, lead .02, fluorine .01 grain per pound of fruit. For growers who cannot wash their fruit, the best second brood spray is a one per cent summer oil with nkotine sulphate at the rate of 1 to 1200. Care should be taken to avoid spraying with a summer oil on very hot days and especially is this true on Grimes and Jonathan. Growers are urged to adopt supplementary controls, such as nos chemically treated bands, orchard sanitation and screening pahking houses. o Runs Bisiness From Chair Horton, Kan., —(UP) —Although he has been confined to a whe-l ADAMS THEATRE Tonight & Thursday “SUPERNATURAL” with Carole Lombard.
