FLY IN WHEAT. Prof. Troop Says Samples Sent Him are Badly Infected. John E. Alter of Union tp., sent a sample of wheat to Prof. Troop of the Purdue Agricultural Experiment Station at Lafayette last week, and got the following reply: Lafayette, Ind., Oct. 31, 1910. John E. Alter. Rensselaer, Ind. Dear Sir:—Yours of the 30th is at hand. The wheat which you enclosed is very badly infested with the Hessian fly. The life history of the fly is something like the following; The fly lays its eggs in the fall sown wheat, beginning about the first of September, if it can find wheat at that time, and continuing until September 20 to 25. These agge hatch and work on the wheat until cold weather, when they are in the condition in which you see them at present. They pass the winter in this stage and the adult fly comes out again in the spring and lays another batch of eggs which works on the wheat until harvest time. What you should do next year would be to plow a strip around the field you wish to sow, the latter part of August and sow one drill width around the field and then pare the rest of the field for sowing and about Septembver 25 plow the trap strip under and sow the whole field. Tae flies will have laid practically all of their eggs on the strip which is plowed under. Very truly yours, JAMES TROOP.

NOBODY BUT FATHER. [The following poem is floating around; unfortunately, no one knows who w rote the gem: ] Nobody knows the money it takes to keep the house together; Nobody knows of the debt it makes. Nobody knows—but father. Nobody’s told that the boys need shoes ’■ And girls hats with a feather; Nobody else old cloths must choose. Nobody—only father. Nobody hears that the coal and wood And flour’s out together; Nobody else must make them good. Nobody—only father. Nobody's hand in the pocket goes So often wondering whether There’s any end to the wants of those Dependent—only fathen Nobody thinks where the money will come ? To pay the tills that gather; Nobody feels so blue and glum; Nobody—only father.

Nobody tries so hard to lay Up something for bad weather, And runs behind, do what he may, Nobody—only father. Nobody comes from the world’s ( cruel storm, To meet dear ones who gather Around with loving welcome warm, Nobody does—but father. , r Nobody knows of the home life pure, Watched over by a mother Where rest and bliss are all secure, Nobody can —but father.

Race Started in the Bis New York Trip Contest —Much Interest Shewn

Coutinued from First Page.

Special h By the request of some young ladies living in the country who are unable to get there names entered heretofore, the management has decided to extend the time limit for nominations until Saturday. November 12, so that all those entering the race on or before that day will receive a bonus of 3.000 votes such as was given to those entering at the opening of the contest. This will give those in the county who have been putting off for any reason, or who have made up their minds too late, an equal chance with the rest. Absolutely Fair. It should be thoroughly understood that no one connected with The Jasper County Democrat in any way, is to take any interest in the contest, or to show favors to any of them. The contest is to be conducted in a fair, open manner to every one in every particular. Some Surprises. In a few instances it is learned that the name of a candidate has been entered and balloted upon either by coupons or subscriptions without her knowledge. To these the publication of their names in the above list, together with the number of votes each has to her credit, will come as a surprise, and should encourage them to get “within the money” before the close of, the race. From the start, the girls all seem to have friends who will be only too glad to help them in winning an honor so great as this one and since they have been so kind as to vote for them, they should show their appreciation of this support by making a little effort themselves.

That the young ladies of Jasper county are not so slow to appreciate a good thing when they see it, is very evident from the number of them who have not only entered the big contest, but have made the gain the results show to-day. Though the race is Only a short one and will be brought to a close vefj soon, it will we most interesting because of the prominence and popularity of the young ladies entered. No more attractive girls could be found anywhere, and The Democrat will do itself proud in planning and presenting them the most delightful outing and the most glorious vacation that a girl ever had an opportunity to enjoy, even through she possesses the riches of a throne.

Probable Changes. Because of the fact that the race is so close, several changes in the ranks will no doubt occt r in next Saturday’s results, The present leaders will have to do some hustling to hold their places. A few coupons or a subscription or two would place the last girl in first place in either of the distrcts. Remember the shortness of the contest —you have but a few weeks yet to win. It should be thoroughly understood that a contestant entered in any district is at liberty to solicit votes and subscriptions in the others also, or in fact, whereever The Democrat circulates. All votes must be in this office Vy six o’clock on Monday and Thursday nights of each week in order to be in the following issue of The Democrat One of the requirements of contestants is that they shall be of good moral character, and person’s names who are in the mouths of all the gossipers of the town can hardly be classed as such. . The contest manager reserves the right to reject all such persons nominated.

We can save you money on your suit or overcoat. Let us show you and we’ll Jeave the decision with you.—Rowles & Parker.

The Democrat’s Free Trip to New York City Contest Twenty-five Votes' fl If voted before Saturday, Nov. 12, tbn coupon, when cut out neatly and deposited in the ballot box at The Democrat office, will count for 25 votes for the young lady whose name appears below: Miss [or Mrs.] - ...... —.
