AVOID CHINCH BUGS BY SOWING GRAINS IN STUBBLE OF CORN LAFAYETTE. Ind., Sept. 13. The serious outbreak of chinch bugs in the state this year has brought inquiries to the experiment station from all over the state regarding the relation of cropping to chinch bug injury another year. The following recom mendations are issued by the station as a result: ' At the present time the bugs occur in menacing numbers in a majority of the counties of the state. Heavy, beating rains when the bugs are small will bury the bugs in mud. killing them; hot, damp weather will promote a disease which kills them, and they may be killed also by repeated freezes and thaws which expose the hibernating bugs during winter. Regular rotations should be continued, as nothing but a universal discontinuance of wheat, rye and barley would lessen the number of bugs, although it may be desirable to reduce the acreage in small grains in the heavier infested regions. j All these grains may be sown in corn stubble or fields which are infested now. As a rule, only a very few of the bugs pass the winter safely In the corn stubble, although numbers did so last winter. Where fields are infested late in the summer, if Is advisable to disk out and burn the stubble before sowing wheat. Under no circumstances should spring wheat be 'sown in infested localities of Indiana. Oats may be safely sown, as most of the bugs fly out and lay eggs before the oats are large enough to be attractive. From present Indications the bugs will be abundant in hibernating quarters this winter, and likewise abundant next spring in small grain, from which they pass to corn, unless severe winter conditions check them. Nothing can be done at present, but in most localities it is possible to accomplish a great deal by burning the bugs in their winter quarters. This can not be done until winter sets in, but every opportunity should be taken this winter to clean out all places in which the bugs are protected. Births Mr. and Mrs. Datus Wyne are parents of a son, born Friday. Mh&t t CARTERS ITTLE VER

New England Mansions Sacrificed to Progress (By Associated Press) PITTSFIELD, Mass., Sept. 13. Some of New England's fine old mansions are being sawed apart to make modern homes. One bit of cross-cut saw handiwork here was the successful division of a 20-room house Into two apartment dwellings. One of the sections was moved to a new site. The old "Whithead mansion" of 27 rooms is to be torn down and made into many small houses. Its three huge chimneys alone are said to contain brick enough to build two modest homes. Thousands of mansions like this were built in New England years ago when materials and labor were inexpensive. Increasing cost of maintenance has caused many to be sold. GENTERVILLE BARN IS SITE FOR PLANT TO TREAT WHEAT Selection of a barn on William Dines property in Centerville has been decided upon definitely as the location for the treating plant which will eliminate loose smut from seed wheat for farmers of Wayne county, the county agent announced Tuesday. Already nearly enough requests have been received for treatment to keep the plant busy during the whole time that treatment can be given. With the applications that are expected within the next two days before the time expires, the agent expects to have enough to operate the plant at full capacity for the whole time. The drum has been ordeed and is expected to arrive at any time. It will be installed the last of.this week, as well as other equipment which may be obtained by that time. A tank in which to soak the seed, for five hours before treatment starts, is necessary, as well as a device for manipulating the drum in which the seed is plunged into the hot water. An ordinary litter carrier can be used for this purpose. Water for the plant will be pumped from a well on the premises. When it became certain that a treating plant could be installed letters were sent out by Mr. Dolan to the membership of the farm bureau asking whether they wished seed treated. Answers so far received include representatives from all parts of the county. NO CORN FOR FUEL, SAY FARMERS LIVING NEAR COAL REGIONS (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Sept. 13 Farmers that raise corn are generally going to burn none of it for fuel this winter because of low prices. That is the judgment of agricultural authorities in big corn raising states. "I never burned any, nor ever heard of anybody burning any corn," said D. O. Thompson, secretary of the Illinois Agricultural association. "I guess somebody figured out it could be done and jumped to the idea that it was. "There will certainly be not much if any of it done in Illinois. We are close to the coal fields and our fur naces are better fitted for coal." From Iowa comes this word from Charles D. Reed, director of the state crop and weather service: "The idea that Iowa farmers might burn corn this winYer is based on the assumption that we are going to have 30-cent corn. Even at that price the margin would not be great enough to warrant burning corn. Farmers will haul their corn to market and exchange it for coal, because corn makes such very poor fuel." J. C. Mohler, secretary of the Kansas state board of agriculture said Kansas farmers will feed their corn to live stock, not put it in the stove. PENNSY EMPLOYES DISCUSS WAGE GUTS All employes of the Pennsylvania railroad coming under the proposed wage reduction are invited to attend the open discussion of the proposition to be held in the Odd Fellows' hall Tuesday night at 7:30 o'clock. This announcement was made by L. C. Martin, chairman of the Glen Miller lodge. No. 671. The question of rejection or acception of the proposed wage scale will be discussed. CRACKER, CAKE PRICE REDUCED TO RETAILERS A reduction of 15 per cent in the price of crackers and cakes to retailers, the third since Jan. 1, 1921, was announced by the Richmond Baking company Monday. The cut of 15 per cent in the price of these two commodities went into effect at once, said the announcement. iimtifuiiniiiwimfitiiiiMiiiiiHifiiuiitnitimumminimnitTiimirnniuiniuiim 1 DR. E. P.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

MATTHEWS RESIGNS FROM MANAGERSHIP OF GRAIN ELEVATOR The resignation of Walter Matthews of Oenterville, from his position as manager , of the Oenterville cooperative elevator, which he has held since the formation of the company, two and one half years ago, was announced Tuesday, although it has been known in Centerville for some time. Mr. Matthews Is taking a position with the Welts Chemical company, cf Columbus, O., as fertilizer salesman. He will represent the company in eastern Indiana, all territory east of Indianapolis being assigned to him. He will not leave Centerville before the end of the month, however. No successor to Mr. Matthews has been secured as yet, and it is probable that the secretary of the company, S. P. Pike, will act as temporary manager until another can be found. Mr. Pike has been spending much time at the elevator and is familiar with the procedure, and knows the business through handling the books, which are in his charge. Company Pays Dividend. This elevator company attracted some attention this year on account of paying a six per cent dividend, an unusual procedure after last year's disastrous business. Reasons given by Porter Pike for this surplus cited the trading on wheat on which a small profit was realized, instead of a loss, which most elevators had, and quicker turnovers on feed. Wheat was sold profitably on account of the elevator getting cars when needed, which other elevators were unable to do. In feeds, only small quantities were in stock at any one time. Much local feeds were bought in order to prevent heavy stocking during the falling price period. The officers of the organization are: John Jackson, president; James Harris, vice president; Gaar Eliason, treasurer; E. P. Pike, secretary, and 'directors, besides the officials, include E. C. Tremps, Harry J. Smith ana Arvel Dailey. There are about 150 stockholders. Masonic Calendar Tuesday, Sept. 13 Richmond Lodge No. 196, F. and A. M.
