GLOVER ROOT BORERS DISCOVERED IN FIELDS 1 NEAR GONNERSVILLE

COXNERSVILLE. Ind., June 13. Clover root borers, which ordinarily

feed on the clover I plant, have been discovered in corn ( fields near Connersville. and south Vand east of that city. They are small1 white grubs, the larvae of a bnywroish beetle which is seen In the adult form in the fall or late summer. These grubs are to ba found in the soil around the roots of the plant. Fearing damage to their corn, farmers who discovered the borers reported them to Charles Robinson, county agent, who sent specimens to Purdue. A reply from J. J. Davis, entomologist, states that they rarely touch corn, end usually are found only in second year clover. No serious damage to the corn is anticipated from them. The eggs ordinarily are laid in the. roots of clover, and the grubs burrow into them, causing no visible damage unless dry weather causes the plant to die. With plenty of rain, however, the plant seems healthy, only failing to grow as fast as plants which are not infested. Summer fallowing is the control method advised wherever the borers become numerous. Plowing so as to um up the clover roots and kill the host plants just when the insects are

maturing will eliminate them. The insect has not been found so-seriously injurious that this method is often followed, however.

AGED WOMAN SAYS CHURCH GOING HAS CHANGEDiBUT'LITTLE

fBy Associated Press) CLEVELAND, O., June 13. There is slight difference between church attendance now and 73 wars' ago when Fhe attended her first Sunday school at Old Stone cbairch, according to Mrs. Martha Eyers. Although 89 years old, Mrs. Eyers may be found worshipping at the same church on any Sunday when the weather is pleasant. "Going to church isn't much different from what it was then," Mrs. Eyers said. "Of course, you don't see the fine carriages in front of the church. . And people don't come to church in the morning, bring along their lunch and '.stay for Sunday school as they used to. "But we had missionary socitles then and Sunday school, of course. Christian Endeavor is something new, started within the last 30 years, I think. "They used to have a choir instead of a Quartet, and -we bought our pews

and nnid taxes on them instead of

renting them." Mrs. Eyef3 has been a member of

the Old Stone church continuously for

69 years. Since she first attended its Sunday school, when 16 years of age,

the ministers, elders, trustees, ush

ers, choir and even members of the

ennereeation have died or moved

away.

Rev. A. B. Meldrum, the present pastor of the church, is its fifth minister. He has occupied that pulpit for 20 years.

A Great Shipbuilding Job By FREDERIC J. HASKIN

WASHINGTON, D. C, June 13. During the five years just passed the United States did the biggest job of shipbuilding in the history of the world. The exact period of this accomplishment ranges from May 24, 1917, to May 9, 1922. On the former date the wood cargo carrier called the North Bend, in honor of the Oregon city where she was constructed, was turned over to the Government as the

first vessel produced under the emer

gency program, the cargo and

with his foreign competitors in the matter of operating expenses. It costs a great deal more to sail a vessel under United States registry, in compliance with our laws as to crews, etc., than it does under that of any other country, and unless something is done about it our idle ships bid fair to remain out of commission. This brings up the problem of what is to be done to preserve the American merchant , marine. Albert D. Lasker, chairman of the Shipping Board, insists that nothing but Government aid offers a solution of the problem. He says: "The proposed ship subsidy bill, which is now being discussed before the joint congressional committee, provides adequate means, subject to such amendments as are advisable and practical, for the restoration of American maritime prestige. "Until the citizen who resides inland cooperates witp. hi3 brother on the various coasts of the country and

truly feels that he will share directly

or indirectly in the prosperity that is to follow the upbuilding of our import

and export trade, all efforts to put

our idle fleet in operation will be fu

I tile. This is a matter for the entire nation to support, not only from a j spirit of patriotism and of pride, but for the even greater purpose of ecoj nomic and national preservation. "America must build up her export trade. We must find markets for our surplus production, no nation has j ever been successful in carrying out ! these policies unless it has had a strong merchant marine capable of ; transporting its own commodities to ! all parts of the world in its own botjtom. For us, the only solution lies 1 in Federal asistance."

Ship subsidy is by no means a new

President's Physician Gives Decalogue to Grads (By Associated Press) PHILADELPHIA. June 13. A decalogue for the young physician recently was presented by Brigadier General Charles E. Sawyer, physician to Presi lent Harding, in delivering the commencement address at Hahnemann merical college.

The decalogue included these in-j junctions: "Never lose sight of the fact that it is looking after the little things that makes men great. "Keep yourselves in touch with the active men and women and the practical needs and policies of the times. "Don't forget that you actually owe o your community and to your country not only your presence, but your encouragement and support as well.

was delivered to Ihe Emergency Fleet Corporation at Sparrows Point, Maryland. In all 2,313 vessels of various types, with a gross dead weight tonnage of 13,636,711, were constructed in establishing this record in shipbuilding. Originally the program called for.3,270 bottoms of 18,407,276 tons, but the Armistice came in time to eliminate 958 ships, work on which had not been started, or had not progressed sufficiently far to make their completion advisable. Just how much all this cost the people of the United States has not been computed and authoritatively announced as yet. Probably it will

not be known for many years, for claims and adjustments are pending that may still be unsettled when the original claimants have long since been gathered to their fathers. It was one of the big items in Uncle Sam's war bill. What it lacked in economy it made up in size. It was one of

the most gigantic accomplishments in maritime history. While there were waste and extravagance, and possibly some graft, the well informed say that it made possible the winning of the war hence was worth all that it cost.

They include the various types of requistioned and contract steel cargo carriers, tankers, refrigerators, transport, collier and combined passenger and cargo carriers; contract wood vessels of various kinds and sailing ships; contract composite cargo carriers, contract concrete cargo carriers and tankers; steel and wood ocean-going tugs and steel and wood harbor tugs.

lvvs. in tnat year l,4a7 vessels of all kinds, including all ships of five net tons and over, were built, the total tonnage being 921,324. In the first 10 months of 1919 the maximum prewar construction for an entire year was greatly exceeded. In September of that year, 150 ocean-going steam vessels were delivered to the Government. Building ships was only one of the activities of the Shipping Board in carrying through its great plan?. The Board and its various agencies contracted for the purchase of ships under various kinds of purchase contracts. In some jobs it became a co

worker in the construction of ships.

It undertook the duties and responsibilities of a banker, and assisted in the financing of some shipyards. It became a general contractor and pro-

tals and the like

All in all,- it was a big job the Shipping Board had on its hands. It was an undertaking that fairly staggers the imagination, and that it was accomplished is a monument to American business enterprise and genius.
