FIND MORE CHINCH BUGS ON FARMS IN BOSTON TOWNSHIP - Chinch bugs have been reported by rcveral more farmers from Boston

township, in addition to these reporting previously, and by Will Guyton, south of Dublin, and Ben Gaiser, of Center township, said County Agent J. L. Dolan, Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Dolan spent all Wednesday morning In southwestern Wayne county and left for the western part of the county In the afternoon. The bugs are Just leaving the small grain fields and in nearly every case reported the farmers have had their attention called to the bugs by their presence ' on the first few rows of corn said Mr Dolan. "Owing to the recent rains, dust can not be maintained in the furrows and barrier furrows can not be used to fight the bugs," he advised. The best method of stopping them now is to make a smooth line, eight inches to a foot wide, in front of them by packing with a shovel ,or dragging a plank where the ground is dry enough laying a line of oil along this path, and dig the trap post holes touching the oil line. 'On account of the rains the bugs have been unable to move for the last 36 to 48 hours and most of them are concentrated on the first few rows of corn under the leaf sheaths. While they are so concentrated is a fine opportunity to get them. Spraying with a tobacco solution (Black Leaf 40 or nicotine sulphate, one teaspoonful to a gallon of warm water) will kill thousands before they, have a chance to spread. A piece of soap the sizo of a walnut should be added to each gallon. Kerosene also will kill them, and so will kerosene emulsion, but both these are like'.y also to kill the corn.. The tobacco solution will not hurt the corn. One man used crankcase oil and killed his corn also, although he did succeed in getting the bugs." While there may not be enough of these bugs to kill very much corn themselves, said the agent, he emphasized the importance or getting a3 many as possible of this generation on account of the second brood. "All information we can get points to the heaviest damage being done by the second brood," he said, "and each one

of these bugs means 200 to COO in the!

ADVERTISING SIGNS ON ROADS MUST GO All advertising signs of any character must be removed from the right-of-way of state highways in Indiana before Sunday or they will be removed by officials of the state highway department, John D. Williams, director of the state highway commission, said today. An order published by the highway commission about four months ago said that no signs other than those of the state highway department or of the Hoosier Motor club, designating the roads, detours and railway crossings, would be permitted on roads controlled by the state highway department after July 1, 1922. The commission expects to enforce that order, Mr. Williams said. Only Those on Right-of-Way The order affects only the advertising 6igns that are within the bounds

of the right-of-way of the state roads. T f tnnlnao nil ... : . 1. : 1 '

which, in addition to containing advertising have information concern

ing the distance from a town. The commission expects to encounter no difficulty in the enforcement

of the order, Mr.. Williams said. The

order for the removal of signs was issued long enough ahead of the date of execution to give persons who had spent considerable money on signs plenty of time to remove their property. In the majority of cases, according to reports received at the statehouse, persons affected by the order have complied with it. Obstruct View of Highway Decision to remove advertising signs from state roads was reached.

Mr. Williams said, because signs had!

become so numerous around cross-! roads and turns as to constitute a menace to motorists by obstructing ai clear view of the highway.

second brood. Thery are the ones that will do the harm, and there is no way to fight them or to prevent a f econd brood after the first brood matures." Evidence of Damage Strong evidence of damage from the recond brood was secured by Al Irvin of Webster township last winter. With rne field infested and one free, he harvested the corn with the bugs in it separately from the other, and found, he claims, a damage of 33 per cent where bugs were present. The corn was cribbed separately and Fhows an planning percentage of deformed, light or chaffy ears. While first brood damage is not usually spectacular, and frequently does not have sufficient effect to be observ

able, yet in some cases the bugs are

numerous enough even to cause seri dus loss.

Wheat Begins to Die "When we cut wheat this summer," ?aid Ben Gaiser of Center township, "it'Was beginning to die in spots. I am confident that if harvest had been i week later severe damage would have been found, and 10 days more wou'd have seen whole fields killed." On the farm of Henry Schlegal, on I he Abington pike, also, it is possible 'o trace the advance of the bugs in an sats field by the advance, of the line Df dead oats, said Mr. Dolan. A tenacre patch adjacent to the wheat field has been invaded and on Tuesday a

stripe for a red inside the fence had

been killed.

The proposal for a loan was received favorably by the Stock Exchange and was submitted to the public. Mr. Hume's and Dr. Bo ring's eloquence over the glories of ancient Greece and its splendid heritage to the world never abated. One announced he had subscribed $50,000.

the other $125,000. Everybody seemed anxious to show his Greek scholarship. The Greek loan became the fashionable' topic in every drawingroom. People who had never been suspected of having heard of Homer before, subscribed large amounts. And anyway, it promised to be a profitable investment dividends of 14 per cent

and only $80 was required to get $100

rise 100 per cent. People of moderate means suddenly saw themselves wealthy and by helping a distressed nation and being in the fashion.

The Greek envoys thought it a pity I

i that such enthusiasm should go to

waste, aDd suggested another loan on the same terms. Then different tidings came. The cavalry-admiral had not his ships yet. The contractors were demanding more money Tor them. Hastily it was sent. No sooner was it gone than the worst news of all was heard: Grecian cities had been besieged, fallen and burnt to the ground. The Turks were overrunning territories that had never known them before, massacreeing the inhabitants. Instead of a liberated Greece progressing towards another golden age, was a region of smoking ruins and deserted pastures.' The price of Greek bonds came down with a run. A protest went up all over England not against the Turk so much as at the Greek Loan Committee. But Messrs Hume and Bowring had their own troubles. They had not expected such news so early, and had not yet sold their bonds. As they now stood, one would lose $10,000 and the other $25,000.

They also protested to the envoys and the committee. They demanded their money back in full. The surprised committee asked would they not have pocketed the profits had the bonds risen in price instead of falling? That had nothing to do with it, the scholars said: they were alarmed at

their large losses. The committee considered, and decided, that they could not afford to lose such powerful, if wavering, friends. Accordingly they took Mr. Hume's bonds off his hands at a los.i

of $4,500 and Dr. Bowring's so thaf

lost, only $11,200. The rest of the public were not so fortunate. Most of them had bought their bonds at Iheir highest figure, and had to stand their losses. And to make matters worse, they had subscribed to other unremunerative loans.

Upwards of $125,000,000 were advanc

ed in Foreign Loans at this period,

few of which kept up even the show of paying dividends. More than three

quarters of this capital was lost forever. ! Enquiries Into the Greek Loan showed that all of the money sub

scribed had been wasted, or else gone in commissions and transactions on the Stock Exchange. The envoys received allowances, and entertained on a scale that prices of other powers could not aspire to.. It was said also that Mr. Hume and Dr. Bowring had received huge commissions for advocating the loan. Moreover, their bonds had not been

jpaid for. They would have suffered

no loss had the committee not taken them over as they did and paid for them with the subscriber's money. They had also earned huge fees foreports which sent the prices of bond3

rising on the Stock Market.

Dr. Bowring's defence was even more remarkable: "The money means more to me than to the Greek Government" Not so much more, however, it turned out, for it was their own people, the British public who paid in. the end as in the beginning.
