Rinker, in talking to Rev. John Weeks, pastor of the United Methodist church of North Webster, learned that most of the 150 persons in the Epworth Forrest area were '‘interested” in becoming a part of the town. The people in the Eckert addition are also interested. This was all in the form of general discussion as none of the parties were present. President James Griener stated that improved facilities would encourage more building in the area and help in the growth of the community. President Griener also stated that Bus Likens has completed the repairing of town streets and it is believed all hides have been patched. DeWitt Mullett, a board member, said he had talked to Bill Brandenburg concerning garbage and trash pick-up service and the latter would like to know definitely how many customers would want the service. Details on this matter are to be worked out later. Attorney Robert Reed was consulted by Vice president Paul Royer about the re-districting and stated he had completed an ordinance, which if the board accepted, could be printed in newspapers and maps of the three wards could be made. One of the purposes for the survey was so persons could ascertain where representation is for the fall election. Attorney Reed read the description of the boundaries of the three wards. The ordinance was accepted unanimously and will be in effect following publication. Clerk Rinker is to have the ballots printed and persons wishing to file on either the Democrat or. Republican ticket for a seat on the town board must file by September 1. The election will be held on Tuesday Nov. 2. Cumulative Fund The board approved a legal notice to establish a 10 cent cumulative building fund presented by the town attorney. The use of the fund will be for sewage disposal plants and sewers to convey sanitary sewage to such plants and other necessities concerning sewage. This 10 cent tax will be levied on each SIOO of taxable real and personal property within the taxing district to provide money for said fund. This tax will be levied in 1971. payable in 1972 and annually thereafter for a period not to exceed five years. A public meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on June 21 in the town hall.

AG. NOTES By MR. ED
From time to time I’ll be writing a bit of agricultural news for this paper — weekly I hope — if I can find the time. It’ll come under the same title “Ag. Notes.” This week’s Ag. Note is aimed at you corn growers. I recently visited a man who planted a crop of corn in a field that previously had been in sod for four or five years. When he hailed he said that a bug had wrecked his field. He said it just seemed to have stuck its beak into the stalks and sucked the life out of it. Sure enough, that’s what it had done. The little begger is called a Bill bug. It is about a half inch long, soil colored, six legged with FFA Judging Teams Win And Lose At Meets By MR. ED The Wawasee high school FFA dairy judging team comprised of Lee Beer. Fred Beer and Mike Shenefield will journey to Indianapolis to participate in the state FFA and 4-H dairy judging contest on June 10 They earned this trip by placing second overall out of 16* teams representing eight counties. June 5 at the Area 10 judging contests held at Hamlet on the Starke county fairgrounds. Lee Beer was high points man on the team and placed second overall in the contest. Fred and Mike also did very well and placed well up in the top 10 individuals in the contest. The general livestock judging team, consisting of Brent and Greg Kaiser. Brian and Craig Tucker did not fare as well as they went down in honorable defeat with a fifth placing overall which does not earn them the right to attend the c state contests (only the top three teams from the area contest are eligible for the state contest). Both teams and their coaches (Mr. Ed and Dan Beer who helped with the dairy team) have spent many hours of practice judging at the farms of Cap Beer. Bud Beer, Deaton and Watkins and Harold Yoder for dairy- and Glen Byler. Devon Davis, Leon Tucker and Everette Tom. Jr., for general livestock. In summation, I know that today we talk a lot about education and new teaching and learning methods but I think we shouldn’t forget about learning by doing, one of the oldest forms of education: These boys and others learned to judge, did it to learn, will use it to live and hopefully will live to serve with the knowledge gained. This is vocational education at its best. Note to FFA members — next meeting is June 15 at Wawasee high school. Bring your softball equipment. Attending Polygraph School At Chicago Detective sergeant D. R. Thornburg of the Elkhart county police department is attending a final two-week session at Keeler Polygraph Institute. Chicago. 111. He attended a six-week session last year and following this twoweek session will receive a diploma. A New Paris resident, he is formerly of Syracuse.
a quarter inch mouth part (beak). Symptoms of infestation are dying corn plants (just seem to dry up), holes in the leaves about the size of a pencil lead and tell tale small holes at the base of the corn stalk where the insect has burrowed down to the base of the corn plant. In this case the farmer replanted the field after treating it with an insecticide. Just a parting suggestion: YYki might check any fields you have which were in sod that are now in corn this year for the first time after the sod. The Bill bug might be visiting By thejrtay I am available in the summer for this type of problem or any others you might have. Just give me a call, I’m in the phone book.
