Burn ’Em.
If the farmers on every section
of land will co-operate in the burn-
ing of bunch grass and big blue
stem, 985 of every 1,000 chinch
bugs wintering there can be killed.
The bugs are leaving the cornfields
now for their winter homes along
fence rows and in patches of grass
Examination will show where burn-
ing is necessary and co-operation
with your neighbors will make it
an easy matter. November is the
time to burn the grass.
Repeated experiments made by
bug men at the Kansas Agricultur-
al College in various sections of the
state show that fall burning is the
one certain way to prevent the
possibility of a bug invasion the
following summer. But to make
fall burning successful co-operation
of farmers in a neighborhood is
necessary. If Jones burns his grass
and Smith, across the road, doesn’t
the bugs will emerge from the
Smith grass next spring and attack
crops ori both farms.—Naidin In-

Voted in Jail.
Our popular bakery man can
probably claim to be the only one
that prepared and voted u ballot
from jail this election. It happened
this way: The second ward voted
in the new city hall and one of the
cells was was used for a booth.
Mr. C'aple was in the cell preparing
his ballot when Jack Perren, came
along and pushed the door shut.
1 he door is fastened by a spring
lock, and there Mr. Caple was
safely locked in and no key handy.
It took an hour or more to find
the marshal, who carries the key,
to come and release the elector:—
