More than 700 loans, practically

been made since the loans were re

Suffer Loss by Fire
At the home of Carl Stander, Sr.,
on last Monday there was found a
tire in his hog house, which was the
occasion of considerable excitement
and worry, as the structure was in
close proximity to a number of other
buildings and the weather dry as
well as the buildings.
An alarm was turned in to both
Greenwood and Ashland, the fire de
partments from each of these towns
responding. As they hastened to the
scene, the fire made further headway
and caught in a corn crib containing
two thousand bushels of corn, also a
irranarv in which there were thirteen
hundred bushels of oats and seven
hundred bushels of wheat.
There was some insurance on the
property but not near enough to care
for the loss that was sustained, even
at the prevailing low prices for the
grain destroyed.
The two departments, when they
arrivt d. were only able to prevent the
flames from spreading to the house
and barn.
50-Piece Band Here August 12

The band is being brought to

A. H. DUXBURY,
(Seal) a3-3w County Judge.
Denver, Colo. , July 30. "Don't
let 'hoppers get the jump on you,"
suggests the Agricultural Depart
HM p.t of the Burlington and Colo
rado & Southern railroads. An adage
as old as Abraham states that "a
.-titch in time saves nine" and its
troth never was more apparent than
In the prevention of crop damage by
the early poisoning of grasshoppers.
"Young 'hoppers have the mjDBt
oracious appetites and on this ac
count are easily poisoned. BecaUM
they have no wings they do not
cigrate rapidly and if killed while
yet young, little crop damage Is suf
fered. Due to migration of the older
hoppers over wider areas, any de
toy in a pisoning program is accom
panied not only by severe crop damage-
but also by increased difficulty
in poisoning, and a greater 'hopper
hazard during the next crop season.
Nt sounder advice could be given
th in 'Poison now and repeat as often
qs new broods of young 'hoppers
hatch.'
"Any poisoning program that does
rot take full account of the life
habits of 'hoppers will not succeed,"
further warns this railroad's agricul
tural department. "Grasshoppers
nrofer high perches and to
poison on the ground between tall
weeds is just another good way of
throwing away money. An ideal place
to poison is along the eaten down
cdee of an alfalfa field before the
.-loots of hay become too tall, or
n. round the edges of infested winter
v. heat fields in the fall. If 'hoppers
migrate across the poisoned area go
ing from their feeding grounds to
roost on tall weeds at the edge of
.he field at night, so much the bet
ter. The main thing to keep in mind
is That the poison must be arranged
hat the grasshopper contacts it in
his regular daily habits. To attempt
to destroy these insects by scattering
l poison bait on the ground between
thick high weeds or corn Is just as
foolish as to place coyote 'poison at
fie top of some tall tree. Neither
plan, of course, would be effective."
Other important items in 'hopper
poisoning stressed by this bulletin
are: "Mix the poison only a short
while before spreading, using only
enough water to form a crumbly
mass: spread at desirable locations
early in the morning on bright sunny
days; do not scatter in chunks and
idles, but spread in such a manner
as to cause the poison to break into
(me particles. If a poison formula
can be obtained from your Agricul
tural College or county agent, use
ir. if not. the following is suggested:
Shorts free bran lOOlbs.
(Boll arsenic In ten gallons of
water with 15 pounds of sal
soda until dissolved
Banana oil 3 ounces
"If desired, four gallons of mo
lasses may be added to the water
solution. Mix solution thoroughly
vith the bran and if necessary add
sufficient water to form a damp
' nimbly mass. Sack preparatory to
;?rly spreading."
"An old buggy or light wagon Is
an excellent conveyance from which
to "sow" the poisoned bran. If prop
erlv sown the health of livestock
will not be endangered, but care
should be exercised not to permit
livestock to have access to the poi
Bon solution or the poisoned bran.
When the process has been complet
ed, thoroughly wash all containers
U u 6 in the preparation of the poi
son." ny O. O. Waggener, Asst.
Agri. Agent C. B. & Q. and C. & S.

ALIENS LEAVE THE STATES
Washington Ten thousand more
immigrant aliens left the United
States than entertained during the

department, announcing immigration
figures for the year, said the tide be-
R&n turning against immigration last
November with the result that Inert
were 30.482 more departures than
arrivals fluting the eight months,
Immigrants admitted tf) the country

CEO? SHIFT IS REPORTED
Washington Crops have so shift
ad that the resulting problems are
believed by the agricultural service
department of the United States
chamber of commerce to be in press
ing Meed of solution. In a report,
the department said the use of me
C ha nixed equipment had enabled
farmers to grow crops in areas form
erly considered unprofitable. The
wheat, cotton and corn belts have
oeen pushed westward, while pro
duction of those crops in the old
centers has declined sharply.
'tThe speed with which regional
shifts in crops like cotton and wheat
have 1-cen taking place, and the rap
idity ot the development of machine
methods in agricultural production
In certain regions," the report said,
"are creating serious problems of re
adjustment to new conditions."

KEARNEY MAY GET STATION
Washington Examiner Hyde re
commended to the radio commission
that it grant the application of the
Central Broadcasting corporation to
move radio station KGFW from Rav
enna to Kearney. Nebr. Removal,
he said, would enable the station to
serve a much larger population.
"The program resources and po
tential financial support of the lat
ter community (Kearney)," said the
the report, "are proportionately
greater. No interference of any kind
in the service of other stations, such
as would tend to destroy their value
to the public, appears likely to result
from the proposed move." The reiKirt
is subject to approval, modification
or rejection by the commission which
is now in recess.
