cording to Emergency Bulletin No.
10, of the Extension Service, Uni
versity Farm, Lincoln, Neb. While
the potatoe bug is found mostly in the
eastern part of the state, ana in the
western part south of the Platte
river, early blight is found all over
the state. Early blight may be con
trolled by Bordeaux mixture. Arse
nical poisons are found best to control
bugs. The bulletin gives full direc
tions for spraying against insects
and diseases of potatoes.
Ked Cross Membership.
Mr. J. F. Dishner, O’Neill, Nebr.
Dear Sir: Regarding the member
ship course, we wish .to state, a
person joining Red Cross as an An
nual or Subscribing Member is a
member for one year. Last year
whep the Christmas “drive” was on
a great many who joined a few
months before that time allowed
their old memberships to lapse and
took out new memberships running
fr'om last Christmas to next Christ
mas, as it is the hope of National
headquarters that eventually all
members will allow their member
ships to run from Christmas to
Christmas. This arrangement would
mean but one membership campaign
each year, and that atChristmps time,
the same as they are holding one War
Fund “drive” each year, about the
middle of the year, such as is now
going on.
Should you have members who
joined last May we would urge them
to join again at this time, and then
perhaps next Christmas you can in
duce most of those tor allow their
membership to lapse and take out new
memberships running from Christ
mas to Christmas. Hope this gives
you the information desired.
With kind regards, I remain,
Yours faithfully,

Obituary.
Ewing Advocate: James Stanton
was born March the 28, 1822, in Es
sex County, N. Y., and died May 21,
1918, aged 96 years and two months
within two days. He was married
twice. His first marriage occurred
June 31, 1845. Five children were
born to this union, two daughters and
three sons. The daughters are dead.
The second marriage was solemnized
three years after the Civil War. Five
children were born to this union, three
daughters and two sons. One son is
Mr. and Mrs. Stanton have resided
io this county for thirty-one years.
For eighteen years they lived on a
homestead north of Page. They have
made their home in Ewing for thirteen
years. Mr. Stanton was a vetean of
the Civil War, a member of Co. I,
24th Iowa Infantry. For three years
he fought in defense of his country.
His first wife died a few weeks after
his return from war. The care .and
worry that war brings was more or
less the cause of her death.
Mr. Stanton leaves to mourn his
loss his aged wife, four sons, three
daughters, forty-four grandchildren
and thirty-one great-grandchildren,
besides a large number of relatives
and friends.
Funeral services were held at the
Methodist church Wednesday after
noon, May 22nd, and interment at the
Ewing cemetery. Rev. James E.
Jones officiated.
Community Drying Plant Meeting.
The ladies of the community have
asked that a representative of the
Home Economics Department come
to O’Neill and outline the work of a
community drying plant and canning
plant. This work was successfully
carried on in many of the towns last
year and many more towns are tak
ing up the work this year. Much of
the fruit and vegetables that ordi
narily go to waste can be saved in
this way and much of the drying and
canning can be done cheaper under
the newer processes than it can be
done in the home. The ' service of
Mrs. E. E. Sprague who had charge
of the community drying plant in
East Lincoln last year has been ob
tained through the County Agent’s
office and a meeting will be held at
the High School building at 3 p. m.,
June 11.
We would like to have every wo
man in O’Neill and the surrounding
country to attend.

HAPPY WOMEN.
Plenty of Them in O’Neill, and Good
Reason For It.
Wouldn’t any woman be happy,
After years of backache suffering,
Days of misery, nights of unrest,
The distress of urinary troubles,
When she finds freedom.
Many readers will profit by the fol
lowing.
Mrs. Bowen, O’Neill, says: “I was
having a terrible backache and the
dull, heavy pain was so steady it
seemed to wear me all out. I couldn’t
fet much rest at night and it was all
could do to keep at my work. Many
days I had a severe pain in the back
of my head. My kidneys acted ir
regularly and showed they were out
