not go wrong in buying these fertil-

cause the very first essential to sucoess-

crops, and in order to produce the sat-

ward, while playing with matches in

Potter Twp. Orop Conditions,
The crop conditions in Potter town-
ship are about up to the average, with
the exception of the corn. There are
many flelds in which the corn is very
small, and how it will be able to make
acrop is a mystery. The early plant.
ed corn is good, and the prospeets for
a crop are very fair.
(Oats are about up te the average, the
crop having made marked gains dur
ing the past two weeks. Barley isa
poor crop.
Potatoes present a promising appear-
ance. There is a good stand in most
flelds. The blossoming was profuse.
The wheat has all been stored, and
is of a good quality. The crop, on an
Dr. Bitner on Mosquitoes.
Dr. H. F, Bitner Friday of last week
gave his third talk of a series on ‘*Mos-
quitoes’’ before the Chautauqua at Me.
CGiretua. He pointed out the fact that
care should be exercised to have the
top of cisterns »o tight that the mos-
quitoes cannot enter. No water should
be left standing until it becomes stag-
nant. A little kerosene oll put on the
surface of water containing mosquito
eggs and larvae will quickly destroy
both eggs and wrigglers, One ounce
of oil is sufficient to cover properly
fifteen feet of water surface. It does
not require renewal of applieation
