FOE OF POTATO BUG,
Farmer That Plants Thrive
Where Strange Insect Appears
Observes
A. Lyman, of Crandall, near Cou-
dersport, has noticed a peculiar species
of bug in the potato patches, and has
taken pains to watch them, at first be-
lieving them to be a new variety of
pest. Close observation showed him
that the newcomers were slaying the
destructive potato bug, so he sent one
to the State zoologist at Harrisburg,

The taxpayers attention is called to
the fact that the borough interest tax
is one-half that of the borough tax,
The borough tax includes streets,
light and all incidentals, This is not
because the borough debt is so large,
but because an exorbitant vote of in-
terest is paid on the debt. The interest
rate could be cut into halves if the
members of the council would take a
step into the path of economy.
Can the readers tell what the stripes
on the barber pole signify? You see
the pole with its stripes and you
know there is a barber shop back of
the pole, but here the knowledge of
the average person ceases, In the
early days barbers did the bleeding for
the community and surgeons were not
as plentiful as now. The first thing
thought necessary, way down to the
time of George Washington's death,
was that any patient should be bled,
Tap him, and take a few ounces of
blood from him, no matter how weak
he might be. When Washington was
at the last gasp, the fools bled him.
Well, the red stiipes on a barber pole
mean the red ribbon bandages that
barbers bound over the wounds caused
by bleeding people. That's all. When
they got through with a plethoric
man, of full habit and had tapped him
