The county court is now work ing on n revlslnn downward of the indigent lift. Few, If any, will be cut entirely from the Hut. but the fasH fading fund will he nur tured, with the strictest economy, to the end that it will not he ex hausted when cold weather comes. Approximately half of the indi gent fund has been expo tided to date, and at the present rate it will he exhausted by October, un less expenditures urc cut to the marrow. The county court holds that the first consideration should be extended to home folks, and the entire list la now composed of worthy local cases.

They are gen eral feeder, attacking alfalfa, truck crops, melons and weeds. Serious outbreaks are reported to have occurred in C-iUfornia in 1915, 1918 and 1922. Plants should be protected against these caterpillars by a spray of arsenate of lead, at the rate of three or four pounds in 100 gallons of water. Poison bran mash should bo broadcast about the buses of plants late in the afternoon or ui the early even lug. since these pests normally feed at night. The poison bran mash contains the following: 25 pounds of coarse wheat bran, ono pound Parts green, one quart strong molasses. The bran and pari- preen are mixed togother dry and the molasses dis solved In about two gallons . of water. This Is then mixed wl:h the bran and enough .more water to make a crumbly mash, but not too sloppy. .', ' ' Where the caterpillars are com ing in in large numbers from al falfa or waste lands, they may no stopped by a deep trench with the dirt on the dde finely pulverized. The caterpillars will gather n post holes placed about every ten feet in the bottom of the trench, and may be killed there. When the army worms appeaf. immedi ate efforts must he made to con trol them, since they can do sori ous damage in A. short time This pest may not occur again In years. U Ci. GENTXKR.

TTme Vail dj us of -Sound HDiesinsn New Ford engine gives outstanding acceleration, speed and power 1 without sacrificing reliability or eeonomg THE GOOD PERFORMANCE of ihe Ford car, so apparent on every high way, is due largely to the sound mechanical design of the engine. It has outstanding acceleration, speed and power, yet that is only part of its value to you. Greater still is the fact that it brings you all these features without sacrificing either reliability or economy. That is the reason the Ford car has given such satisfactory service to millions of motorists all over the world and has been chosen by so Z iTi 111 r II ill s&Jnr, many large companies that keep accurate cost figures. In every detail of construction it has been carefully planned and made for the work' it has to do. The 'design of the compression chamber is an important factor in the efficiency of the Ford engine. It is built to allow free passage of gases through the valves and to thor oughly mix the fuel by producing turbulence within the cylinders dur ing compression. The spark thus flashes quickly through the whole fuel charge, resulting in quieter and more effective engine performance. Other factors are the direct gravity gasoline feed, the specially (designed carburetor, the new hot spot manifold, aluminum pistons, chrome silicon alloy valves pf larger diameter, statically and dynamically balanced crankshaft and flywheel, simplicity of fie electrical, cooling, lubrication, and fuel systems and accuracy in manufacturing.
