Robert Hudson
StrtS) Twice by
Lightning Bolts
Robert Hudson, Owosso contractor
and former resident of Clare county,
has disprove-*, the theory that lightning never strikes twice in the sanie
place, at least as far as the human
anatomy is concerned. Hudson, former
president of the Michigan Road Builders' Congress and contractor for the
building of the pavement on M-14 (now
US-27) through the city of Clare, was
struck by lightning twice last week.
On Thursday he was knocked unconscious by a bolt of lightning while
supervising construction at the Michigan Sugar Company plant at Owosso.
Although unconscious for several
minutes, the only .after effect was a
slight headache.
While working on construction work
at the Owosso Memorial Hospital the
next day, he was* again knocked down
by lightning which struck the chimney
of the boiler room at the hospital, and
this time suffered an injured eye. Ton
ErcoJe, plant engineer, who stod talking with Hudson nearby, escaped
injury.

Near Farwell
Walter Smedley, a farmer who resides a few miles west of Farwell,
reported to Sheriff Seaver Amble Friday afternoon that his flock of twenty-
nine sheep were missing, and that the
three he had found were wounded in
the neck. Sheriff AmWe. joined Smedley in a search, for the remaining
sheep and by dark that evening nine+
teen animals had been found, and all

manner, and were either dead or dying.
Veterinary Sterling, of Clare, was

Observation and Application of
Insecticides Will Protect Your
-Victory Garden Against Enemies
Insects are present in every garden.
In, many instances they do not appear
to cause damage to plants, but other
times they multiply rapidly and even
destroy the plants, Now, insects are
not difficult to control if certain fundamental practises are followed.
Examine Frequently
First, examine the vegetables in
the garden frequently, both the under
surface of the leaves and the upper.
If a portion of the leaf surface is missing, you may be sure that an insect
produced the * injury. Some insects
work underneath the ground on the
roots or feed within the stems of
plants. This causes the leaves to
wilt. Such plants should be dug up
and examined thoroughly for cut
worms, stalk borers working into the
roots, maggots in the stem, nematodes
or even aphis feeding on the roots.
Dust or Spray
Secopd, apply recommended insecti:
cldes as often as necessary to control
the insects. Expensive equipment is
not liecessary for control purposes;
the type and size will depend largely
on, the size of garden area to be
covered. Insects which feed on the
underoide of leaves may be combatted
by a duster or a liquid sprayer. Dusting ip more popular than liquid spraying because, the dusts are easier to
apply and more thorough application
may be accomplished by the amateur.
Many types of dusters are available
from your local garden stores.
Insects which eat the entire leaf—
the potato bug, the cucumber beetle,
and tomato worms—may be easily
controlled by the use of the dusting
bag, Fill two thicknesses of cheesecloth with dusting powder, bring the
four corners together, and with a twist
of the wrist (or hand) shake the dust
over the plant leaves.
For application of liquids on leaf-
eating bugs, a whiskbroom may be
used. Dissolve or mix the insecticide
in a bucket and dip the whiskbroom
into the liquid and swish it in a circular motion over the plants so the
material will fly off.
Combatting Leaf -Eaters
FLEA BEETLES— Orange-colored
eggs, varying in number from a dozen
to 50, found on the underside of
tomato, potato or vegetable leaves;
hatch within a week into a small,
elongated, oval dark-colored beetles
which have a habit of jumping When
disturbed.
Control—Dust or spray as often as
necessary to keep the plants free from
the insects; use any of the following:
Paris green or variants, arsenate of
lead, or calcium arsenate.
LEAF   HOPPERS —Small,   wedge
shaped insects about one-6ighth of an
inch long; found on underside of plant

Necessity of a war-time maintenance program resulting from decreased revenue was outlined this
Week by State Highway Commission*
er G. Donald Kennedy.
Details of the revamped program
were outlined to members of the 32
county road commissions who maintain state trunklines within their
counties under contracts with the
State Highway Department, which are
now being renewed for the fiscal year
1943, beginning July 1.
Kennedy declared that prospective
gasoline rationing and other war-time
curtailments on the use of automobiles
may he expected to reduce revenue
used to finance road maintenance
throughout Michigan "as much as 50
per cent."
"Because of this condition,',' Kennedy said,' "we cannot plan on
carrying out a normal maintenance
program, and we must concentrate our
activities on essential work to preserve the enormous investment the
State has in its existing highway
system." •
And even if Michigan should escape
gasoline rationing, he added, reduced
driving may be expected, to curtail
highway maintenance revenue,
"Due to loss of revenue, coupled
with the fajet that existing equipment
cannot be replaced," Kennedy explained, ".'many highways cannot receive the attention they have had in
the past and future maintenance work
must be concentrated on vital trunk-
line highways and industrial routes."
Also discussed by the more than 100
county commissioners and road engineers present Vaa the possibility of
pooling existing equipment r already
suggested by the Federal government,
and the increasing problem resulting
from the Iosh of personnel.
One hundred Odd Fellows, Rebekahs, their families aud frieuds
assembled in the Clare I.O.O.F, hall
Sunday afternoon to pay tribute, to
departed brothers and sisters." ' *f "'
Mrs. Fannie Schultz presided and
called the meeting to order at 3:30
o'clock. Miss Elva Lea Mcintosh
rendered a piano solo, "The Wayside
Chapel." The audience sang, "America" and prayer was offered by Mrs.
Will Garchow.
• In observance of Flag Day, the
Pledge to the Flag was given, and
Mrs. Eva Schlafley, gave many interesting facts and statements concerning
the flag. After this, the group sang,
"Michigan My Michigan."
Mrs. Will Garchow, a member of the
Clare Victory Speakers Bureau, was
presented and she gave an inspirational talk on "Home Morale."
At this time, the Rebekah Memorial
Staff exemplified the memorial ceremony in a very fitting manner. A
beautiful garden of flowers had been
arranged for this service and made
an appropriate setting for the occasion. The sisters taking part were
Mrs. Schultz, soloist; Mrs. Alba Howlett, chaplain; Mrs. Elizabeth Mcintosh, the angel; Mrs. Eleanor Lehr,
organist. The eight speakers were
Mrs. Margaret Irwin, Mrs. Florence
Irwin, Mrs. Neareine Miller, Mrs.
Effie Harvey, Mrs. Pearl Osborn, Mrs.
Etta Howard, Mrs. Minnie Edick and
Mrs, Vera Fisher.
Following this impressive ceremony,

and talked to the group on "Civilian
Defense." The meeting closed with

Christian Loeffler, for many years
a resident of this community and city,
who was found guilty of the charge
of urging insubordination of the United
States military forces, by a Federal
Court jury in Bay City June 3, was
sentenced by Federal Judge Arthur J.
Tuttle Tuesday to spend the next six
years in a new Federal prison at
Terre Haute, Indiana.
Earlier the Court had denied a petition for a new trial. In denying the
plea, the Court said he'felt that testimony in the trial had demonstrated
clearly that Loeffler had "deep rooted"
ties of regard for his homeland, more
so than the country iu which he was
living.
Loeffler admitted talking in a local
tavern wth the soldiers, who remained
overnight here enroute to Fort Brady,
but strongly denied the Government
charges.

Voluntary Cooperation of People
in Conservation and Purchase of
Bonds Necessary fo§ War Effort
Will gasoline be rationed in the Midwest, curtailing Michigan's $4,000,000
annual tourist business? Will the
purchase of War Stamps and Bonds
become mandatory in a nation that
prides itself in its unity in peace audi
in. war? Will other stringent measures
become necessary to- win this war?
The answer, Mr. and Mrs. Citizen, is
largely up to you. We are fighting
foes who will stop at nothing, even to
starving their own people, in their
maniacal efforts to gain power. We
must do all within our power to win
this war, realizing that each small
individual effort, though it be small
within itself, will be multiplied by the
millions of our population.
Buy Bonds Voluntarily
A War Bond pledge campaign has
recently been completed here and now
the retail merchants are organizing in
an effort to encourage the sale of War
Stamps through their establishments,
with Murl Houghton, of Clare, as
Clare county chairman. Michigan has
taken the lead in bond and stamp sales
in states with May quotas in excess
of twenty-million dollars and if we
keep our state in the lead we will be
doing a great deal to make it unnecessary to make the purchase of
bonds compulsory.
Conserve! Rubber
.A campaign is now under way to
collect every available' scrap of'rubber
for the government, with the oil
industry paying a penny a pound
through its local dealers for all rubber
brought in, and turning it over to the
government for $25 per ton, with the
difference going to the USO, Navy
Relief, Army Relief and American
Red Cross. i
If   anyone   having   a   substantial
amount of rubber, who cannot bring }£*
in, will notify Dale Barber or Altea*
Crum, the rubber Will be called for,-
It  is   hoped   that   by' making- alP
possible scrap rubber available to the *
government; by voluntary conserving'"
of rubber by making every load a
"pay load," whether it be produce or
people, by-neighbors doubling up when,
they go to market, to work, to church,* ■
or ok other trips; and by economical
use of automobiles and gasoline; we"
may avert the rationing of gasoline in
the    Central    States    where    ample-
supplies of gasoline are produced but
rationing  is   being   considered as   a -
means of rubber conservation.
