Last week Ccunt.y Agent Osier sent
out -one hundred, notices to Washtenaw county apple growers advising
that the spray for the control of the
suinilnier "bro™.d of owlling ninth should

These notices have been sent to

rlocist. Professor R. H. Pettit, Michigan State college, this spray must
be applied by August seventh.
The usual spray used at this time
is liquid lime sulphur, 2y_. gallons,
and lead arsenate powder. 3 pounds
to 100 gallons of water. This spray
will 'control the second brood of cod^
ling .moth and also serve as protection from apcole scab.
A complete spray calendar containing requirements for spraying all
kinds of -fruit and garden vegetables
can be secured through the county
agent's office, Ann Arbor.

Saline's 1926 chautauqua has come
and gone, and pleasing memories of
strong programs will linger in the
minus cf all who attended for many
weeks.
The opening number, "The Bubble,"
proved to be a very enjoyable caiiedy
depicting .the trials, struggles, tribulations arid, joys of "a German merchant and his family, and despite a
near caststrophe wnen the head of the
househpuld dabbled in oil, even as»
you and 1, everything turned out love-<
ly in the end.
The second day's programs consisted of delightful musical numbers
by Leah miiles and James Quellett,*
miagic and illusions of a mystifying
nature by Frye & Co., and a worth
while lecture by Ward B. Flaxington
on the subject, "The Patriotism of
Peace." Mr. Flaxington is a rapid-
fire orator of exceptional ability, and
he told us miuic-h of his experience in
the war zone of Europe during the
World' war, and stressed the fact that
wliile the patriotism of war is strong
within us all, *he patriotism of peace
should he uppermost in the mind's 0-
the people.
Green and his Band filled the third
day's sessions full to overflowing
with gcod imiusic. interspersed by a
reasonable  amount of comedy.
The Harmony Maids gave two excellent programs on Saturday and in
the evening, Dr. Harry G. Hill gave a
very instructive lecture on "An Undiscovered World," He toli of dream
and thsftr causes, ithe power of
thought on our lives and character,
and our 'undeveloped powers- and their
possibilities. It was such an address
as should be possessed in booklet
form, that one .might read and reread -until all the .good points and
suggestions could be assimilated and
put to practical use.
Well attended nnion services were
held In the tent Sunday morning, as
has been the ieustom here, and the
iliiusic iby the double chior was very
■enjoyable.
In the afternoon a concert by The
Parkinson Ensemble, three excep-
iorially talented yuna: lady musicians,
jps-oved very 'deTtglitf ul.
After the Ensemble numbers a
young lady, who was born in Damascus, but -who has spent several years
in Ainierica, told of conditions in the
"Near East in a charming manner,
holding the (close attention of her
audience for more than an hour,
Although frequently interrupted by
the downpour of rain, she was ever
•gracious and shade a fine impression
on her audience. She appeared in
native costume, the ornaments of
which she explained weighed in the
neighborhood  of  forty pounds,.
The three-act drama, *A Message
From Mars;*' was given at night, and
brought to a close one of the best
.•series of entertainments and lectures
•ever offered a Saline aiidience.
The attendance throughout was 'unusually good, and the task of securing pledges for the fourteenth annual* chautauqua in 1927 was comn
pleted In record time and -without
taking much time from, the programs.
The required number of guarantors
was secured and the contract duly
signed.
Too much credit cannot be given
the committee in charge and the officers, who did so much to make the
season a successful one, and they retire with a most worthy record of accomplishment over the past several
years. New officers were chosen for
the ensuing year as follows:
President—Miss Hazel  Fuoss.
'Vice President—Walter Braekel.
Secretary—Walter Towler.
Treasurer—Harry Holmes.
Ticket Committee—Misses Erma
Heininger, Jula Gordon, Helen Walker. Doris Wheeler and Harry Friis. '
John L. Osborn, one of the contestants Cor nomination for the office of:
sheriff on the Republican ticket, has
withdrawn -from the race and states
that he will give his entire support to
George V. Cook, one of the other contestants for the nomination in the
Republican primaries.
Mr, Osborn in making this withdrawal miakes the following statement: "I have taken this step after
considerable deliberation, and want
to give my friends my reasons for it

GEORGE V. COOK
and character of Mr. Cook I am convinced that he will, if he is elected,
give the county a clean, effi; ient, and
conscientious administration. Mr.
Cook has served Washtenaw county
and the Federal, government with
Si eat success. I, therefore, 'urge m,y
i.riends to support Mr. Cook in the
primaries and the election."
Simultaneously George V. Cook-
made the announcement that in .case
he Is elected to the office o'f sheriff,
he will appoint John L. Osborn as his
undersheriff. In making this statement in regard to his intentions Mr.
Cook stated: "I feel that John L.
Oalborn is a young man of fine character with a splendid overseas record
and in his present capacity as dep-*
u.y sheriff.. Should Is be elected., we
shall be able to give Washtenaw
county an administration that stands
for high efficiency, economy, and
courtesy.

Last'week the Detroit papers car-j
ried the  account    of    triplets being;
Ibo'rn to Mr.  and Mrs. Ed. -Martin in \
that ;city.    Few people  here  realize
they knew Mrs. Martin, but she was;
formerly  a  teacher    In   pur  schools j

The marriage of Miss Helen Stelni-
way, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Steiniway of Freedom, and Mr.
Floyd Walz, son of Mr. and Mrs. John
Walz, took place Saturday afternoon
in Emanual Evangelical church, of
Manchester, Rev. A. A. Schoen officiating, using the impressive ring
ceremony.—Chelsea Standard.
Mr. Cook, who is a successful business man, has, had several years experience as an officer of the law. He
served as deputy sheriff under Col.
Ambrose A. Pack four years, then
received, an appointment as Federal
prohibition officer for eastern Michigan, in which IcaPacity he served for
three 3-ears.
While deputy sheriff of Waishtenaw
coaunty ifor nine lyears, Mr. Ccok
earned an enviable record in the apprehension and arrest of criminals.
Four years ago he! was' runner up in
.the office of sheriff. At that time lie
rec-eived'"392 out of 112 votes in Saline
township, Democrats and. Republicans alike giving their support,, in
spite of party lines. He carried Ypsilanti, and several other townships
by a good majority. Even Ann Arbor,
the home of his opponent, gave him
a heavy vote.
A telegram from Thomas H. Brennan, deputy prohibition administrator for Michigan reads as follows::
"George V. Cook was an agent tf this
department for three years. He is
a bar.'', faithful * worker. Reteord O.

It was reported at Wampler's fake
Monday that a fish seine had been
found in the west end of the lake and
a number of (bass were found .in it.
Who owns the Seine, and how frid
he succeed in putting it there without being seen"! Time and again we
have counted- seven ,to double that
number o'f iboats on the lake at one
ti.nie. Most of the boats contained:
fishermen and women, but there are
always motor boats speeding around
the lake at any time of day or evening. SO we repeat, how could a man
plant and have a seine without being
seen? Also it has been said that men
do catch fish there and Sell them.
We have no recollection of a game
warden being cunning enough to apprehend the fellow or fellows who unlawfully catch fish out of Wampler's
with a seine.—Manchester sEnterprise.
