Carmine Gets 7-2
Win Over La Grange
Carmine’s half-pint pitcher
Issleib allowed La Grange’s
little fellows only 4 hits and
fanned 13 here Wednesday
afternoon to lead his mates to
a 7 to 2 decision over the locals
and to lift them also into a tie
for first place in the circuit
with La Grange.
La Grange’s two tallies came
in the second chanter when
Second Sacker Glennie Pav-
lik homered to right, tallying
Larry Stephens, who had
walked, ahead of him.
Although the visitors regis-
tered only five hits off Pitch-
ers Manuel Schultz and James
Baca, ten miscues by the local
Lilliputians contributed to their
diamond downfall, Carmine
scoring three runs in the last
frame on four errors in a row.
Top slugger for the winners
was Shortstop Ullrich who
walloped out a round-tripper
in the third, and who tallied
four runs.
Schultz, who hurled 5 frames
for La Grange, was nipped for
5 hits, 4 runs. He fanned 5, hit
1. Baca, who tossed the final
chapter, allowed no hits, 3
runs, whiffed 1 walked 1.
The Carmine victory was
its third in five starts—the
same record as that of La
Grange. The two teams share
top spot in the circuit.
Here Sunday, fans have op-
portunity to see all four Little
League teams in action. Car-
mine plays Weimar for the
first half championship and La

Weevil Control
In Stored Grain
For the benefit of farmers
who are interested in control-
line weevils in stored erain.
and wt’o do not have air-tipht
cribs thnt can be fumi°ated.
rpc dts of tbe new weevil con-
trol method which were de-
monstrated in Fsvettn county
Ins* veer ere h<*r"w'*h «iven
hv r'nuntv Acent .T C. Yenrv
The new material is called
Pvrenonc Grain Protectant
Dost.
Th» f'"ir demonstrations in-
nhtdnd thrnp cribs vmn com
in *hn shlirV iust os it had been
fathered fmm the field and
one on eombioe mair» iust es
it nemo from th« combine. The
rate of annheation was one
—o,|nd to pooh ten bushels of
♦ho eorn in *V.o shuck sDrinkled
hv hand on the eorn as it was
not in the crib in lavers not
over one foot in depth. The
meizo was treated in a similar
'•■a” in layers of six inches in
denth.
Tn ever case the cribs were
♦hornimhlv cleaned out and
♦ho walls and floors dusted
-, thick coating of the
P^p Dust.
Infestation counts were tak-
en at the beginning of the de-
monstration when the corn
was no* in the crib in Septem-
ber and insnected regular dur-
ing the winter months The
final eheck in March showed
vorv little increase in we»vil
infestation in the outside lay-
ers of com or maize and prac-
tically no increase in weevil
damage in the main part of
the erib. The top layer of grain
sorehum, about 1/2 inch deep,
showed about a 10% infesta-
tion of weevil and the rest of
it none. On the com crib the
onlv increase in infestation
was on the top layer about one
foot.
The manufacturers of this
material have a wholesale deal-
er in the countv and the local
stores can get all this material
they need by contacting their
wholesale dealer. y
Mr. Yeary added:
“It looks like this material
will do a good job of control-
ling weevil in a slatted crib at
a cost of not more than 1 to
2% of the cost of the grain.

CO-OP
(Continued from Page 1)
greatly decreased the number
of outages during the past
year, the report revealed. The
installations were made by co-
op personnel which remains
the same in number despite
the growth of the system and
increasing maintenance re-
quirements as it grows older.
Mr. Luecke said that 27c
out of every dollar paid for
electric service during 1950
will be credited back to mem-
bers as “contributed capital.”
This compares with 22c in
1949 and 18c in 1948. So far
this year, the credit runs
around 25c.
“The amount of capital each
patron contributes,” the man-
ager explained, “will eventual-
ly be returned, however, not
until such time as the co-oper-
ative has paid back most of
the money borrowed from the
government and has a suffi-
cient reserve set up to take
care of any emergency.” He
described the co-op as being
in a healthy financial condi-
tion.
J. C. McBride of the Appli-
cation and Loan division of the
Rural Electrification Adminis-
tration conducted a short open
forum on the matter of organ-
izing a rural telephone system
similar to the electric co-op. He
discussed procedure and new
development in that field, and
also answered various ques-
tions.
No action was taken at thia
time, however, because of the
limited number of returns to
questionnaires sent out to
members
On this point, the manager
reported that 392 members had
returned their questionnaire to
date. Of them 364 were in-
terested and 28 were not in-
terested in forming a telephone
co-op.
He added:
“Approximately 4000 ques-
tionnaires were sent out to
members and so far 10 per
cent have answered. While 93
per cent of the members that
returned their questionnaire
are in favor of the movement,
we should have at least a 1000
or 25 per cent of the question-
naires returned before we can
say we have a cross-sectional
opinion of our members.” He
urged that additional replies
be returned as soon as possible.

T)ardon us if wc play switch-
F man with a familiar railroad
phrase, but vve aim to flag down
some certain people ...
Those folks vvho’vc always had a
great big yen for a new Buick, hut
a big worry that Buick prices ran
too high for their budgets.
Now we'll have to grant you that
—on style and beauty and size and
impressive appearance — a 1951
Buick looks like a pretty high
price tag.
And we’ll have to grant, too, that
the zooming power and the luxu-
rious ride and the heavyweight
steadiness you get in a Buick
would also indicate prices beyond
the reach of most people.
But honestly, you'll find nothing
farther from the truth when you
note the price tags on 1951 Buicks.
You’ll find that beauty with the
big-power, big-mileage, valve-in-
head Fireball Engine is really
within your budget picture—with
prices starting below those of
many of today’s sixes.
And you’ll have to admit then and
there that you can have Buick
_room and comfort, can have
Buick ride and handling,ran have
Buick style and size—for little, if
any, more than you’ve been pay-
ing for lesser cars.
That leaves the next step up to
you—stopping in to see us.
Come in soon, look over the
Special, Super or Roadmaster
you’ve always wanted — and let
that happy glow go surging all
through you as you sign up for
your smart-buy lluick.
