Savage, National Commander of the Legion. More than 10,000 net reservations for the Legion trans-Atlantic Journey have already been received at National This is more than double the reservations for any similar I pilgrimage. The steady stream of checks covering reservations from every state in the Union is daily increasing In volume. With 'three months to go every indication is that the full quota set two years ago for the Legion movement will be reached before the ships shove off early In September. Examination of the booking records show that New York is leading all i other states in the total number of Pennsylvania is second, California third, Illinois fourth arid Ohio fifth.

Reservations have been received from Alaska, Hawaii ar.d China. California veterans, who must cross the entire continent before embarking for Parts, have ranked high in the total number of reservations from the first AU ipace nas oeen wxen on a num ber of ships In the movement, in-1 eluding advance sailings of the S. S. President Roosevelt and S. S.

President Harding. Warning Isjssued toLegion-naires to make reservation at once. There is now choice of accommodations available both in Paris housing and steamship. With the great number of reservations received dally, the space Is going fast Legionnaires who postpone until late in the movement the making of reservation will be In the position of taking what is left The Legion has been engaged two years in planning the great overseas movement, which has reached more than doubie the number of any similar movement Travel arrangements made by the Legion that include concessions by American and foreign railroads, steamship lines and foreign governments will save at least $200 each for the veterans over the coast of a similar trip at ordinary travel rates. NEW BUG THREATENS TO DESTROY POTATO CROP Measures Taken To Prevent Spread Of Blister Beetle To Other Sections "sr i (By International News Service Oadsden, June 0.

Several calls for help to aid in destroying a newly-found bug which threatens to ruin potato crops In this section have been received; by courijy, agent x. Upon investigation the bug was found to be the Blister beetle, which will completely destroy a potato patch within a few hours. Measures, are being taken to combat the bug and It Is 'hoped, to check its spread to other communities. OF TURTLE DOVES HOPZ! BUT I SOT MV tAR PEALED PER. TURTLE SIGNS YEAH? CLASSIFIED ADVERHSEMENTS Glass factories and coal mines hnd kept tbe butcher, the baker; the candlestick 1 maker and the banker busy the year round In Point Marlon, Pennsylvania.

Hired men hjft the farms followed by the farm owners to he attractive wages. Suddenly labor saving machinery was brought In to the old hand tuwfu-od window glass factories. The coal business took a drop and hundreds of people had to And new employment. Savings accounts dwindled. Deposits of the two banks dropped off almost a million dollars.

"Bring In more Industries," was being sung at luncheon clubs all over the land, every town seemed; to be advertising unlimited -water supply, cheap fuel and free factory sites. Competition was keen and the reward doubtful. Tbe question came, "Why not stimulate the agricultural pursuits of the community whlcb have lain dormant so long." Farm Income might be Increased and prorincUou costs lowered In many Instances. Tbe first move of one of tbe banks was the purchase of healthy chicks' These were furnished by tbe bank at wholesale to Interested farmers! payment to be made y.note payabu In six months, Tbe bank followed through 'by aid I tig In tbe dlsaemlna. tlon of culling and feeding knowlmlK' and by helping to market the cock erels which In most Instances pain tbe Initial cost of all the chicks.

Whan tha tinmnVlna hoffon in I urn yellow, plans were-IaTd for a great community exhibit. Besides the poul-produce exhibits try display, larm from the surrounding country were entered. Altogether it made an Impressive exhibit, bringing home the lesson to Point Marlon people that there were great undeveloped opportunities within their own door-yards which they had overlooked. Tbe annual exhibit will be continued In tbe future Jy tbe A horse show Is sponsored, better seed corn and seed potatoes ar emade available to the farmers for planting and tbe bank will continue to build agriculture la the community as a sound basis on which to work. "It will probably be some time before we shall see larger fruits of our endeavors," the banker says, "but we are looking ahead ten to fifteen years." THE NEW MENACE Hitch-hiking its way towards tbe nation's corncrlb, tbe European corn borer Is threatening to destroy crops to tb value ot billions of dollars and chas skyward the cost of production.

If Tt worms its way into tbe Wabash add Mississippi Valleys, It can readily float downstream, spread out and become more difficult to control. Proper, cooperation ot all concerned will, no doubt enable us to continue to grow corn profitably. Bulletin, Bankers Association. A corn and apple show is to ba an annual. feature at bank In, Baltimore County, Maryland.

Another banker has been able to get bis county to "thinking corn," over 500 farmers planting Improved corn. Many other bankers In the; state are giving moral support and funds to this work!

i The American Legion department of Alaska, at the request of the governor, conducted the contest among the school children of Alaska, and when the 'winner was chosen the Legion asked the legislature to send the boy and the flag to Washington for presentation of the flag to the president The legislature voted to 'do this, and then went further by appropriating money to pay the boy's expenses to Paris. i Designs submitted by school children from all parts of Alaska.
