Wednesday, November 21, 1945 •.OHE LIVONIAN Page Seven Parkside Bar Robbed of Cash Thieves early Monday morning broke into the Parkside bar at Newburg and robbed the place of over $200, according to Walter Beglinger, owner of the place. Apparently they were fright- ened away before they had com- pleted their robbery, as a case of whiskey which had been removed from inside was found by sheriff', deputies on the outside of the building. The jute box had been broken open and all the money removed from it. Officers say that this is but one of a series of robberies that have been taking place in Wayne coun- ty in recent weeks. The place was broken, into sometime between 2:30 o'clock and 4:30 o'clock Monday. Mapes Excellent Record; Resigns After completing an outstand- ing record as chairman of one of the important war salvage com- mittees, Mrs. R. D. Merriam has resigned the place to which she was assigned early in the war pe- riod. Her duties were to direct the collection of highly important fats and materials for war muni- tions in Plymouth. While all salvage committees of Plymouth made good records, the consistency and the ever -lasting efforts of Mrs. Merriam and her assistants made the work of this group outstanding. Month after month, the collection of fats in Plymouth steadily climbed during the meatless days. One sometimes wondered where the saving housewives of Plymouth could find the amounts of fats that were turned in. It took plenty of careful saving and skrimping to do so. Even though the war has been over for months, there still is need for fats and as a result Mrs. Mer- riam and her committee kept making the collections. The final collection made last month amounted to 780 pounds. This will probably be the last fats collection drive made in Plym- outh unless another chairman is appointed to carry on the work. The government will be in need of this essential product for some- time to come. Keep 'em roi*firxgi We mean dollars! Buy U. S. Savings Bond. and Stamps. PALACE I' Beer - Liquor - Wine ED.

Why Pheasant Hunting is Poor Plymouth hunters and farm- ers have two standard explana- tions for the pheasant shortage this fall but they do not agree as to which is the more important. Hunters say Loxes are chiefly responsible for the scarcity of pheasants and that wet weather has been a contributory cause. Farmers lay the shortage to wet weather in the first instance, and place foxes second. Authority for the attitude of the two groups is the conserva- tion department's game division which has compiled reports of observers at the Prairie Farm near Saginaw, Rose Lake and Swan Creek wildlife experiment stations operated by the depart- ment, and at the Barry, Dansville, Waterloo, Port Huron, Tuscola, and Deford game areas in down- state counties. The department admits that determine how mugh of the de - pheasant hunting has been poor- crease is due to fewer birds, and er than the average of the eight how much is due to difficulty in years 1937-44, but declares that flushing them." delayed harvesting of farm crops Field observations indicate due to wet weather has resulted there have been somewhat fewer in cover that is probably heavier hunters in the field than in 1944, than in any previous hunting although - license sales may not season. bear out this supposition.

The conservation department's institute for fisheries research is conducting experiments to learn whether methods of use can be worked out that will not imperil fish in hatcheries. Similar ex- periments are reported to have been undertaken by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. Meanwhile the department warns cottagers and persons liv- ing in the vicinity of lakes and streams that careless use of the new insecticide can result in de- struction of fish if the chemical compound finds its way into such bodies of water. Hatchery superintendents have been instructed not to use the in- secticide until institute experi- ments are completed. 3uy U. : , i-leii-nae fonds and stamps, the I.O.U. of the Red. White and Blue?

THE LIVONIAN Wednesday, November 21, 1945 Sure Killer for Poison Ivy Has Been Developed Says State Both'farmers and city property owners will be interested in the new weed killer 2-4-D, which is now being placed on the market'' by several companies, believes B. H. Grigsby, research assistant in Botany, at Michigan State Col- lege. Mr. Grigsby has conducted ex- tensive tests with this and other solutions for the selective killing of weeds in various crops. Here, in brief, are his reactions and recommendations: "The chemical, 2-4-D, appears to have limited usefulness in crop production—probably confined to corn and small grain crops. But in pastures, lawns and other areas where grasses are wanted, it is the best material that has yet appeared. "Dandelion, thistle, mustard, nettle, bindweed, plantain, rag- weed poison ivy and many other broad-leaved plants can be kill- ed with a single application with- out injury to the grass. Corp plants, except members of the grass family, appear to be equal- ly sensitive to the chemical. "One part oz 2-4-D per 1,000 parts of water is usually suffi- cient to kill mcst weeds. The action is slow, with 10 days to 2 weeks required for killing; but it is thorough. All underground parts, as well as leaf and stem, are killed. "This chemical makes it possi- ble to eradicate dandelion, buck - ham and other weeds from lawns. and to remove Canada thistle and wild carrot from pastures and other large areas they now infest. Cost of present prices is about $5 an. acre. "A knapsack sprayer can be used to apply 2-4-D to small areas; but a power sprayer is de- sirable for larger areas. Nozzles that produce a flat fan spray, rather than the usual cone, are more satisfactory."
