Neptune, residing northwest of town, has a remedy that he got in West Virginia that he declares will keep crows, mice, ‘squirrels, eut worms or anything else from getting the corn after it is plant- ed. It is turpentine. He simply | pours the turpentine into the planter box and last year he used almost a gallon in planting nine- ty acres. .Mr. Neptune says the odor of the turpentine will keep rodents or fowls from bothering the seed and will not injure the corn in the least. In fact, he says the turpentine acts as a fertilizer. Metz Times. » A German Spy Escaped. New York, Jan. 18.—Ignatius T.
