Sensations for Blue Ribbon Week.

Sensations for Blue Ribbon Week.
Among the many attractions for the big
trotting carnival at Detroit that occupies the
week from July Is to 90, is projected bat
tie between the famous PAGERS, John X. Gen.
try and Joe Patchen. These giants of the
sulky are now in training, Gentry getting
his fast work at Charter Oak Park, Hart
ford, Conn, while the redOubtable "Old
Black Joe" is being put into shape at Joliet,
ILL.,, by the experienced western reinsman,
Peter V. Johnston, who taught the earlier
champion Johnston to go to the clip that en-
abled him to lower the worlds record.
This race will probably be the feature of
the opening of the Blue Ribbon meeting.
1t will possess unusual interest being the
first time these fleet rivals have come to-
gether since 1896, when John r. Gentry
carried off the honors. Both PAGERS have
improved in speed and race quality since
that time for Joe Patchen reduced his mark
to BOIL last season giving Star Pointer a
drubbing at Columbus, Ohio, in August and
afterwards paced the two minute horse to
lower the race record to 2:0OX. While he
was contesting the supremacy with the
champion, Gentry was on starring tour all
over the country, and among other achieve
ments reduced the record In double harness
to 2:0s with his mate Robert j..
Over Detroit's fast track these two whirl
wind PAGERS will make contest worth
going many miles to see. Special rates
have been made on all the railroads for one
fare for the round trip, good to return until
July 90, the third day of the meeting
This will enable persons from distande to
see the race for the classical Merchants and
Manufacturers stake of $4,000, on Tues
day between the trotters, and the equally |

Typhoid Fever From Ordinary Streams
Warning to Young Men, and All Who
Battle in Streams.

Recent reports to the State Board OF
Health show that at least two cases OF
typhoid fever have been caused by drink
ing the water in or from the Kalamazoo
river. In no case should water be used
for drinking or culinary purposes from a
river or stream into which sewage is emp
tied or privies are liable to drain: and
as most of the rivers and streams of this
state have towns situated upon or near
their banks, from which sewage is receiv-
ed and privies are liable to drain; there.
fore it is very dangerous to use the water
from any of the rivers or streams for any
culinary purpose whatever, except the
water be first boiled, and it should not,
in any case whatever be drank, unless
previously boiled.
Gases have been reported where ty-
phoid fever has been contracted by bath.
ing in streams. Probably this will be
most likely to occur through accidently
or carelessly taking the infected water
into the mouth. Especially should no
person battle in any ordinary. stream just
below any city, village or other source of
sewage or privy drainage.

Cut out the RIVE.

During the past two or three years there
has been considerable trouble in this state
caused by rye getting mixed in the wheat.
A large quantity of wheat that would other
wise be of fine quality is utterly ruined for
milling purposes by the rye that is mixed
through the grain, and many dollar is lost
to farmers that might easily and readily
be saved by the exercise of little care dur
ing the next thirty days to cut the clusters
of rye out of the wheat fields.
Michigan milers require the bsst grade of
perfectly clean wheat in order to produce
-four of as fine quality as they have been
making the past ten years or more. Michi-
gan first grade fours are justly celebrared
in the most discriminating markets both at
home and in foreign countries. This repu-
tation cannot be maintained except by use
of first class grain. Wheat mixed with rye
brings only low price in any market. 1t
is well known fact that the growing of rye
deteriorates the quality of wheat, creating
mongrel or hybrid variety. Ii we desire to
improve the grades and varieties of our
wheat we must keep it absolutely pure and
free from rye. Farmers cannot spend lit
tie time to better advantage than to 90
through the wheat fields In the early part of
June and cut the rye out clean.
