KILLED A SELF BINDER

John eastman Of Manitowoc Rapids
was killed on Monday morning last, ON
his farm, by being run over by self
binder. He and his brother Michael had
gone out to cut piece of grain. After
hitching on to the binder the lines We're
tied to lever on the machine
John was about to oil the main wheel
of the binder In order to reach the oil
we'll the team had to be moved ahead a
few feet. Michael stepped to the horses
heads to do so. The machine was IN
gear and when it moved ahead the noise
frightened the horses and Michael was
unable to hold them He called to his
brother TO jump ON the seat and take the
lines but instead Of doing 50 he also
proceeded to the horst heads. The tef III
was under full Roadway by that time
and both men We're thrown to the ground.
Michael escaped unhurt, but the heavy
wheel OF the binder passed over John
breast, breaking five ribs and crushing
the chest. and also cutting a severe cash
in his head When he was lifted up he
asked to be laid down, saying, My back
is broken am dying" In ten minutes
he breathed his last

AMONG FARMERS.

Barley in the southern part OF this
county is already in the barn.
Pease will not be a first class crop this
year. The stalks are affected by kind
of rust
The season is turning out quite favor
ably for those farmers who had the pa
tience to wait.
Should the weather be favorable there
can be no doubt that the Manitowoc
County Fair this year will eclipse that
Of any preceding
The weather report for the week says
| rain is needed in a few localities IN the
state. Barley is reported good crop
but discolored A good crop of potatoes
is promised.
Thomas Dorsey of Morrison was the
first farmer to bring to market load OF
this years grain. He brought in a load
of barley on Friday last which he sold to
Hall Bros.
E. S. Bedell of Manitowoc Rapids says
that farmers have abundant reason to
feel gratified this year at the prospects
of fine harvest Everything which
has maturod so far is excellent. Mr.
Bedell is largely engaged in the fruit
business and says it has been a very fav-
orable year and he is we'll satisfied with
the business he has done.
NJ. H. Egan of Centerville furnished
the two steers which We're used in the
butchering contest at Sheboygan ON Sun
day last The steers were purchased
some time ago for this purpose but were
left in Mr.. Egans care until the time set
for the butcher picnic. The two weigh
ed in the neighborhood of $500 pounds
and are described as the finest animals
ever seen in this section.
One of the most valuable bulletins ever
issued by the Agricultural Experient
Station is Bulletin No. rs which deals
with the noxious weeds of Wisconsin.
1t gives full description of all these
weeds, drawings of them and the best
means known for their extirpation. It
is impossible to give i'll synopsis OF this
bulletin anything Of much value to farm
ers, as it contains - pages and instruc-
tons as to the weeds is necessarily gwen
in detail. This bulletin should be in the
hands of every farmer and The Pllt
urges its farmer readers to send for it at
once as they will find it valuable.
Considerable attention is given TO the
Canada thistle as this Is deemed about
the worst weed the farmer has to con-
tend with. 1t is quite common to hear
one farmer talk of means he has EN-
ployed to rid his land of thistles which
when used by an ,ther would prove fiat
failure. The facl is that different sells
REQUIRE different kinds of treatment.
The soil most difficult to treat is what is
known as bottom land, valleys where
the soil is deep Such land requires con,
slant care. Clay loan, or swamp lands
with clay resting on hardpan, offer but
little difficulty as compared with rich
bottom land.
The time to cut thistles is when they
have thrown ont their flowers and before
seed is formed To cut them before this
is waste of time.
But detailed description OF treatment
cannot be given in an ordinary news
paper article As stated before, farmers
should be in possession of the bulletin.
1t is furnished free ON application to

son, Wis Indeed farmers should get

RAND L. ROEMER COMPANY'S
IMPROVEMENTS.

The Pilot was in error last week III
stating that the brick addition being put
up by the Rand d RoeIef company is
to be only two stories 1t will be three
stories This additional story has sig
nifcance beyond what this additional
space means. 1t is the purpose to add
one story to the entire building next
year, making three-story structure
throughout. The present structure will
be renodeled considerably so as to make
it more modern in appearance and many
internal changes will be made.
In addition to the new addition, the
iron clad building between it and the
old brick structure will have its roof
raised to level with the new building
thus making an additional story An
elevator will be put in near the new
building so that the third story may be
reached by it. A wagon scale will be
put inside the building and loading and
unloading will be done hereafter within
made necessary while unloading is done
on the sidewalk The sum expended on
improvements this year will foot up to
81 600 Considerably more will be spent
next year when the Improvements made
will be more extensive.
The wholesale business of the company
has been increasing and the object is to
meet its requirements and promote its
further increase by enlarged facilities,
The company lately issued large cat
