FLORENCE VICTORIOUS.

Hands of Locals.

In the base ball game between
the local and Bergerman (colored)
teams, on the home ground the
Florence team came out victorious,
thus adding another laurel to its
record. The score stood, Florence
II, Pueblo L.
1t WAS an easy game for the
Florence team, and the visitors
decided that they couldn't play
ball here, still they had enough
confidence in themselves that a
challenge of $3.50 was offered by
them to play Florence on the first
open date. Norhing was done
with this as Florence would rather
play some team that is hard to
beat.
The battery yesterday for the
locals WAS Patterson and Shields:
Pueblo, Dorner and Dean The
Florence team wouldn't have done
a thing to them had ey had their
regular pitcher
The attendance was about 40
and the gate receipts were 500
The game was played for 80 and
40 per cent. of the receipts. and
the locals hauled in the biggest
pile of shekels. The Shady Grove
colored band of Pueblo discoursed
music from the band stand.
Florence yesterday received
challenge from Rockvale ball team
from Pete Douglas and Joe Daley
for a game here on the first open
date for 500 side. Florence
would not place game on that
basis, but offered them the first
open date for percentage of the
gate receipts BY doing this
the locals thought it would not
rivalry between the two
teams, but Rockvale can do all
the betting on the side that it
cares to.

New PapaI Decoration.

In future all Roman Catholics who
go to the Holy Land will have the right
to wear a special decoration which has
just been created by the pope. 1t con-
tains a cross which resembles the cross
of the holy sepulcher, to which is at
tached small medal bearing the effigy
of Leo XIII. and the words Leo XIII.
creavit ammo MCM." On the cross it.
self there are also several other in
scriptions. The pontifical decree says
that this decoration is to be worn on
the left side of the breast, and is to be
held in position by means of a red and
white silk ribbon. 1t also says that
the decoration will be conferred on pill
grims by Father Giannini, guardian of
the holy sepulcher, who has been au-
thorized to do SO by the sacred congre-
cation of the propaganda. A diploma
will be given with each decoration,
and no applicant who is Roman
Catholic and who is really going to
the Holy Land will be rejected. Pope
Leo has ordered that no one is to
wear this decoration in public except
in his presence or on the occasion of
solemn church festivals or while MAX
ing pilgrimage.-Chicago Tribune.

FARM WATER SUPPLY.
Unique System Adopted by a Man Who
Could Not Afford n Wind
mill and Tank.

Father did not like to pump water
for stock and could not afford wind
mill and tank. He dug a well 200
yards from the house, and the bot
tom of the well was considerably
higher than the house, and the house
was IS or 20 feet higher than the
ground at the barn. A pipe was let
into the well which nearly reached
the bottom, the open end being pro-
tected by a wire screen, covered, so
no mice or foreign substances could
obstruct the flow of water. A trench
was dug a few feet deep and the
pipe laid from the well to a pump
some 20 feet away. This pipe was
connected with the perpendicular
pipe in the well by a round elbow
The pump was some three feet be-

PLAN OF FARM WATER SUPPLY.
low the top of the well, which was
IS feet deep. A short pipe, a foot
long, was laid from the main pipe,
and a round elbow connected it with
small iron pump. Near the pump
was a screw in the short pipe to shut
off or turn on the water from the
well. On the main pipe, just beyond
the place where the short pipe was
Joined, and below, was another
screw.
Halfway down to the barn was
a perpendicular pipe about three feet
high and furnished with faucet. Be
low this the pipe was fitted into a
short plank board the size of the
pipe, with one one-half-inch hole
bored down into the passage and
some three inches below a small hole,
each fitted with a plug. These, with
the faucet, were for the escape of
dir. When ready to start the water,
the faucets at the house and water
trough were closed. A large, strong
q
Then the two plugs were removed
from the block of wood near the fau-
Get, midway to the well, the faucet
opened and they were ready. The
screws at the pump must be in per-
feet order and not a bubble of air
be allowed to enter the pipe any
where but where indicated. The
screw next the pump must be opened
to let water flow from the well
through the pump, and the screw in
the main pipe just below the short
pipe to the pump must be tightly
closed.
To start, pour water in the pump,
a half-bucketful, say, and hold the
hand over the nose of the pipe and
pump. In short time the water
will flow readily from the well, but
let it come freely so the pipe is full,
then lower the handle to the pump
close the screw at the foot in the
short pipe, open quickly the screw in
the main pipe and if your pipe is not
laid too deep you will hear the water
gurgling away down the hill to the
barn. Now go to the block and
faucet. The water is forcing out the
air, and in short time you will
see it running through the block on
its way down to the barn. Wait un-
til the pipe is full which you may
know by the water overlooking from
the air holes in the block. Then put
in the large plug, then the small one
then close the faucet, and your sy.
phon will draw water as long as
there is any in the well, or a break
in the pipe let's in air. When you dc
not want it to run, close the faucets
at barrel and trough.
We have had water run for months
without starting anew, but when wa.
ter is low, as it often is in our long
rainless summer, we have to start il
as often as it stops running. The
pipe must, of course, be protected
from frost, but that is no difficult
matter here, where ice is seldom
seen. We have had this well in op.
Grafton since 'S4. The side well is
connected by screw and joint below
the faucet. By starting the water
when the pipes are full and the screw
open to the side well, the water from
the main we'll will back up there and
fill it. Of course such things must
be watched.-Mrs. L. r. Littleiohn, il

Marketing the MIL Supply.

Over the seven electric roads CEN
tering at Cleveland, o., is a stroke of
enterprise. The specially construct
ed milk cars pass barns, pick up the
milk and deliver to the dealer at any
point in the city. These same lines
run parcel freight cars, and the
amount of farm produce they carry
daily is astonishing. With good
roads, free rural mail delivery and
1900 telephones in the farm homes
of this dairy district, the economic
changes and methods of living that
have occurred are indeed wonderful
and the end is not yet.-Farm and

washed it off and it proved to be silver

back to work. Presently he went to the
