congregation of River Falls drove
in last Sunday with their lunch bas-
kets and planned to surprise the
pastor by attending service in Eben-
ezer church in the morning and
hold Sunday school picnic in
Prospect Park in the afternoon.
The irclemency of the weather pre-
vented the picnic, but all remained
IL the church and put in a very
pleasant afternoon socially. Be-
fore departing the guests left a
snug little sum with the pastor as
token of esteem.
Rev. Bloomholm is hard worker
along church lines, and has done
much for the advancement of the
church. Besides his congregation
here he has large congregations at
River Falls and North and South
Saltwater which take up consider
able of his time. He has given
good satisfaction and is held in
high esteem by his Pensioners

TRADE REPORT.

New York-Bradstreet's report on
trade the past week follows:
Cooler weather has stimulated retail
trade quite generally throughout the
country and this is reflected in an i'm
proved recorder demand for seasonabls
goods. The movement of crops has
been freer in the Northwest, West
and South, and interior collections
have improved. Eastern jObbers Ia
turn note a more cheerful tone to
trade, which has hitherto Jagged be-
hind the corresponding season a year
ago. Buying, however, is classed as
conservative and more smaller lots
are taken than formerly.
The labor situation is rather unset
tied.
There is rather a better tone to
the lumber market and more stead
mess than earlier in the month.
The shutdown of the Amalgamated
copper mines has had a strengthen
ing effect on copper. The window
glass industry is depressed and pro-
duction must be curtailed.

TWO CARS DYNAMITE EXPLODE
CrestIine, Ohio, In Midst Of Panic
Stricken People.

Crestline, Ohio, Nov. 3.-Crestline
and vicinity was turned into panic
sunday night by a terrible explosion
at o'clock. Many buildings were
shaken and in some instances the
walls fell. Church congregations were
thrown into screaming masses Of hui
manity. People who were at home
were terrified by the fearful roar that
was heard. Two cars of dynamite,
which exploded in the Pennsylvania
yards, was the cause of the excite
ment. Hundreds of Pennsylvania rail-
road employees are at work searching
for the dead or injured.
The entire west yard of the road is
complete wreck. Officials of the
railroad have said the loss is about As
cars. Where the explosion occurred,
a hole about 20 feet wide and twice

was applied made continuous growth,

from a distance by darker color than
that shown on the plats on which no
fertilizer was used. The treated plats
did not ripen as early as the others,

Home Made Fruit Ladder.
The average fruit ladder, as found in
most orchards, Is not particularly de-
sirable mainly because it is not de-
signed for this particular work. The
broad top of the common ladder makes
1t almost impossible to get it among
the branches In firm position. Where
one has considerable fruit to gather, a
special ladder constructed after the
plan of the one In the illustration will
I be found not only useful, but will save
considerable time in the fruit gather

with sharpened pieces of iron, w
any blacksmith can fashion an
tach. Bore holes one and one-halt
inches in diameter in both sides as far
apart as the rungs are to be placed
The rungs should be formed Of some
tough wood so that they may not be
made too bungling. At the top of the
pole a strip of strap iron is fastened
with long hook so that it may be
passed over the branches of the tree.
The illustration on the left of the cut
shows how the hook is fastened on.
