Another Scalp for Paw Paw

The Paw Paw high school football
team added another scalp TO its belt last
Saturday. They went to Plainwell and
met the strong high school team there.
The teams seemed to be very evenly
matched and surged back and forth
across the field without either side being
able TO push the pig skin across the goal
line. During the last two minutes OF
play, however, full back Decker carried
tho ball around the end and got away
from the entire Plainwel bunch. Sew.

ored to overtake him but gave it up as
a hopeless task and Deck sprinted DC
yards for the only touch down of the
game. He also kicked goal. Final score,

IT PAYS TO SPRAY POTATOES
Experiments This Year Show That
Farmers Cannot Afford TO
Neglect Spraying.

The harvesting of this years potato
crop has demonstrated the fact that
farmers must spray their potato vines
for blight and also treat them for scao.
In some localities, where the proper care
has been taken of the growing vines,
extraordinarily large yields have been
harvested and the potatoes are OF eX-
cellent QUALITY. Robert McWIlliams
harvested 200 bushels, Harry Lurklns
253 bushels and Jason Woodman 263
bushels to the acre. These figures refer
only to the marketable potatoes, the
small ones being left on the ground.
Mr.. McWillams did not spray for blight,
but both the others mentioned did. 1t
Is safe to say that, had he spray ed, his
yield would have exceeded chat OF Wood
man or Lurklns, as his soil Is superior
to theirs. 70 test the efficiency OF the
treatment Mr. Woodmau left several
rows in one corner of the fed without
spraying Those 10y actual measurement
aud weight went 1873 bushels 10 the acre,
while the same number OF rows adjacent
TO them, which were sprayed, yielded
262 bushels to the acre, and the quality
was far better, as scarcely rotten pota.
to was found where the vines were
spray ed, and the potatoes were OF uni
form size, clean and perfect. These
crops which nave been mentioned were
raised on heavy sod, MANFRED before
blowing, and were well cultivated
through the summer Mr.. Woodman
had nearly 1000 bushels and is storing
them in the Armour building at Paw
Paw until such time as he cares to mar
ket them.

The following is a verbatim extract
from resolution presented to and
adopted by the hoard of supervisors at
their last session: Resolved, that the
drain commissioner for the county of
Van Buien shall make full and de-
tailed statement to the board OF super
visors, under oath, OF the time actually
spent by HIM since January /, 1907, to
the lst day of October, 1907, and that
he be required to make such report at
the October session of the board 10 each
and every year" 1t has been suggested
that the commissioner could save him
self lot of time and labor by getting
"such report" stereotyped.

Outside Of the City Of South Haven
as appears from the reports OF the sew

dogs and all village dogs, valuable dogs
few in number worthless dogs-very
plentiful-white dogs, black dogs, spotted

pups and ours, except an occasional one,
perhaps, that travels on two legs City
dogs are not taxed, being exempt by
statute, but their owners have to pay a

MEXICAN ORANGES.

Carloads OF Mexican oranges have been

few weeks where there has been a steady de-
mand for them. as they arrive much earlier than
the oranges from California.
Mexican oranges have the advantage over the
California and the Florida fruit In that thew
get into the United States about the first OF
october. While the California oranges rarely are
ready for the market until after the first of the
year. and even then they are very scarce and
hardly ready for shipment. Nevertheless, the
orange growers or those two states as a rule,
force the market as soon as the oranges re-
turning ripe. The Mexican oranges are really
preferable until the spring, when the merchants
