Light Apple Crop

Iowa will have light apple crop
this year says DR.. Chapel in the
weekly crop bulletin. This is
practically the only cropglleft to
harvest with the exception of
grapes which will make a good
yield. The rains did some damage
to grain i'll shock but on the whole
were beneficial. GeorgeG A. Wells
Says Iowa's corn crop this year
will be two hundred and forty. one
million bushels while DR.. Chapel
says Wells estimats is too low and
will be much larger than that.
John Cownie says corn is five per
cent better than at this time last
year, and with normal temperature
ehould make better crop.

Christian Church Notes

Our Training for Service class is
growing ia numbers and interest.
The Ladies Aid will serve sup
per in the lecture room of the
church next Friday evening.
Next Sunday evening, the last OF
this seasons union services, will
be held in the NJ. E. church al
which the writer will preach.
We greatly mise the picturesque
and rugged personality of Honest
Pete as we'll as that of his cultured
and refined helpmate. Our prayers
and best wishes certainly go with
them to their new home.
Last Lords Day evening Brother
Bates preached helpful sermon
from the text "There re1naineth a
rest for the people of God" The
thought most prominently broug ht
ont was that this rest is found in
this life.
Our Bible School picnic last Fri.
day was an enjoyable affair. A
bountiful dinner wac served on the
green after which various games
and pastimee were INDUCED in by
both old and young. The social
features of our church life ore not
emphasized enough in this com.
munity.

MISS PECK
Fear for Safety Of Miss Peck. Nc
Word Received from Mountain
Climber Since Friday

Some alarm is felt for the safety
OF Miss Annie Peck OF Providence,
Rhode Island, the noted mountain
climber, who on Friday afternoon
sianalled her arrival at an altitude
of 25,000 feet ora Mount Huascaran,
the summit OF which is covered
with perpetual snow. Since that
time no word has been received
from her or the two Alpine climb
ers who accompanied her. Miss
Peck's feat in reaching an altitude
attained by no man or woman in
the world, was learned here with
astonish,nent and admiration.
Various expeditions are hunting
for her.

Fair Warning Given

To Whom it May Concern:
| wish to state to the public and es-
peciaily those interested in the neigh
borhood of the Union Baptist church
in Greeley township in Audubon Co.,
Iowa, that | did not place my hay
stacks near the parsonage for spite
work but that they were put there in
the first place without any effect on
the affairs of the church. | would
have been glad to remove the hay but
for the manner in which / was ap-
preached by some members of the
church whom / now desire to warn
that if the statements which they have
made concerning me are repeated or if
others as bad and untruthtul are
made, they will be prosecuted to the
full extent of the law and my ability.

Railway Talk

The Treynor Record says "Ever
since the famous freshet which served
to establish Old Man Noahs reputa-
ton as weather prophet began to
subside, there has been talk Of rail-
road thru Treynor. So far this talk
has consisted almost entirely of that
abundant commodity known as hot
air, but at last Moses has arisen in
the person of George w. Adams, who
seems designed to lead US out of the
wilderness and place our town on an
equal footing, commercially, with
other towns in this part of the state.
For the last two or three years Mr..
Adams has had it in mind to build q
railroad from Omaha and Council
Bluffs on the west to Des Moines on
the east and, like the wise man, he
intends to have that road pass thru
Treynor, for it is written. that Trey.
nor shall be the greatest ton the line.
Last Saturday evening the first
steps were taken toward the construc-
ton Of the line when a bunch of men
who live along the route Of the pro-
posed road got together in sTreynor
and elected officers, made necessary
arrangements for incorporation ard
did other things that were required.
The company will be incorporated
at 81 200, 900 which amount can be in
creased from time to time as may be
desired. We are in position to say
that the company will have no trou-
BILE in disposing of Its securities.
Nothing is absolutely sure in this
world but death and taxes, but in its
present stage of development, the
Iowa aud Omaha Shorl Line looks as
sure as any business project can look
before it is actually accomplished
Everything has been done that can be
done to insure success and 30 far as
can be judged, nothing can arise in
the future to interfere seriously

BALDWIN AIRSHIP
Accepted by Our Government. Filled
All Four of the Tests

The government now owns the
Baldwin dirigible balloon after
three army officers had made eight
trips. General Allen informed
Captain Baldwin that, having full
filled his contract, he could turn
over the balloon at any time. Bald.
win had still to train two signal
corps officers to handle the craft.
In an hours time he trained three
officers to General ALEXIS satisfac-
ton. So now it can be truthfully
said that the government has gone
into the balloon business.

Maths and Fires

Moths and flames are universally
connected, yet few people suspect that
danger could arise theYefrom The in
sects are of such frail structure that
generally they get destroyed before 1t
is possible for them TO inf1ict injury,
and 1t is hardly credible that the wings
would ignite and retain the fame long
enough to enable the moth to fly to ITS
surroundings. That, however. has oc-
Cured The moth was very large
one, and its wings must have been
very dry, so that when 1t foundered
through the fame it set fire TO ope
wing and darted on to a curtain near
by. which at once Jared up. 1t is pos
sible that many summer evening fires
in the country could be attributed to
source of this kind. 1t is notorious
that mysterious fires often arise at
sunset In the hot months.-Strand

GOOD ROAD CONGRESS.
Purpose and Features Of the lnterna-
tionaI Gathering at Paris.


Colonel Charles $. Bromwell, Cliff
ford Richardson and William Page
have been appointed by President
Roosevelt to represent the United
States at the international road CON
gress to be held In Paris during Octo-
Der, 1908.
Napoleon was a great advocate Of
road building, and since his time
France has spent between $5O0,000,-
900 and S600000,000 on her highways.
The advent Of the automobile has
proved a serious menace TO the sur
face of the roads, and the purpose OF
this congress is to hear opinions OF
dense them into a practical idea of the
treatment and care of the surface of
a road.
This congress, to which the govern
ments Of the various nations have
been officially invited to appoint rep
resentatives, will be opened Oct ii
and will be In session seven days.
II is proposed during the life of the
congress to give several festivals In
Paris and also excursions, one par
ticularly TO Nice to enable the MEM
bers to visit especially fitted up roads
or roads In course Of preparation.
The United States government has
made several tests at Washington late
ly, principally by taking photographs
of the clouds Of dust raised by each
automobile going at different rates
of speed at from five to sixty miles
an hour These dust clouds were
weighed In order to determine how
much of the surface OF the road was
taken Off by motor going at an ex-
cesslve rate Of speed This point and
q number of others which bfve been
ascertained 10y the government of the
United States undoubtedly will be
brought to the attention of the con-
gress by one of the American repre-
sentatives, and IL is more than likely
