Trout Season Closes Aug. 18th.

The trout season will close this
year just the same as it did last, on
August Is. Furthermore, it will stay
closed until the first day of next May
and anyone fishing in the mean time
will get into trouble.
Because 1t has been published re-
peatedly that the season would close
on August Is and then through a vag-
ary OF the law. open on Sept. for an
other Is days, State Deputy Game
Warden Stanford Of Boyne City got
into communication with the game
warden's department. He received
the assurance from Mr.. Pierce that
there was mistake IL the sportsmen
thought they could fish Is days after
Sept. L, as they could not. that the
season closed on August 10 and stay
ed closed.
Those who have been planning
otherwise, should make a change in

Ball Games Next Week.

The Base Ball Bug struck East Jor-
dan last week when bunch OF our
ex-plavers got together and went over
to Elk Rapids for a game. The score
was 10 to Z in favor of Elk Rapids,
but considering the fact that our
boys have had no practice and the
Elk Rapids team is seasoned-being
the Old Mission team that tied with
Boynes professional bunch a few
weeks ago, the result was satisfac-
tory.
Arrangements have been made with
the Mortouk Indian Club for couple
of games here next Wednesday and
Thursday. A. b. Nicholas, Jr. Is
manager of the locals and the lineup
OF the team Is about as follows. Pot

Bountiful
Praise God From Whom All
Blessings Flow.

The song OF the reaper is heard to-
day in Texas and Oklahoma. 1t will
move north gradually until the whole
nation will resound with the clatter
of knives bowling the bursting heads
Of grain.
Again the nation is bountfully
blessed by the God that rules the ele-
ments; crop reports are favorable. and
unless some unforeseen disaster
comes there will be bread for all.
The farmer who has plowed deep,
seeded well nourished his land, rests
in the evening stroked by the con-
tentine hand of achievement. 1t Is
for such moments as these that men
live and strive. For hard toll, long
hours Of toll, the "slave Of the wheel
Of labor" is compensated by the real-
ization OF splendid accomplishment.
Each year the American farmer
adds ciphers to the bewildering to-
tails Of bushels Of grain. This year.
IL all continues we'll, the splendid
land that Providen ce gave into our
keeping will produce more than two
and a half billion bushels of corn,
some 7O0,OOO,OOO bushels Of wheat,
500, 900 900 bushels or oats, l70, 600 900
bushels If barley. These with all
other farm products will have value
of nearly or quite $4,000. 900, 600.
We hear much these days aboat the
increased cost Of living, and every
housewife and salaried father knows
what that means. While we listen
to the song of the reaper this year let
us remember that 1t Is the trust,
standing between the farmer and the
consumer, which makes life a burden
for the wage Garner OF the cities.
God blesses our lands-a few greedy
men intervene and prevent the ac-
ceptance Of the full blessing.
That must not be forgotten, but let
us be thankful, that nature IL for the
poor again this year-there will be no
famine, though prices may remain
high.
Bobby Burns words seem pat:
Some hae meat, and Gamma eat,
And some wad eat that want IL;
But we hae meat, and we can eat.
And sac the Lord he thankit.

New Religious Sect at BOyne.


The "Unknown Tongue" is a new
branch OF religion as expounded by
several worshippers at the h0m of
Mrs. John Try, of Bailey street. On-
ly a few of them are located in Boyns
City. The idea was brought here
last fall by one Of the sisters named
Holmes, from Chicago, where num-
ber of followers who claim to be close
students of the Bible and simply fol-
low up its teachings, are located. aud
they claim that they are among the
chosen few Of whom the Bible speaks
where II says "FOr many are called
and but few are chosen"
The followers here believe that they
are the chosen few and also claim
that they are frequently Ill ed with
the Holy Spirit and during these &C.
casions are able to speak in foreign
tongues which are unknown to them,
but would be understood by persons
who would be present during the
trance-like state which they enter al
most daily. According To theory, a
considerable portion Of those people
living in the neighborhood are not
among those chosen few ones. The
neighbOrs claim that this particular
kind Of religion is so noisy that it
disturbs them and on one occasion
the Chief of Police was called In TO
see about It. The ceremonies con-
sist of shouting In unknown tongues
and In the pounding Of heads on the
floor and other things Of similar
noisy nature. The law provides that
people may worship in their own way
In this country and so long as they do
not disturb Others too much they will
likely be allowed to bump their heads
as much as they please.

Objects of The Bureau.

The Western Michigan Develop
ment Bureau WAS organized Friday,
March 26, 1909. The meeting for pre-
liminary organization included repre-
sentatives from four counties aud an
invitation was Immediately extended
to seven other counties to join ia the
movement. Accordingly the follow
ing counties are now considered as the
field of operations for the Bureau:
Musksgon. Newago, Oceana, Mason,
Lake, Manistee, Benzie, Wexford,
Grand Traverse, Leelanau, Antrim,
CElevoix.
The explanation Of the origin OF the
Western Michigan Development Ru-
reau is TO be found ia the similarity
Of conditions preyailailing through
out the region specified. La climate,
soil, crops. industries, and in point Of
unique opportunity for growth an OBJ
vioHs community OF interest impelled
united effort for development.
1t IL a we'll known fact that the
early tide or immigration was turned
from Michigan as state by stories
that the country was largely swamp
and that 1t was diverted into other
states beyond and further west.
Similarly other stories equally false
regarding the soil of northern Michi-
gan, its barrenness and unproductive-
ness, and the climate, its extremes Of
cold, have retarded the growth Of that
part of the state sought 10 be devsl-
otDl by the Bureau, 1t largely for
the correction of these misapprehen-
slons that the Bureau came into exis-
teuce.
The work OF the Bureau will con-
sist largely la Informing the public of
the great opportunities to be found 10
Western Michigan; the great profit in
fruit growing; the advantages OF di-
yersitied farming here over the single
crop system of lands farther west; the
nearness to market; the indus trial op-
portunities; the equableness OF eli
mate; the attractiveness of the sum-
mer resorts. In short, the Bureau
will state the case and plead the
cause OF Western Michigan. But II
will not confne it's efforts to talk
Home seekers excursions will be run
people will be brought and SHOWN
that Western Michigan has faireI
prospects and larger opportunities
thar the much tOuted regions Of the
faH%est and southwest which it to-
tally eclipses

CHINA GETS CONCESSIONS
Has Not Surrended to Japan Her Right
to Veto Railroad Building.

Pekn. Aug. 29.-Further details regard
ing the statement of the controversies
between Japan and China on Manchurian
affairs came to light Saturday. 1t is UNI
derstood that Japan made additional con-
cessions affecting the Chentao district.
between Corea and Manchuria. Among
these are recognition of China's jurisdic-
ton of the Fushun and Yentai mining
areas. A general memorandum already
has been drafted. 1t probably will receive
it's final revision next Tuesday, when the
date of signing will be fixed.
1t is understood China has limited her
promise regarding railroad extension IN
Manchuria to the non-constructlon OF the
IIsinmintun- Fakumen line without con-
sulting Japan. The apprehensions Of the
Powers regarding the statement that
China had surrendered to Japan her right
of veto to railroad construction in Man
churia are thus removed.
The indications are that Japan, al
though surrendering the administration of
Chientao to China. will control both the
population and the trade of this district.
Japan also yields in her contention that
the boundary line should be north of the
Tumen. 1t has been south of this river.
The settlement. as it stands now. gives
Japan six open markets in Chientao and
jurisdiction over the Coreans in these
markets: railroad rights into the city of
Mukden: the right to extend the Tashi-
Chiao railroad to Yinkow; joint posses
sion of all mines in the railroad zone:
additional mines in the Fushun and Yam
tai districts, and other advantages.

Barop,eter Birds.

You do not tap the barometer bird! you
just keep your eye on its tail. The ba-
rometer bird was discovered in this way.
On recent visit to Pemba Bay, Por-
tugese East Africa. the Captain OF q
Swedish vessel was attracted by the pref
ty antics of some small gaudily -cOlored
birds. They were sweet-voiced, had flice.
long, curving tail feathers, and the Cap
tain made collection of them. yf4qs
few weeks experience afloat how
ever, showed that the little songsters had
much more than their appearance or
voices to recommend them. They kept
changing color, and as the ship progressed
north their beautiful tail feathers came
out When the ship crossed the equator
the birds became sober blao' and mot
tied color. But they grew yellow In the
sunshine and turned dark at the Ap-
prOach of foul weather rbh il
1t was observed, also, that the birds
exercised some strange influence over. the
ships cat which ran in deadly fear from
them.-Answers.
