TRIES TO FOLLOW CHILD INTO
FERRIS WHEEL CAR AND CAN
ONLY CLASP EDGE.
5000 LOOK ON IN TERROR
Climber Works Way Upward, Out to
Basket and Draws Park Patron to
Safety, While Men Hold Tar
paulln to Break Fall.

New York City.-Dangling more
than 100 feet above the ground and
suspended from the outer framework
of one of the little cars Of the Ferris
wheel in Classon park, the Bronx, Mrs.
Louis Kenzig chung to the steel bars
desperately, while 5000 persons looked
on in terror, expecting every moment
to see her release her hold and be
dashed to death.
Mrs. Kenzig went to the park for
an outing with 40 other women, all
members of the Women Settlement
Workers association. While she was
standing near the Ferris wheel with
her child the latter jumped into one
of the cars of the wheel, which was
slowly revolving.
Witnessing the act and fearful for
the child's saftey on the trip around,
Mrs, Kenzig also tried to leap into
the car, but it had proceeded so far
in the circle that she was able only to
clasp the framework, and there she
chung while the car mounted to
height of 100 feet.

The latest government report is ad-
ditionally favorable to a big wheat
crop. The returns, as interpreted by
the skilled statistician of the New
York produce exchange, indicate a to-
tai harvest of 7O2, 4O4,O0O bushels,
against an indication for the same
time last year of $50 1851, 900 bushels.
The estimate for 1909 fell below the
actual result, for the total yield last
year was 1859, 900 bushels. Should
there be similar excess this year there
will be a good chance for a record
breaking output.

Land Under Water at VandaIIa.

vandalia, Ill.-The heavy rains, aug
mented by the floor of water from
the north, has put the Okaw river
and all tributaries on a rampage. The
water has been rising rapidly during
the last "a hours, and will not likely
reach the crest before tonight. Hun
dreds of acres of farming land on the
west side of the river are under wa
ter, and should it continue to rise at
the present rate another 10 hours full
lylO,OOO acres will be submerged.
Grave fear is felt for the big nine
mile long levee which skirts the east
bank of the Okaw and which protects
more than $4,000 acres, all in cult
walton.

1t is stated that the recent missile
test against the ram Katahdin has
demonstrated that the theory as to the
piercing power of big projectiles fired
a modern battleships' range is wrong
that the missile really drops from the
trajectory at so sharp an angle that II
delivers a glancing blow and therefore
does not penetrate armor plate of only
moderate thickness. If this is true,
the fighting will have to be at closer
range, and the guns Of smaller caliber
than the big 13-inch rifles will come
into greater favor.

Springfeld.-A proposition will like
ly be brought before Missouri attor-
neys at the annual meeting of the Mis-
souri, Bar association at Excelsior
Springs, July 10 and 20, to urge the
Legislature to abolish the three courts
of appeal, located at st. Louis, Kan
sas City and Springfield, and to give
these three cities branches of the SUI

ing the chief justice of the supreme
court to look over the docket, and per

Exposition Gives Prizes for
Milk Production.
MODEL DAIRY ON GROUNDS

Milking by Electricity, Pasteurizing,
SteriIizing and Separating Pro-
cesses to Be Shown In Full De-
tail at Ohio Valley Exposition.
Six Different Bovine Breeds Will
Furnish Records of Great Value to
Farmers and Dairymen.
Cincinnati, o. Especially Active
milk-producing competition between
COWS of six of the best and most ia
vorably known breeds of cattle in the
world will be an interesting feature
of the dairy exhibit of the Ohio Val
ley Exposition, to be held at Cincin-
natl from August 20 to September "a.
Some time ago plans were perfected
for the installation of a model dairy
in which the milking of COWS and
the various processes of handling
milk were to be shown under the
latest and most sanitary methods.
This plan included milking by cleo
separating under most approved con-
ditions, and the making of butter,
cheese, ice cream, ETC., all in full
view of visitors to this department.
To this arrangement now has been
added a system for making records
of the productive qualities of various
breeds of cows. 1t is proposed to
place in this model dairy two each of
six well-known breeds of cows, Jer-
seys, Guesnseys, Ayrshires, Durhams,
HOlsteins and Attorneys being in
cluded in the list. Only registered
cows will go into the exhibit, thus
assuring the best possible results for
each breed. Careful records will be
taken daily Of the quantity of milk
secured from each COW, together
with the amount of cream produced,
as well as statistics showing the
amount and quality of the various by
products. These records will be
posted daily on the stall of each COW,
with weekly records for individual

contiguous to the Southern Califor-
MIA metropolis. Many of these fruits
will be similar to those shown by the
Florida growers, none of whom, how
ever, fear the comparison, as Florida
fruits long have had a high standing
in the Ohio Valley market and are
in no fear of being crowded out One
of the most interesting displays TO
be made by both sections will be that
of grape fruit. Twenty years ago
these mammoth globes of luscious
citrous pulp were unknown to cpl
cures. Today no breakfast table is
complete without them, and the de-
mand annually is much greater than
the supply. 1t is estimated that
100000 boxes of grape fruit. aver
aging about so pieces to the box and
selling at an average of $2.03 per
box, are consumed annually in the
United States. Of this amount a
large percentage comes from Florida,
with California also producing an ap-
preciable quantity, while Central
America and the islands in the Gulf
of Mexico and the Caribbean sea sup
ply the rest of the demand. 1t is ex-
pected that the general fruit display
at the Exposition will be the most
complete exhibit of this kind ever
gathered together, with the South
showing greater variety than any
other section of the country.

cows and for the breeds. In this
way the interested public may see
exactly what each COW is doing,
while experts will find in these fig
ures much valuable information. At
the close of the Exposition a COM
plete record of the products secured
from each breed of COWS will be
made public, thus affording a table
of comparisons that should prove val
liable to those directly interested.
Naturally, none of the breeds will
have any advantage, as every COW
will be handled under exactly similar
conditions. The model dairy" which
will be built on plans furnished by,
and under the, supervision of, the
State Dairy and Food Commissioner,
will be located on a steel island in
the center of the canal. 1t will be
built almost entirely of glass. and
will be comparatively dustless.

FRUIT WILL COME
FROM FAR WEST

Cincinnati, o. Especially South
ern fruit growers are welcoming the
opportunity of displaying their prod
ucts for comparison with the fruits
of the California horticulturists at
the Ohio Valley Exposition, to be
held in Cincinnati from August 20 to
September "a. For some time the
fruit growers of the South have been
placing the choicest specimens of
their groves and orchards in cold
storage, with the result. that as fine
a collection of Florida fruits as ever
was assembled will be ready for dis
play when the Exposition opens. Now
comes word from California that the
Chamber of Commerce of Los An
geles will apply for 1900 square feet
of floor space on which to make an
exhibit. which shall consist princi-
pally of fruits, attractively arranged,
and which are grown in the territory
