exceedingly sparse, and the means
Of communication are limited to
foot power and conversation. -

Horse Runs Away.

Mrs. Anton Johnson, who lives
two miles east Of the city, yester-
day experienced a runaway which
fortunately did not have any seri-
Gus consequences. She was driving
up Benson avenue, and when she
had reached Fourth street a strap
broke in the harness. allowing the
buggy to run onto the horse. This
frightened him and he ran away.
But Mrs. johnson held the lines
tightly and she had the animal un-
der control after he had run about
three blocks. Mrs. johnson had
three of her boys with her in the
buggy, but strange to say, not one
of them even fell out.

Injured I'm Accident.

Anton Bengtson of Nest Lake
met with a very painful accident
last Saturday afternoon while at
work on. the road with his team.
The horses were frightened by a
passing automobile and in their
fierce lunge forward, Anton was
struck on his shoulder by the front
part of the wagon. One of An
toms comrades caught one of the
lines and thereby swung the fright
ened team to the side, otherwise it
is likely that the wagon would
have passed over Anton with more
serious results. AS it was no bones
were broken and the injured man
is expected to be able to be- about
again after short lay-off. ..

Fire DESTROYS Farm Property

A machine shed on the A. G.
Lundberg farm in the Town of New
London was consumed by fire Thurs
day last week. 1t is believed that
the fire was started by a little
grandchild who was staying at the
farm at the time and who probably
had been playing with matches.
The women folks were alone home
when the fire started Mr.. Lundberg
being in town.. The boys who were
working on the road nearly mile
away saw the smoke and reached
home before their mother knew of
the fire. They at once telephoned
to town for help. A couple of au.
tos were pressed into service and
several men from the village were
soon on the scene. They succeeded
in saving the granery but about all
the farm machinery was destroyed
as was also the corncrib, and its
contents. We understand that the
loss was only partly covered by in
surance.

industries was completed at St.
Paul today when the factory and
rights of the Zenith Fuel Saver and
Smoke Abater Co. of this city
passed into the control of the Amer
lean Manufacturing Corporation,
just organized under the laws Of
Arizona, with an authorized capi-
tai of 81 100000. The new corpor-
alton controls the Playford Patented
Cement Stave in all of United States
and Canada, and it will push the
manufacture and sale of the slaves
as rapidly as possible. The COM
pany will continue the manufacture
Of the slaves at Willmar at the
plant recently acquired by the Ze-
NTH Company and will increase the
capacity as rapidly as the necessary
ma chimes are made and the sales
will warrant. 1t will be the aim
of the new company to place this
practical utility before the people
of the State of Minnesota during
this season thru systematic pub
licity campaign including a COM
plete exhibit at the State. Fair, af-
ter which it plans extending the
work into other states. The &C.
ment stave is a new device very
simple in construction and is prac-
tical for SO many uses that the pa
tent is a most valuable one. It can
be used for building silos, railroad
and farm water tanks and watering
troughs, we'll curbing, culverts,
standpipes, sewers, etc. etc.. Sllos
are becoming more and more ne
cessity on all progressive farms,
and those built Of this particular
stave have proven their superiority
over silos of other construction.
A number have been built by the
patentee, Mr.. Playford, near his
home in Cassopolis, Mich, and they
are giving the best Of satisfaction.
While the new corporation was
organized primarily for the purpose
of manufacturing and selling the
cement slaves it will aim to in
crease its scope by acquiring other
patents on practical machinery as.
we'll as agencies, thus looking for
ward to the establishment of a large
manufacturing plant at Willmar.
The corporation was organized
by Atty. j. A. GiantvalIey and E.
J. Wahl Of St. Paul and Emil Mel
son Of this city. Mr.. Nelson is
president and general manager and
Mr.. Giantvalley secretary. The
general Offices of the corporation
will be at Willmar with branch
office at Minneapolis.

BASEBALL SEASON :
T T CLOSED This. WEEK
Seminary Defeats High School
: in Exciting Game. Benson
and Litchfield Defeated.

The baseball season for the local
schools closed last Monday after
noon when the Seminary and the
High School met for the third time
this year. Each team had won a
game, and both were determined
to get the rubber. The result was
as exciting contest as one could
wish for. It was one of those
"You-never-can-tell" affairs that
cause a good deal Of heart disease,
and the outcome was in doubt till
the last man was out. Both Hengs-
tier and Kiland pitched good ball,
but the latter kept his hits scat
tered. He also struck out Z men
to Hengstler's 2. The fourth was
the big inning for the stays, when
they picked three singles and two
doubles, which, together with a
base on balls, gave them four
scores. They got one more in the
seventh and two in the eighth MAX
ing a total of z, while the best the
highs could do was 6. Features of
the game were the hitting of
Grangaard, who got two doubles.
Leonard Anderson, with a single
and a double, W. S. Johnson with
a single and a double, Aug. Paul.
soa and ''Buck'' Johnson with a
triple picece, and "Dutch" Ives,
who besides getting two singles and
a triple also fie)ded a good game at
second.
The Seminary met the Benson
High here Saturday and played
them off their feet, winning easily
by score of 10 to O.. Five hits,
with Z errors on the part of Ben
son, tells the story Of how it was
done. Kiland pitched his usual
steady game, and the visitors never
had much Of a chance.
The High School defeated Litch.
field in Litchfeld last Wednesday,
the score being 4 to 3. The game
was tie up to the seventh, but in
that inning Chester Ives won the
game for Willmar by knocking out
a twobagger which brought in {
scores. It was his last chance al
the ball too. for two strikes anc
three balls had been called on him
Archie Carlson played a brilliant
game in left field and also cut of
a run by a fine throw to the plate
from deep left. ''Buck' johnson
pitched a fine game. striking ou
no less than 13. II
The High School and the Semin
ary close the season with the sam,
record, each having played Z game
and won 5.
