the court house January "a and
rs, with President Holderman
presiding. Prof. Wheeler of the
State Agricultural College was
present and gave an interesting
talk about the experimental
farms, as to object, manner of
conducting, results, answering
questions. Sentiment seems to
be to get busy Mr.. Commission
ers experiment at our poor farm,
put some of our dependents on
it and save cost of keeping them
along with developing better
farming.
Improving our forage crops,
led by F. c. Judd, Boston and
others.
Experience with cane, by S.
Rats, Copple, Keith and Judd.
Summary, lettering selection of
seed through cultivation, care in
cutting and curing.
Adjourned to 1:3O P. m.
Afternoon session. The oats
problem as to seed bed, time,
rate, cutting, etc, led by r. W.
Campbell, discussed by S, M.
Bennett, Copple and others. H.
f. banks says take three or four
barrels, set a few feet apart,
build green or weedy grain
around them lift up and continue
till near top then top out. Ever
try it?
Improving yield and quality of
wheat, by ]. A. Denslow, gen
eral discussion was engaged in
by many as to seed bed, kind of
seed, time, smut and cheet, and
summer tillage. Final conclu-
sion reached that most any kind
of preparation and any old time
of seeding has brought forth
good harvest but that it takes
some moisture, some time to
grow wheat and that if we do not
get moisture in some form within
the next six months the new
commissioners nor the old tim
ers either, would harvest any
wheat in 1911.
Improvement of corn and for
age crops by breeding, by Prof.
Wheeler, was given in the after
noon so more could hear him.
He left out the hot wind.
Wednesday morning, Mr..
Rats, Dunn and Denslow were
appointed to nominate officers
for the ensuing year. The hog
business by S. N. Rats; why
not more sheep, H. F. banks.
Discussed by Booth, Dunn, Cock

on barbed wire or straw roof for
good shelter, if sheep eat the
Russian thistle then more sheep.
And if we want to cut down high
cost of living do not ship your

INJURED IN LEAP
SEEKING SAFETY

Jamestown, May 16-Sunday, Miss
Fannie Dunning, who was riding in
a carriage behind team of horses
driven by John Knauf, met with an
accident in jumping from the carriage
after the horses had started to run
away. The accident occurred near the
viaduct under the N. P. track in the
eastern part of the city. AS the team
started up the bits in one of the
brides gave way, and Mr.. Knauf was
unable to manage the team entirely,
he endeavored to head the team to-
wards a house and the sidewalk.
fortunately assistance was near by and
the team was stopped near the City
hospital. Miss Dunning sustained
rather severe injuries, having a sprain
ed ankle, a cut on the face and bruised
soldier. She was rendered uncon-
scious temporarily, and taken to the
city hospital where her injuries were
treated. Two small children of Mr..
Knauf were also in the carriage i, at
the time, but none of the other occu.
pants were injured.

THE SMALL FARMER,

The "ten acres and independence"
argument which has induced thous.
ands of city men to go back to the
land" movement in which Chicago
was headquarters, has been challenged
by a monograph to the American Sta,
tistical association, written by Pro-
lessor T. N. Carver of Harvard uni
versity. "They are holding up to
our admiration the French peasant"
he said, "but the French peasant who
has to make his living by general
farming of a thirty.acre. farm must
Of necessity use inferior methods of
production. Such a farm will not
support good team of horses, some
times not even yoke of oxen. The
farmer therefore finds it more eco
nomical to use his mich COW for q
draft animal and do the rest Of the
work by hand. That is, he will have
more left for himself by this process
than he would if he tried to use a
team of horses, for the horses would
eat up 50 large proportion of the

COMMENCEMENT GOWNS.

Efforts at solving the commence
ment gown problem are not confined
to Washington, according to the
Washington Star 1t is a question
with which other educational authori-
ties are wrestling. One of the wom'
ans colleges in Massachusetts to pre-
vent the students from devoting too
much of their thought and perhaps
too much of their parents cash to
the gown matter have ordered plain
skirt effect in white goods uniformly
made. The young ladies who were
dreaming of "creations" studying
plans for building" gowns and con-
templating the wearing of rats, puffs,
hair combs, barrettes, lockets, brace
lets and the like, are somewhat
wrought up over the severity of that
discipline which would prescribe a
standard commencement dress. Not
withstanding the excellent taste Of
the young ladies and the excellent
style with which they wear their
clothes, they cannot each one of them
have the prettiest dress, and not to
hav the prettiest dress is to feel
disappointment which may mar all the
fun and good times of the commence
ment season.
AS a general proposition it is dis.
agreeable to oppose the wishes of any
young lady and painful to invite her
displeasure but school authorities in
trying to reform commencement fash
ions may finally be rewarded with the
thanks of the old olks at home and
at length somewhere in the dim and
distant future may be forgiven by the
young ladies themselves.

total crop as to leave him less fol
his own family, even though the
horses could do more work than the
mich COW. This type of small-scale
farming also seems to be disappear
ing, judging from the statistics which
have been given U.S. The soil is
being made to produce more through
cultivation, not through the use of
more labor, but by the use of more
capital. That seems to be the sig
nificant thing that is happening in the
state of Iowa and the agricultural re-
gions of the surrounding states"

From Montreal the company will
have access to the seaport for its
through freight by means Of an inter-
change Of traffic at Montreal with the
Intercolonial Railway. The line
is already completed from Port Ar
thur to the Rockies, and construction
is in progress in British Columbia to
the Pacific terminus near Vancouver,
which has been named Port Mann.
The three transcontinental lines
practically will give Ontario points
three competing lines to the west and
through the west will give three COM
peting lines to the Pacific seaports.
1t will open up an extensive strip of
rich agricultural and mineral country
in northern Ontario and Ottawa val
ley. In addition the company pro-
poses to construct line from the
Georgian Bay north to the main line,
tapping a district now unserved by
railways.
Hon. George P. Graham, who intro
duced the resolution for the bond
guarantee called attention to the de-
velopment of the western provinces
and the rapidly expanding trade and
commerce Of it's Dominion and of
the need of another line of railway to
assist in direct and economical in
terchange of trffic; also to open up
portions of the country now without
railways and he pointed out that the
Canadian Northern Ontario Railway
will provide the necessary link.
The resolution contains a general
clause specifying the character of the
line; rails are to be not less than 80
pounds, the maximum east bound
grade shall not exceed five-tenths of
one per cent and the maximum west
bound grade shall not exceed six
tenths of one per cent. One provision
specifies that before the aid is granted
the governor and counsel shall re-
quire the company to enter into an
agreement undertaking that all the
freight originating on any of the COM
pany's lines not specifically routed
otherwise by the shippers shall, when
destined to points in Canada, be car
ried over the Canadian Northern

ARMY AEROPLANE|
NOT Defective

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,, May 49,
Glenn H. Curtiss today characterized
as an utter impossibility the report
that a United States Army board of
inquiry at San Antonio, Tex, had
found that an improperly located bolt
hole in the seat fork caused the aero.
|plane smashup in which resulted the
death of Lieutenant George E. NJ.
Kelly on Thursday.
Mr.. Curtiss laid the accident to the
comparative inexperience of the army
aviator anu of the extremely danger
GUS ground over which he was travel
ing.
Il am absolutely certain" declared
Mr.. Curtiss, that no part of that ma
chine broke while in the air, and even
If it were so there are many factors Of
safety that an accident would not
have resulted from that cause. An
improperly located bolt hole could not
possibly have caused the accident.
It doesn't seem possible that this find
ing can be the official report of the
army board.
':As we'll as l can Judge. the accident
to Lieutenant Keny was the result of
bad landing. He came down at a
very sharp angle and bounced right up
into the air again and fell. The
grounds at San Antonio are peculiarly
bad for aeroplaning, and the army
should not have attempted to conduct
its tests, there, particularly with a
man of Lieutenant Kelly's comparative
inexperience."
"The landing place is very small
and the aviator has to come down
very suddenly. It is quite possible
that the seat prong broke through a
bolt hole in the smashup when the b.
plane struck, but am positive that the
break did not occur in the air, and
under no circumstances could it have
been the cause Of the accident.
1T is apparent that If any part of
the machine did give way it was only
after Lieutenant Kelly had brought
the biplane to the ground. Evidently
his landing subjected the machine to a
severe strain, but I know of no way
in which the aeroplane could start up
again unless the operator put his foot
on the throttle control and started
the motor before the propeller had
ceased to whirl.
II woulu not be surprised If Lieu
tenant Kelly accidentally started the
motor and became bewildered when
he was taken by surprise in finding
the machine plunging forward after
he had considered his flight at an
end.
"The accident is deplorable and
Lieutenant Kelly as did,
am at loss to express myself regard
ing the misfortune"

0STEOPATnS HIT BY
The APPELLATE COURT

NEW YORK, May 16.-By a decis-
ion of the appellate division Of the
supreme court yesterday the ruling
Of the board of health refusing to &C.
cept death certificates signed by doc
tors of osteopathy was upheld. This
suit in question has been contested
for more than a year, and it was an
nounced after the decision that the
fight would be carried further-either
to the court of appeals or to the legis-
lature.
DR.. Charles 8. Green, president of
the Osteopathic society of the City
of New York, declared that the decis-
ion had left the members in his So
ciety in dubious position, and that
while osteopaths were recognized as
competent physicians by state law the
board of health was seeking to handi-
cap and discredit them by refusing
to accept ueath certificates signed
by them.
in almost every stae in the Union
and in our own state outside of New
York city," said DR.. Green, "the oste-
opath stands on practically the same
plane with the practitioners Of the
older schools and his certificate is
equally valuable for all purposes. The
nvidious. and hurtful discrimination
is done here simply because the gen.
tlemen who control the board of
health practically nullify the state
law in their attempt to maintain a
of healing.
Every duly qualified osteopath is
a regularly licensed physician under
the state law. In order to nullify and
evade this stAtute the board of health
here issued an order that no removal
or burial permit would be issued in
any case where the death certificate
is not signed by a doctor of medicine
or coroner"

airy title of Mayor, but possesses no

most radical feature of this plan lies
in the fact that the council selects
"city manager who appoints all city
employees subject to civil service
rules, prepares the annual budget,
and is responsible to the council for
the administration of all the city de-
partments except the schools.
Advocates of the Lockport plan con-
tend that in the creation of this city
manager lies the chief advantage of
the plan over any other. 1t completes,
they hold, the resemblance of the
city government to the efficient pri-
vate corporation. They see an advan-
tage in this single-headed executive
in place of the five headed system
of the DesMoines plan, because it dis
poses of the conflict of authority and
responsibility where the board as a
whole is responsible for all the depart
ments and where each commissioner
is at the same time responsible for
his own. The anomaly of commits
sioners in their legislative capacity
passing ordinances which they enforce
as executives, and voting moneys
which they expend, is also obviated.
1t is also contended that the new plan
frees the voter from the necessity of
trying to gage the fitness of candi-
dates to undertake executive and
technical work as department heads
for which they may have neither the
ability nor the inclination. 1t is be-
lieved, too, that the list of available
