rhe court house proposition coming
before the board the following resolu-
tion was offered:
Whereas Stark county has more than
800 votes and has been organized more
than four years and the county seat
having been permanently located as
provided by law, and the building &C.
cupied by said county for a court house
and Jail purposes are inadequate to the
wants of the county and are unsafe by
reason of extraordinary fire risk. and
the Jail not being sufficiently strong to
safely detain prisoners, and the county
being the owner of q suitable site, the
same being the block in the city of
Dickinson upon which the old court
house now stands.
NOW: Therefore be it resolved by the
board of county commissioners of Stark

be ordered in said Stark county for the
purpose Of determining by a vote of the

Heavy smuggling by Luderus
and Ineffective pitching by four
Cub hurlers lost the first on the
West Side yesterday.
Luderus put a homer into the
right field bleachers with the
bases loaded in the first inning,
and tripled in the second with one
on.
After the game Chance won
dered why he ever let the Phllly
first sacker get away from him.
Richie, Smith, Maroney and
Laender all tried their luck in the
box. Richie and Smith were soft
for the Quakers. Lavender went
in in the tenth with tho<score tied.
Magee and Cravath singled in
the eleventh. Sherwood scored
on a fly, and Cravath stole home
with the winning run.
The Cubs almost tied the score.
Safer singled, Needham scored
him with double after two were
out, but Lavender famed.
Chance used 18 players, and
they banged Fl hits. Sheckard
got three safeties, and the rest of
the outfeld and infeld bagged
two each.
Miller and Downs, acting as
pinch hitters, delivered singles.

double.
Magee had a freak record. He
had but two legal times at bat
and scored four runs. He sacri-
feed twice, was passed twice,
poled two hits, stole two bases.
Ed Reulbach lasted through
the second game after allowing
two runs in the first inning. He
was invincible thereafter.
Safer and Evers were the big
noises in this battle. Each pes
tied homers in the fourth, and the
Trojan drove in another run and
scored himself in the sixth.
AS the Giants did not play, the
Cubs dropped farther behind.
Boston had scored ten runs in
the first inning off Cicotte and
Bell and only two men were out.
Hooper and Speaker had each

St. Louis walked away from

LIME NOT HARMFUL TO SOIL
Idea That Injury Is Done by Applca,
ton Is Utter Absurdlty, Says
Indiana Bulletin.

The utter absurdity of the idea that
the use of a ton or two of limestone
per acre may seriously injure the soil,
says an Indiana bulletin. becomes at
once apparent when it is recalled that
limestone soils are world famous for
their fertility, and have been for gen
erations. The real trouble with some
Of the soils in cur eastern states
which are said to have been injured
by the use of lime is lack of organic
matter and nitrogen as much as any
thing else.
This lack of organic matter and
nitrogen is traCeable, in both cases,
mainly to poor rotations or none at
all, poor care of manure or the produc-
ton of an insufficient amount, and
burning or selling straw and slower,
and the final results seem to have
been largely independent of the use
or nonuse of lime. This statement
must not be taken to mean that lime
never eXerts an unfayOTable effect. but
rather that a good part of the unfa.
Vorable effect general attributed
to it is in reality due to poor methods
of farming
Lime is simply made a convenient
excuse, a scapegoat, just as is COM
merCial fertilizer in certain sections,
and with no more reason.

determined to prove herself equal to
her fathers expectation and demand.

WAYS TO CURE PEAVINE HAY
Where Grass Is Allowed to Remain
Spread on Ground Water Runs Off
Without lnjurine Crop.

We have tried several ways of cur
says a farm writer, but the way we
now practice is to let hay lie just as
the machine cuts it until it is about
cured, or we get ready to haul it in.
Don't get scared if it rains on your
hay. Rain will not hurt hay very
much, only in appearance" if it gets
wet before it is raked into windows
or piled up in small piles.
We used to think that rain would
ruin hay, but about six years ago one
morning I moved a field of peas,
cane and crabgrass. That same day
another one of my neighbors cut hay.
and after two days of sunshine there
set in a wet spell of about two weeks
My neighbor, having plenty of help,
raked his hay and piled it in small
piles, but did not have help and did
not touch mine. The result was this:
At the end Of two weeks my neigh
boris hay piles were wet through and
rotten. | examined my hay and decid
ed that it was worth saving, so raked
it up and everything ate it very we'll
Since then do not get so scared when
l see a cloud coming up, because il
hay is spread on the ground the
water will pass through it to the
ground. But if it is punched up and
gets wet it is almost sure to turn
black and rot
