E. D. Hamilton Ssriously III

E. D. Hamilton, Cashier of the First
National Bank was taken seriously i'll
on last. Wednesday. On Saturday
night DR.. Babcock was called and dia-
gnosed the case as acute appendicitis,
a surgeon was called from Grand Island
who orrived on Sunday and Mr.. Hamil-
ton was Immediately operated on. The
appendix had broken and his entire
system had become completely poisen-
ed SO that his chances of recovery
were extremely doubtful. All that
medical science and good nursing can
do to save his life is being done. This
Thursday forenoon considerable hopes
were held out for his recovery as he
passed fairly good night but at noon
to-day he had another turn for the
worse and at the time of going to press
little hopes are had for his recovery
but we sincerely hope with his multi
tude of friends that in our next issue
we can report him on the high way to
complete recovery.

Shaving Down the Lister Ridges,
HENRY HATCH

hENh1 hAICH-
We have in use home made imple-
ment that, for killing weeds on lister
ridges, beats anything else lever saw.
The beauty of it is anyone can make it.
Here is the way we do it: We begin by
getting out two runners, each six feet
long. They are made of 2x6 lumber.
These runners are placed fourteen inches
apart, from outside to outside and are
spiked solidly together by means Of
piece of 2x6, close to each end, and
2x12 plank in the middle. Between the
middle plank and crosspiece at the
front ars spiked two-inch plank of suf-
ficient length to ride over the 'he ridge
on each side of the cutter. This is done
to balance the cutter-to keep it f.Om
tipping too much from side to side. On
the 2xl2 crosspiece- the middle ore
we bolt an old mower spring and
seat, necessary attachment to all up
to date implements. After making the
hitch. by means of chain and clevis,
the sled cutter is ready for the knives.
The knives will probably have to be
made by blacksmith rnles ranch is
equipped for doing such work as many
now are. They must be made of steel,
be about forty-two inches long and not
less than four inche, wide, with thick
ness enough to give them proper
strength. Blacksmiths usually have
bar steel that can be easily hammered
to an edge. to use in making these knives
1t is necessary to bolt these knives to
the sled-runner, close to the bottom,
using two bolts tu each knife. A turn
must be given them where they bolt to
the runner, so they will slant back at
such an angle that the back end of the
knife will only little more than take
the center of the ridge. When the
knives are forty-two long before being
bent at the end to fit the runner. and
rows average three feet and six inches
in width, this gives the proper slant for
doing good work.

They All Say Good Things about
,Julesburr

We wish we could reprint all the
good things that our visitors at the
Editorial Convention are saying about
us, The Brush Republican and the
Sterling Advocate had something over
colum of good things to say about Us
and We copy part of the Brush ar
ticle.
Julesburg has certainly live bunch
of boosters spelled with large B. The
town has municipal plants that furnish
water, light and heat.
They have complete sewer system,
cement walks on every hand, good
schools, churches. a county building and
fine Commercial Club room. The
lawns and private houses are pride
to its residents. The newspaper fra
ternity i. is represented by Clarence
Finch of the News and Mr.. Dobell of
the Grit Advocate; both men are hust
lers and boosters, and contrary to all
precedents in the business they are
bosom friends. The two banks are a
credit to the town. Their officers are
the leaders in every important enter
prise in the community, are not busi-
ness rivals in the sense that they
would seek to destroy rather than
boost the community in which they do
business. They are at present negoti-
ating jointly for the use of large sum
of money to lend at per cent to their
farmers, VINO, they are far sighted
enough to see, are the basis of prosper
ity of their town and county.
While there, we were fortunate en-
ough to meet the two local pastors.
These two are right in with the bust
ness men and are active workers in the
community, not only in their own
province, but they are active members
of the towns commercial organization
and are in the forefront of christian
and business activity. AS one guest
aptly said 81 wish our town could get
those two live sky pilots. Believe me
they are the first of their kind have
seen VINO do not wear that sanctimoni-
Gus air that makes you think you have
no right to live and have to work little
Sunday morning and do not attend
Church regular. If we had them down
our way l believe l would get up SUM-
day morning and go to church and like it.

resignation. said TO a Washington cor
respondent:
IL believe in enforcing the pure food

Put the people first-that is my theory.
Don't put the food manufacturer first

CALUMET WINS
sundays GAME
LOCALS DEFEAT ISHPEMlNG 9 TO
2-LosE SATURDAY BY
SCORE 13 TO S.

With kid" JUL i'm the box yester-
day afternoon at the Laurium driving
park. Calumet took ample revenge
from Ishpeming for Saturdays defeat,
the locals winning 3 to .. JUL was
IN great form, and with almost per-
feet support behind him, kept the
game well i'm hand.
A regrettable incident marred the
game somewhat In the sixth inning.
Burton had been pitching up to this
time for Ishpeming, and the locals,
having solved his delivery. Scott was
substituted. Instead OF conforming to
the rules of baseball he started to
eral balls. Umpire Sincock called two
balls on him and a wrangle ensued
that delayed the game for a quarter ot
an hour. A similar occurrence took
place Saturday afternoon. The cap
tain of the Ishpeming team seems 70
have a habit of delaying play when
his team begins going up in the air
He's a foxy quiller.
Ishpeming started the scoring in the
first inning yesterday, bringing in a
run on misjudged flies in the outer
garden. The visitors scored again in
the third. Calumet took a brace i'm
this inning and evened the score.
With two men on bases in tho
fourth it looked as If Ishpeming would
add to it's score. Hansen sent out
high one to centerfeld. which Hogan
speared with his ungloved hand. while
going at top speed. retiring the side.
1t was the eighth inning that was
fatal TO Ishpeming. With two men
on bases, kid" Juul landed on Scott
for two-bagger, scoring McLaugh-
lin and Lobb. Noyes singled .advanc-
ing Juul, and then Hogan raped out
single that scored both JUL and
Noyes.
Both Burton ana Scott were given
loose support while Calumets support
of JUL was the best yet seen on the
lc cal diamond The features of the
game were the excellent work of Juul
in the box. timely hitting on the part
OF the locals, and the fine catch by
Hogan in center field.
