WILL QUALIFY AS
MARKSMEN NOW
Co. A Men to Begin Individual
Work on Rifle Ranges
Immediately.
NEW SYSTEM THIS YEAR
New and Old Members Divided into
Separate Classes-Plan
Good One.

Individual rife work will be begun
in earnest by the Company A men, now
that they have returned from camp at
Sparta, Wis, and the range at the
Watch Tower will be the scene of in
creased activities until the end of the
season. The individual work, that of
qualifying for marksmen, was inaug-
urated in June, but owing to the COM
petitive shooting to determine the per
sonnet of the company team, the other
work has been neglected to a certain
extent
NEW SYSTEM.
The range work this year will be a
departure from that of previous sea-
sons in that a new system has been
adopted, that Of dividing the men into
two separate classifcations. All men
who have previously qualified as marks
men will shoot the regular army rang
| es, 200 and 300 yards, slow and rapid,
| 500 yard, 600 yard, and two skirmish
runs, making possible 500 points. This
division will be known as class A. All
new men and the old men who have
not before qualified as marksmen, will
shoot the class B ranges, consisting
of the 200. 300, 500 and 600 yard dis
tances, all slow fire. Glass B men do
not have to declare their score before
they begin, but can take the best rep
resentative score of the season for
each range, while the class A men
must declare their intention of making
a record before they begin to fire.
BETTER TRAINING.
By the new system the recruits will
have a much better opportunity tC
qualify as marksmen and incidentally
familiarize themselves with a rifle.
Hitherto, all men in the company have
shot the regular army ranges, re
CARELESS, thereby imposing a hardship
on the "rooks." 1t is also claimed thai
a saving of fully so rounds of ammuni
ton will be effected by the creation Of
the class B slow fire ranges.

Occasional showers in the eastern

coast. Scattered showers and thund

Harvesting Alfalfa

The time has come when the farm
ers of Illinois must pay more atten-
ton to providing feeds for winter-to
the palatability and digestibility of
have quality and conditions as near
like those of summer as possible.
AS rule, we allow our clover to grow
too old, and many of us have not yet
learned just how to harvest the al
falfa crop.
There are different ways of curing
alfalfa and we should adopt that meth
cd by which we can best conserve the
protein element, and that is the leaf
part. The alfalfa leaf will test about
% to 26 per cent protein, while the
stalk tests only about six per cent,
so we must employ that method of
curing which will not lose the leaves.
The best way to judge the proper
time to cut alfalfa is to watch the
root growth. When it is ready to cut,
the second growth has made a start
and the crop should be removed re.
CARELESS of blossom, because If we
wait too long the second crop will get
we'll started and its growth will be
injured in harvesting the first.
The leaf of the growing plant is
the outlet for the moisture in the
stalk. If we keep the leaves green
it does not take a great while to rid
the stalks of the moisture contained
in them; if we let the leaves dry up
quickly we shut off the escape OF
moisture, so we must keep the leaves
green.
A good plan is to cut alfalfa in the

Enforce the Ordinance.

We call on our city officials to
enforce the ordinance requiring
parties to hitch their teams. Dur
ing the past week there have
been four or five teams to run
away with vehicles and wagons,
and the life of the pedestrian is
put at stake. Two teams ran
away in the western part of town,
one of, which came very near
running over the son OF Frank
Williamson. On Monday there
was one on Court street and a
pair of mules with wagon ran on
Spring street.
This thing will not be stopped
until The driver is hauled before
the mayor and given a good stiff
fine. This is the only remedy.
and the sooner it is settled, The
better for all. All horses will run
away.

Fair Dates Set.

DIR. E. D. Foster, representing
the Tri-County Fair Association,
spent several days in Jackson the
past week attending a meeting
of the representatives of the cir
cult Of Kentucky, Tennessee and
Missississippi, to which this asso'
ciation has recently been joined.
The dates agreed on for fall fair
were fixed for Oct. 8, 9, 10, IL.
Now that the dates have been
set, the management should make
haste to get the premium list in
the hands of the farmers. Here
totore the exhibits have not been
what they should have been by
the failure to let the people know
what is open to them. Unless we
can interest the people, our fairs
will fall far short Of what they
should be. This is an agricultur-
al country strictly, and we must
rely on the farmer to bring in his
best product, and in order to get
him to do this, we must offer pre-
miums that will pay him to com
pete. While races are necessari-
ly a leading feature. any fair will
fall through if the races become
the main feature. Get out the
catalogue now.
