Maxine Cheese in olden DAVIS.

Cheese was made by the old-time
farmers in the summer on the coop
erative plan by which four cattle own
ers owning say ii mich cows, received
all the milk night and morning, ac-
cording to the daily yield of their
little herd. Thus given two families
and one with one, supposing that the
average yield per COW was the same,
in two weeks, two owners would make
five cheeses each; one would press
three. and one only one cheese, but
this one would be as good and as large
as any of the rest.-"Nobility of the

TORNADO HITS GRAND RAPIDS
One Man Dead From Shock; Forty
injured; $4,000 Loss.

Grand Rapids was hit early Satur-
day morning by a tornado that in
directly caused the death OF one man,
injured 40 or more persons and did
$4,000 worth of damage.
The storm entered the city from
the southwest about o'clock. The
first place struck was the city market
and the Grand Rapids Central league
baseball park near by. The market
was crowded with farmers with their
teams, as trading had just begun.
A terrific lightning and thunder
storm which had been approaching
had given no warning of the danger
from the wind, but suddenly there
were screams of fright as whirling
balloon-like cloud approached, racing
from the southwest and headed di-
.rectly toward the market place
With roar which was deafening
the roof of the ball park grandstand
was lifted high in the air 1t seemed
to hang suspended for a moment and
then, shattering into a veritable rain
of great planks and beams, was
dashed upon the frightened men and
wagons in the market place.
Immediately there was a panic.
Terror-stricken horses reared and
dashed frantically to escape. Wagons
were overturned. Men and women
were thrown prone by the fury of the
wind and run over and rendered I'M
conscious by the dashing teams.
Where moment before the hun
dreds of loads of produce had been
in orderly array awaiting the begin
ming of the mornings trading there
was chaos.
Police reserves were called out at
once to care for the victims.

hours in Detroit Monday, decided to
send out nominating petitions for
candidates named for federal and state
officers at the primary election to be
held Aug. 81.

ceived assurance from one of his
friends that Mr.. Mcdonald would
make the race.

only one presented IN connection with
the gubernatorial nomination. Alva M.

mentioned in connection with the
governorship that they would not run,
The ten men he mentioned are Pro.
