of the fire fiend been done that not a
single clue has been secured to his
identity. The matter is getting upon
the nerves of the people to an extent
that public demand is made that
something be done. The latest OUT
break was fire which nearly con
sumed the new home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harvey Turner. The house was just
ready to be occupied but no one was
sleeping in it, the owners never sus-
pecting that it would be singled out
for blaze. The fire was discovered
early in the evening-just at dusk
and it was found that fire had been
started in five different places inside
the residence, coal oil having been
used extensively by the fiend. A
bottle was found which had been
used to deposit the oil upon the shaw
ings in the different parts of the
house. These fires have occurred
With a frequency that is alarming and
recall the repeated attempts made a

Avoca. The fires there remained a
mystery for months but finally ceased

/ In accordance with the usual Gus
tom, New Years day will be an open
day at the Young Mems Christian AS
ISOLATION building. Quite a program
has been planned, consisting chiefly
of free games and athletics among
the gymnasium classes. Beginning
at .. m, basket ball game will be
played between the High school team
and Penn Third Year Academy team.
At 4 o'clock will be the spectacular in
door base bali game in which some
of the local professionals will be en-
gagged. At 5 O'Clock the two divisions
| OF the business meI's class will make
charge in a fierce combat of volley
ball. The two teams have been prac-
ticing for some time and both feel
confident of victory. This game is
somewhat new to the general public,
but it is a favorite game with the
business mcr. They have become
very efficient in it and any one that
enjoys a good fast game will not be
disappointed il they see this one.
In the evening there will be two
more games of basket ball. Begin
ming at 7:15. the intermediate team
will meet the New Sharon boys in a
preliminary game, after which the
All Stars who are home on their
Christmas vacation will play the ".
NJ. C. A. boys in a final basket ball
game.
Everybody is cordially invited to
come out and enjoy any or all Of the
games, as they may feel inclined. IL
will, probably be expedient to come
early in order to get seat to see
Tie final game at night.

of AL Palzar feels sure he will whip
McCarty at Los Angeles, tomorrow
They are plain country people far
from the maddened whirl of alleged
modern civilization but they have
every confidence in their boy. ut may
be he will be whipped but We are moi
going to believe it until after we
know" said the father to-day "Al has
been trained right at home and if he
wins the championship of the world
he will not squander his money" The
neighboring farmers are chipping in
TO get the fight story by rounds by
leased wire so they can hear of the
expected victory among the first.
There would be a good deal of bet
ting on the fight here if anyone could
be found to bet on McCarty. After
the victory the farmers propose to
celebrate.

age crop is about twelve tons OF beets
to the acre. If we ip Iowa produced
as much sugar proportionately. we
would have about ninety factories
turning out sufficient sugar each year
to supply 100000 people"
That would mean that Iowa would
not only produce her own sugar, but
would produce enough to export three
times the amount which she at present
consumes Although such a stage Of
development is far cry from the
present situation, facts and figures
show that it is by no means a mere
dream Figures compiled at the fac
tory at WaverIy show that the ton

more than six fold in the last six
years. while the yield per acre has
practically doubled. Following are
the figures during the years since the
