French Aviator Performs Feat Which
Astounds Aerial Enthusiasts
of the World.

Juvisy, France, Sept. 2.-The daring
French aviator Peugoud, who on August
20 made a parachute drop from an aero
plane from height of 900 feet, has ae-
complished a much more remarkable
feat, which at first sight appears to
have been a piece of extraordinary
aerial aerobats. Peugoud caused his
monoplane to describe a gigantic letter
IS" in the sky during which he was
flying upside down for quarter Of a
mile.
As the machine dropped swiftly the
tail dipped again towards the earth and
the pilot appeared headdownward. Sec
onds, which seemed hours, passed. With
an almost imperceptible curve, the ma
chine shifted its course to a straight
line the pilot in the same position. How
long he remained upscidedown the anxious
watchers could not determine, but it
was long enough to cause them to be-
lieYe that he never would right himself
Presently the monoplane dipped again and
with a graceful curve assumed an erect
position. Peugoud flew for few min
utes to and fro and descended BY a
series of beautiful spirals.

1owa's apple crop has been marketed
and farmers received exceptionally
high prices for the crop, according to
r. c. Arthur, farmer at the public mar
ket. He says the growers had to sell
their apples six weeks earlier than
usual as the fruit lacked the keeping
qualities.
"Our apples this year had to be mar
keted six weeks earlier than usual"
said Arthur. I'm former years we were
able to keep the fruit until January or
February before it began to go back
The warm weather of last summer de-
veloped the apples to such an extent
that they began to decay early in No.
vember SO that by this time there Is
scarcely any good apples left in Iowa.
The farmers had to sell them.
II am now selling what have left
in the way of apples. But like all tho
other apples on the market, they are
inferior in quality. In ordinary sea-
sons we could not have any sale for
this kind of stuff at all.
"The trouble with the Iowa farmer
is that he does not take care of his
apple trees The farmers put out a
tree and after it becomes ten years
old they think it is able to take care of
itself We should spray the trees
more and get rid of the worms. The
trees should be trimmed and the
ground cultivated. The only way we

CRUSHED CHILD'S
HEAD INTO GROUND

North Liberty, Nov. 20.-The little
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Glenn Myers
Is reported as recovering from an in
jury in which recovery is hardly less
than miraculous. She had gone to the
playing around the wagon fell in such
a way that the heavy farm wagon.
loaded with forty bushels Of corn and
Weighing more than ton, passed di
rectly over her head. The maHk Of the
wheel was visible from just above the
ear to just above the eye. That the ac-
cident was not instantly fatal was due
to the softness Of the ground. The
heavy wagon had crushed the little
girls head deep into the plowed
ground. After two, days, in which it
was feared she would die, the little
girl is recovering.
