DAYTON Has Had Six Floods,

Dayton, O.. has stood in the shadow
of disaster from flood ever since its
foundation. No less than six times
previous to the present inundation
have the rivers which flow through
it left their accustomed courses and
brought death and destruction of
property upon the town. The first OF
these floods occurred in 1906, the very
year that Dayton was incorporated as
a town. The sixth was in 1898 and
the others in the years 1S47, 1868.

Demonstrating Farm

MT. l.. A. Markham, Co D mis sioner of Agriculture for the St, Louis, Iron Mountain & South ern Railway, visited our city on last Friday, the 3rd., and inspect ed a farm near Hope, owned by Mir. N, P. O'Neal, of the Hope Brick Works, the contemplated use of which is to establish here a demonstration farm. Mir. o. Neal has since received tele- phone message from Mr. Mark, ham confirming a deal for the property.
 The assistance of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, thru it's special agent, Mr. A. A. Cor don, has been solicited by Mr. Markham, and will doubtless be received in establishing the farm. Other places were investigated, both in this vicinity and at other points along the Iron Mountain line, but the O'Neal property was found to more fully meet the re- quirements. The establishing of this farm here should give added impetus to the development of agriculture in Hampstead coun- ty, and will doubtless be of great benefit to our people. Star of Hope,
