The last meeting, Aug. 26, was held
OF the home of Mrs. Barber and was a
real home coming meeting. The topic
was "Home." Four new members
were received by the usual form. A
reading was given by Mrs. Fields, and
a recitation by Mrs. Newton. Reminis-
cences of eye Olden Times of Clio"
were given by Mrs. Jennings. Our
next meeting will be held at the home
of Mrs. j. Bacon. Sept. 9th. Hope to
have a good turn out. If the men
would only think of this verse when
they vote:
"Why should | vote that the curse may
endure?
For what is there in it for me?
I'm bound to vote dry on election day
sure,
For what is there in it for me?
A new self-respect, and chance for
my life,
New clothes for the kids and home
for my wife;
The. beginning of peace, the end of all
strife
And that's what there's in it for me. +"

Narrow Escape

But for faithful collie dog, George
Knickerbocker might have been fatally
injured by an angry bull, Thursday
morning. AS it was, he was quite bad
ly bruised and his hands were lacerated
on barbed wire fence which he
grasped when the bull attacked him.
Mr.. Knickerbocker yelled when he saw
the bull charging and several men came
to his rescue, but the dog was on hand
in moment and threw the bull fiat
upon his back.

A delightful way of serving oranges
to an invalid is to press all the juice
into a glass with lemon squeezer;
add pulverized sugar to taste and
serve with chopped ice. If fresh fruit
is denied a patient, stewed fruit may
be permitted. In order to secure the
very best flavor in apple sauce, which
invalids will relish, wash and quarter
the apples. remove the cores and
stems and stew gently without pairing.
Then press the soft mass through a
colander and beat either with or with
out the white of an egg until it is light
and foamy, sweetening to taste.

Pear Trees Dying
South Side Ball Team.

Nearly all of the pear trees in this
section are affected this year by fire
blight" which is causing many branches
to wither and if not checked will result
in the total destruction of the trees.
The only remedy is to cut off and burn
all branches showing signs of the dis
ease which is caused by germ that
works within the twig. The wood
should be cut several inches below
where it appears dead and the stub
should then be wiped with a cloth
moistened with carbolic acid.

A Challenge

The would-be ball players of. the
north side of Vienna St., who claimed
a victory over the south side players,
after playing two and half innings
during home coming, are hereby chal-
lenged to game of six and half in
nings, to complete the contest before
referred to. said game to be played
within tho next two weeks. This chal-
lenge is made from knowledge that
the north side couldn't play decent
game of tag and are trying to maintain
a phony reputation on game that was
hardly started.

SUDDEN DEATH OF
PIONEER RESIDENT
JOSEPH CUMMINGS FALLS DEAD
WHILE TALKING OVER PHONE
Was a Pioneer of Montrose Township
and Served in the Artillery During
the Civil War.

Last Saturday morning, August 20,
1914, at about nine O'Clock, while en-
gagged in talking with his son. Austin,
over the telephone, Joseph Cummings,
well known resident of Thetford, sank
to the floor and expired. Mr.. Cum
mings' son, Norris, was in a hospital at
Flint at the time, expecting to undergo
an operation on that date and as Austin
intended to be present at the hospital
when the operation was undertaken, he
had called his father on the telephone
to enquire if he, also, would not be able
to go. The latter had just finished tell
ing his son that it would be impossible
for him to do so, as he was not feeling
. well, when suddenly he sank to the
: floor and expired. News of the sad oc-
currence was at once telephoned to the
hospital and the operation was deferred
in order that the son could be present
at his fathers funeral.
Mr. Cummings was born August II,
1845, in the state of New York, coming
with his parents to Hadley, Mich, at
the age of four years, where he resided
until Sept IL, 1864, when he went to
jackson, Mich, and enlisted in the 18th
Mich. Battery. Light Artillery, being
discharged from the service July /,
1866. October II, 1866, Mr.. Cummings
was united in marriage to Miss Mary
Sypher and Immediately brought his
bride to a new home near Montrose,
where from lands covered with heavy
growth of timber, in the course of
years, they wrought out beautiful
farm. 1t may be interesting to note
that when Mr.. and Mrs. Cummings
were making their bridal journey to
their new home in the wilderness they
stopped enroute at the old tavern at
Pine Run and the next day arrived at
their home, which was to be in log
house the groom had previously pre-
pared. Mr.. and Mrs. Cummings resid-
ed on the farm near Montrose for about
sixteen years, when they removed to
Thetford township, which has since
been their home. In all of the affairs
of life, as husband, father, neighbor
and citizen, Mr. Cummings realized a
high type of manhood and his memory
will long be cherished by all who knew
him. Deceased is survived by widow.
three sons and one daughter, the chill
dren being as follows: j. B. Cummings
and Norris Cummings, of Gladwin
County; Austin Cummings, who resides
on the old homestead in Thetford, and
Mrs. Rose Sevener, of Bay City, all of
whom will be deeply sympathized with
in their bereavement. Besides these
members Of his immediate family there
are twenty grandchildren and one great
grandchild, and one brother, Henry,
who resides at Muskegon.
Funeral services were held from the
late home of deceased on Tuesday,
Sept 1, Rev. Gordon, of Otisville, Off

a member. might have charge of his
funeral obsequies, but owing to the alb
sence of many of his comrades at the
National Reunion, then being held in
Detroit, this was found to be impossi-
BILE. Interment was made in Thetford
cemetery.

ASHES GOOD FERTILIZER.
Will Make Soil Porous and Furnish
Some Essential Chemicals.

While you are cleaning UP ash pits
and bins and distributing ash piles it
is well to be reminded of the value Of
this product.
Coal ashes may be put upon the land
if the coarscst portions are rakcd or
siftcu out, and these clinkcrs will
serve as drainage or foundations for
walks about the barnyard and poultry
yard.
Fine coal ashes may be worked into
a clay soil with very good effect of
rendering it more porous as we'll as
supplying some of the chemicals noe
essary to the growth OF plants.
\ moderate amount Of ashes and SCOT
worked into the soil around roses
greatly increases the richness and bril-
lance of roloring in the blossoms and
makes fine foliage. Care must he takel
not to loosen the roots. as roses like
rich. firm soil.

antinc is maintained against foreign

gOts of the Mediterranean fruit fly.
known to cntOmoIogists as Ceratitis
capitata. The fly is about the size Of
the common housetIy, yellow in color,
with eyes Of Il reddish purple tint and
with Il Dlackish blOtch in the center of
the forehead, from which spring two
Dristlcs. The eggs Of the insect are
often laid at from six to twelve inches
underground, and no liquid has been
found that will kill the maggot that
does not ut the same time kill the
foliage of the plant or tree upon which
it happens to be feeding. The mag
COTS have been known to survive 4
half hour bath in spirits and in kerO-
sene oil. The nos dreaded feature Of
this pest is that it works solely from
the inside Of the fruit, while the out
side is apparently all right. While the
fly is partial to citrus fruits, it also
feeds Oh peaches and other fruits and
also vegetables. The fly came origi-
nally from the fruit districts of the
Mediterranean. but has spread to New
Zealand, Australia. the Hawaiian Is
lands and ever Bermuda. An illustra-
ton of the devastation which follows
it's coming is shown in case Of one of
the islands Of the Hawaiian group,
where the fruit growing industry was
wrecked within a year after it put in
an appearance.

Weight Of SiIage in SiIo.

For all practical purposes Il cubic
foot Of silayc in the lower half of Il
SilO will weigh about fifty pounds.
Hence to ascertain tho weight Of Sillge
remaining in the silo it is only ncces-
sary to get the number of cubic feet.
This is determined by multiplying the
diameter of the silo 10y itself and the
result by IS. which will give the area
in square feet of the surface. and null
tiplyinG this result by the depth in
contents. The total weight of silage
would be got by multiplying the cubic
contents by the weight per %foot-tifty
pounds.
