HITS AND RUNS.

Covington, catcher for Brownsville, is
one OF the best all-round players seen
on the home grounds this season.
The Brownsville boys are gentlemen
and made many friends here.
Chink Berry, signed early in the sea-
son from Charlottesville, was excused
from the park Friday. He had sour
disposition, and has been traded to Tip
tonville. Plays good ball, but the fuss
he makes is unbearable.
Morrow pitched faultIess game Mon
day. He had them from the start.
Senter Rainey knows baseball. He
thinks imp. Head gave him the worst
of it Tuesday. You can't win without
swatting the pill, boy.
Elliott, OF Martin, who was with Hum
boldt, is one Of the best players on the
circuit. No fuss and feathers, but plays
ball. Halves, Mesplay, Mcconnell, Fem
tress and Shaw, OF the locals, also be-
long to this class.
Shaw never gets excited. He fills any
position and fills it full.
In Mercer, Watts has a star first SOCK
or. He can't talk, but he can bat.
Mr.. Lind" the side-wheeler, has
been farmed-out to East st. Louis. He
never lost a game. Throws hard and
knocks bootlegger every pop.
Nicks and Ferguson can throw some,
but Union City is still looking for the
fellow who can make Webe HAYES put
down the ashwood. It's an undone
stunt on the local field.
Leslie johnson lent helping hand
Monday. He raped the longest one
ever seen leave the park. That swat
crippled Nicks for life.
Pigue, the Fulton printer, is one fine
squabbler, and no mistake.

loving hands could do was done, but God
knows best; His will be done, not ours
land its spirit is now in that haven Of
rest where there is no pain, no sorrow,
no suffering.

In Memory.

On the morning OF July 16, 1914,
Mrs. Ann Alexander Freeman departed
this life and entered that bright home
above where pain and death can meyer
euter.A She had not seen well day for
long time, although she never MUIR
INJURED or complained. When friends
and neighbors would gather in to see
her she always welcomed them with
that sweet smile, and when asked how
she was would always say, Getting
along as well as could be expected. !"
She was member Of the Christian
Church, her membership being at Berea,
where the funeral services were conduct
ed by Elder John r. Williams. While
they sang consoling hymns, friends and
relatives gazed for the last time on the
sweet face OF theIdear friend and neigh
Dor, mother and wife. Oh, how hard
it is to give up one so good and kind,
but God loves best, his will be done,
not ours. Mrs. Freeman was friend
to everybody. The writer has been in
her home almost every day for the past
three years, and / can truthfully say
her examples can be safely followed.
So, dear children, live as mother has,
and when your life work is ended you
can say as your mother did, you are
ready to go and not afraid of death.
What consolation it is to know she
has gone to rest She is not dead, but
sleepeth.
Dear friend, she has left us,
And our loss we deeply feel,
But It's God that has bereft us
He can all our sorrows heal.
Precious darling; she has left us,
Left us, yes, forevermore,
But we hope to meet our dear one
On that bright and happy shore.
Lonely the house and sad the hours
Since our dear one has gone,
But Oh, a brighter home than ours
In Heaven is now her own.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is still,
Aplace is vacant in our home
Which never can be filed.
IT'S hard to break the tender cord
When love has found the heart,
IT'S hard, so hard, to speak the words:
We must forever part.
Farewell, dear, but not forever,
There shall be glorious dawn,
We shall meet to part no more
On that resurrection morn.
Dearest loved one, we must lay thee
In the peaceful graves embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished
Til we see thy heavenly face.
One Who LOVED HER.

Death Of Mrs. ]. E. Garth.

Mrs. Jennie E. (Campbell) Garth was
born at Ashport, on the Mississippi
River near Ripley, Tenn, on July 10,
1S41. Moved with her fathers family
to near Paducah, KY, in 1859. Joined
the Presbyterian Church in 1860, on or
about that date.
She was married to Robert Garth on
Nov. 7, 1865. She was the mother OF
six children, one still born. Her Oldest
son. Robert Campbell, died on June 20,
1908. She is survived by her husband
and four children Mrs. j. E. Ram
seyer, OF Fort Wayne, Ind; Rev. John
G. Garth, Of Hickory, n. c.; Thomas
R. Garth, of Farmville, Va, and
Albert Lee Garth, OF this city.
She was virtuous woman, as Solo
mon says, whose price is above rubies.
She discharged all her obligations as
wife and mother-as ever in the sight
Of her Maker, the Lord Jesus, whom
she loved and served faithfully all her
days devotedly attached to her dear
children as they have ever been to her,
seeking not only their temporal but
their eternal we'll being. Under her in
spiration they are all found following
in her footsteps, walking in Gods paths.
Her husband and children arise up and
call her blessed. MANY daughters have
done virtuous things but thou excelleth
them all. /" They feel that they are richly
endowed with the inheritance which she
has bequeathed them and are resolved
by Gods grace that they will meet her
in Heavan, where she now is in one OF
the many mansions in her Fathers
house. They hear their Sayiour's voice
reckoning. Let not your heart be
troubled. Ye believe in God, believe
also in Me. In my Fathers house
there are many mansions; il it were
not SO I would have told you. go
to prepare place for you, and if 60
away will come again and receive you
unto Myself, that where / am there we
may be also. For il we believe that
Jesus died and rose again even so them
also which sleep in Jesus will God bring
with Him." so that we sorrow not con-
corning our dear one who has gone, nor
weep as those who have no hope, but
rest in the blessed assurance that we
will meet our well beloved in the Home
above and there will be no parting there.
Mother Garth died at 4 O'Clock a. m.
Aug. 10, 1914, aged 70 years and %
days.
Services were held Wednesday after
noon at the residence on North Try
street, conducted by Rev. ]. R. Oliver,

Illinois and Iowa
Men Find Mecca in
Redwood County
Two Thousand Acres of County's Land
Purchased BY Out-Of-State Farm
ers in Last Few Weeks
MANY wILL.CoME NEXT SPRING
Farms Will Be Used For Feeding
Stock As Well As Grain And
Corn Raising

Many new farmers from Iowa and
Illinois are coming into Redwood
County each week. Within the past
few weeks the Crimmins Company has
sold over 1000 acres of the county's
farm land, all of this going to buyers
from the two neighboring states.
Foremost among these buyers are
the Bruch Brother who were men,
toned in the last issue of The Ga
zette. These farmers, who operate
1,200 acres in Illinois, do not expect
to live on their land here, but have
rented it at s. per acre, cash rent,
to tenants from Illinois. John Bruch,
who bought half section last year,
bought 800 acres more on his recent
visit here and his brother, Henry,
bought half section This land would
be worth $500 per acre in Illinois in
the opinion of these buyers.
Archie Parks, another Illinois farm
er, who makes a speciality of feed
ing cattle and hogs will move here
next March, having purchased the n.
L. Wann farm of $50 acres and the
J. A McGetrick 80 acres. This makes
an ideal stock farm laying close to
Redwood Falls. The Flayety Broth
ers of New Windsor, Ill, will also
take possession of their farm of 800
acres early next March. A. l. Howe
of Illinois has purchased 240 acres
just north of Milroy and Peter Smith
of Illinois has also purchased large
farm in that locality. Both will take
possession soon.
Among the buyers from Iowa is
John Alslat, who bought 800 acres
which will be farmed by his son. l..
NJ. Owens of Burt, Iowa, says he has
been around some and Redwood Coun-
ty looks good to him, so good that
he purchased the 100 acres of John
son land, west of Redwood Falls. Mr..
Owens is a stock feeder of consider
able success. A. J. Johnston, a pro-
gressive farmer from Iowa, has pur-
chased 200 acres in Vail township,
which is entirely satisfactory to him
except that it too far from Redwood
Falls.
G. A McGetrick got frightened for
fear the foreigner" would get all
the good things the county has to Of
fer, so he went to the Crimmins Gem
pany and insisted upon having the
Ben Wolf farm, which he bought TO.

INSPECTOR DRAKE LAYS PLANS
New Furniture And Equipment To Be
Installed; Private Office For Post
master in Front Part of Building

Postoffice Inspector, George Drake,
Of st. Paul, was in the city last We'd
nesday and formulated plans which
viii give the city of Redwood Falls
a much enlarged and improved head
quarters for the handling of Uncle
Sans mail.
The plans as layed out by Mr.. Drake
will mean the addition of the twenty
foot room in the rear of the room
now occupied. The entire fixtures now
IN use will be moved to the rear ten
feet. and the general delivery, register
and parcel windows will be placed side
bv side. making the mail service more
convenient for both the clerks and
the public. A private Office for the
postmaster will be installed in the
front part of the building to the left
of the entrance. A new dumping
table, parcels rack on casters and
a cancelling table will take the place
of those now in use.
The partition which now separates
the proposed addition from the room
now occupied will be partially removed,
making one large room out of the en-
tire floor. The rear room will be di-
vided by means of a steel partition,
a part of it to be used as the dis
patching and separating room and
the remaining space to be occupied
by the four rural carriers. A steel
cage will be placed inside the rear
door, into which the mail from the
midnight train will be deposited, in
stead Of in the lobby as is now being
done. The windows on the south side
of the building are to be enlarged tc
provide better light and ventilation
In addition to these additions, the fix
lures are to be given new dress
Of varnish.
1 These improvements have become g
necessity in order to provide ample
facilities to keep pace with the rapiC
growth of the mail service at the of
flee. The parcels post service ha!
probably played as important par
in this splendid growth as anything
though nearly every branch of thu
business and every class of mail ha
steadily increased.

dred eleven head. This stock was all
purchased at the Young ranch and

J. P. Cooper, Banker and Dennis
toun and David Dennistoun have al
so recently received large shipments
of young stock, which will be fat
tened on their farms during the fall
and winter. The many feeders through
out the county realize that the best
means of converting the immense
corn crop into cash is to convert il
into beef first, and the fattening OF
young cattle will be a popular occu-
patton throughout the county.

Joseph Vogel
Secured Patent
Brown County Youth Gets $4,000 for
Invention Which He Sold to
New York Concern

The story of sudden wealth showered
upon Joseph Vogel, son of Wenzel In
Stately township, as a result of hav-
ing perfected a patent reads so much
like fiction that readers of The Adj
vance will feel somewhat skeptic in
giving due credence to the story, but
it is absolutely vouched for by his
mother, who gave the particulars to
the writer Monday afternoon while
she was in Springfield doing her shop
ping.
Although but little more than TWEEN
ty-three years old, the young man
appears to be of a decidedly inven-
tive turn of mind, his perfected in
vention being machine for corking
barrels and kegs, and which has just
been purchased by New York manu-
featuring concern for the fabulous sum
of $4,000.
About two years ago when the
young man was visiting in New Ulm,
he had occasion to accompany a num-
Der of his companions to one of the
breweries on a tour of inspection, and
while thus engaged he witnessed the
process of putting the corks in the
barrels. The method appeared to him
to be more or less primitive and when
he returned to his farm home in State
| ~ he decided to try his skill in the
perfection of a more modern machine
flor doing the work. However, instead
Iof devoting his entire time to work
lout the proposed invention. he con-
ltinued to do the routine work on the
farm, all the while studying up a
ifeasible solution that would eventual
by lead up to his success as an in
igentor. He finally finished a model
land sent it to the patent Office in
Washington, and last winter secured
la patent on the machine. He was
promptly offered several thousand dol
liars for it by manufacturing con-
Germ, but did not sell his patent un-
